If it’s a road course racecar it probably doesn’t need a 6th gear for cruising.

I have a reasonable idea, but the fact that I don’t know everything is why I posted that article by the union of concerned scientists. They did take the time to analyze everything. So don’t believe me, believe them. Or any of the other studies out there right now that confirm the same thing. Deny all you want, but at

Why don’t we just make electric cars sound like F-Zero cars?!

Dude, look at the link I posted in a couple of places in this thread. It’s a pretty comprehensive analysis. Or look at lots of other similar articles and studies that prove the same point with the numbers to back it up. Lots of smart people have run the math. EVs are perfect, but they are way better for the

I was thinking F-Zero (which would be awesome), but I think you might be closer. Now that I’ve read your comment I can’t hear this noise without thinking of the rainbow track.

Thank you for the well-reasoned response with actual numbers and math, instead of just making a bunch of baseless statements to back up your preconceived notions. Also, for gasoline we have to take into account the actual drilling process, shipping across oceans (in some cases) and pipeline leaks. Not to mention, the

Try again:

I know I’m nitpicking, but I don’t believe Musk started Tesla.

Bullshit. Even if you’re running the electric grid off of almost all fossil fuels, EVs are still cleaner as electric motors are around twice as efficient as ICEs. Not to mention, the electrical grid is a much more efficient method of transport than trucking gasoline to gas stations all over the country. As our

I’m pretty sure almost all EV fans realize this. Nice try, though.

Jalopnik would have to use a randomizer to pick before each article whether the NP or CP car would be the “winning” selection. Otherwise, we’d all just pick whichever choice would force the author to buy the car, every time.

As a runner, the bikers on sidewalks thing really pisses me off. I can understand if a biker occasionally rides slowly and carefully on a sidewalk next to a busy/deadly street (especially if it’s a kid). But I’ve almost been hit by cyclists riding (at a high rate of speed) on sidewalks along roads with marked bike

As a pedestrian/runner and occasional cyclist I try to be very courteous to cyclists when I drive, but the local cyclists around here make it very difficult. It’s a rarity when I see an adult cyclist (the adults behave worse than the kids) stop for a stop sign. They usually don’t even slow down. Idiots. They don’t

The problem is, that also makes it hard to get Jordana Brewster back into the mix, unless they kill off Brian or they’re separated.

I think the muffler condom broke.

Go Boilers.

Indeed, that horrible center display is a war crime. With all the things the feds mandate on cars, I can’t believe they won’t mandate that at a gauge cluster with (at minimum) a speedometer and warning lights be placed in front of the driver.

I owned two 80s Rangers at various times, including a 4cyl manual with no power steering or brakes that had over 200,000 miles. I didn’t own that one for long.

Didn’t Tesla hire one of the interior design head honchos from Volvo a while back? I wonder when we’ll start seeing the results of that hire? I hope the Model 3 interior wasn’t his work (blech). Not that it really matters to me, as I can’t afford a Tesla.
