Here’s the thing, though: Generally, even if the interior volume isn’t that different, I’d say that a CUV feels like a size up on a comparable sedan. A small CUV (I haven’t been in the EcoSport, but let’s say a Honda H-RV or a Kia Soul) feels bigger not just than a Fiesta, but also a Focus, on the inside. It’s…

Small cars (B-Segment and increasingly C-Segment) are ultimately falling prey to the same issues that have hurt the A-Segment: Smaller cars still have to have (almost) all the parts of larger cars, and there’s only so small/cheap you can make, say, an engine or a transmission.

It might be, but if you’ve had Gmail open for a while, try doing a hard refresh (Ctrl+R on PC or Cmd+R on a Mac); if that doesn’t work and you REALLY want to try it, try logging in from an incognito window or clearing your cookies. (None of that would help if it’s a staged rollout, but it did work for me - I’d just…

Like a lot of Google’s “plans,” it ends up being half-right: The new Gmail (which I’ve been using for like an hour now) has an Inbox-esque feel to it (and directly takes features like smart replies from it).

Here in Chicago, if you go to the “cool” urban areas, you see scooters pretty frequently (which is kind of amazing, considering they look nearly as steal-able as a bicycle, and I’ve had two of those stolen in my 14 years in town).

Even if there’s less that can break on an EV, there’s still plenty that can go wrong, especially with the battery cells, and that’s why it’s good to hear that those seem to be particularly well-made in the Tesla 3 they’re disassembling.

This. The thing is, if you had a 1970s GM with body gaps large enough to lose a marble in, it was bad because the rest of the car was made with the same attention to detail as the panels, and that causes problems with superfluous components like “transmissions.”

Exactly. That’s my point: He wasn’t fired because Caddy didn’t have release an appropriate lineup of minivans crossovers during his tenure, it’s because the people on the board that fired him knew, with relative certainty, what was the Cadillac lineup of 2020, 2021 and even 2022 look like, and they decided that they…

I was going to say this. I think, on one hand, there’s certainly a lot of concentrated wealth, so even if there aren’t that many people who can drop supercar money, those that can can do it more often.

For the star Mary Kay saleswoman who goes the extra (offroad) mile for her customers.

While it’s true that we haven’t seen the fruits of what de Nysschen did, keep in mind that the board that fired him knows more about the pipeline than we do.

Why can’t Google just find a way to accurately count streetlights? As in “turn right at the next streetlight,” or “turn left after the 2nd light?”

Buick Encourage.

Yeah, there’s actually a lot of E’s there, too: Escape, Explorer, Expedition, and I guess EcoSport. I don’t know what they’re doing with the C-Max, but then again, I don’t think Ford does, either.

Did GM hire whoever was in charge of Ford’s vehicle naming (everything starts with F, with grandfathered exceptions for like, the Taurus and Mustang) and make them work for Buick? It’s like the company is slowly working its way to having every vehicle it sells start with “E” for some reason: Enclave, Encore, Envision,…

Yeah, I’m not saying that organics should be exempt from rules. The biggest challenge, though, is that obviously, all pesticides aren’t created equal - some are more generally toxic for any given amount, while others can be more targeted - but you had better believe that if regulation on these chemicals started to get…

Just as an FYI: That desktop only has a “key A” m.2 slot, used for WiFi, and doesn’t have an m.2. slot (free or occupied) for a NVMe-based SSD (which tend to be much faster, and a little more expensive), so if you do opt for an SSD, you’ll be stuck with a slower SATA-based one.

Just as an FYI: That desktop only has a “key A” m.2 slot, used for WiFi, and doesn’t have an m.2. slot (free or…

So would I, but I’d also like for there to be more rigorous controls on what pesticides can be used, as well as how much fertilizer. Very large amounts of both pesticides and fertilizer are “lost” and end up in runoff or ground water, so over time, stricter controls would encourage more research into developing…

On top of all the over-the-top vitriol on both sides of this: It’s important to separate out negative effects on your health vs. negative effects on environmental quality resulting from the foods we eat.

Quit being go “glass half empty” about this: The other side is, some buyers have owned Italian car for nearly a year without it being recalled.
