“In fact, I went down in a helicopter with him.”

Yeah! What does a guy who worked in an...auto parts plant know about the automotive industry?! Who does this guy think he is, just waltzing into the UAW...29 years ago?! Surely he only received his position by being appointed by the...direction election of the union members....

I hope tomorrow goes better for you, buddy. 

HOW DOES THIS KEEP HAPPENING???

Who said that removing lidar and radar from the car was a bad idea when tesla did it?

Santorini residents should be issued hunting permits, allowing each adult to harvest up to 3 cruise ship passengers annually. 

What a deeply stupid approach to voting.

“Something very fishy [is] going on here, because I’ve never seen anything like this happen before,” one man said.

my father-in-law damaged a quarterpanel on a parking bollard at Trader Joes, then today he backed into a retaining wall by our driveway and tore a chunk out of the sidewall on a rear tire. I think they need a smaller car...

Way to go! Get rid of one of the MAIN reasons why people fly Southwest! I’m sure that will make more people want to fly their airline...

I’m not saying it’s not wrong to think about sales, as any company that plans to stay afloat, should have a healthy business model. However, with the XM, it’s nothing but a massive steaming fresh

The modern leather-lined crew-cab pickup truck. It’s neither a good “car” nor a very good truck, except, maybe, for towing. It’s too big, too inefficient, handles poorly because of the high center of gravity, and doesn’t offer secure, weatherproof storage (in its bed). If I had to narrow it down to one, it would be

The problem still is that the market for affordable, small cars has never gone anywhere. They’re just choosing to ignore it because it’s inconvenient to increasing margins. But they also don’t want anyone else to take the market they’re leaving behind. They want it both ways, and that’s just not how the free market

Yep. Doesn’t matter what you think about China, their labor practices, or how they can unfairly undercut domestic automakers. It is eventually going to be worth it to them to go through the steps necessary to sell cars in the US.
