I also like comparing things that happened in the 1970's to things that happened now.

Congrats on the most stupid post on Jalopnik today.

The reason Ford could sell the Pinto is because the regulatory environment back then was almost nonexistent. Are you suggesting that we go back to that?

Comparing regulations from today and from nearly 40 years ago makes so sense. Regulations are far more strict these days and Ford would never be able to sell the Pinto in that form in today’s environment

WUT? Georgia is NOT trying to “copyright a law”. As you clumsily noted in your article, they are copyriting the annotations, which are separate works of authorship by scholars and commentators. They are absolutely owed protection by copyright the same way that I would be if I wrote and published a hardcover editorial…

Now that this “record” event has been publicized, with data to support, what keeps these three douches from being prosecuted for violating the driving laws of several states ? (and generally endanger innocent people along the way).

Here’s the fundamental difference between Mercedes and Ferrari, one Binotto needs to address in the off-season if he wants Ferrari to improve. It’s not going to be an easy change because this is inherently ingrained in Ferrari’s culture and part of it is due to being an Italian team that the Italians adore:

Everything Ferrari has to done since the late 2000's has given me hope that someday the New England Patriots will go through a similar painful decent into mediocrity that we can all revel in.

It seems like the writer made up their mind about the press release before reading it. 

They’re still going to be laying some people off, but yeah, they aren’t laying off 10,000 people. Really, they’re going with the best option they’ve got, which is to just not replace people who quit / retire.

That is just not true. Most of those are fleet sales....for work.

He took the same calculus and diff eq as any other engineer...not that this is particularly complex math. What does his experience have to do with basic geometry and vectors?

I’m just here to say I love that tire. The Michelin Pilot Sport 4 S can make anyone look like a superstar racer in the rain. I’ve autocrossed extensively on that tire in the rain (with standing water too!) and it’s like racing with a dry-weather tire in the dry.

It’s never getting a manual and Chevy has repeatedly explained why.  Just stop and get over this.

I don’t see it ever getting a manual especially after looking at the cutaway and how little space there is a for a pedal assembly and hydraulics. That’s on top of the fact that they would have to figure out how to connect a shifter and where to fit a gearbox. 

Also if GM was “catering to brand loyalists” then the C6 would have never gotten rid of pop up headlights, the C7 would have circular tail lights, and the C8 sure as hell wouldn’t be mid engined. Tadge Juegter(Cheif engineer for Corvette) once stated that the Corvette would always evolve and use the latest technology…

Id rather have the opposite with a German body and GM power train.

What you don’t pay in maintenance, you’ll pay in gas, but a Yukon Denali is a legit luxury cruiser with the reliability of a pickup truck.

Sometimes I feel like cars that “don’t need a lot of maintenance” are just actually better at hiding how broken they are from their oblivious owners.

Actually, holiday travel is when planes are at their most efficient. During holiday travel, they beat half-full cars by almost 2:1 for greenhouse gasses.
