This, this, this. I say this also as an Australian living in the US because the US can pressure Scomo into pretending to give a shit about the planet and our species future.

Force retirement funds in to a minimum 25% investment into renewables.

I also would like to see it made mandatory for people to watch David…

It takes a long time to change all of the amber indicators into red ones for the NA market okay?

I would be more than happy for GT7 to take some of the best bits of GT3/4 and Forza Motorsport and smash them together. Things like the used cars, engine swaps, livery editor and less restrictive tuning/modification options with the classic tracks sounds great to me.

Maybe they can even make the cars sound good now...

But if it funds a new Celica-Supra and allows Mazda to bring their I6 to the table with a manual transmission attached....

Then I can get my dream modern BMW! AKA, a Mazda 6 with an inline six driving the rear wheels through a manual transmission.

I get to refuse to go to meetings when there are too many people invited for the room size. That’s about it beyond significantly cutting back my time on the manufacturing floor.

Strangely, manufacturing plants have continuous costs associated with them so buying something once and keeping it forever doesn’t keep the doors open.

The residual value is what helped me step in to the convenience of leasing my Si. The residual on it was 67% after 36 months. The convenience is that at the end of the lease I am moving internationally so I don’t need to sell a car with a fixed exit date.

Hahaha. I remember going to a car show shortly after Ford announced they were killing off all of their cars. My friends and I just walked around pointing at each one whilst loudly commenting how it’s a shame they aren’t going to sell this anymore.

We were especially loud about it if someone was talking to one of the…

I’d believe it. HKS already have their demo Yaris at 475hp.

Pedestrian safety?

As someone who lives in Buffalo and would much prefer to drive to Toronto for an embassy visit rather than NYC in mid-winter, how were you able to cross the border? Work purposes?

Yeah but this doesn’t work where I live, the school buses do at least 100mi each way, very cold winters, something, something.

I’m very excited about the spread of BEV to short range commercial vehicles. It has huge air quality benefits.

Where was the tear gas, the rubber bullets and the unwarranted beatings by police? Where was the National Guard?

Wait wait wait, so you’re staying on Jalopnik because it’s fun to get reactions out of people responding to your apparent indifference (bordering on support) towards sexual assault?

This seems like an odd hill to die on.

Now you know the real reason that they killed the manual on the M340i.

We had to go to some salvage yards once after a driveby mirror smash. Probably looked at about 10 of them before we found the one with the correct mirror and every one of them had had the head stripped from the engine.

My 1yo Civic sucks at this if you leave it all in auto, it doesn’t drag moisture out of the air when it’s below freezing out. Defrost yes, but auto no. In the winter I end up running it in manual with it set to windscreen/feet combo with the AC forced on.

If you defrost while scraping ice and brushing snow, then turn…

My wife’s old PT got 23mpg highway and couldn’t do a u-turn on a four lane road because the turning circle was so bad.

But apart from that it was okay I guess? *shrug

Better or worse?

I wasn’t correcting you, just giving extra information as I am currently a tyre design engineer.
