Many dismissed it as fiction, but Genesis intends to build it, confirms Erwin Raphael, executive director of Genesis North America, during a visit to Detroit. It will not be a high-volume car, he said. It will be a very limited edition and pricier than anything wearing the Genesis crest now, but it could serve as the l…

Concept:

Neutral: As a second or third car, 100 miles is fine. As an only vehicle, or just because I want flexibility, range-extender Volt is so much more appealing to me.

I think I have a better idea. The passenger lies side-to-side across the vehicle, perpendicular to the direction of travel. The bed is kind of like a hammock, pivoting at the left and right ends (or head and foot ends). If the vehicle crashes or makes a sudden stop, the bed swings forward, and the passenger’s weight…

When talking about EVs, efficiency means MPGe or mi/kWh.

Depends on how you look at it. When the pedal is pressed, the pedal arm swings away from the switch and the lights come on. It’s a normally closed switch meaning that when nothing is pushing it, the circuit is closed and power can flow to the brake lights. When you press it (by taking your foot off the pedal), the…

So the switch turns the brake lights off, rather than on?

The MOST difficult thing to “fix” is an un-anesthetized cat in a sink full of water.

I’m really glad I’m not the only one who noticed this

Hiding behind fancy words like analysis, is an educated guess

That’s when you plasti-dip your kids for good measure.

This is one of those cases where if you go too far, it somehow becomes okay.

I have a 1/36th scale R/C car, a full sink, and a dumb idea...

Tires. Made. of. Sponges.

Now let’s see a comparison with a 2-wheel-drive car fitted with soap tires.

Kristen, how is the quality the life when driving in a Model 3? Road noise, seat comfort, and fun factor. Is this a car you want to be inside for hours at a time?

At about same time they offer a manual shift stick.

Hey you mutt, stop shitting on my lawn!

Let’s think about this for a second. If the machine travels about 6.8 mph, that is 10 ft/s. With a 12 foot diameter, it has to melt 1100 cubic feet of rock per second. That rock is going to weigh about 60 tons. Melting 60 tons of rock every second is going to take 50+ Gigawatts of power. So, you would need to fit 150+…
