Wear polypropene liners that will wick away moisture and then thick wool-blend socks to cushion your feet and regulate temperature. Both are available at outdoors good stores, like MEC and REI. Take care of your feet, folks, and buy the socks made for this exact purpose, as well as a good pair of boots that fit right.…

No. it’s not a good time for a professional driver. And it should definitely NOT overheat after 3 minutes.

No. No props. Get is approved for production, make a quality product, take it to a real track, then get respect. People still talk shit about Koenigsegg. With cars coming out like the Lycan Hypersport (by most accounts a shitbox), you never know if someone’s a visionary or complete cock until the finished product…

OK we get it. Electric motors win another drag race. Lets move on.

How do you figure? Either it depreciates or it doesn’t unless you’re talking about the opportunity cost of the money in a cash deal.

People keep making the same claim, but that’s false. MSRP includes a cut for dealer profit (plus accounts for other kickbacks) and would not be the equivalent to a direct sale model. Plus, for high demand wait-listed cars, dealers are free to set significantly higher prices than MSRP. Then there’s also the common…

MSRP is a false equivalence though (although frequently raised). In a direct sale model, the MSRP can be lower because there is no cut for dealer profit (and other behind-the-scenes kickbacks, as is common in the dealership game).

Not so, FWD is significantly easier to pilot well than RWD, even at this power level.

Agreed. If this was a civilian that wrapped heir car around a tree they would get a careless driving ticket. It’s tragic but the witch hunt seems unwarranted.

No, taxation is not illegal because society, through its elected representatives, have decided that certain costs are to be borne by society as a whole. Thus, taxes.

Oh for fuck’s sake! Can we please give up on the stupid fucking trolley problem as relates to autonomous cars?

I encourage anyone considering pet insurance to do their research. Be sure what is and what is not covered. Be careful of what might be excluded because of ‘preexisting conditions’. Also, as your pet ages, expect the cost to go up sometimes by a lot. It can definitely help you when an accident or major illness…

Chris, sorry I was so harsh, but the math doesn’t work out. The only way insurance companies can charge $75 a month is if pet expenses for their customers average far less than that. They have to cover administrative and marketing costs, and worse, some people will game the system and never buy insurance for their…

This insane, insurance isn’t a free ride, it’s very expensive protection against expenses you won’t be able to afford. And if you have a pet, you damn well better be able to afford to pay for its health care.

You have competition between manufacturers. What does competition between dealers supposed to provide?

Doing away with the current dealership model =/= doing away with competition. I will note, this model seems to work fine with every other consumer good (Televisions, washing machines, Coffee pots, furniture, etc etc etc). There is 0 reason it cant work for cars. My dream is that one day I can get my new F150 via…

So, your argument is that we should have competition between dealerships to see who marks their BMW up the least?

What competition? The manufacturers sell the cars to the dealership, who then mark up the prices to sell to consumers. The only “competition” when when dealerships have to try to liquidate crappy assets. We as consumers would be better off with the manufacturers competing with us directly, and not having to pay a…

“Brake power” is only part of what keeps the car from launching forward in this situation. It’s also weight distribution that’s affecting relative grip between the front and back.. In a front engine, rear wheel drive car, like this one, the weight of the engine over the front tires generally means more weight is…
