From the articles it does not appear to be a highway mode. Cheat engages at startup and is disabled once the steering wheel is turned. Note the reported memo with the “100%” and “0.01%” references.

“Because when a court rules that you’ve violated the spirit of a law, it’s the same as having violated the letter of it.”

I once bought a new, end-of-model-year 1979 Chevette. To replace my Pinto... I believe the somehow the assembly plant had managed to hold the engine aside for a Lemon yellow car, as at 85 miles on the odometer it ate a valve while I was slowly backing out of a parking space at Kmart.

>It’s always hot. And hard. I’m an old basement couch kind of guy.

Cadillac has ventilated, not actually cooled seats. Big difference.

I guess they think Black Label is working for Lincoln. Of course, this leaves Cadillac looking as confused as ever, but then maybe that’s the point. At least, unlike Cadillac, some Buicks can have actually-cooled seats.

So do Tesla dealers take trade-ins? If so, what’s to stop them from offering higher values there instead of discounts?

And meanwhile, the C350e has disappeared from the mbusa website...

5th Gear: Autonomous Trucks VS. American Jobs

All the excuses about the Autopilot not seeing the trailer are just that — excuses. The tractor-trailer was crossing in front of the Tesla. And that meant that for a number of seconds before the trailer was in front of the Tesla, the tractor was. Granted, it wasn’t a 10-wheeler sleeper cab, but at some point it was…

Self Driving Car + Apple Maps = All The Fails

“Liang faces a maximum penalty of five years in jail.”

A Cable Company buying F1? So we can expect annual price increases, and no more single-race tickets. You’ll have to buy packages of races. Races will be scheduled to start within a 4-hour window, but they will start late or have to be rescheduled for next week.

But how does that design extend to the SUVs that Cadillac needs? Or does showing yet another sedan instead of a concept SUV suggest Cadillac thinks sedans are still the big thing well after Johan took over?

Unless you drive on I4

No No No No NO. Don’t make it a Cadillac because Cadillac won’t have a clue about marketing it.

The Envision was designed here, built there. 170-200 thousand sold there, some now being imported here. Fully loaded under 50K, with a pretty impressive array of tech including bits you can’t get on a GLC.

Fixed Roof Coupe

I had a 99 convertible. Build quality was worse than either of my C4's. Got hit hard at an intersection when I floored it to get out of the way of an oncoming cellphoner, and the traction control all but shut down the engine.

There may be more blind spot or miscalculation to consider. The truck’s cab made it across the intersection fully. And that’s probably a good 20 feet of more of length down in the just-above-ground to tesla-windshield-height zone moving rather slowly across in front of the tesla. Even if the truck’s cab was white,…
