That’s true, but real excavator enthusiasts know that the 288 comes standard with Drift Mode for doing sick donuts. It’s also 700 tons lighter than the 293 so it’s a bit more nimble on those tight mining roads.

Let GM run their business as they see fit. Otherwise, prepare the government coffers for another bailout in a few years. 

REALLY liking where Rivian is going. I’ve also heard that they are super great people and they seem to know what they are doing. I really hope it works out for them.

Nokian Haveafajitas earns you as many stars as I can give you.

Add the Tesla 3 and S along with the rumored 4 door Mustang...

This is seriously impressive!! Thank you for helping to get this the attention it deserves. These kids built an incredibly complex machine in a short period of time. I hope every single kid on the team gets picked up by a major car manufacturer and is given the respect and recognition they deserve.

I’ve been meaning to look in to aluminum undertrays more. Thank you for the reminder!

I know the feeling. I finally know why some cars have a reverse-lockout feature... I only wish my 500 Abarth had one.

He said “forget that 7 is there” There was no mention of a deliberate action of cruising in 6th on purpose. Just forgetting that you have another cog to use since most of us are used to driving 5 or 6 speeds.

Yep, I’ve found myself in both circumstances. Cruising in 5th in my Focus RS and trying to find 6th in my 500 Abarth.

Thank you, I came here to say that.

Golf Alltrack all day every day. The manuals are hard to come by, but they are out there. I actually regretting getting a Focus RS instead of an Alltrack. I could have saved a lot of money and had a much more comfortable daily driver...

Don’t care, still want one...  I’ve decided that I need a second home somewhere outside of the US so I can have cool cars...  

Raphael gets it... The TSX is a great choice. As are the Buick and Audi suggestions below in the comments.

I like it in my Focus RS, I think it’s because the wheel is nice soft grippy leather and it has a very quick steering rack.

I am not opposed to always on headlights. I’m not sure if it’s necessary, but I’m not opposed.

I like that just because nobody has raised their hand, that everybody just takes that at face value. These could be closed door conversations covered by NDA.

Neither Apple or Tesla/Musk would want that. Apple would want full control and have the Apple brand be at the forefront.  Musk would never allow either of those things to happen.

Agreed, Ryan wrote off the sovereign wealth funds, but those are actually 2 decent options.  I can especially see the appeal to Saudi Arabia.

I really wish this had slotted in closer to the Audi RS3. A $60kish car is closer to my reality that a $75kish car.
