There weren’t emission or fuel efficiency laws in 1958, and as another poster below noted that was not crank horsepower like we see advertised now.

I get that this kind of thing is fun for you, but is it really a good use of time to refurb a bunch of ICE components that are just gonna get yanked out in short order when it gets home?

Lots of sovereign countries accept US currency, what’s your point?

Exactly, if a bunch of randos online can figure out how to emulate it in their free time surely the Sony engineers could figure it out much more quickly.

I’ve had both and Culver’s is better, although you’re right that it is more expensive and it also isn’t as fast as What-A-Burger.

While true, I don’t think this applies to fast food. The coastal restaurants get their fish out of a freezer just like the midwestern ones do.

I don’t doubt Tesla could do it if they want to, it’s just that the juice isn’t worth the squeeze. Structural batteries have lots of advantages and they might not be willing to sacrifice those for swapability.

The coasts lacking Culver’s just further reinforces midwesterners’ belief that the coasts are populated by godless heathens.

I’m kinda curious how something like this happens. Does Nissan not do their own testing prior to the official NCAP test?

That was a while back though, and IIRC the battery has become a more structural component of the car since then (as in they rely on it for chassis rigidity). Seems like something that integral to the car not falling apart would be difficult to swap out quickly.

Fat guy Culver’s hack: Order a small cone of custard with the rest of your food, most of the time they give it to you at the pay window so you can eat it while you wait for the rest of your food.

Their fries being bad is probably a good thing in the long run. I’d be there way too often if the fries were better.

Could be part of a larger investigation into who employs them and who decided cramming 25 of them into an Expedition was a good idea.

It’s especially frustrating with the really old consoles where you don’t even have to do “real” compatibility, just emulate the old console in software (like PC gamers do with DOS games for instance). A PS5 has plenty of horsepower to emulate a PS2.

Yes you can. My sister and brother-in-law drove from North Carolina to visit me in Colorado in their Volt, it had a small travel trailer with 2 WR250s in it for the whole drive.

No one needs 26 different kinds of deodorant?

It’s someone else’s fault you lowered your sedan and made it less safe?

I got a ticket a couple years ago for passing someone on the right while he was going 5 under in the passing lane. I gave him a thumbs up out the window as I passed him, the cop who saw me do it didn’t find that amusing.

If there is room to be passed on the right, there is room to get out of the way of faster moving traffic before that happens. This is true regardless of how fast you’re driving, failing to yield the passing lane to faster traffic is objectively bad driving whether a human or a computer does it.
