The BMW roundel is not based on a spinning propeller.

Day 1 as CEO of BMW, I announce... a new car company. EMW. Seriously. Hear me out.

Uhh.... How is it not called "E-Camino"?!

At the risk of being pedantic, Hindenburg is a bad example because it’s problem was specifically that the gas was not pressurized. It was being used for beuancy which meant that it wasn’t that far from atmospheric pressure and somewhat freely reacted with the air. It’s actually suspected that over flight a standing…

I’m in a particularly good situation since I got my loans paid off (thanks, military service), but I’m the outlier for that, with the vast majority of my coworkers and siblings/cousins having to deal with student loan debt. Even a partial forgiveness for them would be a huge boost.

*To be fair*
I can imagine that people felt exactly the same way about driving a contraption that holds gallons and gallons of explosive fuel at first as well.

Bonus points if she does it Fight Club style...

Pogo stick!

I don’t mind it being pathetic considering I get a brand new battery pack.  And it’s not like my one anecdote is systemic of the entire brand either.  Hopefully if someone wrote about how their M5 blew an engine at 65k, people wouldn’t assume all M5s blow their engine at 65k.

I would say that most people who think they can’t live with the Model 3's interior would change their mind after living with it. It’s really not as big a deal as people make it out to be.

neutral: as a motorcyclist, i kind of feel like self driving cars will make the roads much safer for me... it won’t matter how much you are texting anymore, there won’t be any idiots deciding to randomly (and without signaling) u-turn across 4 lanes of traffic in front of me... or forget to turn their lights on at…

They also need to stay with CA if they want to stay competitive with the rest of the world.

2nd Gear:

I can, quite definitively, shrink your margin of error to +20 years - 0

If they bought the truck, they can modify it how they see fit. If they were selling rebadged F150s, that might create an issue if Ford wasn’t on board.

I think most of the IP laws are centered around preserving a brand’s identity and monetary interests. Since Rivian isn’t claiming it as their own design and they aren’t doing anything that will cost Ford any money or business, I’m not sure there’s much Ford can do about it. In fact, a large part of why they’re keeping…

Refuse to care until Patrick Stewart returning as Gurney Halleck announced.

TIL that in college I lived like a Japanese prisoner, eating ramen and sleeping on a futon mattress on the floor.

On a day to day basis, I would say a BEV is more convenient provided you have a power outlet where you park it.

Actually, charging is free at my train station were my car is parked all day
