In all fairness a Tahoe is very expensive (1/2 ton chassis) dinosaur with a lot of capability. The Model X has a dozen features that a Tahoe can’t come close to, beginning with not having a gasoline subscription that never ends. If we want to talk about towing capacity the Tahoe wins. My advice go drive a Model X,…

If you substitute willingness to change for “compromise” your points make more sense. Why should you spend 2-3X more for the Tesla’s you cited in your example comparison? go drive one and you’ll immediately be aware that your $37K minivan not only isn’t a technology platform, its a dinosaur.

The ol’ EVs are too expensive argument “...hovering somewhere around $64,000, most models are out of reach for most Americans”. Remind me again how expensive the top selling vehicle in America, the Ford F-150, is? The Ford F-150 seems to be within reach to a LOT of Americans these days. In comparison to a common $70,…

Absolutely yes; “...motorsport in general has been plagued by a desire to generate entertainment at the cost of consistency and safety” . This is exactly what NASCAR has been doing for at least the last 15 years and legacy drivers have been very vocal about it. NASCAR is a testament to what can happen to a sport when e…

Maybe the data is based on Tik Tok shorts.

The phase ends in your late 30s or 40s when you make enough money that you can pay your bills, eat out regularly if desired, and fill your gas tank (buy an EV) without wondering when payday is. Contrary to popular belief, you’re 20s is the stage of life where you invest in yourself, education, occupation whatever and…

Nope, but they have cheap taste and don’t know the first thing about food, just taste. I’ve eaten at several chain restaurants since Gen Z focus became a thing and i’m convinced there’s someone reheating chicken nuggets in the back covering them with sauce and gladly selling them for $15.99 for 7 laughing all the way…

OMG, so true. I had no idea there wasn’t a British understanding of how to make basic mexican dishes until I watched that episode. As a US West Coaster, I found it hysterically odd and caught myself yelling at the TV.

Well said. I 100% agree the Food Network has a history of ruining shows for the sake of the American audience that loves seeing every show in the elimination format of Survivor, (enough already). This is exactly why so many shows like the Original Top Gear, the Grand Tour, Clarksons Farm and the GBBS actually resonate…

As an American admirer of the show I have to admit i’ve enjoyed so much about it, its refreshing, calming and honest to watch. I found the Mexican food episode especially hysterical since everyone was so clueless.

Exactly; write an article promoting something to make something already dangerous more dangerous, and then expect me to celebrate your stupidity for not investing in quality gear.

Classic hyperbole Jalopnik headline. As a rider, I do everything to avoid riding in the rain or any number of conditions that will increase the chances that some distracted driver will plow into me, or that i’ll end up on the pavement. Sure, I ride with $2500 in high tech gear everytime I throw my leg over the bike…

Here’s my advice for Toyota to grab early success in the EV market while setting the stage for long term dominance; focus on the underserved youth market. Take advantage of the low hanging fruit and build the following:

Sorry, you’re over qualified to enter NASCAR “...is also fourth on the Supercars all-time wins list with 76 race victories. He grew up karting and dirt-track racing and has success in sports car racing”.

Ask yourself this question: Does Tesla just build electrified versions of typical automotive platforms? Ha, ha, ha...nope. In 2012 did they just introduce an electrified sedan that could just do what a normal ICE sedan could do? or did they introduce the market to previous unheard of technology while GM was still…

I’ve been following Tesla for 10 years; the surest way to lose a Tesla bet is to bet against them. Just remember those immortal words of Bob Lutz in 2012 “nobody want’s an electric car...they want a V8" how’s that working out anyways? Bob has ate his words against Tesla so many times, he can’t keep up with his own…

Congratulations on calling the dealer on what amounts to fraud. Consumers are constantly exposed to subtle and not so subtle fraud all the time to the point that it’s the new benchmark, and there’s clearly incentive to keep doing it. If I were to go into law as a profession it would be consumer protection since…

Areed; seeing Will. i. am clearly impersonating an orchestra director was the first hint that what was about to happen was a hip-hop themed shi* show.

But does American pre-race hipe have to include Hip Hop style introductions? “Yo, yo, yo, here’s my boy...”and all that bullsh** thats where my hang up is. What seems appropriate in Oakland, or LA may not actually be the right fit for the sports image. 

I just watched the driver introductions so I could see it for myself; sh** Show. I need some eye wash to get it out of my short term memory. Right off the bat there’s a harsh reality that needs to be addressed: Hip Hop culture isn’t my first choice to represent America on the worlds stage; enough already “WHAT’S UP…
