i just submitted the mirage for the most exciting mundane car

holy shit... you’re telling me for half a mill I can have myself a machine that can bore a few hundred miles of tunnel!?!?

Those rates sound amazing. In our case we charge at my wife’s work about 95% of the time which is free.

Watch out Ricky Bobby…. He’s coming for you. 

that only comes to 33hp....

it depends on where you live I think. here in the SF bay area, at home we pay between $0.30 and $0.38/kwh... and its still cheaper than gas by a long shot. it’s about the equivalent of 80~90mpg where we live.

first of all.... car site or not. human rights are at stake here. they’ve already started stripping women of their rights, and are questioning everyone’s right to freely travel from state to state.

oh yeah that exploder is a good one... so mundane i forgot we even had one growing up (a 98)... it was a fantastic car. it was reliable, predictable, drove quite nice, towed just fine, and did everything we asked it to do. the seats folded flat, with plenty of space to sleep back there for camping.

insurance fraud possibly?... be careful out there and always run your dash cam.

I doubt they’re going to take much of a hit.... raw materials they buy today wont be a finished product in showroom floors for another 6~9 months...

there’s a team that races one of these at 24 hours of lemons. 

I have a 92 K1500 ext cab 4x4 with the 350, and 103k miles that I use for towing and chores.... as a vehicle imo it scores below average in every single category you can think of. but much like a swiss army knife, it does everything I need it to do... quite underwhelmingly... but it’s so cheap to keep/run i cant

I’m gonna go a little off brand here and say “2022 Mitsubishi Mirage”

You already said it, but I’ll say it again.

Fairly certain this is a typo.

They decode. Model, body style, emissions code, engine… this one should be 56 in position 7/8 iirc. The 2.3liter engine is 53 if I recall.

C) this could potentially shorten runway distance as well, allowing aircraft to land at airports with shorter runways, that may be limited by urban sprawl/expansion.

this will also be super interesting as to what this does for runway distances too, possibly allowing the 380 to land/take off from airports that are limited by runway distance.

San Jose, CA is NorCal, my friend.... so ya got us all a little confused, like that Acura is in San Diego (SC), vs the GTI is in Hayward (SFBay).

triple digit horsepower and 5th would have been kinda cool.
