Perfect example of silly, annoying take on one side that’s meant to inspire an equally silly and annoying take from the other side. Note to self - I still hate “sides”.

“I begin to fear that as these companies realize that this stuff is not only hard, but also not particularly cool, that we’ll start seeing investment drop off, and we may remember this whole AV thing as a craze more than anything else.”

Hot take - the industry wide scramble to move to autonomous vehicles and electrification is mostly as result of wall st pressure on stock prices to be more like tesla, even though Tesla doesn’t operate at a profit, doesn’t make an autonomous vehicle and sells hardly any cars (comparatively). In 10 years, there still…

“I, for one, am worried if the company that couldn’t even get the launch of the Explorer right”

Yes, Mexico seems very stable right now and has been for the last decade or two.

People spend way too much money on cars. The 10% rule as you stated in your car payment example would be a good general starting point, but the lower you go, the better off you are.

This. I happen to enjoy not busting my rim and blowing out a tire when I fail to dodge a massive pothole. We’re now entering an era where people get after market rims to make them SMALLER.

too soon.

I was on the side of the union and generally thought G/O leadership sounds terrible, but then I saw the official statement from GMG that used the phrase “speak truth to power” in a non-sarcastic manner and I instantly thought “holy crap, this is the type leadership had to deal with” and now I’m on the fence.

I’m very confused by this article. The tone makes it seem like this is unprecedented. This has been common practice for years. Ask the folks that bought an 03 Cobra rated at 390hp about their dyno figure. Also, two cars that came off the line one after the other will dyno at different figures. The variability is…

I’m generally not a supporter of unions, but the free market isn’t working like it should since the recovery. Companies will leave a position unfilled or move the work outside of the country if they can’t find someone to fill a spot for $10/hr. When unemployment is 3.6%, you have to raise wages to fill vacancies.…

Assuming you’re a waiter or barista from your insanely presumptuous generalization of what people with real jobs do when they travel for them.

Tuning this car for understeer is going to save a lot of lives and countless accidents. People have been driving front engine Corvette’s for 50+ years. My guess is 99.99% have never driven a mid-engine car even remotely as powerful, so your typical owner is going to get a C8 and drive it exactly like they would a C7.…

Came here to make a similar comment lol

This is the same type of guy that mocks your new Vette/Stang/M series/etc purchase because he has a 98 Civic with $3000 in mods that’s faster. No point in debating.
