I wasn’t intending to put words in your mouth. I see and know a lot of people who refer to the NRA as a terroristic organization, and my point still stands. I want to make it clear that I am not a member of the NRA, however I have friends that are and have been for decades. These are the same people who always lock

This motor isn’t tuned for peak horsepower. It’s the low and flat torque curve that gives a luxurious and effortless drive. Horsepower is just a side effect.

Even the ACLU fights certain laws that aim to make it more difficult for certain people to get guns. Are they a terrorist organization?

Yes. Let’s blame the organization that actively teaches and promotes gun safety.

It’s annoying as hell when you need do get something out of the car in the garageonly to realize that you have to go back in the house to get the keys. My wife’s 2014 CR-V does it.

 Precisely. If a product is safe and legal to use you shouldn’t be able to sue the manufacturer for misuse by yourself or others.

If you want to go that route then those of us who have never put anything less than 93 in our cars must be Gods. Why settle for 91 when you don’t have to.

What about a Lexus that shares underpinnings with a Toyota, an Acura that shares underpinnings with a Honda, an Infiniti that shares underpinnings with a Nissan, or an Audi that shares underpinnings with a SEAT or a Skoda? Nearly every luxury manufacturer sells a car that shares a platform or parts with a lesser

GMC exists to allow Buick and Cadillac dealerships to sell trucks without making them Chevrolet dealerships. It all comes down to franchising laws.

That is precisely how it works in Kentucky. When you get the tax bill for your vehicle registration there are a couple of flat rate line items for the plates and stickers, but then there is another line item that is a percentage of the car’s value. The value is based on average mileage cars from that same model year.

A 2004 Tahoe has 2 rows and can seat 5. A 2017 Traverse has 3 rows and can seat up to 7.

Please elaborate. The Edge and Traverse are in different classes. The ST package is s performance package for Ford. The RS package has always been an appearance package for Chevrolet as far back as 1967.

 What is GM pretending to do? An RS package is nothing more than an appearance package for Chevrolet. This goes back as far as the 1967 Camaro.

I don’t think you fully understand what an RS package is on a Chevrolet. It is nothing more than an appearance package and in no way is a performance package. This goes back as far as the 1967 Camaro when the RS package could be added on top of any trim level from a base V6 up to a big block SS.

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
