God dammit, this shit is going to kill someone. Autonomous cars? Fine, as soon as the tech is sufficient. But this semi-autonomous shit is dangerous. Either I am driving a car, or I am not. I do not wish to have an argument over who is driving my automobile at highway speed, not with a human, and goddamn sure not with…

I’ll pitch in. I hate HOAs

Glad you’re recovering and still able to enjoy doing the things you love! I was actually shot and paralyzed from the chest down about 7 years ago (damn time flies) and my friends actually brought my Xbox into the rehabilitation facility I was at. My left side peripheral nerves were damaged—leaving my left hand nearly…

Are you trolling us because that’s a Grand Tour episode.

You have absolutely no idea of what you’re talking about.

The truck driver needs to yield. If he cannot cross the intersection without anyone hitting their brakes, he did not yield. Just because you can put your nose into the intersection does not mean you yielded and everyone should stop for you

Drivers: literally own the cars, the means of production

Or people can not drive for them.  There is that.

I’d be happy to leave the workforce if I could be assured we’d have health care in our dotage.

For most people, and most driving, FWD is fine, if not better. For an enthusiast, FWD is a shitstain on the automotive landscape. Yes, even on (or especially on) enthusiast oriented vehicles.

Yeah, they fucking suck. That’s not to say some RWD cars don’t suck, but it comes down to personal preference. There’s one thing about FWD that is not a preference though; it’s an indisputable fact. FWD cars understeer on power. Period. There is no amount of tuning, or hardware upgrades, or even driving technique that…

It was my first day on the navigation crew and they wanted to help me feel less nervous, so they whipped out the potato moonshine

The perfect amount is anything between 10 pounds of curb weight to 1 hp to 7 pounds to 1 hp. Anything better than that is terrifying on the highway and anything over that is boring
