Boost is increasing the pressure of the air going into the engine to above atmospheric pressure. With a supercharger this boost is created by powering the intake air compressors with the engines driveshaft. With turbos this boost is created by utilizing waste energy in exhaust gasses to drive the compressor for the…

Precisely! I wish I could give you more stars. Most people that aren’t professionally trained pilots don’t understand the technical aspects of Autopilot in aircraft. Without that technical knowledge it can be very easy to interpret Autopilot as autonomous. It’s about the closest you can call something without calling…

It you are going to mane fun of people who obsess over build counts don’t use the ZL1 as an example. You can read a small piece of the story of the ZL1 here on Jalopnik.

That still seems like double dipping. The tax should be calculated on the cost of the goods, not services. Let’s say you buy a car for $20k. Your trade-in has a value of $5k, and you owe $10k on it. That would be a loan for $20-$5k+$10k or $25k, however the sales tax should be on $15 else you are being taxed for…

In other words they are double dipping on taxes because you were taxed on that $6k the first time you bought the car.

Normally, yes, concept cars are used to convey a new design language because that is what ultimately differentiates one car from another in the eyes of most people. However, this is more of an engineering concept. The interior is essentially a cut and paste of existing interiors so while there was some work done it…

It’s $20/month for unlimited Wifi.

The article makes it sound like they are using the same block with the phrase “the same “compacted-graphite iron block” as the 2.7-liter EcoBoost.” The press release is worded much more clearly.

Go ask GM what happens when you utilize a gas engine block for a diesel engine. Actually, this looks to be pretty awesome. I wonder what they are expecting for sales volume.

More often than not I will still see a Cavalier/Sunfire on my commute or while out running errands.

I met the guy that owns this car a few years ago at a coffee shop in Paducah, KY.

Residuals look artificially low on EVs because of the $7500 tax credit that you mentioned. The residual is compared to $35k while the car is actually a $27k car due to subsidies.

Counterpoint, all that stuff in the back of the trunk is now a full further back because you have to reach over the tailgate to get to it.

I recall the manual for my lawnmower with a Honda engine giving the gas recommendation as a RON rating instead of the typical (R+M)/2 rating that is shown on the gas pump.

You make it sound like people are doing the “zipper” well before the end of the lane. That is causing the backups as well.

 Be the king of the mall parking lot with the tightest turning radius of any 3 row SUV when equipped with the optional rear steering assist option!

I feel you. I am still rocking the switchblade for my 2013 ZL1. I still get the letters in the mail that make it sound like I am in grave danger, but I, too, have tried numerous ways to kick my key while driving and for the life of me can’t figure out how someone did it.

It was called a 5.0, but it wasn’t a 5.0. Taking the bore and stroke into account it comes out as 4.94 L or 302 ci. The engine was never known as a 4.9L but it was known as 302 prior to Ford calling it a 5.0. It would however misrepresent the engine to call it a 5.0L next to a 4.6L if you are wanting to represent how…
