the figure I got years ago was 3500 lbs/hr which is 525 gallons, which makes a,hovercraft shockingly inefficient,  perhaps they should have tried an Ekranoplan.

Oil is an important part of the cooling system as well. I wonder what oil levels Top Fuel drag racers run since the engines only run a minute or so between rebuilds. 

That's twice the burn rate of a 747 at cruising altitude.  No wonder they stopped using it

Laughing in 213,000 mile 2003 Buick LeSabre.  My truck also had over 100,000 miles, which was actually low for a then 18 year old pickup.  I figure an older car will have that mileage since IIRC average mileage is 10,000 per year and a newer car with high will warrant a discount  and again you shop condition. …

Didn't Elon do enough damage to Tesla by making them produce the Cybertruck and cancel the Model 2

If Jalopnik gets sold off do they revert to the original mirror shades and lollipop, or does the staff defect en masse to The Autopian?

Mojo Jo Jo?

I feel the only target market for this is circus clowns.

I don’t have anything that exotic, just working stiff grade aluminum for my CX bike turned gravel ride, my MTB and my utility  bike

ND, that's a lot of money for a fancied up Volare without even the meme value of Corinthian leather or the performance of a Lincoln Mark VII

Oregon is hardly a red state, and the Californians are definitely bringing their politics. The same luxury beliefs that made them leave Cali are now wreaking havoc on Oregon, although people have had the good sense to walk back Measure 110 after turning Portland into a shooting gallery. 

Putting the steal in stealership. 

They were trendy with Leftists before Elon went off the deep end  Also my issue is more Californians colonizing Oregon.

Since Fisker already failed twice, why did anyone finance him again? FFS this makes Tesla look well run.

I'm not sure if it's woke or just obnoxious virtue signaling  but a Tesla Model S with California HOV lane stickers,  Oregon plates and a Patagonia sticker gives me the ick. 

In a high trust society these are fine, in most US cities these will be vandalized into oblivion:(

The crappiest actual pickups as distinct from pickup shaped things are the third generation Dodge Dakota and the Dacia Duster because of build quality and dynamics.

What a blast from the past, I haven’t thought about the Cagiva Elefant for years. I’d go for the Honda XR650, you don’t need desmodromic valves for fire roads.

I can understand this, high narrow bridges scare me but I tough it out. Of course none of the bridges in Oregon are 4 miles long. I think the St. Johns Bridge is the one that gets me the most when I ride a bicycle on it, even the Marquam and Fremont aren’t as scary on the Providence Bridge Pedal.
