How do I know summer is here? Because every asshole with a Harley has to unleash an aural assault whenever a stop light turns green.

It’s not a loophole, the whole system is designed to reward views/clicks. That’s where the ad revenue comes from. So, this problem of handsomely rewarding the biggest assholes is unlikely to change unless social media companies are forced to change their algorithms or filter out and remove content that they know is a…

You’re right that normally a BOD would intervene and remove a CEO in a situation like this, but this board is beholden to Elon; so there are no checks and balances. Don’t forget that Musk hand picked the people on the board; which includes his own brother and James Murdoch. 

Yes, that’s what happened when Tinucci pushed back on Musks request to fire more people than the original “10% cut”; he fired her and everyone else to send a message. What I was referring to was the request from Musk to fire additional people from the supercharger team to begin with; was that decision partially motivat…

I’m glad to see Lancia finally trying to stage some sort of a comeback, but man this new Ypsilon is an ugly little car (not that the last one was much to look at). I do mean that in a kind way, like one would say a bulldog is ugly but still lovable.

Isn’t Toyota launching a new GT3 car that is supposed to replace the Lexus RC as a road car? Pretty sure there was an announcement or interview with Toyota execs about that just a few days ago. And Toyota previously indicated plans to use the I6 motor developed by Mazda as part of the Lexus lineup. So the next “Supra”…

Was this perhaps part of motivation to firing the supercharger team? To deliberately slow roll the inclusion of other makes in the charging network?

This actually looks more like a WK2 successor to me than the current generation Grand Cherokee, but the Wagoneer name is definitely there so they can charge a premium.

Those limits are about 4x higher than the US median personal and household incomes in 2022.

Faraday Future: I guess the name is more appropriate than I realized; seeing as how their products seem perpetually stuck in the future, but never make it to the present.

Technically you are correct, it’s the disintegration of critical organ tissue or loss of blood that kills people, which is all caused by the bullets! We’ve found the culprit! Ban the bullets!

Unfortunately that doesn’t work in practice, the police union will make sure he gets off on the charges and then he will just start working as a cop again one town over.

None of these EV trucks are for me, but I do find it interesting that I haven’t heard any of these issues described with the Hummer EV; which is essentially the platform mate to this Silverado RST. Are those two really that different? If I’m not mistaken the Hummer is even more powerful and heavier. 

I know a guy who recently inherited a bunch of land not far outside a large urban center. He just decided a few months ago that he would be turning a large chunk of it into RV storage and use that to generate a passive income stream. Seems like many people who buy them don’t really end up using them all that much; and…

Yup

Hey buddy! I’ll have you know, thems the Dutch flag colors! And I’ll be damned if I let you claim the red, white, and blue for the French! 

He has time to worry about decorative bridge lighting? Doesn’t this governor have an insurance crisis on his hands and an impending natural (and economic) disaster when that next hurricane hits in a few months?

Just drive one and see if you still feel the same way about it. In my area these are loved by all sorts of gear heads; MAGAs included. The Challenger probably has one of the most diverse buyers groups of any muscle/sports car I’ve ever seen. My neighbor owns one in bright orange with the 392 and she’s a police…

Really not that bad. I even thought it was a bit light actually (but that’s coming from someone who had a stage 3 clutch under his left foot for 5 years). I had one as a rental for a week on a business trip to Kansas. The lady at the rental counter let me have it as a free upgrade when I jokingly asked her if she had…

I’m not entirely surprised by this. Cadillac sells luxury cars, aka: expensive cars. Their buyers aren’t as price sensitive as other GM brands, so it doesn’t hurt Cadillac to offer expensive luxury EVs alongside their traditional lineup. The people who still want ICE and can afford a Cadillac also aren’t that…
