What if it’s Ann from Visa Mastercard Account Services calling about my extended car warranty?

Other then the possible violation of HIPAA laws with a patient being on a video call without knowledge, I have no problem with this. Traffic court is a joke and if you really did something wrong, they should have booked you then and there, which I think means you end up in an actual court and not traffic court.

Ironically, it was a ticket for using a handheld device while driving.

Toyota announced a dedicated EV platform called the e-TNGA in Dec 2020. It will be shared with Subaru and Daihatsu. The first vehicle built on this platform will be a Toyota CUV for Europe. It will be a 2022 model and revealed to the public this summer.

Nothing from Honda or Toyota, which is crazy to me. Yea Toyota has lots of Hybrids but the lack of a full EV is a shame.

What does the government forcing the Cherokee off of their land over a century ago have to do with a car name in the 21st century

Where? No, seriously, I haven’t heard of any mad natives until last week when it supposedly became offensive.

It most certainly is a negotiation. I’ve worked with an Indian tribe and they’ve become very adept at playing the victim card. Usually it’s a shakedown for a payout; then they start to infighting over which of their own factions get it. See casinos, Keystone XL Pipeline, literally any government social program and now…

I can’t believe you’d recommend Jeep profit off the name of Mexico and her people.

If it can’t read them, then this is the sort of behavior I would generally expect without it hard braking as it amounts to collision avoidance. That being said, it had plenty of clearance behind it to do that.
If it CAN read signals, then I honestly don’t know how I’d expect it to behave.

I’m torn. One the one hand, the Autopilot drives like crap.

In her case, AutoPilot probably saves a life or two every time she gets behind the wheel. 

Does Tesla’s Autopilot recognize other vehicle’s turn signals? Legitimately asking, because that can make a huge difference.
But this is absolutely the system not performing anything life saving imo. Honestly, I probably would have taken over prior to the split to ensure the car went where I wanted and then re-engage.

Probably so the driver can walk in, not duck in. There would probably be a measurable number of concussions-per-day across the fleet with a standard door frame.

You want to maximize interior space and visibility; massive upright windshields are great for that. You also don’t care much about aerodynamics because they are typically used in slow speed environments. There really isn’t a downside beyond probably being kind of expensive if you have to replace it as well as doofy…

This is almost M/Real AMG performance at a price that is one tier down from M/Real AMG prices.

Is it just me or does this announcement just bring a giant yawn? I’m sure it’s a hoot to drive, but in the realm of new cars, it’s a big yawner to me. Show us your EV already.

“This new name on the IS implies that there is a standard IS500 and that this model is an F Sport version of that model.”

It just hit me, this is probably the swansong for the UR group V8s in non-trucks.

Everything from here on out is going to be a V35 V6 or a variant of the V35.

When I buy a new (or used) vehicle, I email my Insurance agent the VIN and he adds it to all the other vehicles on my policy.   Nobody has ever asked about registration, what kind of plates it has, hell even if it IS registered.   They take my money to cover the CAR, regardless of the plate that’s screwed to it. …
