This. That 1600ti in particular is the only car on the list I could see dropping the kind of coin it was bought for.

I can’t wait to get pulled over every time I come back into the splinter Puritan territory of Pennsylvania now.

Edit: It’s a subscription for the battery range. This went from benefit of doubt to a hard go fuck yourself Vinfast just like that.

You’re quite welcome. I had to figure out what the hell an ESAL was a couple days ago so I actually had those semi ready.

It varies depending where you’re at.

The formula scales exponentially based on weight and axles, but yes the research has been done including on light passenger vehicles.

1st: I mean, they acknowledged the issue and fixed it. It’s not like this is a Pinto, Corvair, or fault ignition switch situation with class action suits that run for years and tens of millions of dollars. If the issue is 100% fixed there’s no need to keep crucifying GM for it. Pick on it for how try hard the design…

I want a BEV Maverick in the worst way possible.

Apparently theres only one guy who can post a batch.

The move makes sense to some degree in that the automakers fucked up their supply chains by canceling their position in the queue for chip fabrication as they didn’t want to hold inventory.

First you need to hire the designers to develop your purpose built silicon or farm that out to a 3rd party like ARM. This is already done to some degree.

At the time, Boeing cited pandemic delays and the bankruptcy of its subcontractor GDC Technics (which was reportedly under contract to design the plane’s interiors) for the delays.

1st: I heard something interesting the other day from an economist.

It’s no different than Republican governors having a gas tax holiday that conveniently starts the month before the elections and ends just after elections.

Put some clear Lamin-X over them after you polish them. I’ve found that to be way better than clear coat. The film on my wife’s X-Terra has kept hers for clouding for over 10 years now when I polished them last.

Hydrogen is still highly inefficient to produce compared to simply putting electric in the car from the grid.

I actually just read something interesting on ArsTechnica about this.

Toyota is absolutely convinced hydrogen fuel cells are going to be a thing.

Right around same time that fusion and hydrogen meet all of our energy requirements I’m sure.

The first major repair I ever did was an alternator replacement on a 1995 Nissan Sentra. (I’m sure we all did oil and wipers before a major repair.)
