Something you missed in your comparison between the 2 row Edge and 3 row competitors is this:

To the best of my knowledge BMW doesn’t have any SAE certified engines (see SAE certified engines here: https://www.sae.org/certifiedpower/data/)

They publish claimed power numbers but they are just that, manufacturer claims. They are free to underrate their numbers as much as they’d like. It’s only the SAE certified…

I’m not sure what their budget was for this show, but this costume looks like something you’d pick up for fifteen dollars from a Spirit Halloween store.

The mid-engine doesn’t help much, since it’s still longitudinal.  It still has to change direction 90 degrees.  The hypoid gear set to do that is where RWD configurations get most of their inefficiency relative to FWD.

Maybe something like that apc the Russian mob dude had in that Vin Diesel movie, Babylon AD. The entire interior was video screens so it looked like you were driving around in a transparent armored vehicle. It was a pretty cool effect.

Another regurgitation of other people’s journalism? C’mon Jalopnik, what has been going on lately? It seems like you guys are doing more of this than your own reporting lately.

5 minutes Turkish.

Especially relevant since up to now, you.had to look over the top of the engine to see the road.

It’s always seemed strange that there’s so little acknowledgement of how GOOD a pushrod LS7 or new LT1 is on the attributes that count: reliability, power, torque, weight and volume.

Your entire position here is a treatise on how you think it’s your right to n lazily stand in people’s way. You definitely lack the self awareness to not be a problem wherever you go.

If someone is so scared of being passed on escalators why don’t they use the elevators?

Normally I take issue with the “you must be fun at parties” line because it relies on the notion that people can’t differentiate between different situations with different social expectations but in this case you’re probably right.

In many places like malls, hotels, airports, etc the staircases are off in a far corner serving as a fire staircase only. How fucking hard is it to stand to the right so that non-lazy people who are using an escalator or moving walkway to get to where they are going faster can walk by?! If you move your ass to the…

Stay to the right and shut the fuck up. It’s not a fucking amusement park ride. Some of us have trains to catch and places to be.

I’m sorry but watching a movie on a phone is stupid in the first place.  I have NEVER understood why anyone would want to watch a tv show much less a movie on a phone.

Only a jerk would laugh at someone for only being able to afford a specific type of phone. Maybe don’t be a jerk.

Lmao yes, because I'm fiscally responsible and find the idea of financing a phone and adding a monthly payment before paying off my home is just silly and irresponsible. Enjoy living in your depreciating asset of a phone. 

Imagine all the user submitted news footage in portrait mode we’ll have to endure. ;)

I’m not saying he’s some superhuman genius that can tell the hp limits of a part just by touching it, but he’s probably seen a lot of what does and doesn’t work over his years building cars. It’s not like he’s doing this for the first time is the only point I’m trying to make.
