The City E-Bike get away is probably a closer Jalopnik connection than a supposed job at true car. (they still have not found the bike)

The whole story stinks. How did he know when the guy would be in NYC? What hotel he’d be at? That he would leave at 7:30am? If he had security? Or if he was just coming to town for the meeting in the morning and leaving? There are a lot of questions and he didn’t just hang out for 10 days hoping to come across the…

You’d think Job #1 is cut/shave your hair. #2 is grow a beard. #3 is sunglasses and mask everywhere for the next 3 months. #4 is make it back to Hawaii, where no one could imagine you’re a NYC suspect. He appeared to do none of these.

“After covering around 15 billion miles”...not something you generally hear about vehicles built in the ‘70s.  But seriously, the private space industry contractors have got a long way to go before they can build something as reliable as NASA in its heyday.

I thought the question was about an actual vintage car, but Bradley is the only staffer who seems to have read it the same way. If something modern-ish is acceptable, how about a Saab 900 Turbo convertible?

A Maserati GranTurismo is the right answer for a stylish weekend play car for the whole family.

I was thinking a Volvo V70 Convertible or Saab 9-3 Vert would be a good solution, too. 

This person has created a Venn diagram with many circles that in no way overlap. I think she needs to find the nicest Toyota Solara V-6 convertible out there, and call it close enough.

That’s a pretty diverse and bizarre wish list, so compormises are going to have to be made somewhere. With this suggestion I give short shrift to the rear seat accommodations, but overall I think it checks most of the boxes: Euro vintage style, convertible, modern amenities. And the kiddos will love it. 

Since most of the shut-downs have to do with instrumentation not really needed as much (optical cameras, etc); assuming no malfunctions, their (the RTGs, there are 3 per spacecraft) minimum wattage has a projected lifetime into the mid-2030s..naturally, there’ll be some further shutdowns perhaps, but they’re only…

Looks a lot more like the X-37B than the space shuttle to me. X-37B is also unmanned.

Mars does not move in the same orbit around the sun, or at the same speed as Earth.

Elon is reminding me of Henry Ford. When I first learned about Henry, he was an amazing innovator who created the assembly line and paid his working a high wage. Way to go Henry! Then I found out he thought the Nazis were on the right track with fascism. And that he published and distributed worldwide an astonishingly…

I’m just hoping that the horrors that they have planned are muted by what is sure to be incompetence and infighting at every level. 

If I can’t get a Suzuki Jimny, what even was the point of destroying the American experiment?

The only “clown” here is someone who actually believes musk and supports him.

While he is somewhat of a Tesla Fanboy, really he is an EV fanboy and also has a few other EV’s that does long term tests. He has an Rivian R1T as well so he isn’t just a Tesla nut hugger. He gets them and puts them through a lot of tests and he test all EV’s and covers the EV industry like charging tech and charging…

Look at me!

He bought it knowing Musk is a fascist and scam artist, so he deserves to be taken to the cleaners. And that is even without the “influencer” angle.
