I thought pretty much all cars let you shift out of drive into neutral, even while moving.  Is this not the case?  Surely older cars allow this....is this now something newer cars lock you out of?

I read that as is stopped 20 yards from a football field.

Reminds me of a certain Toyota Hilux.

Yeah, but the Bolt would still have way more range, more room, and just be an overall better value. Not nearly as cute, of course, but cute’s only gonna move (checks numbers) about 1,000 cars a year.

Stellantis in general has been completely out to lunch on their MSRPs. It’s trashed their credibility and caused huge overstocks on some car models, which has just forced them to do really steep discounts that likely are well below invoice.

You very well might be right, but if the hole is where I think it is, it would be in an area they reasonably might not know there was a hole. I am not absolving the business, but if the hole was in the big dirt area between the dealer and the Sonic, I could believe there is no reason a random customer would be…

I like FIATs

There is a 3rd swivel gate just down and to the left of the green area, which is to me the “entrance” or at least first entrance. But I agree with you in that I think it was likely in the green area where he fell into the hole. And to me I think it’s not unreasonable to think a customer or anyone wouldn’t be wandering…

The article literally addresses this issue. Early fast EVs (mostly the Tesla S) were only good for a few launches. Today’s fast EVs like this one are going to repeat those launches until you are too nauseous to continue (which would likely take a lot less than an hour). 

I’d like to see how your ICE car is doing after doing a 0-60 every few seconds for an hour...

It’s really just a product of how traditional drag strip timing devices work. It’s not a nefarious plot to goose numbers. Back when even fast sports cars were doing 0-60 in the 5 second range (and not very repeatably) nobody cared that much. It was the difference between 0-60 in 5.4 or 5.2 seconds. It’s only in the EV…

Not true of EVs anymore, there are tons of videos of them doing back-to-back passes with no issues. ICE cars also aren’t flawless and will get hot with repeated passes.

No, it shouldn’t. It’s the industry standard. Every 0-60 test since drag strips were invented have used rollout. 

That is ridiculously untrue, but also not something anyone needs anyway.

To everyone’s surprise the mule heavy portfolio started paying off.

What planet are you from? (See what i did there?)

What a shame.

oh cmon. look like the truck needed to do a u-turn to leave the spectacle event. everybody was just going “bonkers” bc well he needed the entire space for the u-turn. 

So who identifies what roads are what? Even in your dream land where speed limits boil down into 7 categories and even a few of those are wishy-washy. So who labels the roads in Maps (or writes the algorithm to label the roads)? Who is the point of contact for when users encounter roads int eh wild that are…
