That’s from 2014. So for example, the 500 still fails the small overlap horribly. The ford explorer on the other hand went from poor to moderate for the driver. so at lest ford decided to add a welded on strike plate to divert the impact. Fiat said... nahhh. That’s despite doing such things for other FCA vehicles even…

Yes it is worse. Super as a prefix means above or beyond. A supercharger in a car takes the charge above or beyond what you would get in a naturally aspirated engine. A tesla super charging station takes you above and beyond what you would get from a normal charging station. And that’s true. They will outperform what…

The kia soul has WAAAAAAAAAYY more room than the kick, hr-v and ch-r.

nissan spent money developing a good seat design to be able to be adapted across their lineup. When I went test sitting things last time I went shopping, they seemed to have done a damn good job of making a comfy seat with reasonable bolstering for the applications I was shopping. They put them in $22k cars.

Not mine, and not lots of new cars. You kind of need to drive like you are riding a motorcycle. Keep your head on a swivel and always be looking. Even if paying attention, keeping your head in one place has huge blind spots on newer cars that just weren’t there even a decade or so ago.

Except electric cars DON’T need to just cover your daily commute unless you can afford to keep an extra vehicle for all the other things a 150 mile range makes impractical.

I see it and it says “we rebooted the delorean”. Now they just need to convince hollywood to remake back to the future and to make a the time machine based on their prototype.

I’m guessing they have more boost to offer and spare cooling capacity to cool the charge air. In that case, you could overcome the altitude with boost. 

Jalopnik: Why are crossovers a thing? Why is everyone not just driving brown manual, six speed, turbo charged sports wagons?!?!?!

It’s a crack pipe price. Is it faster than an optioned out camry? Maybe... barely. You can get faster and better handling for less money.

Labor participation rate is up as well. Just not higher than pre-2007 levels. Although I don’t know if we’ll get back there until the boomers start dying in large numbers.

I slightly disagree. You don’t have to go weird, you just have to go deliberate and interest based.

Those things have been around for quite some time and generally work quite well for most cats, but not at all on some. I had one very shiny black cat that despite liking getting pet with the glove, was completely immune from it’s powers of grooming.

TO quote MSNBC’s producer

You have a very poor sense of scale. I suspect that if you took all the fossil fuels ever used in motorsport, preparing for motorsport, shipping motorsport related things around, etc. and added it up, it likely would not buy us a day in terms of current global usage of fossil fuels. 

Why fuck these guys? The studio was literally dead, and to make it worse their back catalog was more or less pulled. If they get teh back catalog back on the shelf like they say, that’s a net positive even if they never produce anything new that isn’t garbage. There’s a ton of garbage in every game store that you…

And if your cat doesn’t like their bizarre poop hole, they will just shit all over your house. It’s a win-win really.

Were this 2010, the auto makers probably would have loved Trump’s policy change. At this point, there is little value in it since they have a fairly homogeneous and well defined regulatory environment to deal with.

Yup, we have a couple of folks in my office who are apartment dwellers with EVs. They moved our office. The old location had half a dozen EV charging spots so as long as they could score one every other day for a bit, they were golden. The new location has zero and they are fucked. Dunno if they swapped with their…

I haven’t compared them side by side, but seeing a few around the work parking lot, I’d say very comparable to the honda fit IMO.
