I mean...I’m in awe of anyone who has the skills and planning aptitude to throw something like this together and actually make it work,plus I never thought I’d see a Yugo that looked desirable (I initially thought this was a Renault 5 turbo)

You spent $50,000 to make a $5,000 car.

Just because it’s knee-jerk doesn’t mean it’s wrong...

Read the Word YUGO and hovered over the CP Button, then I saw two 500CI Motors and a roll cage and NP was clicked

This is one of those you “You did it? Wow, great” things. Calling it a Yugo is like calling Ken Block’s car a Mustang (which I think is awesome). Sure it has some of the panels, but really it is wearing a Yugo hat. Even if you dropped a zero, I don’t know if I would want it.

Here’s a lot of parts from different cars - $25,500.  

More likely scenario: too little too expensive.

Pretty sure that’s a Lambo Buell dude.

I know a faster way:

Tl;dr: But I have to assume the procedure is as follows...

Oh wow, look. Another Gizmodo Musk hit-piece.

Ranking of ventilators that I’d want to be hooked up to;

While I do agree that Musk shouldn’t be tweeting about things he clearly does not understand, this article is also putting more eyeballs on his batshit tweets. Moral of the story is that you shouldn’t be getting any information from anything other than a highly vetted source(like a medical journal, where peers in that

Not gonna lie, it looks good in that color and the top is pretty cool.

That blue is the bee’s knees.

So with a horrible federal response to a global pandemic”

jalopnik is so crap these days.

Let’s be fair, that Model Y saw more off-road time than 98% of Evoques ever will. Or Macans. Or X3s. Or GLAs. Or Foresters. Or Escapes. Or Equinoxes (or whatever the hell Chevy makes now).  Heck, it probably saw more off-road time than 95% of Wranglers, Discoveries, and Raptors ever will, too. 

In terms out outright off-road capability (i.e. the ability to traverse treacherous obstacles), I’m not so sure EVs will offer a huge advantage. ICE off-roaders have tremendous crawl ratios that yield loads of wheel torque even at low RPM, and they’ve got fully locked differentials ensuring that all wheels spin at the

With 6.6" of ground clearance, I don't think I'd risk hopping the curb.  Depends on the front lip clearance, I guess.
