Yeah, 13 miles of range is like 3-4 kWh of energy. That seems like such crazy high power consumption for the infotainment computer.

I wouldn’t put it past Tesla to be crypto mining on their customer’s vehicles.

This stuff is going to start decreasing the resale values of Tesla vehicles. A consumer, in order to be informed about their used car purchase, will have to know the build date of their vehicle to find accurate specs. This tied with Tesla’s history of removing features that were already paid for once the vehicle

Or for an example everyone can picture in their heads, the Munster Koach.

“The vinyl roof craze on cars from the ‘60s to the ‘80s is pretty baffling until you think about it in this context...”

Hang on, let me pull out my tiniest violin for the rich guy who isn’t happy with the off road vehicle he bought to drive to his mountain chalet.

Can we just bask in the awesomeness that is this guy having a 1989 Swift GTi? Never mind that he’s the original owner.

Just minor note, the 7.3 powerstroke do have EGR.   Everything did by then.

It was probably bought by someone with more money than brains, and they’re most likely going to send it to Earth Roamer or another expedition vehicle up-fitter to turn it into an overlanding rig. If it didn’t have the 7.3L and 4x4, it would have pulled maybe $10,000 ay most.

See-THIS is what stopped me from purchasing that Bugatti Type 57 SC!

I had an 80 Zephyr Z7 coupe with the split vinyl roof with the 6 cylinder auto. It was the most gutless vehicle I’ve ever owned but I loved it. It was also the most gorgeous metallic blue with white vinyl.  If I saw one like it I’d go deep into debt to buy it.

It is said that there are two hard problems in computer science: dates, naming things, and off by one errors.

I see that picture and I hear fart can exhaust.

Workaround: set the year to 2011.

David, this article reminded me of the crazy story Don Sherman wrote for Car and Driver in the 80's after they took 4 “sport sedans” into Mexico and hit a cow among numerous adventures. Your adventures are epic as theirs were.

They’d need to utilize a grappling hook in order to corner

It’s a very a old-school conservative masculine thing that real men should never wear sandals, except at the beach. It’s bizarre. Real men also never drink from straws, use umbrellas, or eat vegetables that look like penises.

I don’t remember who said it, but someone said of female politicians, “If a woman is smarter than him or he doesn’t want to f—k her, they won’t vote for her.”

They appear to be outdoors, and they presumably live together. Do any mandates require a mask outdoors, when with your partner?

Did you know Vise Grips make great nail pullers? That rounded jaw is designed for it. If you have just enough of the shank sticking out you can even pull headless nails. Grip on and roll the pliers on the head curve. I’ve never encounterd a nail I couldn’t pull with one.
