Cconsumers don’t care about all that. They care about how much it costs to get the car fixed. which is the point here.

Dude, you have a LOT of work ahead of you...

This is almost a carbon-copy of my dad’s story.

He was given his 1927 Model T as a graduation present in 1946 from the town doctor who he worked for throughout high school. She felt that dad needed to have a car to drive to and from college (and to eventually take his lady-friend, my mother, on their first date.)

Dad…

When are non-tech people (like the executives making the design decisions for products like the Tesla,) going to understand that RFID and other passive ID technologies ARE NOT SECURE AND NEVER WERE INTENDED TO BE SECURE.

This is why credit card companies are moving away from magnetic stripes and adopting active…

The obvious solution is to replace the MacBook with something that doesn’t spontaneously combust — like a Dell.

How much was the owner fined for not keeping it in his garage?

Ok, two weeks ago, this was packed to the gills:

No room for golf clubs, dammit!

Still has a Fiat engine -- no bueno.

i went there a little over a year ago to test drive a 124 Spider. (I got the Mazda instead.)

I almost bought a 124 Spider from these clowns. I’m REALLY glad I didn’t.

You can’t drink what you can’t find.

Super-heated steam is no joke.

No.

*I* was the fireman. ;)

Its much more than the TV footage though. The stewards also have acfess to ALL the car’s telemetry, including wheel speeds, slip angles, steering angles, throttle and brake, etc...

Elizabeth, you REALLY should have known better. This is obviously Edd China’s famous (in car circles,) driving sofa. CBS didn’t have a clue and neither do you.

Perhaps Jezebel or Kotaku beed something written for them, hmm???

I wouldn’t bet on it. The trailer made it look like the GT was Shelby’s project. In reailty, It was developed by Lola for Ford and initially raced (unsuccessfully,) by Holman-Moody. Ford later forced the project onto Shelby American (who didn’t want it,) in order to make the car faster and more reliable.

I was the fireman on a VERY short-lived enduro team.

Infrastructure costs to effectively implement this would be enormous, and the system would only work for semis and other Very Tall Vehicles.

Far better to design replaceable battery packs and swap depleted units for fully-charged units at a fuel station — just like you do with your propane grill.

Robotic systems could…
