Blatant negligence on the employer (dealer). The employer is responsible for maintaining safe working conditions and properly trained employees. The employer’s gross negligence killed someone, so the employer should be punished. They should have insurance for this type of thing, so in the end it’ll just be their…

I drove one of these once with the top up and hated it. The interior is very claustrophobic and you can’t see out of it at all.

To be clear, I’m curious rather than specifically advocating for jail time. I just find it interesting that he isn’t being charged, especially compared to a situation like this that seems broadly similar (if too far to the other extreme in the sentencing):

I maybe get the not being able to sue a co-worker, but seems like not being able to sue your employer for damages is suspect, and leaves employees unprotected

<$8500 USD.

K&N air filter with the associated “performance intake”.

thanks for fighting the good fight

I’m keeping my V8 pony car budget under the $15k budget, so jail-time speeds aren’t half throttle like a modern one. 

I just traded in my ‘18 FiST (42k miles) on a 2022 GTI Autobahn. The dealer gave me $15k in trade, but there are times I wish I had not pulled that particular trigger.

I’d go as far as 2010, after the S2000 and 350Z got the axe. The RX8 stuck around a little longer, but was doomed to obscurity because it didn’t have any competition to be tested against. People kind of just forgot about them. From 2005-2010 was when the 4WD Evo and WRX/STI was huge. Old WRXs were cheap. Subaru has…

Probably 95-2005 was the peak decade. That was like the equivalent to the 60's muscle car era for fun shit boxes and family cars. Even them Muscle had a return in that period as you had the GTO, Firebird, Camaro, Mach1, Cobra, the Bullitt introduced, Z06 finally passed over 400HP N/A which was nuts at the time. It was…

I love my FiST so much, I’d be sad to part with it. I am going to probably hold onto it for a bit still. I have under 4oK miles and about a year and a half left before I pay it off. Would be nice to roll around with no car payments for a while considering how expensive things are now a days.

You are in my exact situation, right down to the Fiesta!

Altima SE-R & Sentra SE-R. It’s time for a reboot. For Nissan it’s time for a reboot. Impossible? 2023 Z say’s it’s possible.

I’m starting to see them regularly too. It’s tough to ramp up production on something like this but it’ll get there.

Depends what the problems are. I think a lot of the problems are supply related, which one hopes they have an idea on when those will sort out (and 2024 sounds about right).

Saw one recently.  A lot less weird looking in person than they are in the photos.  I think it’s because they always seem to take pictures from a low angle so they look like they are 15 feet tall instead of only 7 ish.  Honestly a F-150 Raptor looks weirder than the Rivian I saw.

I am starting to see Rivians on the street though. There is one parked at a nearby doctor’s office and another at an engineering firm.

Just came to say I appreciate the headline. Reminds me of Alf and POGs

I think the front end looks like it doesn’t know what it want to do with its life, and it decided to get a law degree but dropped out in the middle and got some weird tattoos.
