Give me a cabover pickup. Just enough cab to stuff myself in with my legs for a crumple zone, 8 feet of bed out back and the overall length of a family sedan. Use the whole floor for a battery, plop a motor at each end, and make it stupid fast. While we’re dreaming, I’ll take a hose-me-out vinyl floor and lots of…

Definitely the worst thing I’ve done, definitely the most inconvenience caused over the longest time - I shaved my door handles. Buckle up.

My first car and first fun car were both the same and wildly different. First was a hand-me-down 1984 Audi 4000S 4 cyl, 4 speed auto, FWD. It was in impeccable condition until I got my hands on it.

It’s been below $2.80 by me in Jersey for a while I think. I don’t look much anymore, the vast bulk of our household miles are electric now. I have a few gas vehicles still, but they are toys so they get filled very infrequently. This whole ‘what’s the price of fuel today?’ thing is really goofy once it stops being…

Why can’t we get a shorter cab and a 6' bed in an EV pickup? I know people want this minivan layout. I know regular and extended cabs don’t sell. I know all the reasons. But come on!!

Are you saying you spend zero time during the week to get that thousand miles worth of fuel? I could do 300 miles a day, 2100 miles a week in the EV without stopping anywhere at all and taking exactly none of my super precious time to fuel my vehicle.

Yep. My “315" mile Model 3P will do about 275 miles driven like you’d want to drive it. Most of the year that’s 250 miles more than I need, but the ~300 miles is nice on long trips. More charging options and a bigger buffer for unplugged overnights and more remote destinations. It’s also important because that 300…

All the Wrangler complaints look so silly to me, even if you never take one off the pavement. It’s not made for road manners or fuel economy, who would expect those things? It’s made to a) shred trails and b) shed the roof and doors and be the most pleasant thing in the world to drive on a nice day. And I say that with…

I’ve only been riding for twenty years or so, but I’ve never heard of this. The wave I give is entirely dependent on what I’m riding and what’s going on in the moment. I’ve given every wave from none (sorry, I need my hands right now) to a big ol’ up in the sky full five fingered wave (my hands weren’t on the bike…

Easy. Two door mk5 Rabbit.

Are they expecting that many golf balls up there?

I pay $0.11/kWh at home. Most Tesla Superchargers are $0.35-0.45/kWh. If it were between the ‘gas station experience’, and a standard row of superchargers, I’d save the money.

My stepfather, one of the blandest, most uncool guys I’ve ever met, had an absolutely rad 70-something C3 Corvette with t-tops and big, chrome sidepipes. It smelled like mouse nests and I loved it. He dropped me off to elementary school with it a few times and I felt awesome melting my shoes getting out of that thing.…

That guy was such a toolbox. Just seeing this gif makes my eyes roll so hard I’m worried one will fall out.

Cybertruck aside, I’m with you. I can’t stand to look at these GM twins.

Mission accomplished!

I’ll take mine in the Performance trim please:

Just realized I’ve never actually seen the interior of one of these. That dash, yikes.

I like this idea a lot. Like the auto up/down window switch, half a pull for the electric popper and just a full pull on the exact same handle for a mechanical release. You’d get more accidental mechanical openings from passengers unfamiliar with the car, but it would be super intuitive in a panic situation.

I can’t wait to watch this. I won’t do it in the office, this deserves five minutes of dedicated peace and quiet.
