Navigation is the worst part, but even using the radio is worse than it needs to be. The worst part is that it’s sluggish and unresponsive, and hard to find settings in. Although you can find your way around, the lag between touching something and getting a response is enough that it engenders extreme anger when the…

I use Snipping Tool daily - I sure hope that Snip n Sketch is going to be as easy to use, or it’s back to Greenshot for me.

A large portion of 80s and early 90s Honda OEM steel wheels were 13".

Not likely- the old Sync 2 was made by Microsoft and it was indeed hot garbage. I’m depressed that I’m stuck with it forever on my MY2014 Ford.

Would that be the very same “Big Oly” that was stolen in the original Gone in 60 Seconds (with curt cameo by Parnelli Jones)?

Seriously. Being enthusiastic about this is like assuming that Renault’s takeover of AMC was going to result in delightfully quirky French cars of the future and a steady future for the few good American cars that it still built. Instead we got old boring French designs of the past and an immediately shaky future for…

I’m glad that you’re memorializing the Icon creations on Jalopnik (the internet has a longer memory than most of us), because I think there is something about them that adds to automotive history. Even though the money is huge, I can’t say how I would do it otherwise- it’s part of the quest of updating a historical…

To be fair, with laptops running Windows 10 S, you can lock down all installations except from the Windows Store, so those are nowadays quite easy to support.

Excellent news!

What more do you want out of a machine?

20k is not a lot of units, and I’m seeing multiple commenters say that it’s not sustainable to keep it up, but I just want to ask- why not? What would prevent Ford from keeping this sucker in low-level production for another 5 years? If it’s still steadily selling, and sales are only declining very gradually, that’s…

Amen!

Plus, there’s a move to an “open layout” instead of the cubicles found in the old office, “collaborative work areas to reduce the scourge of closed-door office meetings,” and “bottomless cups of free gourmet coffee.”

More charging stations are a very good thing. Progress still has to be made in this regard. It seems almost controversial just to say that, since many EV enthusiasts have decided that we’re already at the point of perfection and if you want anything else, it’s all in your head.

3 is the eleventh commandment that God couldn’t fit on the stone tablets.

Exactly x2. The buck stops with management. They lay out the line, they ensure the parts availability and provide the tools the workers use, and they hire and train the workers. They set the quality standards and they tell their workers exactly how much to care about quality on a daily basis, on a continuum from “as…

It’s not clickbait when the hidden detail is actually interesting.

Shows how little I know- I haven’t bought any Subarus and didn’t realize that this was a systemic problem.

That Aveo steering wheel though.... it is hard to look at.
