The whole thing can be boiled down to something that’s fairly obvious in the video: it’s a 2WD F-150. Even if they weighed the same, the Tesla would still win because it has twice the traction from twice the number of driven wheels.

Yeah, FCA is being petty and stupid about this. The Roxor doesn’t compete with anything Jeep currently makes. They’re two completely different vehicles that look similar.

Who cares what lay people think? They’re not the ones buying it.

It’s a Nissan Leaf, not a Prius. Learn cars, man.

The idea of a four-door Mustang has been around since the ‘60s. So has the idea of a mid-engined Corvette. Both of those things are happening now. People like to have fits about “new” things, but both of these things have been a long time coming.

Thank you! So many people are freaking out about the Mach-E as if it’s a Charger situation, but it’s not. The Mach-E isn’t a replacement for the Mustang. It’s a spinoff. The coupe isn’t going anywhere, nor is it any less of a Mustang just because something else exists with the name and badge on it.

I genuinely love the idea of an IROC-E.

That’s a nice one! Battery’s shot, though - range should be around 90 miles, not 15. It would be a good candidate for a lithium battery swap.

I have a few:

Can we start a petition to just fucking yeet Jeremy Clarkson into the sun? Please?

Found the person who’s never experienced instant torque.

Medium has gotten a bit clickbait-y lately. I’m tempted to try this trick, but I’m also tempted to not bother.

Dear automakers: Make more goddamn electric cars!

That improves every list.

The Bloomberg article is excellent. Car people tend to idolize Shelby as some sort of racing god, but as an actual person, he was pretty crappy sometimes, as were most of the other men in charge (and they were almost all men).

OK gatekeeper.

I haven’t seen Ford v Ferrari yet, and the brilliance of this article is making me not want to.

I actually followed the link back to her Instagram, and among a bunch of bizarre pseudoscience and spirituality (and butt-sunning) stuff, I found this gem of a meme:

“One of our actors, I won’t say which one..”
