I have to assume the levity and juxtaposition here was intentional and it made me chuckle. It love how effortlessly it shows that F1 really doesn’t want drivers to speak up about any topic unless its directly filling their pockets. solid writing, 10/10.

They are both over a decade old.

yeah, doing the math, even a HUMMER EV (which has standard auto braking w/ pedestrian detection) could hesitate for 3.5 seconds and be stopped from 60 (motortrend claims 137ft) in 450 feet.

braking half a second quicker at 60 miles per hour, that’s potentially stopping 450 feet shorter.

In October 2023, a human driver hit a woman crossing the street, throwing her into the path of a Cruise robotaxi that dragged her 20 feet and pinned her to the ground.

I thought I was losing my mind, because from the cover photo i was absolutely sure i saw one of these on the highway yesterday in Houston.

When the timeline just knows.

I assume it would only speed up the generational wealth transfer, not redistribute it to anyone who wasn’t already inline to get it anyway.

I’m the opposite. I will call my mom on my afternoon commute (≈1.5hrs, 31 miles) but as soon as i get home, I am ready to get off the phone and just sit in silence for a few minutes, read the news, then eventually turn the TV on. My partner is usually at work still when I get home so its nice to be able to decompress ,…

Thats the really neat part, they still do make a profit ($1.3B) because expensive gas guzzlers.

Only option left at this point is to hire a driver.

They closed their eyes and pretended premium fuel was the same price as regular. The Escalade takes premium (or Diesel) yet they have it as the same cost as the Chevys (no GMC love?) for which they used regular gas price.

Spoiler alert, there aren’t any sedans or crossovers on this list because either that doesnt fit the narrative they are looking for or its too hard to multiply 22.2 gallons by the price of premium fuel so they could not be bothered to list the S-580 4MATIC.

At the 75 cent premium this site reported last March, thats $1…

Their list is...selective. The X7 with its 21.9 gallons of premium fuel would be 91.54 to fill, assuming 50 cents extra a gallon (Jalop said it was 75 cents more about a year ago). Range Rover has a 23.8 gallon tank which likes premium fuel, that would also be on the list.

You’re in luck! The diesel engine is only a $100 dollar option in the Escalade.

Yeah, they bamboozled a lot of the general public into beta testing, I don’t see any serious automakers signing up to have their customers be beta testers. They might have done in house beta testing if they werent already developing more sophisticated systems of their own. 

I think that is assumed to be $0 as of now, right? So the question of when they could license FSD and if they were actually in talks with real manufactures was probably as close as you will get.

Well, neither is named after a state. They both flow through reddish brown soil and sandstone, giving their names.

Theres probably a reason, other than all the safeguards built into their system, as to why you dont hear about supercruise crashes. I wonder who it could be...

The only trucks that I know of that came from the factory with a tonneau cover are the avalanche and blackwood. The Avalanche could be opened from the inside using glow in the dark handles. The blackwood could be opened from the inside but i cannot tell if they are glow in the dark.
