It's gotta be a super-slick cooling ordeal. Looks like they are going for lots of air velocity so that they can use a small opening. That would explain why the fans inside look rather turbine-like instead of more normal radiator fans.

Man, old Mercedes Diesels make such great first cars.

My daily driver is just now turning 30 years old (was manufactured in '85). Honestly, driving it every day is pretty damn ordinary. As old-fashioned as it looks, it was a rather modern car in its day. It has compact FWD packaging, fuel injection, a proper ECU, and it even has cruise control!

Except for the part where you told her she was communicating 'the wrong way', whatever the fuck that means. I don't care if you hide that fact behind wussy-ass lines like "was maybe not the right tack to take". She was communicating her feelings, so if you say she was communicating wrong, then you say she was feeling…

Don't sweat it. Just work on those communication skills.

It's cool dude, I'm an Editor, we're supposed to be really fucking good at this shit. Most of us aren't but, eh, you know, nobody's perfect. Anyway, it is important to have good reading comprehension because of situations exactly like your original comment.

Except for the part where many, many, many people will act exactly like she's gross because something horrible happened to her. Tons of people feel like an incident of incestual rape such as this must be at least somewhat the victim's fault.

You seem to have been snagged by the fact that there is no tone or inflection in writing like there is in speech. That sucks. Sorry dude.

"Your desire to share how uncomfortable you are with someone else' experience serves what purpose, exactly?"

Wow dude.

Wow dude.

Pretty amazing to genuinely witness a person like you. Feels like being at the zoo and seeing some exotic, but ultimately ill-adapted bird.

Great point, except that this is actually a very old story.

Wow! You're right, any one of us could pay fourty grand for a Camry and then drive it until powdered wigs come back into style...

That's so odd, I really don't understand. Why the hell would they use a "loooooong driveshaft" to send power to the rear wheels? Why not just place an electric motor or two in the back of the car as close to the rear wheels as possible? Why use a crazy-ass series of Dr. Seuss driveshafts? This car uses ERS so heavily,…

It isn't completely FWD. All of the V6 engine's mechanical power will be sent to the front wheels, but at least some (or maybe all) of the power from the KERS will be sent to the rear wheels. I imagine that any and all opportunity for torque vectoring through the electric motor(s) will be utilized. Sending maximum…
