Whilst I’m all for letting the stupid remove itself from the gene pool, I don’t particularly feel the need to assist in the process.
If you really want to save gas, shift in to neutral and shut the engine off.
The hill has no bearing on whether or not the moving components in an automatic transmission need lubrication, and fuel cut off will always use less fuel than fuel turned on.
My source was skewed. Article date said 2015, data from 2012. I didn’t read the fine print.
An automatic transmission is a very overcomplicated fluid coupling. The fluid pump is driven by the torque converter. In neutral, the torque converter is not spinning at any remarkable speed (if at all). This is why there’s the slightest bit of “lag” when shifting from P/N to R/D as the pump has to build pressure for…
The automatic Vette is deliciously smooth. First time I’ve considered an auto over its manuel counterpart.
I think the latest percentage is somewhere around 7%, up from 3.6% in 2013.
I love myself a good neutral drop! It’s the best way to send an old friend to the Viking funeral it deserves.
I’m saying it’s a ‘90s Mopar product. Rust is not a variable; it’s an inevitability
Doesn’t matter. I have a Dakota that’s spent its whole life in The Other Land that Rust Forgot, Denver, Colorado. It’s rusty. So is every other Dakota around and most Rams of this vintage (1988-2004 or so). I don’t know how Chrysler did it back then, but they sure knew how to make things rust
Electricity is fuel, is it not? Sure, it doesn’t burn but it is spent to create propulsion
I’ll likely be putting a deposit down. We’re sold on Tesla up to this point and as the Model S is too large for our needs, both the wife and I are quite excited to see the unveiling and slap some cash down!
Having watched Aliens again just last night, I wholeheartedly agree. James Cameron had the perfect eye for special effects of the era; using obfuscation and quick shots to leave just enough to the viewer’s imagination that technical limitations were, for the most part, completely overlooked.
According to that VIN, it’s a 2006 Chevrolet Impala [Invalid trim data] sedan. It has seatbelts and front driver/passenger airbags. Powering it is the LZE 3.5 V6 and it was built at the Oshawa #1 plant.
Y’know what Alissa? You’re right, to a point.
