How many depleted battery packs will you have strapped to your wall just to recharge the one or two EVs in the garage every night, let alone run your house.

The early 2000s Malibu was a bland copy-of-a-copy of a Camry.

I think that shows how car prices will rise significantly if we hit an all EV near future. Economies of scale may push down slightly, but batteries are heavy and expensive.

Probably a tax benefit to not register that car in California, and more importantly, no front plate to ugly up the front fascia.

Intel was a big fab before they unwisely tried to get out of that business a bunch of years ago. They are working on getting fabs back online all over the world.

When GPS got popular, I thought we were only a decade or so out from augmented reality on our windshields. Not a HUD arrow telling you to turn left, but actually making the correct lane glow green.

I reserve judgement until I can see one in person, cars have a weird tendency to not look quite like the photos. But I prefer this version of the face better.

Yes, shit is real. These people are technically thieves, and they are a thief in the spirit of the word as well.

They are trashing the environment directly by just throwing the shitty items and all the plastic packaging out the side of the train, as visible in the photo right in the headline. Then there is the environmental costs of the companies having to re-ship these items when they don’t arrive the first time. 

This exactly. Ford and Chevy woke up and are preselling their flagship vehicles, their light duty full sized pickup truck, with all electric drivetrains. Chevy is doing a little more “look at me, I’m electric” facelift for theirs, the F-150 is going for a much more subtle approach, but neither of them look like a…

I mean, there is a subset of people who buy a brand new SUV and instantly start to thrash it out in the woods. But like this dude...whether he intends to offroad it or not, he bought a truck with big, knobby tires, a low range transfer case, low geared rear end, in a relatively tall, narrow body on a frame. He can’t…

Exactly!

I don’t understand what people think they’re buying when they buy a Wrangler, or a Bronco or something similar. Despite them being much more comfortable than their predecessors, they are still purpose built offroaders!

THESE OIL CANS ARE DEFECTIVE!

If they can't exceed 160, how can they even commute?!

I always preferred to go in to the store as well.  My Jeep has half doors, so if I have the top on,  I need to unzip the plastic tent windows to use a drive thru.

Covid has destroyed drive-thrus for me in general. Nothing like being in a hurry and stopping at my local fast food place, and waiting an inordinate amount of time for the car ahead of me to get their order, only to watch them get two garbage bags worth of food handed to them.

Someone in my town used to have one of these, and it was cool to see tooling around. I suppose I developed a soft spot for them. NP.

As a hardcore Chevy truck acolyte, my dad HATES the Sierra for cannibalizing sales numbers from Silverados. 

This sounds like the proof that education doesn’t make you smart sometimes.
