A Spitfire has all the structural rigidity of a raw pork chop. Even the GT6 wasn’t that much better.

Great cruiser, fantastic reliability, and makes an excellent daily driver. The right size. Not bad for tall drivers, as long as you get the power seats and run them all the way down. Surprisingly large trunk, and there’s some sort of origami magic involved because the back seat is actually usable.

Be a “Windows up convertible” guy. It lets you drive it with the top down FAR MORE OFTEN, and that’s the point of having a convertible in the first place.

Did we overthrow democratically elected foreign governments and replace them with dictatorships to guarantee access to cobalt for US mining companies? No. Do you know how the Shah of Iran came to power?

Wow, you're counting on him having a REALLY specific fetish.

I see it now:

It seems clear to me that you’ve misremembered someone saying “the motor has one moving part”.

ICE cars are subsidized by the government far more than EVs, not just in oil company write offs and ridiculously low separation royalties paid for fuel extraction. We’ve also paid in thousands of dead and wounded soldiers and wrecked families, and paid with trillions in war costs. 

Nice shill user name, bro.

The hydrogen cycle is dead, dead, dead for cars. Batteries have already won.

That tie look is relatively common now. Certainly more so than when WKRP was on TV. Also, I just watched an episode of The Magicians and saw it in recent media as well.

Thanks for the reply. Maybe my last comment came across too pointed. I know you’re not of the typical drooling masses on this issue.

Ten years ago, this might have been relevant, perhaps even interesting.

It’s all about the rider and the care they put in. There are plenty of Harleys long since melted into scrap metal.

NOT YOURS.

They tried a pilot program (likely in order to get California tax credits, or some such benefits) and determined that swap stations simply aren’t necessary, and cause more headaches than they solve.

Full disclosure: I don’t care for Tesla. I’ve driven a Model S and X both in p95D and P100D trims respectively. They’re impressive cars from an American “lets go from stoplight to stoplight really quickly”.

Bury them in the greys instead.

With all the money in the world, how is it that he doesn’t fly to Nevada or Amsterdam occasionally instead?

On the other hand, it may make room for coachmakers (think early 20th century car building) to flourish, since they do not have to worry about the heavy-lifting. Give a firm 100 Rivian skateboard platforms or MEB platforms and let them custom build....
