I dunno, that just looks like an efficient use of the runway.

We have to start accepting that compact SUV’s are really just tall cars.  In fact they are tall wagons.  So basically we have won by tricking America into buying our favorite jalop-vehicle.

It’s ‘annoying’ that individuals who single handedly earn 2x the United States’ median household income don’t receive tax payer subsidies to buy new Cadillacs? 

It’s very cool-looking, but I think you’re getting into an area of diminishing returns with electric scooters of this size. A Honda Navi, for example, is going to get close to 100mpg and costs ~1/4 the price. 

He’s also banking on being on Mars when the world finally implodes due to the action of rich exploiting assholes like him.

In fairness to Elon, he made the assumption that the apocalypse will totally flatten out the surface of the earth so there will be no issues.

Should be the Jetson’s car sound. 

At Tesla, you don’t cut corners...corners cut YOU!

Sad to say, but the owner probably got the best possible outcome there —- insurance pays her to replace a vehicle that has terrifying depreciation. It’s the only way she’d ever get close to her money back. 

I actually like the look of the ZDX the most of any of the Ultium platform cars, but it’s so disappointing that Honda didn’t do more for the interior for this and the Prologue. The difference in layout and material quality between Honda’s modern interiors and GM’s is night and day.

i because apple uses it in their product names so “i” became synonymous with “high tech”

I don’t think it’s a NART thing at all. I thought it was more directly influenced by this particular 412P:

Autonomous Robotaxis- this is how much the US hates the idea of just improving public transit. Like, seriously, you could take a fraction of the amount of cash it will take to develop a functional autonomous taxi and just invest in improved public transit everywhere. Oh look, we’ve made buses and trains and trams and…

A busy bridge in Baltimore collapsed early Tuesday morning following a collision with a cargo ship.

Ford Canada has the Ranger Raptor starting at $80,000 CAD. Jesus. I’d have to buy it with the same mentality that I’d buy Porsche 718; “This is a toy. It’s an $80,000 high-performance toy.”

Now I’m super-curious about how you do “gas-powered church.”

Fisker is a startup, they are going through pretty normal startup problems. Their issue is that instead of a basically empty market, like Tesla had when they were still in ‘startup’ territory, they are competing with most major automakers.

Jalop checklist:

Every miata owner that responded so should be ashamed. Stop complaining, they’ll take it away. Were allowed to have one tiny convertible.

DON’T SPEAK IT INTO EXISTENCE
