If they need to simplify their lineup I suggest offering only two choices of drivetrain: pure electric, or the wonderful supercharged V8. Everything in between is a waste of resources. 

It does depend on who you’re talking to, but there is a large contingent of urbanists who view automobility as an evil which must be extinguished. Just listen in to a San Francisco MTA board meeting, and you’ll hear some of that. But also listen for terms like “traffic violence,” which is an attempt to redefine…

So you’re going to what, demolish the american cities and suburbs and start over? Because retrofitting htem to walking when you have a 20+ mile diameter region to cover is not sane. Paris is 47 square miles. Denver is 154 square miles. Los Angeles is FIVE HUNDRED square miles. Different worlds there, built in…

Here’s the thing about 15 minute cities: They’re terrible.

I am a professional astronomer. I design and build the cameras that look at the stars (think Hubble or Gemini, not a backyard toy). The more detritus that crosses the night sky, the more difficult to study the nature of the universe. For each streak that crosses a single frame, an additional frame is required to…

I’m surprised you were able to type that, usually handling Elon’s cock and balls is a two-handed job

/S?

Newer stuff is more commonly stolen via tow truck nowadays. If you’re gonna chop it up, you don’t exactly need keys.

The hot ones are always f*cking crazy, but that doesn’t stop you, does it?

Some people can’t have multiple cars. Some people take on vacation a year and choose for that to be spent overlanding. The same rigs you see out on the toughest trails still go to work during the week and stop at the mall for pants. You track your sports car 90% of the time? You bitch that people drive around in their…

Adding additional qualifiers does typically change specific circumstances.

The system is not broken,  as a society we valued amazon at a higher value because its a convenient way to get things during a pandemic and he owns some of that value.   He didnt actually get 13 billion dollars in his bank account, if he sold all of that the value of the company would plummit.

*face palm* he didn’t make $13B, we (the royal we) decided his stock now has a higher face value...he is mega rich, but he can’t just sell it all for cash and go buy whatever, he’s not allowed to and it would crash the valuation of the very stock he’d be selling. 

Post more articles complaining about the guy that helps keep the lights on at Gizmedia. 

To be fair, I don’t think i’d be inclined to interrupt a bloke wielding a cordless power tool with criminal intent.

Millionaire? My car averages better fuel economy when I let it warm up compared to driving it cold. Plus, I believe it is better for the engine to warm up before driving.

If you’re driving a shared vehicle, prep it for the next driver by turning on blower to full, all accessories on, radio on full volume, wipers on turbo speed.

I’m in Arizona, 160F inside temps are the norm during the summer. Instead of doing this crazy door dance, the best way to quickly expel heat is to do musical doors instead.

Open all doors and trunk. By the time the last door is opened just about all the heat will have escaped, then close the doors and trunk, get in,…

Cadillac first, and then Chevy.  Let the blue collar buyers think “cheaper Cadillac” rather than have the well-heeled buyers think “expensive Chevy”.
