Water condensation and ice are pretty well understood in the automotive environment. For example, Mercedes uses a heater on their ADAS cameras (and has for years) — see the heater wires in the pic below:

The car looks pretty good in the pictures, but it is absolutely not worth $6500...

I think that the major problem here is that a nearly -5000 lb, AWD, extremely-high-torque vehicle requires significant amounts of computer control to drive in a sporty manner. The engineers optimize this to go as fast as possible, and it ends up pretty boring because the computer is doing all the hard stuff.

No doubt you can engineer some paints that are ‘white’ all the way through the near infrared and beyond, and these will reflect a lot of the sun’s energy away from your vehicle, Spectralon, for example.

Her requirements: CUV, AWD, 90lb dog, and ‘leather’

Yeah, I *personally* would never ride a bike on roads in my state the way I did years ago when I was growing up. Dedicated bike paths are great, and some trails are good, too, but I find that about 50% of cyclists treat trail-walking pedestrians like FSD treats bikes.

Cell phone cameras 100% do NOT include a polarization filter. You can buy an add-on filter from Amazon, though.

I agree that Tesla’s system is not really capable given their relatively tiny computer and 1.3 Megapixel cameras. (Did they upgrade those to higher resolution yet??)

Unfortunately a full AI datacenter cannot come close to replicating the human brain, so that little AI processor in the Tesla stands 0 chance of replicating the abilities of the human vision perception system.

So you’re  asking for a base model Camaro with an MT and a corvette badge?

No. You literally explain why this is false with, “this means plowing millions of dollars into building new factories, developing new designs and researching the kind of tech”. Ford is paying to develop new tech and build factories, not paying $100K of expenses to build every $50K Mach-E

Just watch out for hydrolock on that 3800 SeriesII! It’s got a coolant channel that runs through the plastic intake manifold, which is right above the exhaust manifold. The intake will eventually melt and dump coolant in the cylinders, or onto the ground (if you’re lucky).

Stellantis let Chrysler and Dodge basically go extinct for lack of new vehicles for the past ~15 years except for the Dodge Hornet (rebadged Alpha) which was apparently pushed out the door before it was fully tested.

But the various search engines online still force you to select ‘checked luggage’ and ‘premium economy’ or similar to get real price for the traditional airline ticket.

Whatever you buy, make sure it has the 360-degree camera top-down display. As long as the in-laws aren’t too stubborn to use it, it’ll stop them from accidentally backing into random stuff.

I guess the one advantage for open seating on SW was the lack of seating fees. Most flights I try to book basically require you to pay $20+ extra to get a guaranteed window or aisle seats. I guess this historically helped the airlines advertise ‘lower’ prices in price search engines. Now when I search for a flight,…
