Don’t forget about the multiple instances of kids finding their way into landing gear and only being found when they fall out as an ice cube when dropping the gear to land.

You over rate the Model S.

I remember when I was young that my older brother’s friends had early fox body mustangs. 85mph speedo. The thing would sweep across relatively fast. Then one changed the rear end ration without updating the speedo gear. Sweep even faster!

Ah yes, the vague comment where you are not sure if you found the sexual assault supporter or if they are just bitching about Jalopnik grammar.

Haha. No.

True.

Why poke fun at yourself when you can redirect all those insecurities to others while hiding behind the toughness that is your new RAV-4?

That’s way better than drilling the bumper or having an entirely separate piece for plates or not (Audi, looking at you).    Plus, there are generally tons of items on cars that are held on with 3m tape without issues, it could be done without damaging the paint.  Will Tesla do it right?   Dunno, but I feel like using…

Clear tailights are the main reason Nissan is in the position they are today, IMO.

Don’t be so sure about the longer roof, at least as it pertains to usable space.  In my experience from the mk6/second gen era, the Sportback felt smaller inside because of the more streamlined roof. Head room on the Audi was a major compromise, hatch space was deeper but the opening and height was also a compromise.

Haven’t been in the newest cars, but had thousands of miles of seat time in the last VW/Audi hatches that were comparable in the US - the last of the mk6's and the second gen facelifted Sportback A3s. The VW had the better interior hands down. Audi has a way of over complicating things. The infotainment on the VW was…

I am not so sure that this thing just wasn’t ahead of it’s time.   I am not saying it’s good, just that it seems we are getting closer to a point where something like this would have a solid market.

Hate all you want on the 85mph speedos, but they were they only way to get any sensation of speed in the cars of the time, including that crap Corvette.

Don’t get me started with the crinkle finish frame or what appears to be an bare case steering box.

This and those hideous engine covers that don’t come close to matching the aesthetic of the truck.  Just take that crap off, the LS bits under it would look more appropriate. 

Never mind that the morons that post stuff like this are the same people fighting to keep coal burning plants going. Failing on a massive scale, but still trying.

It’s not a race car. It’s a 911. A very competent and fun road car, that also can be tuned up for the track really well. As such, the MacPherson strut is easier to service, less parts, less space, and works 99.5% as well pure performance wise.  Now that the car is getting larger, the extra space probably isn’t at such…

No.

How about an article that goes into depth on how they compromised the flying performance of the plane to save money and how that compromise foundation still exists?

Without redundancy, on a sensor known to fail, when the planes had more than one sensor to work with anyway - if I am not mistaken.
