It’s not hard for most modern vehicles to get a lead to and from the battery for constant power. The capacitors could fill in that downtime at say a start up or a run down post an accident that pops the battery.

To be fair, It probably wasn’t long till the jeep did this on it’s own.
The tires weren’t dragging. See the engine spinning instead of the tires disappearing under friction.
It’s not that hard considering the weight and torque that most RV’s are pulling around. Especially and diesel ones.
Go through his backlog and pick about everything he has done illegal in his videos and put online for the world to see that haven’t hit the statute of limitations.
Better yet do it for every one of these stupid channels.
This is about a perfect time to start annual vehicle inspections mandated nation wide.
Have inspectors enforce those fun laws like seeing off-road use only parts removed as well as things like headlight height laws, ride height laws based on OEM crash structure position statements, and more. CHECK PEOPLE’S TIRES AND…
1st gear. The issues you are talking about is more of an issue of the direct injection than the deactivation on demand system. carbon buildup is the largest contributor to the issues on modern engines with only direct injection.
Most builders of long lasting engines will have a small secondary injector to spray down…
Naw. Gas at $4 a gallon will do that well enough to themselves.
Toss on the BMW, Audi, Mercedes offerings in that segment as well.
It’s kinda weird that companies are wanting to launch new models into a dying segment. Toyota pulling their profitable Land Cruiser is a BIG tell for the market’s direction.
Hell most of these big SUV owners would be MUCH better served with a minivan.
For $85k starting, yes.
And yet a minivan will do exactly what you are asking here with better MPG, longer range between stops, MORE interior room, and typically half the price of this thing. Not to mention more family oriented niceties like built in vacuums, hybrid tech to help around the city, fold flat front to back seating that you don’t…
Toyota for decades used NiCad batters because they are more recyclable in the Prius. This however is biting them for backing the wrong battery tech and suppliers for the future. Now they are scrambling to play catch up.
The battery for the Honda Odyssey is an oddball. It has a control board of some sort inside it that most other batteries don’t need It’s more expensive because it is an additional process.

Again it is a LOT less trickle down tech. In the past we had MASSIVE safety leaps and alloy innovations coming from F1 as well as fluid treatment tech. Traction Control was straight from the crucible of F1. Synthetic oils, active suspension, tuned dampeners, turbo efficiency gains (80's and now,) and many more. It is…
It used to be that there was a trickel down of tech from F1 to other series or commercial products. As it is ow the F1 rule book is so strange that the parts are truly alien compared to how a normal commercial car works.
I wish they would make the DC chargers around here more. NOLA is a dead zone for public DC charging. The neighbors have a Tesla DC charger in their house that doubles as a home backup generator. HOWEVER due to Tesla NOT wanting to make a CCS2 adapter it’s kinda sad.
They COULD be making a killing by selling adapters…
If it is a cultural norm then it does the opposite of defining you. It just turns you into another of the faceless.
Look at a biker rally. Would a guy with no beard and slicked back hair in a suit be the norm or the oddball? Take that same standard biker in a leather vest and jeans and shaved head. Toss him in say…
Simply remove the light truck category. Stick that to the smaller Ranger and smaller sizes.
Have the same safety standards on them as cars and the same MPG regulations. Close the overhang/shadow cast loophole.
If you want to manipulate the market so much then push the same standards industry wide.
Give them the same…
Seeing those footrests and what the kids do in a car that has no center console, the yes. it does seem popular.
