Thats fair.

I guess thats the trade off: if you want to pay full price and slow the drive through down, order at the window and make sure you pay cash to avoid tracking via CC info. If you want the discount, use the app.

I assume they have thought of that and built in a large enough battery buffer that could (should) be increased when tow mode is enabled. The Chevy Volt had about a 12% battery buffer when introduced, but using “Mountain Mode” increased that to 50%.

All fun and games until an innocent beaver get its face melted off. Won’t someone think of the beavers?!

Oh, I read it as the 12V battery in the car was dead due to leaving the lights on. Most GMs released since 1999 don’t allow that, so I assumed most other manufacturers had similar stuff.

The difference is probably that other cars are designed robust enough for the slight rubbing for very fast operations not to affect the trim.

Curious what car you have that is new enough to have passive entry but not battery run down protection?

If you gave my 60 year old mother a Tesla, she would have no idea how to charge it or probably use the built in screen (mostly because she’d be too worried about messing something up) to search for charging locations. She’d likely search “EV charger” “Car Charger” “Tesla Charger” or something in google maps on her…

Many cars have manual door handles and autoindexing windows without issue.

Fairly odd omission from the article and actually what i googled immediately after reading the headline. 

Yeah, that line screams AI.

The Blackwood had it in 2002.  Did Honda have it before the Ridgeline existed on something else?

Voodoo’s are everywhere in Houston now and I try to get a different one each time I go, but I always end up liking the Homer more than any of their actual specialty ones...which I can basically get at any mom and pop.

Also, if you like people dancing in chaps, Struttin’ is a must in your rotation.

It has to be tropical house. How can you not feel cool listening to a song that reminds you of drinking under a palapa by the ocean? Plus, its chill enough to keep you from driving like an Altima driver but up beat enough to keep you engaged.

They must be joking with this grille...

To be fair, MotorTrend puts a 2000 Firebird (WS6) at 5.0 0-60, and a 2002 Camaro SS at 5.2. I can’t find anywhere published the prowler is faster.

I don’t carry the USB charger and lightening cable from my bedroom, to my car, to my office every day, I have a set up for each...charging a car is not different (a point you nearly found). Have a level 2 installed in the garage (if you can’t just get an extra travel plug to leave) and put a ‘simple wall plug’ cable…

If you can find a 3rd Gen Prius with under/at 100,000 miles for near/at 10,000...it feels like a good buy as an only vehicle with good fuel economy and reliability. Plus most people are surprised how much stuff they can swallow up, especially with the back seats down.

A fairly quick google search show his car collection having quite a few cars that were not at all made in america, including a phantom.
