Those are “needs” based on your choice to live in a spread out community. That is a choice you made, and it comes with consequences, namely that you have to use a car. I’m with you on that completely, it is your choice to make, I am not trying to say you can’t or shouldn’t live in a community like that.

Thank you.

Exactly zero remain supported.

Interestingly, there is a small piece of fixed glass on the rear door of almost every car made. It is the cheapest window to replace and it literally exists as a sacrificial window to reach in and unlock the door. Obviously, you’d want to smash the one opposite where the baby is sitting, so the baby doesn’t get…

Noveau rich are the same everywhere. There. Sorted.

I don’t disagree, but part of the reason battery fires are so dangerous is because all 3 parts of the triangle are within the battery cells. Much of the battery becomes the fuel, specifically the cobalt and out-gassing byproducts. Correct me if I’m wrong, but I believe the ignitable gases are Fluoride and Hydrogen…

That’s nothing, my dealership has outright REFUSED to give me my free lifetime oil changes they promised on my new EV.

What makes this article newsworthy is the amount of efficiency lost not the fact that they are losing efficiency at all.

I mean, I hate the guy to his core, and I will never buy a Tesla, myself. But as the Model Y just became Europe’s best-selling car, they’re doing well in the states, and they just won the format wars for charging, it’s pretty safe to say they’re not in a position to be saved. Perhaps Elon might get his ass handed to…

Surveys like this are harmful to the market because most people are probably willing to stream ESPN to their car or pay for a Hotspot to keep their kids on Disney+, but I’d genuinely like to see the take rate as we get lower and lower on the list, below, especially when the free trial runs out. A good example are the…

I’m pretty involved in City Council meetings. I ended up being friends with the mayor/council because I shook up a major downtown project that was being flown under the radar, and technically, I ended up triggering a lawsuit against the former council.

Came to say the same thing. Registration costs are based on GVWR, and it’s already well known that less fuel-efficient cars burn more of those tax-raising gallons, so why not have it both ways? Honestly, it should be based on the car’s MPG/MPGe rating, IMO, at least for now. As more people continue to switch to more…

She (thought she) was able to monetize on something she put no effort into.

There’s also the reason lower-priced neighborhoods are lower-priced - the locations often aren’t great.

I have mixed feelings. Full disclosure, I’m part of the problem, since I pay monthly for one of those car washes that went up at the entrance to a lower/middle-class neighborhood.

At this point, I think their best chance is to argue that the car wash is “woke.”

To me, it seems like giant piston from the engine of a huge ship:

I’m more entertained by DeSantis claiming that the insurance companies will come back after Hurricane season is over.  Just the kind of insurance company I want!  A company that will gladly take my money in the off season, then disappear at the first sight of a dark cloud.

I’ve always wondered if AIs change over time because of their usage and outputs. If enough people inputted enough “harmful” questions, such as “Why does 2+2=5?” would the system eventually come to believe that 2+2=5?

1. It’s not so simple for an EV to pull that off. Yes, there is a percentage write-off so they can fix and sell the vehicle with a salvage title, but there are a few problems with that mentality. In many states, a total loss comes with a certificate of destruction. It means the car can never be registered for road…
