An S2000 isn’t easy for a 70 year old to get in an out of. 

No.

Or just drive a good looking car and stop worrying about keeping up with the Jones?

Brad, always 1000% pleased with how active a commenter you are on your articles. Keep doing you! 

The Genesis is hotter. Fight me. 

When was the last time a Le Mans winner was relevant to your daily commute?

And don’t say shit like “gone totally homo” like it’s a pejorative, you fucking Neanderthal.

Toni! Are you back or is this temporary?

The readership on this site are idiots... and it’s not getting better. This car is going to be perfect in its segment.

A feller would find himself watching Vice Grip Garage, where Derek would resurrect an old car from the junk yard, that hasn’t moved in 20 years and drive it several hundred miles home - sometimes during the winter, with a propane heater sitting next to him.

Yeah, I love how everyone said just wait till a real car manufacture makes an EV and yet Ford, VW, and others have been delayed, had recalls, and various other problems getting their Tesla killers out the door. Maybe instead of telling Tesla that #makingcarsishard, we should all acknowledge that #makingevsishard.

Ford couldn’t get the new Explorer, Bronco, or F150 out the door without issues. Their first EV wasn’t going to go smoothly.

Acura was brilliant in the early days with the Legend and Integra, but started to waver when they expanded the lineup. Infiniti never had direction, even when the G35 was popular.

Nobody is making this strawman case you insist on attacking. The general idea is that the rules and regulations are way off in terms of addressing externalities and that if they were updated appropriately, they make buying a truck way less attractive

I don’t think it goes down the road of ‘your lifestyle and needs dictate that you shall only drive a fully electric vehicle that fits 2 passengers, 1 cat and a medium sized set of luggage’. But for things like light trucks, they were exempted from the CAFE standards (and a few others) because when those were all put…

The thin-skinned are like that.

Pittsburgh native here. I’ve lived in several other states, and agree that Pittsburgh drivers are generally pretty good.

I liked this line to open it up:

In 2017, the labor costs (truck drivers, taxi drivers, delivery drivers) in just the USA was 164 billion. Whoever comes out with best system first stands to make a fortune, if they can slice off .1%of that market. 

This could eventually work if they started aiming for a solution that works in controlled, limited environments (including limited liabilities). For example within an airport. And then expanded from there.

The difference between the two is there’s no short-term business case for fixing the climate (at least as long as carbon isn’t taxed.) The first company to figure out autonomous driving stood to make a mint.
