I’m so tired of these systems. If I have to sit in the driver’s seat while awake, alert and sober than this system benefits me not one bit. It adds no functionality.

Well yeah I agree 110% on not using this through any kind of road works. But you know as well as I do, someone will at least try to. Maybe they need to give it a system to detect roadworks, I’d call it OBDS (Orange Barrel Detection System).

Huh? The described assisted driving system requires the drivers to pay more attention to the road than they do now!

More proof that fully autonomous cars are at least 10 years away, with significant market acceptance at least 20 years away.

If I need to pay full attention, this tech is is a gimmick - not a feature.

I don’t think a vehicular arms race to see who can kill the most people with half-baked autonomous driving software for bragging rights is in anyones best interest.

This is why we can’t have nice things—because no matter how useless it may be to someone else, if that person is a sufficient asshole who finds opportunity, they’ll say, “Yeah, I’ll just steal that.”

Not at all. There are very few vehicles you could actually use the parts on and they are all owned by other race teams. The racing community is close enough that if any of the other teams saw the parts pop up they would let GMG know about it.

Only issue I see is then that the former owners of the property probably illegally sold a house with TWO parking spaces of which one did not belong to them anymore. So in the USA you would now sue the crap out of the former owners to get even ;)

Yeah.

Other ways to freshen the face of a car— sand/polish the headlight lenses to make them clear again, use trim restorer to make black trims black again, replace cracked/chipped fog lights, and line up the bumper properly. A lot of older cars have saggy or misaligned bumpers that can be fixed with a bit of time and

I don’t think you quite understand the concept that just printing more money is not a good idea. The only reason the dollar is holding steady at the moment is due to artificially low interests rates for the past 10 years. Guess what? It’s not going to last forever. This is how inflation happens.

And eventually the dollar will become worthless if it continues. I work in accounting, it’s my job to know economics. Debt in the long game in this manner is not in the best interests for anyone. The economy works a lot based off consumer decisions, and if those decisions are unsound, then it affects more than you may

I’m actually amazed at how ugly MOST cars are today. And I don’t want to get into some wistful rant about how back in the day cars were more beautiful, but I think starting in the ‘80s when cars slowly started losing their edges and looking very same-ish, up to today where designers are playing with folds, awkward

1st gear. I’m glad it’s going to become harder. People who have no business getting an auto loan (specifically the sub prime kind) need to learn to live within their means. There needs to be better standards for loan approvals, and hopefully this is a step in the right direction.

I hate those CVT transmissions.

Neutral —- I sort of stopped paying attention to Suburu when they stopped having Crocodile Dundee do their ads. That’s pretty much the same with Isuzu. Once Isuzu Joe went off the air, I’m like “Is Isuzu still a thing?”

Neutral: How to you feel about Subarus? Ugly? Beautiful? Meh?
