Didn’t know that about the Mazda contingency thing you posted.  That’s actually pretty cool!

I know it was never the most liked of the series, but I don’t think it’s as objectively terrible as people make it out to be.  Then again I’ve never liked using magic in a game, so I guess I only really stood to gain from the junctioning system.  Honestly, I kinda liked it.  It let you buff the stats you wanted so you…

Marketing and warranting are two different things. The truck may be incredibly capable off-road in the sense that the suspension and whatnot can go over lots of obstacles. That doesn’t necessarily mean that they will warrant it if you launch it off a 10 foot ramp or attach a 4 foot high rock with nothing but a boot…

Dodge.  The Demon is fully warranted on a track.  That’s about the only one I can think of off the top of my head.  The Viper might be too, but it could depend on what you manage to damage.

I thought part of the move away from ground effects was because they were potentially more dangerous.  Like, running over something on the track or the curbing or whatever could instantly remove the effects or significantly damage them at least.  I know it’s mostly about maintaining the gap to the ground, so it may…

Lower profile tires would also give you better control over suspension characteristics.  While I’m sure the teams understand the tires very well at this point, they are still basically an extra spring in the system, one that does not have controllable damping for that matter.  The larger volume of air would also…

I’m surprised they don’t just reject claims outright with “for on-road use only” on the warranty. This doesn’t seem much different than a company saying they won’t warrant a car taken on a race track. It’s dumb and completely against the point of the car, but lawyers at the company like it.

To the last guy, why do you think a Challenger is a bad purchase?  They are nice cars and great for daily driving.  Are they the nimblest of the pony car bunch?  No.  Does that matter for just having fun and enjoying yourself?  Not really.  Get what you want.  They backseat is huge, the trunk is even bigger, and if it…

You monitor each individual cell because it only takes one to die for the pack to become worthless. I remember reading a story about a guy that bought a Prius with a bad battery pack super cheap and tore the battery apart to find one bad cell. He replaced it and the whole thing was good as new. If that one cell…

I basically agree with you, but that’s what we’ve had in the Leaf for years now and it hasn’t sold that well. Maybe it’s more of a design issue that no one really likes compared to actually utility, but it’s been in the wild for a while now. Same with the old Volt I believe. That’s basically also what a Prius has been…

Wait, why not FF VIII? That seems really odd to have almost every old FF but it now available on Switch.

More ethical would be to tax it all away immediately.

Depends on what you’re replacing I suppose.

Maybe people were just pointing out that it’s a lame-ass joke instead of thinking you were actually doing it?

There are lots of costs involved, so the big question is which ones they might be talking about. First and foremost, batteries are still expensive. We’ve all seen the graphs and charts that show they are 1/2 the price they used to be, but that’s still not cheap. Motors aren’t exactly cheap either when you get really…

The umbrella wasn’t actually the worst “excuse” I’ve ever heard.  It’s nice to keep the sun off black carbon fiber before you’re going to get in it.  Not like it won’t be a hundred degrees and change during the race, but at least you can pretend it will be nice to start with.

I’m not entirely sure I get why FOM feels it necessary to allow a view of the steering wheel pre-race.  That seems like a legitimate concern for a team.  I guess you could just remove the wheel and leave it off until the driver gets in, but sounds like maybe the car is actually active to some degree while sitting…

My Viper has an electric door setup as well, but the manual override is so intuitive you barely even realize it’s there in a good way.  Or for that matter you barely realize the door is electric depending on how you want to look at it.  It still has a pull handle on the inside of the door that’s the main release.  The…

Honestly, aside from the Cascada I mostly like the way Buicks look. To me they are kinda like Audis in that they aren’t really overstated. They come across and pretty clean and sleek lately. The massively high beltline on the Cascada just looks awful to me. It looks like a little kid trying to see over the edge of a…

I don’t really see how their flavors are any different than any other vape though. If you look up “vape flavors” on Google you get similar results to specifically looking up Juul flavors. They might be advertising them harder, but I don’t think they are fundamentally different or targeted any different by name alone.
