This is Massachusetts we’re talking about. “Gahd” will sort them out.

You mean the last “under $55,000" wagon. And an Audi will be three times that.

So we need... ODBIII?

At least the new Toyota looks good:

Which is why Santa Cruz needs to be kept weird while I figure out how to live there...

The .001% of the first world, anyway.

Depends if Jackie Treehorn is a car guy.

Leno and Seinfeld should just buy a parking lot. That’s what the only guy from Seinfeld worth a damn would do.

That frontal shot reminds me of Liquid Television

There’s a reason it’s called a logical fallacy.

Shhh. It works on the gun nuts...

I agree but only in areas of the former Soviet Union where you can find parts/expertise.

Bet you it isn’t. Those ships are booked so far in advance they probably couldn’t deviate from their scheduled ports for months, even if they’re stranded for months waiting to fulfil that schedule. For a start, who pays for the diversion if the contract is to load/unload at a certain location?

Rideshares got away with not having to follow local taxi laws. “Disrupting an industry“ seems to mean ignoring laws and avoiding consequences through endless litigation. It’s worked for a many companies so far so why would Carvana be any different? Michigan would need to get off its ass and hit them with a fine or…

They’re the biggest and re-directing shipping is tough to do. So for now everything just piles up off and on shore. Logistics aren’t as agile as UPS would have you believe, at least at this level.

It reminds me a lot of the Union Pacific/Southern Pacific merger around 1997 or so. Trains were backed up all over the place on sidings, on main lines. It was a mess.

Good soundproofing and tires/suspension will do that on just about any car made in the last thirty years. That said EVs can accelerate more quickly than people anticipate. When I drove a Dodge Viper many years ago I was warned something like 25% didn’t make it home from the dealer without being in a wreck.

“I loved the car, but I hated the experience so much I didn’t want it anymore,”

That’s very fun road with some good options to go down Boulder and Clear Creek canyons or go over the mountain to Coal Creek.

It is pretty. We need more bright colors.
