In the end, the old lady was ALSO charged monetary damages for not properly taking care with a hot beverage (she shared blame per the court). That part usually gets overlooked...

The 379 number is euro numbers, the US version will clock in at about 320 miles range.

Unfortunately, according to the spy shots the 6 looks NOTHING like the concept. So much so that they had to redesign it while still in development based on the bad feedback from customers. At least now it looks less than a revamped Sonata.

What do I want to know? What’s the fascination with Jalops when it comes to putting tents on the roof of the car. I tent camp once a month, on the ground. You can still have all the features of rooftop camping, just without the need of a...checks notes...ladder to enter or exit the tent. Need to hit the head in the…

For those interested there is a manga that was written that takes place in the Astro Boy universe. It’s a gritty murder noir-style mystery with big Blade Runner tones. It’s called Pluto and has call-back to events and characters from the Astro Boy story (it’s based on an Astro Boy character).

It’s called Pluto. A must…

If they take off the over-stylized rack and ladder on the side, this thing would give some serious “Honda Element” vibes. Compact yet boxy enough to be useful without being gigantic.

But sending even more trillions to the top 1% in tax breaks so they can buy more trips to Mars is OK, right? PS - those breaks already expired for you, but the top 1% gets theirs for another 5 years. Awesome.

His family ties to energy companies are pretty well documented.

And yeah, Manchin has a yacht. 65 feet long, named Almost Heaven, cost $700,000. You do know all this is public, right? PS - he also has a houseboat in addition to the yacht and Maserati SUV. And even though he claimed to have put the businesses into a…

That’s not his real beef. He and his whole fam are industry insiders (he’s all up in coal’s business). He’s a republican in Democrat disguise. His state is at the bottom in every index, yet he has a yacht and a Maserati...

If there’s anyone who represents “let them eat cake,” it’s Joe M.  A real garbage person.

I would say the Polestars.  Only for the fact that they are still making sedans, in a world where everyone and their sister is building a compact SUV as EVs.  I’d like to reward them for keeping the sedan alive (although a real wagon would be fine too, make mine brown).

This or the KIA EV6 GT. Well, at least there will be more than 5 EV6s made, plus it will have more power than the Polestar.  But sedan vs SUV.  I’d wait for the sedan version of the EV6 if they make one bigger than the one planned.  Likely not, since sedans are being cancelled.
Hmmm

Well, I mean he’s technically right. You do know about Lawrence V Texas (yes, that state called Texas) that wanted to outlaw being gay (anti-sodomy laws). Thanks to Texas’ bigotry, the Supreme Court ruled in 2003 that anti-gay/anti-sodomy laws were unconstitutional. But fear not, bigot, not only is the now…

At first, I thought this was another Lucid...

As a driver of three diesels, including a 535D, BMW diesels certainly don’t sound like diesels. I also own TDIs - and they sound like a school bus mated with a powerstroke.

The inline 6 diesels are smooth and quiet...

How did you forget the Kingsman church fight scene???

Well, to be honest, the Supra (and the prime) isn’t really that fast. Hell, my 2014 535D (diesel) nearly matches it 0-60 (5.7 vs 5.8). And the hybrid I mentioned comes pretty close (5.7 vs 6.1) and the M35H came out...checks notes...10 years ago. OOF

Both Porsche and Infiniti built hybrid sedans that were FASTER than the gas versions. For a while, the Infiniti was the fastest hybrid.

I was going to mention the downhill in neutral thing as well.

I drive diesels and was told that doing that uses more fuel than just coasting in gear. This is because most modern (diesel) engines cut fuel when coasting and let the momentum keep the pistons moving. While in neutral, the computer needs to feed the engine…

Remember, the Kia/Hyundai/Genesis EV have heat pumps to regulate the battery temps, so while you lose a little range due to temps, it’s not like the old day of the Golf and Leaf that had no heating/cooling at all and destroyed the range...

Funny, when the first Ioniq (the hybrid/EV hatchback) was released in S Korea, they also had issues with the DSG transmission used allowing the car to roll back on an incline. Same issue, same company, different reason...
