I (and many others around here) lay on the horn daily in San Francisco. During commute hours it’s a cacophony of horns as Uber drivers in the #1 and #3 lanes stop to drop off passengers, leaving only the middle lane free for traffic to flow (and consequently causing backups of epic proportions). This is further…

Public shaming. Someone blocks an intersection because they think they’re more important than everyone else? Honk. Someone stops in a lane to drop off passengers when they could have pulled over into a driveway halfway down the block? Honk. Someone drives down the bike lane and then immediately cuts over to go…

WORLDSTAR!

To be fair, a 500C with the top down has zero rear visibility.

Well, the 737 *is* the most common aircraft...

Mileage, depreciation, etc. can be written off on taxes.

Today I learned it’s STI, not STi. I’ve been writing it wrong for the past 12 years...

I think the “timing” referred to the client’s urgent need for a car, not the “timing” of his credit score.

Holy crap, a credit score of 620 and still looking to buy a $30K+ car? I’d be scouring craigslist for a cheap Accord or Camry....

As much as I like manuals, almost all CVTs get considerably better fuel economy than a manual, making it more intelligent from an economics perspective.

Economies of scale would suggest they’d take a huge loss designing, certifying, and building a Forester STI. Hell, they’re probably taking a loss with the XT which is why they’re axing it.

If Subaru can take a hatchback, throw on a lift kit, and call it a crossover, then I should be able to take a crossover, throw on a lowering kit, and call it a wagon, right?

It doesn’t help that the Camry is a much better value proposition for people who are in the market for a car like a Camry or Accord. Honda is refusing to play the pricing game, whereas Toyota is undercutting the Accord with an arguably superior car for non-car enthusiasts.

No because they hit the compression barrier. Guess what the Model X hit? The already-compressed compression barrier.

Are you familiar with that particular divider? I am; I’ve drive by it almost every day for the past 10 years. It’s not uncommon to see a driver nearly hit it at full speed because they decide to change lanes at the very last minute. I would not be surprised at all if someone hit it without braking; in fact, someone…

No, my stance is that concluding either way is speculative, whereas you’ve already concluded that autopilot was engaged.

He hit it straight on.

Nice to see people are already jumping to the conclusion that the driver was using the Autopilot feature. It’s not like other cars haven’t hit this same divider before...

My understanding is that the current Civic and current Accord both share the same modular platform.

I’m not saying RWD is unsafe in the snow. I’m saying it’s stupid to conflate sliding around and having fun with capability.
