I am trying not to be rude, but seriously. Anyone that is using “What happened to all those trucks that made loading bikes a breeze?” as the gold standard of pickup truck height should not be allowed to write stories about pickup truck heights. And certianly not for an automotive journal. If ANY truck buyer is basing

The SFRA (Special Flight Rules Area) over the DC area is quite sensitive and has a shit ton of assets on the ground and in the air always ready to “check out” anything that does not have clearance to be in it. And if you get closer into DCA area, you better have advanced clearance or its going to be a shit show.

And while Tesla’s share of the market declined, Musk’s stranglehold on thedouchiest CEO” moniker is not showing any signs of retreat.

I like how the rabid followers just say that it’s a new vehicle so it will have issues that need to be worked out. As if any other manufacturer would be deemed ok to sell a new product devoid of adequate testing that results in road failure. Their devotion is fascinating.

Are we just skipping over the political issues, which are probably harder to overcome than environmental? Whose country the minerals are located on the planet decides whether or not you can get at them and then what the price might be.

By rail? In the North East? Buwhahahaha! In all seriousness, anything by rail in the NE is an absolute clusterfuck. You have antiquated infrastructure in densely populated areas. If these people knew what was currently in the limited amount of rail cars that go by, they would lose their mind. Now times the quantity by

I’m not asking much here, but could someone write an article that actually has a practical interest/knowledge in the subject at hand and/or not come off as an elitist? An article about a possible feature on a pickup from someone who readily admits they will never own a truck, lives in the city, and should only be

How is Geico liable? I thought it was the car that was insured and not the driver.....nor his penis?

I work in the bowels of the FAA.  In dealing with most platforms I encounter, Windows 7 would be too NEW to be a concern.  It would not be surprising if some key 9600 baud modems blew out and the hold up was trying to find a Radio Shack to replace them.

When traveling, I have a diesel pickup pulling a 5th wheel trailer. I have my own luxurious bathroom with me. I will say, it is quite convenient to pull up to the big rig lanes at a truck stop, fill my tank with a high speed pump, bleed the lizard, wash my hands, grab a drink and sandwich from the fridge, and then on

Here’s the part I never see discussed. It’s the extended cost of the efficiency of a heat pump to match existing technology. If I have to replace my HVAC in my house, it’s $15k. If I go with a heat pump that can match what I need in the cold NE that will get zero or below on occasion, a similar super high efficiency

You can’t have it both ways. A Silverado that weighs 8000 lbs? Given the GVW and capabilities of the ICE powered Silverado, where did the surprise part come in that the amount of batteries needed to match the ICE performance makes the vehicle heavy? It’s elementary.

There’s pretty sound economic rules and a long history that says simply printing money with no hard backing just ain’t going to work. So where does the surprise part come in with crypto? Then add in that you’re digital wallet is more likely to get cleaned out by North Korea long before you get a chance at collecting

My wife wanted a Telluride. For her, its always a 3 year lease. Doing the math on the Telluride, I should be around $500 to lease and like $700-800 to purchse...if I remember all the number correctly. This was a year or so ago.

Wait? Buying a 20 years old car might have a ton of stuff that doesn’t work and is not worth the headache? Shut the front door!

Unfortunately, if you make this many miles on a car in the North East, you probably have 3 sets of floor mats down in order to cover up the rusted out holes in the floor. Also, probably through umpteen suspension parts from a combination of the salt and lunar surface like streets full of never repaired pot holes.

I look at SpaceX and think there’s NFW this is the same Musk we are talking about. How can that be so well run and ambitious and then everything else he touches turns to brown?

Without the Union behind them?

Seems a little small for the average gamer / McDonalds frequenter?

So this is what the market is bearing. I either pay these prices for a new vehicle or I buy used. But used prices are insane and why spend that kind of money for something that might break down before I can pay off the loan? For the average buyer, there’s take not much of a right answer given the market inflating
