The car did alert after hitting the deer, it just alerted RFK, Jr. to come pick up the carcass and dispose of it in Central Park. That’s the new protocol. 

Then why isn’t Joe Biden in the race anymore? It’s pretty clear he didn’t want to bow out. 

farrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrt

I can’t count the number of times where something mildly insane happened to me and I later on wondered why the hell I didn’t do X, because obviously X would have been clear and reasonable thing to do, rather than Y, which was either somewhat useless or completely counter-productive. Things like this put us in weird…

All I can really say to any crazy new Trump anecdote (just deciding to play music for 39 minutes at a campaign stop, etc) is that boy, America REALLY does not want a female president.

So as I understand it from the anecdote, Trump talked to a friend who builds “the biggest factories.” He wanted to see one of these giant factories, but they’re apparently all in Mexico. Nine months later, there are no giant factories in Mexico because “they” heard that trump is running for president.

ok so I can hit 60 in 2nd, but Im also on the FA20, and my redline is like 6600rpm. So unless subaru tweaked the gear ratios around, im not sure a 2025 with the 2.4L can.

itll hit 60 in 2nd.... probably, ill uh test it when I get off work as its still the same transmission in my 2018.

I suspect that the “robotaxi” we saw was really just a reworking of the Model 2 prototype that Tesla cancelled a few months ago; which means that at some point it had a steering wheel and pedals. 

I’m glad it seems like investors aren’t falling for the snake oil as much anymore, hopefully that sticks and people with money are finally starting to see what most of us plebes have seen for a while - Musk is a rich guy charlatan.

Everything about this makes no sense. That is a terrible form for a taxi - two seater.

The Cybercab looks like they took the Model 3 and the VW XL1 and put them in a blender. It doesn’t look half bad, but it’s a terrible choice for a taxi. “Sexy little hypermiler coupe” would make for a great entry-level Tesla, which is what I bet this was. The delay in presentation was because they had to rip the…

Nothing here is substantial enough to say anything more than “well, how about that” in the tone of your grandma. Those visuals are nothing but visuals. No vehicle will be remotely like what was shown.

Is it just me, or does everything look like movie props???

So the design was made by telling Adobe’s AI to make a car that looks like a mashup of a Model 3 and a Cybertruck?  Cool.  Cool cool cool.

“says that unsupervised FSD will come to current Tesla owners in California next year”

First Gear: Anyone who watched last night’s Tesla event and is an investor should be concerned. From the delayed event kickoff to the poor production values, to the ridiculous claims, it all screams low-rent high-grift. I cannot fathom for me how investors can take him seriously with all his bloviating and “corporate…

You’re seriously asking why the Cadillac CTS-V Blackwing is a good car? On Jalopnik dot com? 

There’s a big difference between taking the engine up to the rev limiter, and actual over-revving which can only really be caused by downshifting.

the engine had been red-lined multiple times
