There is so much wrong with this study, we could kill a forest writing a report detailing its flaws.

At New England Forest Rally 2019 there was one of those Audis! Though notably missing the light pods.

That’s part of the Deming production management theory that American companies weren’t interested in but he became a god in Japan. But only a part. A lot of the rest is the we’re all in this together teamwork stuff that fit in with Japanese culture, as opposed to American individualism and white collar management vs…

This is design hubris.

It looks like Toothless, the dragon from How to Train Your Dragon. I can’t un-see it.

And at no point do you touch anything made of metal. On many J1772 plugs you can’t even see the glint of metal from the outside, because the chatty and chargy parts are so buried inside.

I’ve been going back and forth in my head whether is selfish, or over privileged. Or maybe being overprivileged for so long in this country has made us selfish?

Is that a logo or instructions?

I’m sorry, but no. You can’t get the smell out of the foam.

This is super cool to see, what will likely be one of the most mass produced modern mid-engined vehicles, in pieces so early on.

The weight they have these down to would make an F1 car designer blush.

The process is quite energy intensive, if you used the fuel produced to generate electricity then you will end up making less than you used up in the first place, it is not a perpetual motion machine.

During the early 1920's most cars looked like they did the decade prior. Like buckets with cloth tops borrowed from horse carriages.

She then switched to trucks in ‘03,…

Where is SBA to tell us that demand is dropping off a cliff?

Audiophiles ruin being an audiophile. You can be an audiophile if you build a good sounding audio system because you honestly appreciate hearing high fidelity music with all the details honestly reproduced. Then your buddy Gary comes over and says something like “ooo but you should really upgrade to lower oxygen…

Shit, I once approached someone I knew because I noticed damage to his truck after I backed into a space next to it. I didn’t feel a hit, but the damage was at the perfect height for the rear bumper. This car was a 2nd time hand me down that was already scuffed to shit on all 4 corners. He laughed and said someone…

I’m going to jump to her defense here. I think she is pretty good, decently knowledgeable, and seems willing to jump in and learn. But she’s also YOUNG. Young enough to not know what she doesn’t know. So I’m willing to cut her some slack. And especially, unlike others around here she seems to actually LOVE cars and…
