The G159 would be fine on low speed delivery vehicles but a huge part of the lawsuit is that they sold it to the RV manufacturers knowing full well it wasn’t intended for highway speeds.

My name is s4natic and I have been clean for 0 days after following the link in the article.

Not unnatural at all around here. I share your “passion” for configurations.

Not often do I get worked up about an AMC, but this thing is right up my alley. Beautiful build with the power to back it up and attention to detail to bring it all together.

I need more pics Raphael. This post is leaving me with blue balls.

Always a beautiful sight to see a B5 in it’s natural state.

Sounds like something a D-plus student.would say...

...It starts at around $285,000, a price that, if you can afford it, means you can also afford to take it to the track for your high speed thrills hire a crazy expensive lawyer to get you out of a DUI.

It is a very nice toaster so I will, thanks.

Was just about to say the same! Anyone who considers a B5 S4 to be reliable has not owned a B5 S4. I sold mine coming up on 120k with the turbo job in the near future. It was a money pit the entire time I owned it, one part failing after another.

2nd Gear: If You Can’t Beat ‘Em, Join ‘Em

I have so much respect for people who can dedicate this much time with so much attention to detail. I don’t have the patience or attention span to pull it off, but the outcome was absolutely beautiful and made a great read.

It always amazes me that things like this get overlooked. I get that Tesla is relatively small and most major car companies probably have an entire department devoted to determining windshield wiper speeds and whatnot, but even then stupid little things that don’t make sense fall through the cracks..

So I’ll preface this by saying I am not in the market for a minivan, nor do I want to be for a very long time (if ever). But I don’t see why they can’t add a slight bit of performance or fun factor to these. Obviously I’m not talking about taking it to a level that totally destroys the comfort and practicality of a…

As a motorcyclist, I couldn’t agree more. I already see so many individuals on the road acting like their cars are already autonomous. I can’t imagine what kind of utter disregard those people will display when their vehicles start actually taking some control for them.

I was just going to use New Years as an example myself. I recall seeing 10-12x surge pricing. Major holidays and downtown hotspots around 3-4 AM (or when the bars close) are when they go to town.

nov15-22 summed it up earlier:

I know it, unfortunately. I’ve taken rides with both companies after a few too many, but I always manage to have the presence of mind to check the prices of the entire trip on both prior to confirming.

Airlines are a different story since they control the entire market and there are no alternatives, but it makes for a good argument.

Uber and Lyft both get to somewhat skirt the rules, but paying attention to the surge prices before even confirming a ride will eliminate the “I had no idea about the price” issue.
