Ok, its the train wreck effect, I had to look. My highlights from the comparison list. These are just hilarious until you realise this is in a document they submitted to an actual court.

There’s also a lot of other demand for chips as the economy comes back up, so the carmakers that cancelled their orders are now still lagging in the production queues. There’s also the basic issue that carmakers had to shut down a lot last year and are behind this year, so there’s still lingering effects from that in…

An (almost) positive article on those 3 appearing on Jalopnik?
Will wonders (almost) never cease?!?

Say what you want about their schtick (it can get a bit grating) but the Top Gear Mongolia special is amongst the best automotive TV in years.

Doctors should worry about the hysterical COVID people after they do something about the hysterical people that are worried about:

Given how the more expensive cars are shifting to hybrid or EV, they are less likely to need to keep selling the cheaper and less profitable subcompacts.

2nd gear: You hit on something here that I’ve been think a lot about lately. There are people who, beyond a reasonable level, are petrified of being around people. There’s a pretty wide variance, sometimes depending on where one lives, of what is “reasonable” but I am wondering how long it will be until the…

Lying about being part of a protected class doesn’t magically make you part of a protected class. A judge would toss your case out of court so fast once you admitted you lied about being part of the class.

On one hand, it kinda shows that there’s a CEO that actually knows his business and wants to “get his hands dirty.”

I don’t dislike people who like Musk. I dislike those who blindly (and rabidly) defend him, his actions, and Tesla, without regard to the truth, facts, or whether it’s morally, ethically, or just plain wrong.

1st Gear:

Announcing something to happen in twenty years time is not doing something, in political terms, Boris Johnson has booted the issue so far down the road that it is guaranteed he’ll be out of office, either through his own voters losing patience or just genuine retirement, by the time any blowback comes due. It is a…

It is astounding just the level of selfishness doing something like that, compounded with a lack of situational awareness.

The battery issue has been traced to faulty cells produced by LG Chem in South Korea, at the same factory that produced the faulty Hyundai Kona cells.

When the awesome downsized 1962 Dodge wasn’t selling they put a 1961 Dodge front clip and interior on the same-body 1962 Chrysler to make the 880 sometime around mid-model year. The early 60's were really the peak years for Chrysler dashboards and steering wheels.

The cords provide sufficient flexibility without adding redundancies to a car that already cost a lot to make. Maybe you’d put one on the other side, but overall, by the driver’s door probably makes the most sense. 

The previous renter left dog hair and a used rubber in the back. We may not know exactly what happened during that rental, but those are some deeply troubling clues.

And don’t forget the wonderful monstrosity that was the A57 Multibank engine — produced in response to a time-critical requirement for a rear-mounted engine for the M3 and M4 tanks; it was a 30-cylinder engine that was essentially five 4.1-liter L-head inline-six engines arranged around a central shaft. In the…

You want something, Mahindras got it:
