5th Gear: Auto sales are off everywhere, so I am wondering if the drop in subsidies slowing EV sales is causal or merely corollary.

No, this will not happen. MB shows us the Ali McGraw future (I’m old) but will deliver something that looks like a blob fish because beans.

You may be happy to know that the Mach E will be on the new Ford e platform, for electrics only, and not some jiggery pokery on a Mustang platform.

Yeah, I think it also also stems from fanboys who would feel left out of the “if she were my girlfriend” fantasies. 

You need to do a title search for the property about that time, plus any legal documents related to property (zoning, plats, etc.) Any good title company working in the local clerk’s can get you that info. At the very least, more leads.

10 miles at full tilt shouldn’t be a problem since the Veyron was only good for about 9 minutes with a full tank at top speed before it ran out of fuel. The Chiron maybe 5 minutes?

Huzzah! Yet another minivan!

As Jalops, remember we also lost a dynamic advocate for our sport and area of interest. Badass she was, but she was also approachable and enlightening, skilled, and in the thick of it as an example to others. Male or female, its a sad day when we lose one of our own, however they go. And did she ever NOT have a smile…

Coupes?! I’m still trying to get over people calling Mercedes Benz’ “Mercs.” Mercs are Mercury. There is no hard C in Mercedes, so I pronounce it in my head as Murse, and in Man Purse. Benz is the KFCification of Mercedes Benz. Curse you Jeremy Clarkson and your drooling sycophants. Whew, I feel better now.

Huzzah! More minivans!

I’m just reading the book. That takes a little longer than 3.5 hours, but no movie theater seat swampass, so win+win.

They make between 1-2,000 per month, so not a volume leader. I have see a few in the DC metro, but not many.

It’s a minivan. All SUV/CUV/Crew Cab are minivans. You raise a whole generation in minivans and that’s all they know from. Coupe and Sedans forever, also station wagons, but those are as rare as very rare things.

16/23 is dismal these days, but there are plenty of lowering kits for these hoopties. 

The very most wonderful thing about the microbus driving position, is that you were always the first person to the scene of the accident. Neat. 

It runs on Sad.

I had one that I installed on my Prius back in 2010. Subtle. Just a back glow on the Toyota badge. It was well received. I think it cost me $75 to make it. The valets loved it.

Moving the electrons from that sort of centralized farm would make them tired and not so zappy? 

Where I live, we have seen paint experiments were parts of the road are painted with a half dozen different kinds of paint to let the traffic drive over it for a year or so to see which formula holds up best. Same with sections of different kinds of paving material. So, this was as valid a test as those have been, it…

68 was the first car crush I had, especially with those taillights. So clean. I do love the 70 Charger and GTX in full adult chrome trim, though. I never liked the split grill 69.
