Do you lay down in the middle of the street to protest cars? Do you attack industries for making things? Do you stand on the street picketing against vaccines while trying to engage directly with children as they walk by with their parents? That’s what I think of when I hear Far Left.

The pivot away from V8 power to EV and inline-6 has got to be a huge challenge for the brand synonymous with HEMI.

Even after activating the chirp, it only made the single Lock chirp about 75% of the time. The double Unlock chirp seemed to always work correctly.

I suspect the “chirp” was tied to the presence of an alarm. My 2004 BMW had standard remote lock/unlock, and did not chirp. Only after I installed the factory ultrasonic alarm and coded the car, did it chirp on lock/unlock. Your Land Rover was probably subject to the same BMW design criteria of the day.

From a business perspective, I can’t imagine delivery services would be happy with drivers declining jobs based on their beliefs. That could be a very slippery slope and could cause lots of uneven service.

Working for this guy must be extremely exhausting.

Too bad that one persists. That one is easily disproved with a set of calipers.

I recently acquired a W204 (6MT!) with that steering wheel. Yeah, it’s not a looker but it does feel pretty good in your hands. The buttons have that typical German solid feeling to them.

Lots of pre-facelift W204 parts bin raiding here: steering wheel (mostly), climate controls, light switch, radio with numeric keypad (lol), monochrome gauge cluster display, brake and gas pedals, and possibly the glove box. None of it is particularly bad, it’s just funny to see in an exclusive, 6-figure sports car.

OK...which one of the dozen underlined links actually shows Mr. Musk saying he would make good?

Yeah. It wasn’t long ago when the world’s best sports cars had 200-300hp, and only some exotics had over 400hp.

Imagine traveling back to 1994 and telling the automotive community that some of the fastest cars in the 2020s will be full size trucks and “SUV-like vehicles called CROSSOVERS...”, and none of them will have a gasoline engine, and they will all weigh like 5,000lbs.

Guilty on all 6 counts. About 5 days of trial and less than 1 day of deliberation. The defendant did not act alone, and both will spend the rest of their lives in jail.

I served on a jury for a murder trial in which the defendant, victim and many accomplices were all meth addicts. It’s very possible these women were high AND panicking, which probably led to the crash and led to all sorts of stupid decisions immediately after.

Drive the car and you won’t care what it’s called.

Are they depreciating by $4-5 per mile?  I think not.

The % depreciation per year is somewhat normal for a luxury car.

To me it’s the on-stage launches for boring cars, where you have a team of live dancers trying their best to make a Chevy Cavalier exciting. Meanwhile the Cavalier is looking around like, “uhh, wtf is all this? I was promised a chill day inside on a turntable.”

Dittmann is ridiculous enough that it sounds like a character in a Seinfeld plot.
