If you look really carefully you can see Bernie Sanders sitting near that red and white barrier.

That’s what I was thinking too. And the UK doesn’t get too much snow. Given modern tires and traction control technologies really whats the point of AWD ?

Waaaay off topic here but, ‘Gas Buddy’ ect.  If we don’t go to the cheapest station there is less incentive for the stations to sell cheap. On my old commute (by bike, ironically) I would go through an intersection of two busy multilane roads. Three of the four corners had a main brand gas stations on them, at all…

They probably just change the motor oil once in a while.  If something big goes wrong they just junk it.

Fake news. Renewable energy does not create jobs.

I am going to guess that the really spectacular MPG claims are in Imperial gallons.

Van or minivan. Snow tires and awd but don’t pass up a good deal on a two wd.  Get a NEW battery and check the charging system.  Get some arctic rated sleeping bags.

Even in a SUV you look UP at a moose.  Ponder that.

3-4 miles ? The most basic (e)bicycle can do that. I know Reno mornings can be cold but its not that cold.

Do they call it a Jerry Can in Germany ?

ICE engines are crazy inefficient (no matter what the fuel is) and fuel cells are crazy ass expensive.   Maybe fuel cells are where Li-ion batteries were 15 years ago.

There is a lot of energy use long before the gasoline ends up at the pump nozzle.

Not bad considering the terrible aerodynamics.

Hybrid might make sense.  I bet the majority of pickup trucks are in urban/suburban areas rather than on ranches or cruising country backroads. (although vans are taking over the utility market)

Friend of mine has one of these, something wrong with the fuel injection. Even in the summer he has to let it warm up for 5 minutes before its drivable.

Why did Olde-Tyme cars have such narrow tires ?  Was it the tire technology ?  Did they just not know any better ?

Electro parking/emergency brake, stupid !  BTW can I do snow 180's with an electro emergency brake ?
