Instead, the opposite happened, where deaths per capita increased as people were speeding like crazy. The country did finally have the first day (since this tracking began) without a recorded shooting on school grounds, though.

It’s still legal in Mississippi for the driver. A few states allow passengers.

Weird. I suppose I haven’t gotten close enough to a pole for my Ascent to trigger it, but it’s definitely been jarring when it brakes. I do think if you’re going really, really slow that it won’t trigger and requires a little velocity before applying, so that could be her issue. It doesn’t go off when I back up slowly…
Avoiding kids while backing up is honestly the core reason I keep my EAB on. Backing into a car or pole will ruin my day and maybe someone else’s. Backing into a kid (especially in an SUV) is a completely different thing. Even the best behaved kids with the most attentive parents are able to find a way to run behind a…
What vehicle is that? When I go on back roads in my Subaru I have to turn off the EAB before backing up near brush because that will trigger it.
I blame that on regulations. The ability to monitor exists, especially on the types of line that feed power generation plants (I’ve designed those). Relative to the cost of install and value of the gas, it’s not all that expensive either, it’s just not required.
some of the power from the electricity is most likely from natural gas anyways so it’s just changing one power generator for another one.
I’ve never seen any that fully operate using diesel or natural gas generators, just having those generators as a backup during power outages. Part of my job has been sizing and installing gas lines to connect to natural gas systems to feed those generators and I’d be surprised to see anyone that actually relies on…
The super chargers are such a weird anomaly for Tesla. I’ve been part of bid/engineering on some facility type stuff and it was a total mess, but anything for the super chargers, whether a new install or backup power, runs so smooth.
The ad used a dolphin with a horn on it, though, not an actual narwhal.
Even as someone who likes that it will exist, every time a new article comes out I realize that I forgot it was ever even announced. Just feels like vaporware at this point.
Almost every recall I’ve gotten for a car was something like “bolt may need tightened,” “hose clamp may come loose,” or something very basic and non-descript. I’m sure the complexity of cars increases the number of bolts/clamps & how to fit them all, but they still seem to be mostly basic things that need checked.
As someone else noted, this car came from Florida with a new paint job, so was it flooded?
With modern pricing, you’re barely saving any money by going with one that has all usable seats (like the Atlas or Traverse) versus one that has a back seat in title only (the Outlander or Highlander). Going for one that actually fits people and a stroller/stuff in the trunk is by far the best way to go right now.
Many cars have them, but the execution varies. I think the handles with a physical button do it best, since that has tangible feedback, but my Subaru’s handles work really well as a touch lock/unlock. Idk why, but I have all sorts of issues with my wife’s VW while she never has a problem making it work.
I’m no “stick to cars” guy, but this doesn’t even appear to make a sarcastic effort for why it’s on Jalopnik. Just kinda weird being here (I know, this comment is why it is here, but still).
It seems like the only difference is that a dealer will have the build complete and not have to redo it in their system? You can currently go to just about any car maker’s website, spec out a new car, and then search for cars/dealers in your zip code. For my last purchase, I made my build online, took that to Subaru,…
Service companies in that industry are generally super neurotic about safety because many contracts included injury ratios that need to be met. Depending on a few factors, a company can lose a contract for having too many incidents, even if they aren’t at fault for them.
