I realize you’re a moron, but you can scroll up and read how the math works.

Amazingly, you want to lecture someone about common sense - you’re telling me here that if something could have been done, it would have. Then below you talk about how if the market demanded it, it would happen. Can you make up your fucking mind?

It’s fucking math. I’m sure you passed at least one of those classes as a kid...

BigBlock440: Makes broad generalization that is demonstrably false.
Defenestrae: Demonstrates falsehood.
BigBlock440: Cites narrow examples that barely supports the argument behind the prior broad generalization, and ignores the blatantly obvious advances in fuel economy and emissions due to modern technology that…

I could do 91.8977% of my driving in a Nissan Leaf, and I would only need to charge it every 4 days. The problem is the other .081023% of my driving still needs a car capable of going until it’s out of charge, then recharging in about 5 minutes or less at a charging station, of which one is located roughly every 5…

That hasn’t been true since the 1970's when carmakers were slapping smog pumps and egr valves on everything after dropping compression ratios to 8.5:1. Actually, it wasn’t even true back then, it was just that Detroit’s unimaginative solutions to the problem of emissions was to address the symptoms - unburnt…

The question you asked was “how much will this take out of EVERYONES POCKETS”. Let’s do some math.

Let’s pretend the total effort requires $1Bn (a bullshittingly astronomical figure, but I’m making a point here) in R&D. When truck makers amortize that R&D expense into the product costs, that becomes $1Bn over 5 years,…

Poor suburban bastard getting triggered because their safe spaces are proximal to this mans property...

I have three observations:

Very little. The auto industry will feel it first. Transportation companies will feel it next. Costs will be spread across the board. In the end, a 25% reduction in fuel expense will more than cover the increase in cost over the long term.

I think before you launch a left-handed attack on capitalism, you should get your facts straight. Average fuel costs for 2011, 2012, 2013 and 2014 were all higher than 2008. Fuel surcharges have always been charged in the transportation industry.

Well, they’re both responsible.

Careful... this site is overrun with technocrats. (Most of whom vote Democrat).

What should be equally alarming is that 7 centuries later, we still don’t have an effective treatment for the plague. Many people of European descent carry a natural immunity simply by virtue of their forebearers holding a genetic lottery ticket when the plague hit. For everyone else, if you test positive for plague,…

Any reasonable person reading this article would have already known that the author was trying to illustrate the risk of further marginalizing already marginal communities as an irrational-yet-likely to a public health emergency.

Still driving my 1992 D-21 pickup. The KA24E engine cranks out as much power today as it did 34 years ago, and slightly more torque than spec. The AC will freeze your ass out. This is a truck that spent the first 15 years of it’s life hauling a 3,200 lb camper around the country under it’s first owner. The max towing…

Does being towed count?

This is totally not right. Why are you people focusing on Trump and not Hillary? What happened to equal time? You should also have an article with Mom (Tress MacNeille) voicing all of Hillary’s stupid shit. Such classics include:

I would respond in kind about you jerking off to Clinton, but lets be honest... nobody can fap to that.

He violated Federal Aviation Rule FAR 91.9. So yes, he did something illegal. And to answer your question, no, a cop doesn’t have to know if you’re doing something illegal before they arrest you. They simply have to have probable cause that a crime has occurred or is likely to occur, and that you’re connected to it.
