Brown RWD wagon, no range anxiety at all, pure EV up to 130km/h (80mph), top speed 246km/h (152mph), faster than any Tesla on track when driving more than one or two laps (or half a lap of the Nürburgring). Air suspension, ‘Autopilot’, Parktronic, ventilated seats. Modern design. And costs, what, half the price of a…

I’m not saying it’s bad for what it is, it’s just that that doesn’t make it cool. The new Prius will get better mpg and outsell its rivals too, does that make it cool? What does it need to be cool? I don’t know, but the model S doesn’t have it. What it had was loads of novelty, which you mistook as cool and has now…

Nope, I’m just a realist with an accounting degree. I think we are at the point where a second, *modestly priced* electric car can make a LOT of sense for the average middle class American family in some areas if they have a regular commute. If I had a commute, I would have one in my fleet now, probably an electric…

You are certifiably insane if you believe that.

Dear Volkswagen,

Also the fact that that the price of gasoline will almost definitely increase again.

It’s all aerodynamics. No car designer wants those ugly things, but as long as the majority of people care about economy and efficiency, they’re here to stay unfortunately.

It’s not a movie, but the Doctor Who episode The Girl Who Waited, when he slams the TARDIS door in old Amy’s face I felt like I’d been physically slapped.

“Crab People! Crab People! Look like crab, but talk like people...Crab People!”

I admit I dont know much about baseball. Since he’s in the batters box, isn’t it free reign to sling strikes by him while he does that?

Not really sure what the pitcher’s waiting for while the batter’s dicking around IN THE BATTERS BOX

Truth. Had to stop watching because it was getting cruel.

I worked on the show, full disclosure. MTV does not pay them that much money. Although, it is a half-truth - they do get a lot of money, but it’s not coming from MTV. The real cash comes from the tabloid magazines and TV interviews they make. US weekly will pay them major cash for bikini shots or a cell phone video of…

Not getting the right tool for the job. Yeah, you can replace a Subaru lower control arm bushing at home, but using a press (which is probably at a shop) is significantly easier and probably doesn’t involve a Sawzall.

Don’t you see the similarities here, though? We’re both not what society wants us to be for our genders, we both get marginalized and made fun of if we bitch — women get called Amazons, men get called Napoleon, you get the gist. The battle is not tall women vs short men. Apparently, it’s tall women and short men vs…

Fiesta is fine, it just means party after all. And given what the Fiesta is like to drive, I’m inclined to think it’s a reasonable name. Nothing wrong with the Fit, better than Yaris after all, either for that matter - it’s fit for purpose. The Aspire though? And Festiva.. ...and the Jazz.. ...yeh, those are crap.

And…
