Also, this particular article for for the Raptor R. I’d be hard pressed to believe that a Raptor R would “lose” in the “quarters” against a Hybrid F150.

Why the fuck would we be “celebrating” getting ads directed at us?

“Loses” is a relative term. Loses at what?

Raptor owners crawling out of their 90's track homes to comment I see.

There has to be some piece of religious canon out there that states mortgaging a Raptor plus a side by side is the pinnacle of enlightenment or some shit. Like how else would you convince people to part with 2x their annual salary for a truck that loses to a hybrid F150, and a glorified go cart.

Oh yeah absolutely. People making 25k per year (qualification limits for section 8) are buying new cars with an average new car price of 48 fucking thousand dollars (https://www.kbb.com/car-news/average-new-car-price-hits-record-high/). That sounds like something that’s actually happening.

“Low income people” buy used cars, not new.

There is no market more efficient than the used-car market, said Tom Moore, COO of Tampa, Fla.-based Morgan Automotive Group. But it was “a hell of a lot more fun” managing a larger level of investment into used vehicles when those cars were appreciating in value, he said.

If VW didn’t let the glue eaters design the UI on the 8 it would be competitive.

The CTR is for 40yo Honda fanbois who grew up tuning 80s-90s Civics, or those who wish they did. It doesn’t really need to make sense on paper because the people buying these are doing so for emotion over logic.

...unless you’re hypothetical...

I mean, here we let people utilize our laws, resources, economic system, patent/trademark/copyright protections, etc. to accumulate enough wealth to literally shoot themselves into space for fucking fun, while we simultaneously rely on crowdfunding to pay for children’s cancer diagnoses.

Did you just wake up from a coma?

I thought they drove themselves. What the hell?

The more severe penalties should be phased in at a BAC of .15 where impairment begins to directly correlate with accident involvement. Lower penalties should be adopted for less severe DWI violations.

Might only be Sidney Powell, but if you’ve got money to burn, what’s the worst that could happen?

Counterpoint: The F150 Lightning has a year long waiting list. As does the HUMMER, the Rivian, and the other EV trucks. And the bleeding heart commie Jalopnik commenters aren’t the ones lining up to buy them.

Seeing real world impact on range when towing has made me rethink how quickly EV trucks are going to catch on.
