C’mon man this isn’t hard. It’s called per capita.

“Lifetime of the car” for the vast majority of US car buyers/lessees is when the warranty runs out. I’m not sure if Tesla is different in that regard, but typically it’s 100K miles for most manufacturers. By that metric never having to change the pads is a very valid claim.

Oh Lord, really? The entire insurance industry marketing agenda is predicated on excusing moronic behaviors as “driveway moments” (oh shit I ran over the kid—hey, driveway moment!”) and car ads are Chevy “real people” and fucking “grounded to the ground” inbreds.

Brake FFS

No, that’s the precise point. The combination of regenerative braking plus a smaller rotor will be equivalent to a larger rotor in every braking situation, including panic stops.

CES is now very automotive-focused.

Did they repurpose one of those old blue plastic CRT iMac G3s?

“Failed state?” South Sudan is a so-called “failed state.” Mexico adamantly isn’t. Have you ever visited Mexico, or are you just one of those morons that believes that Trump bullshit?

Poorer countries have less abilities to fund law enforcement, and corruption becomes rampant as a result.

You’re thinking of Tajikistan, maybe. Kyrgyzstan isn’t an oppressive regime like that. Their biggest problem is corruption, and judging by the vehicles on display these guys are either bigly corrupt or (more likely) bigly corrupters.

It’s on the Chinese border, not Eastern Europe.

It’s on the Silk Road. People have been transhipping stuff through there for five thousand years. At one time they had chrome-wrapped pedigree camels.

I didn’t say anything about your pal’s car. Ask the cop what he meant, not me. He was probably telling your friend not to be a cowboy waving guns around. He’s either going to kill someone or get himself killed over a car. It’s his “baby,” not his baby. Not worth it.

The Crossfire coupe has always been my guilty pleasure.

Worst wreck I was ever in we hit a bollard as full speed like that (the driver momentarily fell asleep). Impact took place a bit more towards the wheel, away from the center, so when the car flew up in the air like that it rotated and landed on the roof, then slid 50 yards. Also tore off the front quarter of the car…

28 more hp per every colored light.

What is he applying to the cut edge of the metal? Is it some kind of sealant to prevent rust? Or some kind of adhesive?

Then you should be in jail or a mental hospital. 

I don’t know. It’s just pretty funny to me. Victimless crime, for the most part, and hella fun.
