I will be buying one in the next year or 2. Once the finances make sense, of course.

I love everyone here not understanding why people want Maserati’s.

For clarification: I don’t think that it’s good that these bikes got stolen. I’m just impressed with the execution.

You make a good point about comparing to the xDrive version.

Take the $85k into context with the rest of the BMW lineup. The iX is roughly the same size as the X5 and X6, which start around $59k and $65k respectively. That puts the $85k starting point 40-45% higher than the ICE counterparts of the iX.

That’s not the point. This comment slideshow shit is grimey.

Allow that urge to throat stab slideshow posters to express itself fully

“Hey you know how normally the comments section is a reasonable fond that lets you easily read the comments? Yeah, well we’re going to take screenshots of that, blow it up so big that one word takes up the whole screen and it takes 5 minutes of scrolling to see a whole comment, and separate every single comment to a…

Here’s a sweet life hack: If you just go to the original article where he asked this question and look in the comments section, you can see all of the responses (and more!) without F***ing with 10 pages of clicking through ads 

Come on man. I like your other work. Turning comments into a slide show - I’m not sure what value that adds to the readers.

I’m not going to read it.

When are you going to have a slideshow of all the comments about people hating your F’ing slideshows?

That’s why in my book Mazda had the right answer when they removed the touchscreen altogether and positioned the screen closer to the base of the windshield (so it’s more in the line of sight of the driver). 

Electric trucks will be great for short-haul trucking. Port drayage is an especially problematic area for pollution, as a large number of trucks are concentrated in a relatively small area for the majority of the workday. In fact, cleaning up pollution from drayage vehicles has been a major effort by both the EPA and…

I’m just tired of being asked to be mad about something, I’ve hit my limit on it. I’ve been asked to be mad about too many things, and be “not your grandfather’s X” too often lately. It is what it is and I don’t care. It provokes only apathy from me now.

Agreed. Temp control, fan speed, fan direction, and I would also throw in a physical radio volume knob. Everything else can be touchscreen or whatever, but not those.

Not to mention cycling through those options while driving, because of course we will. 

Temp control should never be a push button, always a knob. Period. Same for the fan speed. Period. Also, is the hvac vent control one button that you have to use to cycle through all of the choices?
