Love these GIFs.

“When you’re driving, the last thing you want to be doing is trying to focus extra hard on what you’re looking at.”

Indeed, but then nobody remembers the followup or the correction. Just the initial headline.

“Just walk” is all fine and good, except for the fact that we, as a society, refuse to invest the necessary money and time in building a more walkable, transit-based infrastructure that can facilitate a reduction in car ownership, miles driven, and ultimately lower overall energy use.

And it’s from the Daily-freaking-Mail, to top it off.

Take a Daily Mail article at face value? Nope.

Hell yeah, recycle the raw materials. We’re probably a bit far off with easy supply chain / processes to execute such a thing (car battery recycling into continual use as a car battery, not just as a power source for a factory or something) but if that is possible, it solves so many of the downstream waste problems.

That interior and especially that overhead light look like they came right out of Star Trek:Deep Space Nine. Love it!

Such long-term vision.

Now *this* is how you start a thread.

THANK YOU...tired of seeing out of date info and talking points show up in these threads.

It’s amazing to me how supposed business professionals get this backwards: make a great product, and the brand will build itself.

I F’ing *hope* we can toss out McCrory. Then, get the Supreme Court to mandate that districts be chosen by non-partisan committees, and throw out the gerrymandered mess that allows the knuckle-draggers to control govt.

Another NC native here. The scariest thing about our state government (aside from their neanderthal-stance on every issue) is the lack of transparency and due process which characterizes our law-makers. Our legislature passed this IN A SINGLE DAY with almost NO input from the public or from other lawmakers. They…

“Oh, and its 8.8 kWh battery can be charged on a standard household outlet too, no fancy equipment required. That’s nice.”

I had a similar post above, only my current DD is a 9 year-old, fairly efficient Japanese sedan. Glad to hear that someone else is at least concerned about the amount of CO2 their ride produces. Having said that, as others pointed out going out and buying a new, more efficient car is not always a “green” move if your…
