While most don’t pay upfront for their phones, the overall cost is the same if they buy it outright now, or split over the course of 2 years. The price doesn’t change.

Xbox (XB) One (O) X (X) = XBOX. It’s the Xbox XBOX! Ok, I’ll see myself out now.

Nope.

While that is true, it is significantly cheaper for Tesla to make an AWD vehicle than it is for manufacturers using an ICE to do the same.

They had the test subjects run at 80% for the thirty minutes. Even Nike accepted the results.

No one has immunity for accidental killings, especially in a situation like this. One way or another, they will pay for it, whether that be jail time or a civil suit.

In another article, they also lied to the dealership and claimed they were federal agents (not legal).

Considering the other two are hybrids, you are correct. If they were full electric, not so much.

It’s worth noting the engine in the Mazda Speed Miata is a different engine than the regular Miata, and lacked the variable valve timing of the NA cars during that time frame. I’d guess the cost of putting a totally different engine and upgraded components was too much to justify longer than the two years it was…

On the Solstice and Sky...wasn’t that more of a result of GM going bankrupt than anything else?

I think it has to do more with companies trying to keep the costs of manufacturing low in the US by using robots and automation as much as possible instead of employing humans. Great idea in principle, but to be profitable, it’s going to be highly automated with fewer workers than people think it will require.

The Taurus X/Freestyle become the Explorer (redesign did wonders for it). The Veloster, while odd, seems to sell very well in Central Ohio. I see them all over the place.

I agree completely. If they had put regular doors on the back, I bet this would sell nearly as well as the S.

The Miata has been sold since 1989, so of course you are going to see more of them. The twins have only been around for five years.

It reminds of what a modern interpretation of a coupe version of the Solstice would have been with a Chevy face on it. Maybe they were tossing around the idea of resurrecting that platform for this?

Razer comes the closest to this.

For what it’s worth, the same dealer has a second 92 SVX with a 5 speed swap and a turbo...probably a time bomb, but looks good

You may want to dig a little deeper into Apple and security. The NSA (Government) has (and I’m sure others do now) the ability to modify iPhones and Macs where the malware they use to spy is reinstalled (from the BIOS/local storage) even if you wipe the OS and start over. Plus they only design their stuff here. They…

I had one as a rental car, and aside from the transmission jumping all over the place, I actually liked the car compared to some of the other rentals I’ve had recently.

Right. The 14% you are stating is the existing size of the factory compared to 100% potential. They have another 86% they can build, as needed. They are producing now in that 14% and will build out as demand increases. Of course if demand does not increase, they didn’t piss away money on space they didn’t need.
