“Autopilot is better than the drivers who would choose to drive a car based on a shaky premise that they won’t have to drive it.”

Oh for sure, but I would rather see the indicators, anyway, and then I’ll just avoid those jackasses, too.

Maybe, just maybe, they shouldn’t have advertised the truck as being able to withstand sledge hits.

I already avoid every Tesla when I’m on a two-wheels because I know they don’t see us.

But the Emerald mine heir says that autopilot is ten times less likely to crash than a human driver! How can this be? Did he overstate something to sell more shit? That can’t be true! /s

This is the same answer I have, just articulated so much better.

A good answer.

To me, the ideal BMW M3 has a naturally-aspirated I6. Also the ideal 911 has a naturally-aspirated H6. Turbos are best in tiny Japanese four-bangers, and superchargers are for big V8s (though I prefer NA V8s, too).

All cars need to be crash tested by the company, itself, in order to be sold in the US. Luxury cars often don’t have public crash ratings by the NHTSA or IIHS. Land Rover, Porsche, and Jaguar are all in this category.

Were I in the market for a four-door I would buy this in a heartbeat, and then I would remove the... less-tasteful accoutrements. NP

Road safety is very much a prisoner’s dilemma, and Elon is the guy pointing the finger at everyone else, saying he’ll testify.

I would absolutely own any of the cars I love; the only reason I wouldn’t buy them would be lack of money to buy them or space to keep them.

Their dealerships, on the other hand...

Yes

You’d all spec it as a wagon, right?

Firstly, my condolences to those affected: this is awful crap.

Right, Toyota’s “you get what you get on the lot” stance when it comes to custom orders means no dealership would have ordered one. 

I think it has to be a double-cab SR; not the extended cab.

That’s where I’m at now, too: I’ve sworn off them. I had to go through two engines and one transmission on that car, and when it started puffing smoke at startup again I was just done with it.

I loved Death Stranding, I thought it was a triumph of a game that tried something different and really succeeded at it. I thought the loneliness of the overworld was an amazing feature, and the ability to communicate with other players through building infrastructure — ‘bridges’, if you will — and leaving messages
