Trucks have pretty big blind spots in front of them.

As long as someone isn’t trying to pull into the spot on the other side it is totally fine.

Rule of Two was bullshit from the start - see Asajj Ventress. Yeah, yeah, she’s technically not a Sith because it was just Dooku/Tyrannis and Palps, but that’s just semantic bullshit.

I’m firmly of the opinion that while TLJ is a pretty good movie with some things I hate, I would have preferred a pure JJ Abrams trilogy rather than, as someone else posted in response to this story, two movies shouting at another one.

“It’s dumb that they just brought back Palps after not mentioning him in either of the previous movies. Like we’re supposed to believe that he was like just off-screen the entire time.”

He was basically a turnaround CEO; there didn’t seem to be much in the way of auto-specific elements to his strategy. “Cut costs and don’t invest in new products for the foreesable future” is about as fundamental as it gets, in any industry.

Gonna say it.

It was doomed... You can’t just create a perception of long term reliability in a couple years, no matter how good your product is.

What, I’ve had my Alfa for a solid 250 miles and absolutely nothing has broken. What are you talking about?!?!

“If you don’t own one, you just don’t get it”

Yep, the one guy in the universe that’s had 0 problems with his Alfa will not tolerate this brand smearing. 

Uh oh. That commenter who owns one will come in here and blame you directly for Alfa’s bad reputation.

Let’s be honest here, they’re pieces of shit as well. 

The hardest thing on an EV’s range is pushing wind for extended periods (Highway driving), and running in the cold. I would imagine that most people go off-roading when it’s somewhat pleasant out. At those temps crawling around at walking pace an EV will go forever. Instant torque, no tranny / clutch to overheat under…

since the wrangler went up market in price. they are way expensive. the wrangler in say 1995 was the entry level vehicle not the halo one.

Tiny electric Jeep, you say?

If it’s really a Jimney competitor, (solid axles) I’d be excited. But it will likely be another FWD-based crossover....

I feel like off-roaders are the one car segment where an electric powertrain doesn’t make sense. There aren’t exactly recharging stations out on the trails, and solar panels will only get you a couple miles extra range per day whereas the fuel in a jerry-can will take you a hundred miles.
