Um no, a signal light does not give the driver the right to cut in, drive through or turn into anything.

Exactly, just because someone put their blinker, that doesn’t give them free reign to just change lanes when they feel like it

I see it, it’s an SUV. They aren’t invisibly cloaked. Why should they have to announce they are there? To give a heads up to bad guys? I guess our armed forces should wear bright orange to let everyone know, hey we’re coming!

Cut off the vehicle to get into the middle lane, then proceeded to cut off the cop to get into the left lane.

Of course the X-Class would do well here in the US. We already have Platinum’s, Long Horn’s, and High Country’s with all the luxury and the ridiculous prices. Throwing a capable MB option in the mix would pull a lot of customers looking for that prestige. We have lost touch with the purpose of a truck. These trucks…

CP at any price. This may be the ugliest truck on earth.

“Too big to have a manual?”

NP. It’s a manual 7 series at a pretty reasonable price and I can feel like the guy from the Transporter, what’s not to like.

Maybe, but it does need the torque curve fixed, or a bit of a bump up in power. It basically feels like it has turbo lag, without the turbo, there’s almost no pull until 4k then it feels perfect. I know what the car’s all about but, it just bugs me to no end.. Lol.

regardless, I’d like this Yaris as my DD or winter…

So they can take a crappy car like the Yaris and put a proper 200hp supercharged motor in it, yet the GT86 is stuck with a wheezing “200hp” motor that barely puts 170 to the rear wheels and they refuse to add forced induction from the factory.. this car just makes me sad, I love mine, but the fact they’ll do something…

This. I have no idea what he means. Doesn’t he understand what “Formula” refers to? It’s like going to a spec Miata race and complaining that all the cars look the same.

Counterpoint - you don’t know what the fuck you are talking about. From an engineering standpoint, it’s pretty fucking incredible that all of those fins and channels on the front wing have a specific purpose. Have you see the fluid models that show how airflow interacts with a rotating open wheel? Or how they optimize…

An airplane needs enough lift to get it up into the air. It doesn’t need to produce as much lift as possible to push it harder up into the air.

I don’t think they ever have. They post article after article complaining about one car winning all the time, and put on rose-tinted glasses for 35-40 years of F1 history when exactly the same was true. Red Bull dominated 4 years (I know there was some competition for 1.5 of those years), Ferrari has dominated,…

Clean-sheet formula racing is an oxymoron.

I’ve been following Jalopnik since 06-07 and I don’t recall them saying anything positive about F1.

It’s a race car. If masonry brick was proven to be the perfect aerodynamic shape, they’d make them look like masonry bricks.

They’re going to do every single thing they can to extract as much performance per square cm, looks be damned. Makes sense to me. You don’t ask the fastest female runner in the world to get a…
