Additionally, the glaring inefficiency in ICEs are not in the transmission of power (the old 85% transmission of power rule is simply not accurate anymore), in parasitic loss, etc. While all these things help, the glaring inefficiency is in the loss of 85% of the FUELs energy - mostly in the form of heat. Harnessing…

Still fighting.............verbally this time.

The ginger is to blame. He’s what gamers call a “try-hard.” I can’t understand why they hired Chris Harris, yet don’t use him for the power lap-ready car reviews. Such a waste.

My parents and my wife both enjoyed watching old Top Gear with me. I loved that about the show. My wife has no interest in cars whatsoever, but she’d voluntarily sit down with me and watch. My dad became a real fan of it.

I would guess that the cigarette is one of the least dangerous things in that photo.

Part of the reason why the crowd of people who romanticize the old racing days feel that way is precisely the display of vices/activities that are much more controlled in our PR hyper aware culture. Nobody fell in love with wanting to be James Hunt because they saw a picture of him with all the women photoshopped out.

If you think this is bad, check out the video that McLaren recently put out about its first carbon fiber Formula One car.

You don’t know the history of airbags. The government has insisted upon the unbelted male standard since day one. It has killed people since it was first implemented. It has killed people who would have lived otherwise. Your dear government implemented this standard despite knowing full well that it would cost people…

The general consensus on that car was that the price reflected the work put into it, and as we all know the sum is never more than the parts, or in many people’s minds even the equal. any car priced over $10K US is automatically CP…

And just to remind everyone that not only was there a point to Oldsmobile once, it was actually GM’s hottest brand:

So Michigan is Alissa Walker’s wet dream.

And the pedestrians they DO hit will be too poor to sue them.

Good thinking, Michigan. They’ll be peas in a pod with all of the ownerless houses.

Hey Chris, when EVERYBODY else is the problem, you are the problem.

I bet they’re all safer than a motorcycle with five people on it, which is realistically what these cars are competing with. Making the cars safer will make them more expensive, which will make more people stick with the motorcycles, which will make them less safe.

I’m sure a lot will cancel after two years, three years, and then four years of still waiting for their car.

So perfect for BMWs current target consumer.

Have you been to Cleveland? This probably helps level them back out.

It's only a matter of time before one of these robots goes autonomous, and impresses a Mongolian Horde enough to become their ruler, and gain the title Khal Dogo.

This is why I love April 1st: The one day of the year everything on the Internet is treated with the doubt the other 364 days deserve.
