Of all the political platforms one could run on I think disbanding the TSA would be one that would be universally supported.

Brings new meaning to old man yells at cloud.

NP with once caveat. “two pine tree air fresheners hanging from the rear-view ensuring olfactory enjoyment in the cabin.”  I have a feeling this car has a water leak or something causing it to smell weird.  Cars should smell like cars and I assume anyone who has an air freshener (or two) is probably hiding something.

“The cars don’t go far enough. They’re very, very expensive. They’re also heavy,” I agree with all of this but I don’t support Trump. EV’s have less range than ICE or Hybrids, are more expensive than their ICE counterparts (usually by a lot- the Macan is going up $12k) and they are heavy. Everything else is a bunch of…

I too hate fake tips. I prefer big natural tips.

I feel like Paul Hogan’s Subaru commercials should be up there.  There are non-car people that to this day think Subaru is an Australian company because of those commercials.

Far easier to find a Triumph TR8 if you want a flying wedge with a Rover 3.5.

Detroit is really living up to Robocop 2 these days.

Like most technologies I think we will see it start in the high end models and gradually come down to lower tiers.  I could see Lucid or Maserati coming out with a solid state battery.  That being said if Toyota can get the price down due to economies of scale then I could see it in there PHEV first due to the smaller…

“we’ve always managed to easily exceed Lucid’s own range and efficiency ratings, so perhaps this updated range is closer to Rawlinson’s holy grail than the numbers might make it seem.”

$12,400 increase over the ICE version for the base EV is not as insignificant as you make it out to be. The Macan is the biggest volume seller because it is the entry point for most people to Porsche. The more that base price goes up the less people will buy them. Add to that the insecurities of people about EV’s and…

Elio Motors. They were supposed to be a super cheap 3 wheel EV (at first they were an 84mpg ICE) that was under $15k and had an amazing range. The reality is they are vaporware and I’m not sure if they’ve put out a single production car.

Yep so basically RIP Jaguar.

Not a stick shift, I’ll pass.  These things do handle surprisingly well for those who have never driven one.

Ah yes like the classic saying this goes together like Jaguar and electronics. Jaguar has a great history with electronics right?  Pour one out for one of the few companies crazy enough to still build a supercharged V8.

Pretty sure if I wanted to write a comic book about a dude who races a Subaru WRX I would have organically come up with the name Scott Speed. If that is your name you kind of have to be a race car driver.

There was also a Beat by Dre 300 at some point

I’ll go with the Nautica Mercury Villager. I don’t know who benefits on that and they didn’t make them very long. If you bought one you got a banana colored Nautica bag though.

It more dates to 1979 (that is when the “panther” platform was introduced but there are technically 3 distinct versions one goes from ‘79-’91 then from ‘91-’02 then ‘03-’12.  The ‘03 and up had a hydroformed steel frame and used rack and pinion steering .  It also had an aluminum stressed member added to hold the…

I personally don’t think a legacy platform with batteries is as bad as people make it out to be.  It lowers the price due to economies of scale, it makes it more repairable and cheaper to insure, and it shares some parts with more models which will make it more likely to be repairable in the future.  Isn’t the Lyriq…
