Flake calcium? I don’t understand.

Yes it does.

Stow & Go is still one of the better auto innovations of my lifetime. I wouldn’t give up all that storage space for the daily chore of remembering to plug the thing in every night. Especially considering that hauling things is a van’s job, and gas is currently a little over a buck. But others may see it differently.

Can't you buy an entire Vette AND Karma for that kind of money?

Dealers are required to check your name and info against the OFAC (Office of Foreign Asset Control) list. If you are on the list, you have suspected terror ties and it would be unlawful to sell you a car. Dealers must also comply with countless other government regulations, including certain aspects of the Patriot Act.

Interesting. In Ohio you don't walk out of the dealership with the title. The dealer is required to have it transferred into your name, then send it to you later.

Your state may vary. I think Michigan has an archaic system of transferring title where the same paper title is actually physically transferred from person to person. In Ohio, you could never get the title transferred into your name with an active lien on it. So there’s no risk to the buyer of getting a title with

Amen! I'm amazed at how many people trade in cars at the dealership where I work, and they don't have the title. And they never bothered to get the lien released on the loan they paid off in 2008. And they look at you like it's your problem.

For that matter, why are brake lights the same color as tail-lights?

I’m sure it’s worth something to someone, but it’s not worth 6 grand to me. This thing would need to be sub 3 Gs to even get my attention, and then we'd have to haggle.

The Ford engine plant here in Lima has a “foreign” lot. The problem is that I’m not really sure what a foreign car is anymore.

I think this battery cover is the ugliest part of the bike.

I did not even notice that! Trippy

But it’s coming from the a/c condenser. Should be covered.

How many years is the warranty?

Exactly what I came here to say. That is very poorly worded...

I guess?

So it will be Genesis/Hyundai/Kia/Drive Wise now? Seems like they're adding new brands quicker than GM was dropping them during the bankruptcy.

This makes sense. So far everything billed as a “Tesla Fighter” has not been in the same marketplace as the tesla at all. I think they've proven an upscale market for electric vehicles, and this seems like a good fit for MB.

And any actual, competent technician would refuse this job.
