I should know not to feed the trolls, but here we go.

let us return a lost liberty

I’m generally suspicious when someone sells a car they just sank big money into for modifications or an engine swap.

I never thought I’d see “Mitutoyo” and “cheap” in the same article.

Spot the trunk release button.

with their first being one with a 306 cubic-inch Ford small block. That engine was so large that they had to cut the firewall back just to fit it.

I swiped a set of factory Brembos off of an SL500 for like $100. I got them to fit up on my M3 with just a little custom bracketry and E46 rotors. Had to paint them red, obviously.

Bezos IS the supervillian. It’s like wondering why no one kidnapped that mob boss while he was out walking his dog.

okay, so your argument that asking for triple lockers is silly because AWD EVs have two motors, so at most you would only ever need is two lockers, or two slipping differentials that provide the same function as a locker but with different methods?

I’ll share my use case here - hobby racer. I tow 5000lbs once a month for roughly 200 miles round trip with the AC blasting the whole way. A couple times a year I may go as far as 300 miles in a day. Those that travel to racetracks would expect to do 500 miles in a day.

There are currently no electric off-roaders, so “most” EVs being single motor doesn’t really mean anything. Are there any single motor EVs that actually drive and drive four wheels?

Yeah, especially when many dealers are offering them for under invoice.

Locking 4wd is never going to be a thing with EVs though.

Man, this is a real Poe’s Law conundrum.

I caught what I can only assume are his-and-hers vanity plates in traffic.

High school parking lot had a Dodge Stratus with the license plate “STRATUS”. Seemed...unnecessary.

Yeah I haven’t seen an ad here in years, and I never had to deal with the autoplay video debacle, but I saw the complaints. I also don’t visit on mobile so that doesn’t hurt me either.
