the Oldsmobile 5.7 diesel wasn't nearly as bad as you've heard

Sounds to me like all you ricers and coal rollers got just what you deserved.

I’m 50 pages in and all I see are regs for big rigs and tractor-trailers. I won’t mind a spoiler: Can you tell me where it addresses vehicles that normal people might actually race?

Yep, my exact thought. All the idiots running test pipes on the road brought this on us all. Good work.

Because laws are outdated and not in antway linked to the real world. But do you remember pollution in the 70's in the US? What reduced that drastically down to today’s level? Yes, government regulations...

Nerdy techbros who want to be different.

Guys who want to buy a cruiser but don’t want to play biker gang dress up on a Harley Davidson?

Is it weird I am less curious about the Model 3 and more curious about a refreshed Model S? Tesla has never done a refresh or a redesign: it has always been a new model. Roadster -> Model S -> Model X. With the Model S being on the market for a few years now, it is almost due for a nip/tuck (never mind the software

This is correct its a TBI 350 where as the the more desirable 350 of this era is the TPI 350 the formulas and T/As got.

This has throttle body injection, which is a miniscule step up from an actual carburetor, but an important one.

How would you know? The expected range is the same, the price is the same and we don’t know anything else for sure. Why are you expecting a CLA for Bolt money? Yes the Model S is very nice but for $100K it certainly ought to be.

“May not always”...you misspelled never

I think everybody’s going to be severly disapointed. Everybody thinks it’s going to be a scaled down S, but it’ll probably be close to the Bolt. Nobody has seen a thing about the car yet, and it’s already the best ever, ultra luxury, high performance, way better than that shitty GM. Yeah, sure, Tesla’s going to sell a

I think the intent is to try and sell a few cars at a $35k breakeven price using existing technology, with the notion that volume will eventually drive an actual profit. Assuming that the volume comes in over a 3+ year lifecycle.

The problem is that GM is already beating them to the punch with the 2017 Bolt. Then, in

This isn’t surprising. It’s actually totally consistent with previous Tesla releases, namely that Tesla engineering can’t deliver on what Musk promises. Particularly at a $35k price point like the Chevy Bolt. If Musk’s mouth would simply stop writing checks that Tesla can’t cash, this kind of thing wouldn’t happen as

He probably won’t have any decent food there either. Worst yet he’ll make us wait a few hours to show us pictures.

Why do we need it, they sell a perfectly capable crossover that gets better mileage and does 99% of the jobs of the Trailblazer. What doe this do that the Traverse doesn’t? The Traverse seats 8 and Tows 5200lbs what more do you need?

Somebody say dimensional drift?

Their coverage of Tesla has been hysterically sycophantic, to the point of embarrassment. Do I enjoy pointing out their flagrant biases and hypocrisy? Yes I do. So sue me.

Meanwhile, if this had been Mary Barra, you’d write an article about what a bunch of out of touch shitheads GM are and how stupid they are for alienating potential customers. Then Reddit would make the story go viral, and GM would be inundated with Twitter and email harassment until they kowtowed and gave the guy a

That’s because they don’t need to give a shit about the Corolla or Camry, because people who buy a Corolla or Camry generally don’t give a shit about driving. They want an inoffensive appliance that gets them from A to B reliably and comfortably, which is exactly what those cars do.
