Why do people think Aluminum doesn’t oxidize?  I mean, it won’t rot away like steel, but it’ll still get surface “rust.”

Yup, the general Shinkansens just run on a wider, higher spec track.

Don’t forget the asterisks.

Is this the next “Porsche Carrera stuck in the butt of a BMW i3" thing?

Didn’t an engine actually get built for it? Like they made it to the point of starting a prototype but then nothing else?

I guarantee this was listed as an electric vehicle by the auction company.  Most used Mirais for sale right now are.

Yes. A friend/classmate of mine in college had an electrolysis unit in his back yard. He had purchased, heavily modified, and installed a hydrogen injection system in his Ranger, and got great mileage on “mixed” fuel. The hydrogen unit was mounted in the bed.

This is basically the only answer that makes sense. Either they thought it was a Prius, or they thought is was an EV.

A co-worker recently bought a General for his farm.  The thing legitimately rips like a RZR, but it has a dump bed, so insurance classified it as a farm implement.

As it’s parked everywhere except on pavement, I can only assume it’s leaking every possible fluid at a significant rate.

I guess it’s a good thing they’re reducing weight, lowering the center of gravity, and improving stiffness, like the article says.

The exterior release? Can’t water cause that to open? Maybe they feel the charge ports are a lower risk if opened than the luggage.

Am I the only one who feels Porsche is releasing this vehicle in the opposite manner as they usually do?

These are paraphrased lines from the Kayne West song “Gold Digger.”

Well, it’s pretty simple.  If you’re the kind of guy who’s seen on TV any given Sunday, or maybe even wins the Super Bowl, you don’t want to drive off in a Hyundai.

The one David pointed out was toward the bottom of the LC barrel, but there are plenty of nice and more recent examples out there for under 30k.  It’s a good place to start.

As his daily and only car?  Yeah, it’s an absurd recommendation.

A used Acadia or Land Cruiser were the only two realistic answers. A more recent and pretty nice LC can be had under 30K.

I remember a few years ago when the taxi companies were protesting Uber, and the headlines around here read along the lines of the taxi companies having no right to claim territory, and that Uber/Lyft/whatever were the future, and to get over it.
