No it’s not. Needs more torque. Terrible street car.

Wait, is this today’s NPorCP post?

GM set out to design a fuel saving transmission that didn’t? No kidding. Ford took out some parts and it works? Again... No kidding. Maybe let Ford take a look at the options packages for the Silverado.

I’m kinda, sorta in the market for a truck. I’ve been stunned by the prices. It’s damn near impossible to find a decent truck to just haul stuff and get the back dirty with some mulch and whatnot.

They both look like ass. Fight me.

Indeed. My take on that very theme: Lincoln was as good as dead; the smart money was on Cadillac and its RWD platforms. Suddenly, the Navigator is red-hot, the Aviator is on-stage, the Escalade is obsolete and unreliable, and no one wants to buy a silly Cadillac sedan with a supercharged engine. Everything that…

I largely agree with what you’re saying here. But, (of course there’s a but) I think the reveal of the next Lincoln SUV might have done more damage than the hyper-success of the Navigator. Showing that Lincoln has the range to capitalize on the design success of the Navigator may have been more impactful. The Aviator…

Has Tesla ever given the public accurate information? On anything? Musk is a fraud. He appears to deliberately mislead customers, investors, employees, the media, and the NHTSA. He gets away with it, but sooner or later the party is going to end.

It’s really not that hard. The hard part is meeting unrealistic expectations designed to pump up the stock price.

I am literally just in these comments reading for your extreme salt. It is the seasoning that I require on this drab and dreary day.

Building cars is hard. Who would have thought?

This is literally the best analogy that could have ever been thought of. Thank you. +1

Tesla in 2010: “it’s safe to say the $30k-$35k car will be here in 202, 2013"
Tesla in July 2017: “we’ll be making 5,000 a week by the end of the year”
Tesla in Feb. 2018: “we’ll be making 5,000 a week by the end of March”
Tesla at end March 2018: “We’re making 2,000 a week, and we’ll be making 2,500 a week soon”.
Which…

Even the $35K version? I thought the cheapest spec being manufactured atm was $50k+?

The wheels are beginning to fall off Tesla. You almost wonder what fantasy-land their fans are living on, because with their balance sheets, promised timing, factory limitations, suppliers etc, there is no way on planet Earth Tesla can pull the Model Y out before putting the Roadster & Semi in production, and that’s…

Uhm, shouldn’t they be focused on just surviving 2018 right now? If they can’t hit 5,000 units per week soon, they may as well daydream about starting Death Star production for all it matters.

I believe that Trump’s greatest deception is convincing anybody that he knows about business.

Ugh; I’m so sick of this viewpoint. People who drink good beer are not de facto snobs, just like you are not a certified hero of the working class for being able to stomach Bud Light. Just drink what you want.

Waiver or no waiver, I think the organizer’s mistake is letting a rider participate despite missing the rider’s meeting.

Was he on his first lap out when it happened? Was this the first corner he encountered that had sandbags? Had he done track days there before where sandbags were present? If this was lap 20 then he knew the sandbags were there. His comment about evasive action and his promotion of his own company lead me to think this…
