Sorry but the Ioniq 5 also have the pixels on the wheel...

Not where I live, but hey...it beats having a car that has a “turtle” light (because, SLOW), LOL

And I just sit in my nearly decade old 535D, giggling like a school girl over having nearly 500 Lbs/FT of torque on tap and still getting MPG in the 40's.

There was someone years ago in the SF Bay Area that drove one of these that I’d see on my daily commute. They had some kind of “CONCEPT CAR” window sticker across the rear glass.

I’d always mumble to myself that it’s not a concept car, it just wasn’t great/didn’t sell enough for people to remember it...

This was a weird thing to see. How many of us can recall pics of US Bombers like the B-17, returning from a mission with 75% of the plane torn to shreds and still making a landing, yet one hit sheared the body from the wings of the bomber.

In fact, one B-17 had a Messerschmitt Bf-109 collide with it in a similar…

Musk:  No low ballers, I know what I got...

Ah, correct, it’s the debt burden - it was already over 700M/month before Musk.  Twitter was bleeding money already.

My question is how does this handle the fact that there are no real gear shifts in EVs. It’s like the pedal has a percentage pressed and that corresponds to the speed.

My C6 corvette moves at freeway speed around 1600 rpm out of 6,000 (20% - 30% throttle), an ev may be at like 80% throttle at freeway speed. Will these…

I’m sure this has to do with the interest payments needed for twitter. Isn’t it like $1 billion per month just in interest? Does this mean he’s looking to dump twitter in a couple months (unless he can turn a profit from it)?

On a good note, I think all of us know the value of whatever it is we buy loses a ton of value…

My 9 year old 535D has an option to turn off the main display, leaving only the speedo/gauges in front lit.  But it’s in the options, you have to dig for it.  Audi also had the option disable the main display for less distractions...

Did you just say Kid Rock has more “shit” than us? And you know about his shit? Are you his personal shit inspector? And you want to compare it to other people’s shit? Do you pick out the corn kernels when you inspect his shit? LOLOLOLOL

There’s a reason they don’t call you guys “IQ-ANON”

Your village called, they want…

It just shows that even the richest man (**on paper apparently, LOL), can’t afford to buy either common sense or thicker skin.

How does this Karen even run a company let alone several?

Just take the loss like a big girl, Karen.

Set to be cancelled and replaced by an EV with an even number...

You mean the gas-powered cars that have already been cancelled or have been marked to be cancelled and replaced with **GASP** 2 sedans that are even numbered and 1 odd numbered SUV and another odd numbered one planned? And more on the way? Those cars?? FYI, the k5 is set to be cancelled, and the k9 is no longer sold…

Just an FYI, Hyundai/Kia naming scheme uses even numbers for sedans (Ioniq6) and odd numbers for SUVs (Ioniq5).

Note, Kia considers the EV6 (even number) a sedan even though it’s very similar in layout to it’s badge-mate Ioniq5.  The EV7 will be Kia’s SUV (rumored 3 row SUV).

Hybrids and Diesels.

Hear me out before you light the torches and grab the pitchforks. If it wasn’t for the VW scandal, diesels and hybrids may have saved us from the gas crisis we seem to have every other year. The smaller (2.0L) diesels easily get 50+ MPG, and the larger more powerful ones (3.0L) still manage to get…

There is a reply to Hale’s tweet that basically said “You either are getting paid more, which means they HAD THE MONEY BUT DIDN’T WANT TAYLOR, or you’re also getting screwed...”

I think this point is getting missed with all the drama, plus she can’t say because of the NDA. Either way, this will just be like role #700…

Yup, it was Audi A8 sized, for half the price. When I sold it back to VW because of the Diesel scandal, I kept the trunk carpet (with the Velcro built in). I tried putting it in the replacement 535D, and the VW truck carpet was like 2 feet longer than the 5 series trunk. I’ll miss that, but happy with double the power…

Yup, my NMS Passat TDI had a 800 + mile tank range, with a 16 gallon tank...
