On the other hand, refusing to use one of the most common and efficient communication methods available is not a great look. I’m sure there were lots of people at one time who refused to check their email and insisted that people call them—most of those people are no longer in the workforce. By refusing to text, you…

Yeah, a human driver might not be fooled by that 3, but you could definitely make a fake speed limit sign that would fool them (assuming the road was at least somewhat manageable at that speed)

The simplest answer is usually the correct one.

Back when I was young and trying to autocross, this old guy showed up at an event. He was pushing 80. He went around the track without a single bit of tire squeal, no nothing. It was BORING to watch. And he was a full second faster than anyone else. Whatever it takes to be fast mentally, he had it by the bucket full.

I learned when I tried my hand at autocrossing. Being great at car control is not the same as fast. The really fast guys don’t seem to need good car control because they don’t get the car out of shape in the first place. (Admittedly, this is the wet on slicks, which is means you will get crossed up regardless.)

This comment thread somehow contains a little sliver of every thread of jalopnik at once.

Fella...... if you got a problem with the results of a scientific study, take it up with the scientists. I’m just here to report on the data that was found.

Actually what could save Harley is making mobility scooters for their aging fanbase to ride on inside of the Walmart.

I really really like the design of this electric scooter. If they would sell it as a reasonable price, I would consider buying one. $5 says it will be an least $10 grand, which will be a hard pass.

The main problem is total weight that the unit can carry after batteries and distance on a full charge. Having run a garbage company in New Jersey, this is extremely important. We pay per ton dumped, so we want the maximum load it can carry and some transfer stations and or land fills can be 30 miles (or more) one way…

From the citation of Thim:

1st gear: I hope when the eventual film of this is made, they get Rowan Atkinson to play Ghosn.

“It’s an engineering triumph the same way that a machine that can instantly cover a corn dog in 24K rose gold would be: technically impressive, but a fundamentally stupid and useless way to shout how rich you are.”

Every day Jason finds a new and impressive way to make me incredibly proud to work with him. I adore this…

Thinking the same thing. potentially a very profitable and untapped niche market.

For the longest time I did not, but I expanded the business and I do operate in Canada depending on the vehicle and the budget. I have an agent that lives in Ontario that knows the system up there.

So, how are Torch's not the official Jalopnik unit of interior vehicle measurement?
