it doesn’t appear that the 2019 prototype Cybertruck size would fit in an average garage

Building it into an airplane would be more efficient, but you lose the VTOL aspect.

Seems like there would be a market for fitting out older Cessna Caravans and the like with RV accoutrements, where you aren’t getting a private jet, but something remote researchers or explorers could live out of while on an

It had a full bathroom with toilet, sink, and shower:

That is, unless you are not some nut who insists on owning and maintaining a car older than that.

This is Shilling, after all. He’s not going to stop being an idiot. 

This looks like it drove straight out of Cyberpunk 2077, and that’s not a bad thing. 

I still think the whole active thermal issues are way overblown.

I’ve had two Leafs: a first generation 2016 we bought in 2018 with 30k miles and a 2018 second generation Leaf we bought new.

E36s didn’t have a colorized roundel in the steering wheel. It was just molded into the upholstery covering the airbag.

This gives me great hope for selling my ‘95 M3 coupe someday.

Nobody working at home needs NIST traceable certificates. Save yourself $60 and get the standard Mitutoyo AOS calipers. The batteries last for years. I use mine nearly every day, and I think I’ve only changed the batteries once in 10 years. I 3D printed a battery holder that slots into the case to store spares for the

I saw this ad too and immediately thought it was scam, but I messaged the “seller” asking for images showing the inside of the car, and if the missing body panels were available. They did actually read the questions, but they deleted the ad themselves shortly afterwards.

Eh, I think Munro pushes snap fits so much as most engineers don’t even think of them. Of course it’s not the be all and end all, and of course there are lots of places where fasteners are the best option, but I think engineers often default to fasteners prematurely without considering other options.

Also, Munro is

Haha, I actually went into the semiconductor industry as well. Pays very well and my work is varied. 

It’s amazing to me that for something as ubiquitous and essential to our daily lives as the microchip is, very few people actually understand how they are made.

No, people would absolutely still hate Tesla, Musk or not. Considering how often brodozers roll coal over my Leaf for no reason at all, there are plenty of people who just hate anything new.

Ironically, my Leaf was built in Tennessee, while many of those lifted trucks were made in Canada or Mexico...

If you enjoy cars as a hobby, it’s best to keep them as a hobby.

Having personally hand-dug a 50' retaining wall footing, I can assure you 1000% that this would have helped.

My backyard is inaccessible to standard Bobcats, and a trencher can really cut right the base of a steep slope like I needed. This would have been perfect. 

I just checked, and it’s $99/month + $499 for the hardware kit to get running. Where is this “terminal in excess of $1000"? Is there other hardware required to get that number?

Good grief. You realize this is targeted to rural areas where they still have dial up or DSL AT BEST, right? But yeah, screw having options right? Better to have ISP monopolies that can charge whatever they want in areas where people have no other choice.

Have you actually removed bolt-on fenders? I have, and yes, while the fenders “bolted-on”, getting access to and actually removing said bolts/clips/screws was a total pain.
