Can you imagine being so petty that you care whether someone has something attached to their car that is not functional nor a risk to others?

The part about the 11 days that is so hilarious to me is that it would have been plenty passive aggressive just thanking him for his hard work for 11 days, but they went a step further thanking “many people.

Having never been touched like that by a woman before, it was all he could do to prematurely eject her.

$20 bucks for 3 hours is less than minimum wage.  That doesn’t sound great at all.

Meh, that’s a stock Wrangler. By the time it has a couple thousand dollars of modifications such as Angry Eyes, Military Grade LEDs, wheels with Ben Hur spinners, Bikini Tops, etc. it will be just as good as sitting in a parking lot outside of a mall as any of the others.

Thank you for this write up. Its perfect and ill just link to it when i see some racist asshole (is there any other kind?) on Nextdoor cite this WSJ post.

Because, we, as clever gearheads, could easily recognize that car as a Porsche 911, and we all know that on that famous car, the fuel filler is on the front fender, not where it’s shown there.

You’re thinking of the old roll-up sardine can opener. I don’t think that approach was ever used on any sort of beverage container. Attached is an image of a modern brewing company trying to “key” into the nostalgia of the “church key” cans, even going so far as to include them with the 6 pack.

Read through all the comments. So many triggered Boomers. Think I’m at a MAGA rally or something.

“Because Millennial’s were taught to hate everything that a Baby Boomer may have had anything to do with.”

And who taught them this?

I think GM’s concern is mainly about protecting the Corvette brand from dying with its customers. It has a stereotypical image as a retiree’s last sports car, much like a Lexus is an old man’s sedan of choice after a lifetime of driving the same car dressed as a Camry before they retired.

Ha. In 25 years, your kids will be putting chrome wheels on their cars and mocking their parents for their wheel choices.

Great article, and provides a lot of good examples of why the AV dreams are so overblown. There are so many edge-use cases that would completely bewilder an AV that my mind boggles to imagine a world where they would even be remotely feasible outside of a controlled-access highway. How do you program an AV to approach

Because shut up, Kyle.

It’s not manual, not brown and not a wagon.  So, there.

On a GTE car, are the brake pads and rotors expected to last the entire 24hrs or are they expected to be changed during the race?
