Highways do have sharp left turns (and rarely, but sometimes lights). Highways are defined by having cross traffic. Freeways do not have cross traffic, and therefore don’t have hard lefts.

For those who are having trouble understanding this, here : a regular Mercedes, scraping tyres on both sides and only just missing the poles. The actual restriction is narrower than the posted 7ft. The sloped kerb is what is causing everyone to hop-up and hit the poles. Turns out most cars are now using the bus lane

They don’t actually shift to neutral while coasting - the engine goes into decel fuel cut, so you end up motoring the engine via the drivetrain while saving significantly more fuel than dropping down to idle in neutral.

Coasting while in neutral uses gas, coasting while in gear uses no gas.

On a manual, not really, but on modern cars it actually uses more gas - idle speed vs. deceleration fuel cutoff.

I wouldn’t say he’s keeping his mouth shut. He and his team were crying to anyone they could after Silverstone. Then after Monza he sounded like the spoiled brat he usually appears to be. To each there own I guess.

Wait a Belgian-Dutch robot devoid of emotion doesn’t want to be televised?

Yah. If you take away the “rah, rah, hate the rich” thing, a sentence of 4 years in jail is the STIFFEST penalty for involuntary manslaughter in Cali. And probation for a first offense is a standard penalty.

Huh.

As we ramp up and try to electrify our entire automotive/trucking system, we will need lots of things like lithium and other hrs to find materials. Why are we putting limited resources into one Tesla? There’s enough battery power in one Plaid to run 3 perfectly quick cars. Are we going to eventually tax power

I say this as someone who likes driving fast, who owns fast cars, and who is generally skeptical of adding more bureaucracy to our lives:

There is nothing cool about sTAnCe nAtiOn.  Never has been.  

The owner was so embarrassed, they went to a show specifically so lots of people could see it and take pictures of it!

Of all the cover cars to pick, did you have to chose a “stanced” Subaru with the extreme camber, stretched tire look? It’s straight up awful and anyone rocking that should be embarrassed.  Most of the other cars pictured in this article were worthy of the cover shot.

I have no idea if the paint actually works this way or it’s a marketing gimmick but in nature most blues are produced by molecular structures that work to absorb, scatter and redirect the other frequencies rather than absorbing and reflecting photons of different frequencies by changing energy levels.

Woody Guthr-E.

This could be marketing gold.

the one that looks a little weird”? As if! The regular Miata looks nice, but the RF could be in a museum. It’s easily the prettiest car on sale today.

ND Miatas aren’t “slow.”  0-60 in under 6 seconds is not slow.  It's not melt your face fast, but it's quick enough in public roads to get in trouble.  You do need to use the full rpm range, which a lot of people are weirdly hesitant to do these days.

Yes, tired of Colorado being a cross section of these people and van-lifers constantly accidentally setting forests on fire or completely destroying natural sites (whether it’s constantly rolling off of mountain trails or overwhelming hiking trails with their dogs shitting everywhere)
