I also thought that the humor was pretty obvious. It worries me a bit that so many did not.

Did you convert? Google says that $60k is about 84.5k Aussie dollars right now

I’m generally a small car guy, but man does that Cherokee look like a good idea. Mobility in the winter, cool bits in the summer.

I have honestly never seen or heard of such a thing. Maybe they don’t bother trying to sell them in MN, so I have just never come across one? I also run warm. I mentioned driving around in MN winter with no heat on unintentionally. I did not mention doing it wearing shorts.

When is someone going to offer cooled seats? I would rather have a seat cooling option during a MN summer heat wave than headed seats during a sub-zero MN winter cold snap. But, I am also that guy who forgets to turn on the heater if the windows are clear, and gets confused why my windows are getting foggy after I…

When you arrive to work in a warm car, the snow falling that lands on the warm windshield melts or partially melts, and sheets down and collects on the wiper, only to freeze there as the car cools down. Having the wiper out of the way prevents this. No, I do not want to chip my wiper out if I do not have to. It…

Next step: Tesla offers an add on to go next to the built in jumper cables on tow trucks, so they can give a quick “jump” to battery cars who’ve strayed too far.

Getting the loan for my current car through my credit union was one of the smartest things I have ever done. Payments were automatically deducted from my paycheck when it went in, so I never had to worry about it.

How about teal? Too green to be mistaken for an emergency vehicle, too blue to be mistaken for a green light ahead, nobody thinks you’re a hearse from Chinatown.

This sounds like a Buffy the Vampire Slayer plot. Very Joss.

On my stretch of Robert Street, south of St. Paul, MN, the local government had to change zoning laws to stop people from opening more parts and tire stores, so seems pretty healthy here. On the other hand, I do not have an attached garage, and park on gravel, so I ain’t doin’ nothin’ on my little car.

Yes! Winch on the front, hitch on the back, and permanent jumper cables on the other side from the radiator.

If you’re going hybid, definitely two motors in front. I assume it would be easier for them to act like a locked differential when needed. And you will want to make all four tires turn at the same rate at times.

Also, the target audience for buying these cars new tend to hold cell phones up to their ears while driving. A lot.

The old Buick Century that my grandparents gave hydroplaned like a dream...

I am 39 years old and have never lived anywhere other than Minnesota, and I have never had an issue with all-seasons. Except that once I was actually blown off the road by a gust of wind while driving completely responsibly... on some glare ice. (In a sporty little Celica with a very low profile, too.) I look forward…

They bothered to engineer a differential into them, but couldn’t put in gears? A $100 mountain bike from Walmart has gears. It would be even more demonstrative if he could have shown the difference starting with low gear torque, and a higher gear for more speed to better show stopping distance.

I am seeing that, also. Booo!

Could it be that until he filed the claim, he was the one giving them money, not the other way around?

There is way too much of a lag between the flash and the rock breaking up. Delayed explosion? I am confused.
