The thing with cars is that it’s not like cheap cars aren’t available. Nobody HAS to buy a new car, or a new expensive car. You can find a perfectly decent car for WAY under $10K. You will be hard pressed to find even a fixer-upper house for less than $300K in too much of the country.

Agreed. Hating on Max is the cool thing to do, though.

He didn’t say it was hard. He said he didn’t have to do it anymore. Nobody is forcing him to do it, so he might leave early. I don’t think this makes him a pissbaby. I think this makes him aware of his own value and wants to do what makes him happy. If F1 doesn’t make him happy anymore, he’ll leave. It think that’s…

They did not.

If this gets 100 stars, can we please kill the slideshow format?

I don’t know why I come here anymore TBH. It’s crap articles sprinkled with political opinion I don’t want.

I had to read the article just to see how dumb it really was. I won’t watch the video...

Yeah. I saw math that showed that a 4-cylinder engine getting mid-20's fuel economy driving at highway speed would use about 1/36th of a milliliter of gasoline per combustion cycle. Even at 2,000 PSI, that small of a volume of fluid would not significantly increase the pressure inside the cylinder.

This. The car is not the expensive part. It’s the testing equipment, consumables, and the time for the experts to analyze the results that’s the real cost.

He was a bit before my time, so I’ve never seen him discussed in any less than the most glowing terms. I’d like to read a piece where you elaborate on this unpopular opinion for two reasons: It would be a refreshing change, and the comments section would be fucking fantastic.

I think people would be a lot more willing to trash talk Senna and Schumacher if they had not met tragic fates. 

It’s not a popular opinion, but Senna was a net negative for all of motorsport

- Many of the people criticizing Verstappen are happy to forget about Senna binning Prost at Suzuka in 1990.

Porsche Carrera GT V10. Next question?

I enjoy watching Alex on Legit Street Cars. I like that he does all the work himself and talks you through it. Plus we’re about the same age so we have the same taste in cars we loved in high-school ha ha

I was going to write something like this (you can see my real answer elsewhere) but decide not to because I don’t have time today to a) provide my rationale b) list the pro/cons of actually implementing it and c) argue with people over it.

Thats what we have been doing in Denmark for decades. It works.

I think you hit the nail on the head with the Taurus, but I’d go with the third generation one from 1996. For that year, Ford turned the Taurus into an rounded, amorphous blob, a design language that is still very much around today (although mostly in crossovers). 

They work at collection agencies and call themselves.  The commissions keep the treadmill spinning.
