    The purpose of a business is to make money, profits, for its owners, the share holders. Anyone who uses the word “greed” for this is labeling themselves a left-wing extremist. Do they think this goes unnoticed? In this case the derailment happened about 24 hours before Mr. Marquis published this article.  That means

    Gee...had two of those ca. 1975 - 1985.  Does the wood come with the electrical gremlins and fluid leaks? 

    Yes. Drunk driving will cause more collisions but deaths will be due to a variety of other factors. Here in Texas, many fatalities’ proximate cause is not wearing a seat belt, regardless of the cause of the collision.

    I do not understand the “race sanctioned (tire) pressures”.  One would think that tire pressure was clearly a team director/driver decision based on handling and wear. 

    Cool! I like that an automaker may finally have to pay up for lying, cheating marketing BS.

    I had a Porsche once. I do not remember turning on the radio. Driving it was always interesting and entertaining. I don’t understand bothering with “infotainment’, phone calls, or electronic directions while driving such a car.

    They are all paved!  Yuk. 

    Being a 1960's British sports car guy, I consider not having a stick shift on a 2 liter sports care to be a sacrilege. That there is even an automatic transmission available is a sad testament to what a bunch of wimps modern car buyers are.

    By far the most obnoxious event in EV-land here in Austin, TX is a huge local supermarket replacing close-up-front handicap spaces with EV charging spaces. Tesla drivers here are unusually aggressive drivers and then the jerks get to park where old folks used to. I am quickly becoming very intolerant of EV’s and their

    My 1969 XK-E had a 3-ear adapter and a lead faced hammer.  Worked every time.  Only us XK-E owners know the secret code “UNDO”.

    It is not really the Jones Act that is the problem. It is the unions’ strangle hold on ship building in the USA that makes it much too expensive to build ships here. U.S. ship’s crew salaries are not the killer.

    “F1 Power Unit Regulations” and green posturing have Moss and Fangio spinning in their graves. The teams will have to buy billions of dollars of carbon offsets just to neutralize their private jets and air cargo charters. And, the events have huge carbon footprints

    Yikes!  I cannot imagine paying a premium for a Japanese car.

    Ah, yes...Citroen has been the market leader for 100 years, always out ahead of all other makers technologically, in styling, in markets....

    Sandra Bland committed suicide in jail long after the stop and being jailed.  She was in jail because none of the friends she called would bail her out.  She was stopped for failing to signal but arrested for having an expired, out-of-state driver’s license. 

    It is G-Wagen.  They do work about as well as a Land Cruiser at only twice the price. 

    If one accepts that filling up a 20 gallon gasoline tank in five minutes is standard performance then it will take 7.5 megawatt electric service for a neighborhood convenience store to achieve standard performance “filling up” Tesla 100 KWH batteries in six Teslas at the same time.  That is the electric service needed

    Why the parenthesis “incorrect load-carrying capacity” as if this were some sort of allegation. Tire load range is a design element and is clearly stated on the door placard. It is a matter of evidentiary fact in the case that Hill had put cheaper, to0-low load range tires on the his truck.

    “Inadvertently gone live...”?  HA!  Planned and executed by a PR genius.
