Still trying to figure out how is this thing going to pass any crash test, perform acceptably in any emergency maneuver test, or meet visibility and mirror requirements. The more I see it, the more I think this thing has to be a joke and the real Tesla pickup truck is going to be revealed soon, once the board ousts…

Honestly the whole idea of de-contenting appeals to me since I don’t need much in my daily commuter. At this point all I really need is aircon, a pair of 12V DC outlets, and some way to get audio from my phone to whatever speakers are in the doors and I’m good to go.

I now know what I’m doing with my videogame collection down the road...

Shame they lost the Crazy Jump combo...that would’ve been a Class S license for sure.

This. A friend of mine traded a 2-year-old BMW 3 series for a brand new Camry about a year ago, and sitting in both cars it was shocking just how much nicer the Camry was even though it stickered 10K less. And the BMW had the real leather option, not the SensaTec.

Thanks to Jalopnik, I know that the windshield washers on classic Volkswagen Beetles are powered by the compressed air in the spare tire.

That explains a lot actually

Neutral: It’s less about screen size and more about what that screen is doing. While I prefer a screen around 7 or 8 inches, it doesn’t matter how big or small it is when it’s running EnTune or some other garbage proprietary OS that was outdated before the first design document was written.

I mean...I grew up playing Motorhead and other similarly angular Saturn and PSOne racing games, so I guess it’s time to drive the car of my childhood dreams...?

I’m old enough to remember when Jimmie Johnson made his debut as one of NASCAR’s youngest new drivers. This news just makes me feel old. Really old.

Neutral: When someone cracks the code that makes adding 250+ miles of range take under five minutes.

They did update the Versa for MY2020- and dare I say it looks better than any other car starting under $16k. https://www.nissanusa.com/vehicles/cars/versa-sedan.html

This is...actually kinda brilliant. Maybe the dads in Ford’s boardroom are on to something.

Ford Mustang Mustang

More like, “Hey Siri, this time with vim and vigor!”

Not gonna lie - one of my dream drives is a Honda Beat on a go-kart circuit. Always thought it was the perfect pairing, and seems it might still be yet!

In heaven, the electronics are Japanese, the suspension is German, the bodywork Italian, the interior French, and it’s sold at American prices.

I have a weird urge to dig my N64 out of the attic and play San Francisco Rush now.

Yep, my gut reaction was to slam the automakers that filed in support of the regime, but the political issue at hand isn’t about “cleaner” versus “dirtier” standards. The whole thing is going to take a year or longer still to go through the courts and by then we’ll be past the 2020 election. Who knows what that’s…

Aaron had similar sentiments about the livability of the Mustang RTR Series 1's 700 horsepower. That package is more than a power upgrade alone, adding relevant bits to make the GT more balanced when it gets dialed up to that level.
