Also, power isn’t everything. I’ve driven some cars that have a ton of power, but are just bleh to actually drive.

If you wanted a straight line speed car, you’re not looking at a yaris anyway, so what’s the point?

Neutral: An aircooled  Porsche 911, because I could sell it for more than I paid for it all these years on. 

All e-bikes are expensive, this isn’t news.  Honestly, Ducatti’s prices are pretty competitive in the segment. 

I’d almost agree with you, but it doesn’t make v10 noises. Should just equip the car with “synthetic” engine noise, fixed.

Its obviously quicker, but man did the older cars sound sooo much better doing it. 

Someone’s hittin the crack pipe...

“mechanically 100% requires no attention what so ever!”

Automatic transmissions.

Or that in very cold climates like in the northern US and Canada, you’re not going to get near the promised range which I forsee being an issue until we get better batteries, coupled with the lack of infrastructure as you stated, makes sole EV frustrating proposition.

Welcome to the future. Human’s need not apply. Its honestly something I wish more governments across the world would sit down and try to figure out. We’re becoming more efficient and automated and basically curbing our labor needs.  Unemployment is going to be a big problem in the next 50 years.

I’m not playing the victim, and I am lucky enough to have good public transportation near me, and I can, and do ride my bike more than I drive. But... for instance a lot of the country is very rural and live 10+ miles from a town, there are no busses, you can’t reasonably walk that far to get to work or to get…

Old cars usually. The one that came to mind was a modified 72 Dart “Swinger” I drove a few times.

Thing had a supercharged 5.9l LA engine I think? And a cam, heads, the whole hot-rod package, it was QUICK, but what was scarry is this thing still had drum brakes on all 4 corners, was about as nimble as an Iron Ore…

Yeah, that’s not an option for a HUGE bit of this country, bad solution. 

Never said climate change is fake, or not a problem. But thanks for making assumptions. I just don’t think creating these target/ban regulations or mandates on manufacturers is necessary at all. And yes, in some markets/areas/use cases for some people, an EV is not going to be the best choice, least not until battery…

Why should we be “Forced” to buy EV’s? Many, like myself, couldn’t afford one. Nor do they work well yet in very cold/wintery climates.

Look, EV’s are the future, and will kill ICE cars almost entirely, but they don’t need government laws and regulations to do it. Market forces will do what they do and EV’s will…

Boing would have been better off at this point ironically just having built the max as they had, not installing MCAS, and just requiring more training for the jet to counter the effects of the new engine placement. Yes, that puts them at a disadvantage with the A320neo, but in light of whats happened, that would have…

Welcome to being a bike nerd. I am currently obsessing over the new Kona Honzo ESD I’m building up and building up bikes from the frame up, while super expensive, is super fun and rewarding. So I get it. But I spend too much time during the work day wondering if this hub or fork or derailur is going to be better than…

I’m not going to sit here and whine about the lack of a turbo.

Ya know what, Jalop had an article a few weeks ago about what car best defined the Trump era....

Well, you released that too early, this is the car that embodies it best now.

This is hilarious. Like, who is this guy hurting by wearing a dress? Did Mr.Styles say “All men must wear dresses!” no, he didn’t. He’s an individual exercising his right of free will and self expression, if anything trying to shame/shut this down is super funny coming from the right since they don’t seem to like…

I’ve been saying for years how this trend of larger and larger wheels is actually kinda bad. For all the reasons you explained above, but most chief among them is the cost of tires.  Also, I live in the north, our roads are garbage and full of moon craters, sidewalls are a requirement.  I’ve seen so many ruined large…
