I hate exhibitionists. Consent is important.

After a lifetime of going to car shows and drooling over every nice C2 I saw, I never once had an owner brag about their Vette having the big tank option.  This disappoints me.

The most surprising thing about this entire situation is that a Fire Captain of all people, in Texas of all places, wasn’t in a raised truck so tall that the drive-thru worker would have needed a ladder to see this guy’s lap.

Jokes on VW and Tesla, because I’m opening my Terafactory next week!

I’m guessing light beer, cannabis and Teen Spirit.

I remember in the 90's installing CD players in cars that came with their own little remotes. It was truly absurd. I think the idea was that the remote was for back seat passengers to be able to change tracks, but, seriously... what driver is going to give hi back seat passengers control over the music?

Remy from Ratatouille outcooks all of them. He could serve Hannibal Lecter his own liver.

I generally gravity start my 26 year old Ranger. Let it roll back the driveway about 2 feet and pop the clutch. Doesn’t work too well on fresh snow though - - -

I remember that system from “Flight of the Phoenix”.

On this side of the pond any 60's mustang in any form costs about 20k€. And this is a wagon. Personally I think it’s paintjob and little tlc away from nice summer cruiser.

It’s a famous Dadaist installation piece about avoiding exposure to cultural influences. Popularly known as:

Certainly, Musk and Trump has some things in common, like ego and self promotion, but beyond that, I don’t see it at all. 

No, if Musk were like Trump, PayPal would be bankrupt, Tesla would be bankrupt, and SpaceX would be bankrupt. The difference is, Musk is a businessman and Trump is a money-launderer.

I couldn’t agree more, aside from the whole “lack of a suspension” thing. It’s been 20 years, but I had a warehouse job where we had a fleet of 5000# Baker electric forklifts. They were fast and torquey with a low center of gravity. The forklift controls worked while the lift was in motion, so the engagement level

Attention Tesla Owners. There are reasons to criticize your cars. There's reasons to criticize my car.  There's reasons to criticize Every Car. Get Over It. Sincerely a 20 year mechanic who's on alternator #3 since September. Thanks Rockauto (sarcasm)

I’m not sure whether all this is amusing or depressing. The idea of a “biased” media has been around for decades (if not centuries, if one was so inclined to break down the definition of media), but the self-fulfilling propagation of “echo-chamber” media has really exploded since the internet went public/live.

I’ve seen Ozark. I know what this is about.

I would expect the person jumping out of that would be wearing no fewer than three pairs of wrap around shades at the same time, an uncountable number of visors and have their upper body tattooed to look like a “TapOut” t-shirt. And for them to fall on their face when they hit the ground.

Egon: The structure of this roof cap is exactly like the kind of telemetry tracker that NASA uses to identify dead pulsars in deep space.
