We definitely need an English-style motorcycle licensing standard in America. Anything that forces a beginner rider on a small motorcycle, limits to periodic upgrades as experience is attained, plastered with notifications that scream “I’m a beginner” on the bike, and doesn’t allow them to look cool (“fake it ‘til you…

Wings hold a lot more than engines and flaps; in flight, wings are holding up the entire plane.

100% agree with the mandatory inspections but I would prefer that they were more stringent. the NY inspection is a joke. plug in the scanner to see if there’s codes, take off one wheel to look at how much brake material is left. that’s about it. they don’t care about rust. they don’t care about leaking oil. they don’t…

It’ll have a range of 18,000 miles on a single charge.

the roadster will go through 3 million tweets of hard testing before its released to the public. itll be fine.

I mean lets be honest this was ALWAYS going to fail.  Even if it got off the ground and that was a BIG if, the only people who could afford to live there were those billionares.

Now there is a poll about Tesla investing in xAI to the tune of $5B. I guess he saw the stock price down and needed to do something.

What about a V10 that could kill you?

Also, worth noting a lot of the handling woes of the Viper have been cured by modern tires. Tires have come a LONG way in 30 years. 

Chrysler was able to wrangle subsidiary Lamborghini

NP, these consistently go for the high 30s/low 40s in good condition and this one is about as clean as you could ask for. The yellow seems to be a fairly uncommon color too, as I don’t think I’ve seen another one like it.

doesn’t believe in the “cult of personality”.

And now Musk has reneged on his $45 mill/month to Trump. His “reasoning”? He doesn’t believe in the “cult of personality”.

NP on this snake. Looks really clean and new tires are nice. Don’t like the aftermarket spoiler, but otherwise I like it.

i’m not married to apple car play. I run Spotify and Google maps and that is basically it. If those apps run natively inside of the car’s screen that would be fine with me. The biggest issue the internet data, I don’t want to pay for a seperate phone plan for my car. and if i have to connect my car to my phone’s hot…

I’m definitely in the camp of “infotainment should not cross with vehicle control”.

You can’t tell in a normal car no matter how golden eared you think you are (assuming a decent bitrate anyway), and most newer cars will play some of the lossless formats anyway.

I have hundreds of CDs and I’m still salty about them being driven into obsolescence along with players in cars. My car has a CD player and it gets used. As for streaming, I’m still too pissed to engage. This is definitely my old man yells at cloud moment.

How about we just stop making the shitty infotainment systems a proprietary and integral piece of the vehicle so that we can go back to replacing the things with aftermarket systems that work better. 

You know he does have a point about leaving one screen to do vehicle functions. It would be amazing if something as simple as a button located to the left of the steering wheel could open that frunk in one simple push! Seems so obvious but alas that’s just a feat of engineering we can’t accomplish

Unless it changed for the 2025 model year, the Touring level trim of the Outback comes standard with a CD player tucked in to the center console.
