Have a “shrinking” problem? Then talk to your doctor to see if Stellantis® is right for you.

David, The deal with an independent front suspension (or independent rear suspension for that matter) vs. a solid axle is all about roll center heights and roll stiffness. Stop me if you already know this but the roll center of a suspension is effectively the pivot point that the body rolls around when you go around a…

The headlining picture looks to be a Trailblazer, not a Blazer.

You should probably know these things before making comments. Tesla actually has one of the highest profit margins on their vehicles in the entire industry. In Q1 Tesla’s gross margins hovered between 20.3% and 24.7% which is about double most other brands.  Just like you described with Amazon, Tesla reinvests these…

Amazon did not turn a profit for a long time.  Making cars requires even more overhead.

I believe that you are correct. What Musk “gets” is the OPTION to buy shares at $350. So with todays stock price, thats a great deal. But as the article notes, he has to hold for 5 years and stay at the top of Tesla before he could sell any.

Musk is a guy who has been a massive market disruptor. Tesla has made electric cars mainstream and viable. Space rocket launches have become privatized and affordable and repeatable. The man is a visionary who delivers. For all his faults, the guy already has a legacy that people won’t forget. Know what he’s worth?…

Trying to scroll through an article and having ads load and change my place on the page? Instant close tab. The definition of mildly…

Go for it, no one's stopping you.

We need to talk about “we need to talk about” headlines. They’re the most Jezebel thing about Jalopnik. Just stop.

You don’t think he cares about popularizing the automated, electric car? Well, he’s a pretty good hobbyist then.

Your must be living in a pretty dark world right now as all the Musk bashing still not working out for you.

i can have more than enough fun with 175-250hp on track days. moar power doesn’t always equal moar enjoyment at the track.

This.

Is it still going to look ridiculous?

Also, warranted 315HP/370lbft is $850 and a dealer visit away.

I was going to be a snarky idiot and say “How much have you spent so far? And shouldn’t you have just purchased a new bike?” and then I realized everyone could say this about any car that I buy and then break as I try to fix things...
