Simple physics, the engine drag assists the brakes when you let off the accelerator and press the brake pedal. So when you add more axles and tires, there is more internal friction and stopping power.

Air horns are too loud, but I bet if you use one off of a train, instead of one of those little ones you get from the auto parts store, you’ll see Huge gains...

For all of you claiming too much oil is getting g past the filter, you are putting too much oil on the filter. It is not supposed to be dripping, or even moist, but a light film.

Overy time,  the fuel savings will pay for the upgrade in filter cost.

Absolutely not. A dealership can’t arbitrarily throw in some ridiculous requirements based on past vehicle conditions. 

We have consumer protection laws here as well, both federal and local. If an F&I manager tells you it is mandatory,  simply ask him to call the bank, on speaker phone and the two of you can listen to the banks representative.  You will see the manager remove the contract instantly, because it is not required,

How many times have I had a customer telling me they want a $250 payment on a $30k car with no money down and $3000 left on their current trade that is only worth $1000.

The information is on the site, you just have to read it, but it is in plain sight. 

Te first dealership I worked at used stacking. The fine print wasn’t really all that fine since it was printed at the bottom of the page, or on the commercials, there was the fast talker, explaining the ad. But I would constantly get people that would come in and ask for the vehicle, then I would explain it to them.

Most tow companies use flat beds with a wheel lift on the back so they can tow two cars at the same time. They like flat beds because it is easier to tow a badly wrecked vehicle, and a little easier to maneuver, and tends to do less damage to vehicles.

Defeats the purpose of efficiency and range. Towing the trailer and generator adds more weight and drag, thus using more energy and draining the batteries faster. 

So you want the Semi to add more weight and even more drag to the load and make it that much less efficient?  That doesn't make sense.

I just threw up in my mouth. That is simply a lazy design teams lack of effort by pulling up a Flex and making it a little smaller and putting a wannabe Bronco grill on the front.

Or the Palo Alto.  Or better yet, why not the Barstow?

It worked so well for the Sequioa, Tundra and of course, the Tacoma.

So once again, Hyundai copies a quite popular brand. When will they ever come up with an original design?

Elon will not build an ebike.

That's pretty much what I have come to understand. But as stated before, he never had huge amounts of money to work with, and needed outside funding.  So, when I win the lottery, I'm going to look him up as well as introduce him to some of my other friends with major business experience. 

Heros was investing in EBR, Eric Buell Re acting, not the Buell division of H.D.  two completely different companies. 

Much like many things, fads, trends, tastes, etc. come and go and change all the the time. The smart companies roll with the times and change just enough to capture interest from new clients, while not changing enough to alienate their current customers. Look at Levi’s. They still make the same basic Jean’s, while
