these things may stand a chance in LA traffic, even at 28mph, the narrow body should give it the advantage of being able to split lanes. it would really give it the OJ meets Italian job vibe. though loaded with gold, it may struggle in the hills.

i had one as a rental for work once..... these things fuckin sucked. the ergonomics and positioning were right there in line with the chevy trax

I had a fanatic that died on me. They weren’t super helpful.

Havent owned a Pontiac, but the Volvos of that era in the T5 and manual are an absolute blast to drive, and they’re pretty similar on paper… late 90’s produced some of the best cars imo. Easy to mod (ECUs weren’t super locked down either), cheap, still tons of good support, and OBD 2 is super helpful with engine…

Sometimes the idea is already in their head, and it takes someone else saying they can’t do it, in order to push them over the edge and just go do it.

It would bring joy to my heart and soul, watching some Christians freak the fuck out because their holiday is being moved to the front of the month. 

Lol. Stock tires.

I ran a set of those 730s on my 24hrs of lemons car. Those things were awesome. I feel like they’re cheap because of the issues they had with the 720’s, which they seemingly fixed in the 730.

Yeah. That’s def too much stretch. Most manufacturers don’t spec tires with the intent of it being driven on a track. I’d be worried that the sidewall is gonna get ripped apart like that. 

youre right... and honestly, i think we need to get away from the idea that we need to all congregate at a specific station to charge... chargers can easily be everywhere... base of a power pole/street light? charger. restaurant? chargers. grocery store? chargers. corner store? chargers... etc.

yeah... anecdotal. we have a BEV, and the times we used a public charger, we’d just get food and eat in the car while we waited the few extra min to get the range we needed. and we arent the high end financial demographic either... we just got an insane deal on the car to where a new BEV was cheaper than gas.

you can run the AC or heat while charging....

it has a smell. not windex smell but it has a smell.... though I will say, from my experience it is hands down the best window cleaner ive ever used... I keep a can under the sink, and use it on my glasses every morning too.

You can save a boatload of time and money by not washing your car at all. (some years I give it a quick wipe down during the first and last rain of the season, but during the summer, it collects all the dirt.)

Did this loop by bike a couple years ago… there was zero traffic. It was amazing.

I’m sure we’ll kick the can down the road… but the thing is that if you say 2040…. They’ll kick it to 2045… this at least lights a fire under everyone’s ass to make those moves.

What do you do to fight the drift from your Nintendo switch controllers?

I was like “wait  couple bolts to remove the cowl and squeeze your arm in there is easy enough.” So I looked it up and holy shit… they put that thing behind the gas pedal. So weird… very Ford thing to do.

Are you comparing the 2 row to the mav? The mav is still a smaller truck. I have a 92 k1500. And I definitely feel dwarfed amongst newer 1500’s these days. I would say that my tuck feels like the size of a newer Colorado or a ranger.

there is a limit. unfortunately that limit, even for passenger vehicles is 14 feet.
