No matter how desirable their products are, Tesla just can’t shake the image of being the jankiest operation imaginable. This looks like some enthusiast’s backyard.

The FJ Cruiser is such a mystery to me. On paper it seems like the a money printing machine that they could sell virtually anywhere for as long as they wanted without any changes whatsoever, but somehow it only had a limited run in the American market - which it was designed for - and was being sold only in smaller…

Well spotted, the long rear windows seem out of place in a Citroën AZU-inspired mod. I wouldn’t say it reminds me of the Renault 4F (or rather V, since we’re talking of a Vitrée and not a Fourgonette), but it does look a bit off.

This is the same company that makes some pretty cool Type H conversion kits for the Citroën Jumper.

This shit is downright evil. And it shows that they’re always expecting no accountability, because that plan is just too dumb, but these officers still went ahead and did it. It’s like they know anything they do will be treated as a whoopsie.

I hope different technologies become viable in the not-so-distant future (less than a decade) and maybe, hopefully, there will be a geographic distribution of tech according to locally obtainable resources. Or maybe it will be a matter of different techs for different applications, in which case lithium must be phased…

or, you know, more sustainable and diversified battery tech.

Oh man, thanks for sharing that article. I had no idea Pablo Escobar had raced a Renault 4 (and apparently did some of his early smuggling in one too). I’m a Renault 4 geek and I didn’t know about this! I love that one of the mods in his Quatrelle was moving the tail lights up on the chassis (definitely makes your…

I know, right? :( We should’ve learned, is a better way to put it. We certainly seem to be making the same mistakes in this much needed transition away from fossil fuels.

Popular Mechanics did an article on that tech about a year ago. There’s some significant drawbacks, but if they can make it work I think it’s great. More than anything else, we should be running away from scarce/finite commodities because we learned that that’s a bad idea with oil. When it comes to batteries, I hope…

I mean... Dodge could’ve ripped off Dacia or Mazda and it would still be hard to distinguish from the Alfa Romeo. That’s the thing about SUVs, you can’t tell them apart. The other day I saw a shiny new Qashqai some 20 metres further down the road, and when I walked by I realised it was a Maserati.

This is awful, I love it! No fucking dice all the way, but this crap can is pretty awesome. Lose the Lambo badges and the final 0 in the asking price and some crazy asshole like me will definitely buy it, even if it’s still technically ND at 1/10 of the price.

Probably the last opportunity to de-escalate. If a driver being chased by the police starts to become dangerously erratic, the chances of bystanders getting hurt become considerably higher. Stopping the chase will likely result in the driver ditching the car soon after to just try and escape. Maybe they’ll just steal…

Yeah, I wouldn’t put my money on the guy holding a grudge for over 3 decades, but I remember my father’s behaviour in his final years, with dementia kicking in hard, and he would sometimes get really wound up with things he went through in the 1950s. He passed away at 78 and had to deal with a deteriorating mental…

Oh look, fine people on both sides.

I’m good with those three.

I’ll just say it. I hope Alito, Thomas, and for good measure, Kavanaugh just die soon and human beings are appointed to the seats they left vacant.

Hopefully this, if prices go back down (and an LPG one pops up for sale).

This reads like a bad MLM pitch your sketchy brother in law tries to pull off at a family gathering.
