The models released by the white house in late March were almost spot on. We’re on track to have about 100k deaths and the curve is following the middle estimate almost exactly. I don’t think you know what the models show.

The Compass is just about the furthest thing from a performance car as you can get. Jeep designed it as a compact crossover with off road capabilities and spent no time refining its road manners. Having a few rough shifts probably isn’t even noticeable.

Supporting business is part of the reason for these stimulus checks. Don’t forget that unemployment benefits give unemployed people an extra $2400/month on top of normal unemployment benefits. THAT’S what supports people who lost their job. The $1200 is meant to be used to spend on the economy. If you need to use it…

My trainer insisted that I lift without gloves. Getting your hands used to lifting without gloves was great advice. I’d recommend people lift with bare hands. It improves overall form and increases strength. Also, in the real world, if you need to lift something, you’re not going to have gloves with you.

Also, the addition of baggage fees, etc. do suck, I agree. However they do that to encourage people to pack less and increase cost savings even more. I’m not saying they pass on those savings to us completely (if at all), but it is a very effective way to decrease costs. It at least gives them the potential to lower…

It’s empirical evidence, not BS.

That’s purely anecdotal evidence. Adjusted for inflation, prices have gone down.

That explains the shape, then. Thanks. It’s interesting the pilots didn’t realize that though and assumed it had rotated considering they probably use these systems all the time.

Ah that explains the shape of that one then. It’s most likely just glare.

What’s interesting is that these confirm the shapes of early UFO sightings. Either cigar shaped or saucer shaped objects.

When plane seats were bigger, they also cost significantly more. Seats are small because the customers demand lower fares above all else. It’s not the airlines’ fault, it’s the customers’ fault for smaller seats, worse service, and fewer amenities. All in the name of cheaper tickets. Whenever I see a decent deal on…

Dude, these are tickets for going over 100mph. It’s not for going 100 OVER the limit. On the 65mph freeway, 99.9% of cars on the road aren’t capable of going 100+65=165mph. Most high power performance sport sedans are limited to 155-160mph. Virtually every car on the road is capable of going over 100mph though, and…

Sounds like they’re BOF SUVs. In which case that doesn’t really apply to a sports car discussion. For a heavy SUV, the number is somewhere closer to 450hp.

I’m generally against police chases as they are now, but often people running have stolen the cars. Checking the plates won’t do a thing. 

They actually sell every single one they make. They can’t keep them in stock. I just mean when they start ramping up production and meeting demand. They’re actually not that huge relative to the crossover market, they just look bigger than they are. They’re classified as a midsized crossover.

The ZF 9HP is nothing like the 8HP. Most transverse planetary transmissions have a low torque rating, not very good torque converters, and the 9HP specifically has two dog clutches. That’s why it’s so criticized. It has nothing to do with being in a Jeep first.

Ah didn’t know that. Sounds like a large majority of Elantras are probably made in America, though.

Yeah I think the biggest mistake a lot of people make is to buy their first manual car when they’re like 30 years old and they buy something like an M3 or Corvette. Learning to drive on a little hot hatch or even just a small econo car with a stick is so much fun. I’ve seen a lot of people get frustrated trying to…

The ZF 8HP transmission is a longitudinal automatic so obviously that particular model wouldn’t work in a FWD car. You’ll find no performance oriented transverse (FWD/AWD) cars use conventional automatics anymore because they are much bigger. They pretty much all use manuals or DCTs which can be made much smaller than…

Drag strip and 0-60 times are there to give us an idea how powerful and light a car is. It’s just to show us how a car will feel. Most of us aren’t going to the drag strip and having an imaginary contest to see how many tenths we can lower our drag times by. Most of us don’t go to a race track to beat some imaginary…
