You cannot turn off Teslas regenerative braking, unless you bought one before the 2020 update that removed that feature.

I had the experience of driving a rental Tesla Y recently. Some things were done really well, but other things were done so poorly so as to overwhelmingly cancel out any positives.

Somebody hasn’t gone 914 or 924 shopping in a while.

A good 914 is easily $20,000 now. This one is $70,000. - https://www.ebay.com/itm/166939428481?_skw=Porsche+914&itmmeta=01J80QANHP7A0HH543BD4W51GJ&hash=item26de5d868

A good 924 is like $8,000 at the minimum. This one is $18,000 - https://www.ebay.com/itm/176544500851?…

Here’s the wrap I was looking for. It pushed it from just plain bad into so bad it’s kind of adorable territory.

Who hires the pilots.

Personally, I’m REALLY looking forward to the Rivian R3. If the price is right, that’ll likely be my first EV. 

I honestly didn’t know that Hoonigan was anything other than a slogan or name. I associated it with Ken Block but that’s as far as it went for me. To discover it’s an actual business with $1.2 billion in debt blows my mind as much as those gymkhana videos. This might be part of their business problem.

Wait, so this guy bought a Cybertruck and DOESN’T want attention?!

Incurring multiple criminal charges and a whole lot of money problems when everyone involves successfully sues your ass off, while ripping off the door of your own vehicle, rather than just paying the towing fee:  When Keeping It Real Goes Wrong.

While correct about the GVWR, that still means a load of landscaping bricks or something like that in a Tundra truck bed will exceed the limit. There are plenty of non-commercial people who make trips with 1500 pounds worth of people & supplies in their truck/van, so I’d still consider that a dangerously low weight…

At 4.4 miles per kw, it’s easily one of the most efficient EV available right now. Yes, it has a big heavy battery, but in spite of that, it’s more efficient than a Bolt. Obviously, this is not the car for someone trying to save money. The wear on roads argument is silly. Roads are built to support 18 wheelers, they…

Conversely, we can still put a smaller battery in the same vehicle and run an easy 200+ miles with 500+ lbs saved, aka still way way way more miles than the vast majority of folks drive in a single day.

Also, the Lucid Air GT in its current form weighs no more than a Chevy Tahoe, of which there are hundreds of…

Can’t wait for the EV naysayers/climate denialist excuses on why this is a bad thing.

Only one I’ve forgotten about was the Buick, wish I could forget about the Daewoo. I would prefer wagon versions of most cars over the hatchback ones we do get, a Mazda 3 wagon would be great, the length of the sedan but with way more cubes than the hatchback or a CX-30.

If the federal standard is measured at a certain RPM or % throttle opening, a car can be federally legal *until* you rev the nuts off it in first gear.

Funny part it they really aren’t that loud when driven normally. When it involves noise, I’m finding more and more people are getting annoyed at ANY noise above a whisper and that to is excessive and controlling.

I think that it is ok for neighborhoods/ cities to want a peaceful environment. I don’t think that “unmodified” vehicles should be exempt from sound enforcement you should be able to short shift/keep the vehicle in a higher gear to keep the RPMs down. There is a difference between driving a loud car and being…

Any kind of lift on a full size pickup. Again, please see your doctor - there’s more effective treatments for micropenis.
