That is awesome! You’re living my dreams I guess. Now I have to hunt for a frozen lake in ND with my C-Max this winter (this car is a sleeper in the turns when it comes to hybrids).

Ice Racing! Only possible where it’s cold as hell.

Now now....for some of us the car is the last legal place to vape/smoke anywhere.

When I meant by hilly, was uphill. I miss my stick shift car (it was too expensive to repair and I replaced it with a hybrid (damn Michigan roads!!!). I replaced it with a ford cmax (the steering/handling is out of the focus st or it felt like it since I've driven both).

Like this?

This is what a hybrid is good for. Crawling is in EV mode and is awesome.

This depends on how hilly the road is. It would be hell in Seattle, but just a merely acceptable tradeoff in Detroit.

The LEOs in my part of ND tend to have nothing to do so they do (wait for it....) nothing! Once I got followed by the State Patrol for 10 miles with my MI plate the guy scratched his head and turned around (I think he never saw an MI plate before).

You mean a petty tyrant? Cop or no cop I'm calling it as it is.

Sir, The State of Virginia will only be satisfied with your blood as payment. Thanks for reminding me how much I hate VA/MD/DC in general (I used to live in MI which is like dream compared to those states potholes and all). I decided the whole Eastern part of the country was nuts and moved to ND.

France also recycles their spent fuel to use again. Nuclear could be way safer if we either did that here (most waste recycled) or used thorium (much less chance of meltdown by its very nature + no plutonium for nukes).

Not in Germany, they somehow get up to 26% of their mains power from solar alone.

I got to drive one when I was in my teens. You have no idea until you drive one yourself.

The Ford dealer I went too didn’t even bother with putting them on in the first place. They only cared about selling F-150s and i got a C-max (this dealer was so happy to get it off the lot).

Isn’t paying up the ass for my insurance for my 20 year old car bad enough (no accidents, run front and rear dash cams)? When will it ever end? Those Allstate sales pitches in the mail will go from being pitched to pitched with a smile on my face.

It reminds me of the Opel Ampera a little bit. (the image was Kinja’d)

After finding a decomposing rat inside the conduit inside my oven (~2 in diameter) last year, anything’s possible with those suckers.

Velour makes the car awesome to be in (separate from driving)! No matter what happens, whether it’s a $300 beater that knocks to an expensive car, the velour makes the luxury.

I can see this just as another thing that breaks in a car. If it is set lower than .08 then it will probably issue false positives for anyone who lawfully takes many medications. As for possibly mandating breath ignition interlock for all cars in the future, it sounds like a nice way to spread disease for anyone…

It is set by engineers in Michigan by regulation for state or federal highways. A traffic study is required with extraordinary evidence to lower speed limits. The State Police here frequently advocate raising speed limits because they found that there were less fatalities because there were less differentials of…
