The GMC multipro isn’t available on the base trims; no one is forcing you to pay for this tailgate. If you’re this annoyed by features, then you weren’t going to buy a higher trim anyway.

Soo what you’re saying is that you’re whining that full-size trucks, not the category you’re even interested in, is getting a fancier tailgate, while also whining about the lack of a ute. Just wait for Ford’s new courier or buy used. 

I mean, I could’ve used it a lot this year. A 6.5' bed is a great size except most of the lumber I buy is 8', and leaving things diagonal really cuts down on what else can go in the bed. I imagine that everyone with a crew cab and 5.5' bed really wishes they could lay lumber down flat while still having other supplies…

I mean, isn’t the point that GMC buyers can feel better than chevy drivers bc they have the more upscale version than the rest of the proles, while chevy drivers can feel better than gmc buyers bc they didn’t throw away money on a fancy truck but instead got an ‘honest’ (TM) truck for real workin... and GM gets to…

I, for one, don’t like to complain when auto manufacturers make vehicles more functional (better suspension distance and load capacity) while still trying to keep the vehicles accessible for those who may not have the full mobility of a young person. For those who want a very accessible truck with reduced capability,…

Or add a tailgate at the back of the cab, avalanche style. That’d make it easier to want to buy a crewcab shortbed, as extended cabs become harder to find.

This doesn’t seem like a very fair or accurate comment, given the whole DIY, self-sufficient lesbian segment

That would be awesome, but I feel like they’d have to steal from the Tremor if they do that - isn’t that what’s making it an F250-sized raptor?

I don’t understand how that affects anything that I said or is even remotely pertinent to the conversation at hand.

I thought the new raptor was speculated to have a v8?

Sounds unnecessary to me. Any university with an abet mechanical engineering program is going to have some automotive courses. I went to a tiny school and still took engine design courses just for a fun elective, and  I have friends who went straight to Ford after graduation with their bsme 

I mean, the electrostatic cleaning that uses charged ions to direct spray is scientifically effective from what I’ve heard, and quite different than just spraying an area down with a cleaner, but I’m no expert

““electrostatic disinfectant sprayers” will use “negatively charged ions” to clean surfaces between screenings;”

Uh oh. Got a link?

Wow, the luxury EVs have progressed a lot farther than I thought they had - that’s exciting

I’m not sure it’s that boing to contextualize power usage, because you just posted an article about “what uses more power: 1A cords, 2.4A cords, or wireless charging?”

The company you work for is paying to host these comments on your blog, in which you are encouraged to invite discourse, meaning further hosting footprint.

I had the magnet adapter on my old phone, but I lost that specific cable and thus killed its effectiveness. It was great while it lasted, though. I’ve started just leaving a bit of tape over my ports on devices that I don’t charge that frequently, like tablets and such. I can’t imagine trying to keep ports clean with…

Certainly, but doesn’t this mean on a list of ‘bad for the world for additional power generation’ it ranks well below: having a secondary work phone, charging a smartwatch or reader, etc.? I mean, it’s less than 7Wh, roughly on the scale of having to turn on a light and find the right cord and plug it in...

The sole reason that I started using a wireless charger exclusively is that the most common failure point on my phones has been the charging port. Crud and pocket lint gets shoved up there, the contacts wear out, and if a phone case has a little rubber flipper to protect the port, that rubber flipper wears out and…
