The gas tax hasn’t been raised since the early 90s. Hybrids getting 40-50mpg pay substantially less than traditional gas cars. I hear no one ever ask those to pay more.

1st Gear: It is important to note that the contract originated last December before Trump took office and while Biden was still president. I surely despise Trump, Musk, and their poor attempt at taking over the country but this whole thing predated our current predicament.

I hate Nazi Musk as much as the next dude, and I dislike CyberTurds plenty, but people suck if they thinking harassing a person over their purchase is even remotely close to acceptable. He wanted attention, clearly, but any hate he gets should be limited to his ostentatious choices, not his barely tenable association…

The things just do not look good. They aren’t offensive, but when you stand next to a Lucid and a Taycan, why would you choose an EQS? Then you have Tesla which the Model S still looks good, is cheaper, and faster, with a better charging network. EVs have levelled the playing field to where these companies need to be…

For future reference, NYPD has a motorcycle theft recovery taskforce. Rather than calling sanitation, just report your bike stolen and work with the local precinct who should put you in touch with a detective. You’ll need to stay on top of them, but the fact that you had an airtag showing it was moving in/to Queens…

Are you high? In what world should we accept egregious vandalism as a “cost of doing business”? If someone ever breaks into your house and shoots you, I assume that’s “cost of owning a home” then? No emergency service involvement right?

Good point. But even the not-as-heavy EVs do it to. A Model 3 LR does it in 4.6s. That’s basically the standard commuter car moving forward, and it will out accelerate the GR Corolla or Civic Type R.

The Sierra EV Denali needed 4.3 seconds to reach 60 mph; while that’s not exactly slow

I read the Court opinion and it pointed out one other category of illegal termination: retaliation for whistleblowing, addressing discrimination, complying with an investigation against an employer, refusing sexual advances by employees, etc. For clarification, Kirby is allowed to continue a claim of retaliatory…

you know these are covers on the hubcaps, right?

This incident had nothing to do with the aircraft manufacturer.

If you used your gas station loyalty card to buy gas at the same brand of fuel station multiple times along your route, the fuel station would also be able to piece together your route, and they don’t need data from your car to do it. Same could be said if you use the same credit card to buy gas, then your bank knows…

Electric motors are incredibly simple and have probably peaked many decades ago, however battery tech is still in its infancy as an automotive component.

The styling was groundbreaking.  In the wrong way.

I have a real hard time believing that this is the Cybertruck’s fault. I mean, DAMN that is a lot of damage. I am the last person to be on the side of a Cybertruck here, but holy crap, how the hell hard did he hit that pothole? And insurance actually *paid out*? They wouldn’t have paid out if they thought it was a…

um... this speaks volumes.

I work with a guy that just bought a cyber truck. It fits him well, because he’s NOT a d-bag, but a nerdy electrician who happened to do really well in the stock market and replaced his Volt with this. And I hate to admit that riding in it makes me like them ever so slightly more.

So, if I’m understanding (and I may not be!), the police, *after overtime*, are making ~20-25% below the median income in your town? If that’s correct, that does not sound reasonable or enticing in the slightest. Please not the “if,” and correct me if I'm wrong.

Current interior materials are actually relatively upscale despite the minimalistic appearance. Entire door panel is alcantara, dashboard is soft-touch, steering wheel is leather wrapped, seats are like a plushy leather couch. Only the top face of the center console around the cup holders, the wood paneling, and the…

Not an Elon Musk fan. The misinformation on this site is way out of hand.
