I had no idea that these features were on a subscription basis. I guess the tech company mentality really does dominate at Tesla. That's crazy, man. And brilliant.

By far the best piece I have ever read on any Gawker site. I cannot overstate by how far a margin, either. Nothing else comes close to this. This piece made me a regular reader of FA.

This and I’m not sure I follow the analogy anyway. Delta and United do not manufacture planes. So them working together with government entities is not the same as car manufacturers doing the same. Plus, as you pointed out, they only do it when responding to some sort of bad news.

Wow most successful Reggae song! That’s crazy. Reminded of how the first “rap song” to top the charts and the first “rap video” ever played on MTV was by Blondie. Wow.

First time this joke has worked in a long while... WELL DONE

It’s amazing how absolutely ridiculous that Concorde looks! But I never noticed at the time...

Ya each state is different.

I bought a house from my grandparents. That’s sick!

Could be much more complicated if it was financed out of town. Plus most banks don’t actually hold the physical title anymore. When you pay them off they just send you a lien release and tell you to go have a paper title made. This means a several day lag. At some point though, like Doug says, you just have to trust…

I sold a bike with a payoff once. Luckily, it was financed at a local credit union, so I just had the guy meet me there. He gave me cash, I paid the bike off on the spot, they handed me the title, and were even nice enough to notarized my signature as I signed it over to him. Easy-peasy

Cars on their last legs? Not always. These were all beautiful cars that they ruined for fun.

This actually works, I tried it! A ricer recently pulled up next to me making all sorts of god-awful fart noises while I was in my Challenger. Rather than skid sideways into him or oncoming traffic (what my instinct was to do), I just kept the clutch pedal down and pressed the gas pedal at the same time, which let out…

Sometimes low mileage adds a lot of value, especially in collector cars. Other times, like this one, it just means that the owner didn’t get his money’s worth out of the car, and adds not much to resale. These cars could in the near future become collectible, and maybe even valuable, but today is not that day. CP

Three to four years is just an eternity to wait. That’s one entire trade cycle for most people. So if you want a 3, you should buy a completely different car today that you’ll be ready to trade (do they take trades?) when your new Tesla is ready. People don’t plan that far ahead or wait that long for anything. Most of…

Yep. I am constantly seeing this pop up in my newsfeed and have to inform people that it was clickbait disguised as an April Fools joke.

True, but without the steam I don't think you'd ever build up enough energy to crush that stone. You're operating a many ton machine with the same strategy as a baby walker, it's not going anywhere except maybe down hill.

Holy crap! That is either the best or the most piss-poor suspension ever, I can't decide which.

Exactly, motorcycles do not have blind spots. On a bike, you only have to worry about being in other people’s blind spots. Build me a system that broadcasts my presence to surrounding traffic instead.

First thing that came to my mind. I mean, those two giant rollers have to be incredibly heavy and have unbelievable rolling resistance. With this setup a simple pebble in the way (of which there would have been many since the vehicle predates paved roads) would create an insurmountable obstacle. And from that seating…

I don’t know the history of that vehicle, but at the time it was selling it was located in Germany, so that’s a whole different deal. Assuming that Arnie imported it, the engine and restoration could have been done here. Nothing preventing that. We can still do LS swaps to all our cars here in Merica.
