Yeah, that was my first thought as well. I thought it looked like a kit car. 

i bet a stick shift would have solved this.

Take your damn star.

screams in 70's British!

The first thing that tipped them off... 154 tubes of toothpaste but only one toothbrush.

I second this!

I took delivery of a fully loaded white Core about 2 weeks ago and I share the same sentiments. It’s a phenomenal car that harkens back to the 2000s when STis and EVOs ruled the roost. It feels old school and new school at the same time. The new school stuff is mostly imperceptible to the driver. The engine shakes and…

I think you failed to add /s at the end, eh? 

*looks at my 2017 bolt which has cost me less than $20 of electricity to run for the last year and has always been charged at home*

The planet thanks you.

The Roman quadriga of the era was not known for its reliability either, a lot like modern Italian supercars, very stylish but then the wheels fall off... 

OMG, Jesus Christ on a Taco!

Lawrence, you had a great opportunity to investigate this story, but instead you wrote a short piece with little depth. For some reason you focused on attacking California based on a list of items in a paragraph that you didn’t investigate. Writing a list of assumptions in a single paragraph just opens up the…

Luckily there is promising battery technology on the horizon that is better than LiON batteries and uses zero Lithium. 

Telsa and Wall Street in a nutshell.

When they “revealed” the Cyber Truck, they brought in a half-baked prototype, shot a nice own-goal by damaging glass in a demo supposed to show how indestructible it was, and promised a release timeline that was ridiculous to any reasonable observer even on that day. This time around, they showed two vehicles under…

2nd gear and 5th gear is clearly writing on the wall that all is not rosy with car makers taking the plunge into a pure EV strategy. If it was, Polestar would not be posting operating losses of nearly $1B. Sure, some of that is still incurring the initial costs of R&D, new platform development, and tech to productioniz…

I just prefer to assume they REALLY hate driving the same car 2 days in a row.

Three-time 4Runner owner here. Yes, they run a long time but a 1990 with 150,000 miles on the clock is not “just getting started in life”. A 2015 with 150,000 miles maybe, but not a 33-year-old truck. It’s like saying a 69-year-old man is just getting started in life because he hasn’t traveled much.

Meanwhile, my parents took an annual trip to see the grandparents with two kids, in a 2 door Buick Skyhawk. Yep, we had a J car, with the slightly better but still horrible 2.0l. One year we had no heat, and drove through snow and ice in that little 2 door Skyhawk. My grandmother was pissed, and paid to have the heat…
