My employer has a program that brings in high-aptitude high school students to work on an Engineering project. I was coaching one year. We were in Excel and I pointed to the Save icon. I asked if they knew what it was. Some of them knew it was a floppy disk, but they all thought it could hold “about 1 gigabyte”. lol

Do you assume I am negligent and did not factor in fleet purchases? 5,000 vehicles purchased in 5.9 hours is a mere 4.2 seconds per vehicle.  According to the Schrute family business almanac, even an apex Purchasing Manager negotiating during a blood moon cannot exceed this rate of purchasing.

False. It takes 2.3 seconds to say “split tailgate”. Meanwhile, the average transaction time for a new Expedition is 5.9 hours.

Coolest car? It’s a tie between a Jensen Interceptor and a Bricklin SV1.

Funny story. I remember seeing Keanu early in his racing career and he nearly bit the dust. Most people don’t know he started off as a co-driver on a team with with some University of Arizona alumni. Anyway one of his first races was a street circuit in LA.  In that race he helped his co-pilot finish the race with a…

Imagine riding along on a blistering ‘Ring lap in a tuned 911 GT3. It’s going to be really fast, and if you’re not used to driving at track speed you’d probably puke after the first couple minutes.

Are Teslas designed to be charged by reversing into a Supercharging spot, or can you pull in straight?

I think you’re referring to severe weather made worse by climate change, which in turn is caused by excess amounts of CO2 in the atmosphere. In a hypothetical scenario where the world completely and immediately stopped burning all fossil fuels (and was able to sustain itself using 100% renewable energy), when would we…

Well, we already have Altima Man attempting a drive-by with a pellet gun...!

Imagine living in the mountains of western North Carolina and getting hit by the remnants of a hurricane...and in some ways harder than Florida got hit. What a bizarre turn of events. I feel terrible for the people whose families, lives, livelihoods, communities, etc simply got washed away with little to no warning.

Maybe, maybe not. I am pretty sure of one thing though - most of the Mary Barras and Tim Cooks of the world aren’t taking time out of their day to publicly call strangers that disagree with their ideas pedophiles, or promoting antisemitic content, or baselessly attacking public servants (Fauci).

This is a bad take. Car accident victims don’t get to pick and choose their injuries, and not all injuries will fully heal.

If you asked the question, “Who is Nissan?” or “Who is Ford?”, you would get confused looks. Maybe some people would name the CEO, if they even knew who it was.

Reminder: Tesla’s misleadingly-named Full Self-Driving (FSD) feature is equivalent to SAE Level 2 of Driving Automation. In other words, the car does not fully drive itself. I don’t know how they continue to get away with calling it Full Self-Driving.

The top trim HR-V has Low Speed Braking Assist, which may or may not have prevented this collision. The mid and low trim HR-V only have Collision Mitigation Braking, which IIRC is a less effective version of Low Speed Brake Assist.

That’s a Mitch Hedberg-level joke right there

It’s amazing how much Oldman worked his face to deliver that one word.

Perfect! But this gif is so common...why does his face look like a bad AI job?

In 2022 Claassen hired CPR to sell his 1970 Porsche 911 on consignment after his wife was diagnosed with dementia; the car was a gift from her. They agreed to sell it for $135,000 with a 10-percent commission.
