“If they chopped the selling price in half, they might have been able to sell some and should have been able to make money on it because even $2500 was a lot of money back then.”

Evidently yes the motor does shut down in more modern vehicles. 

Your writing is so weird. It’s like angsty junior high diary writing. Who says / writes “How sickly and sad”

Your reasonable and rational view of this matter will get you nowhere I tell ya. nowhere!

I like ya Candace, big fan of your articles but yeah... this one is

“no denying that it’s impressive as hell on a technical level.”

With the advent of super performance EVs just around the corner, there is an argument that the AMG One may be the most technically complex car that will ever see public roads.

Yep, basically this.

Hasn’t the poor woman been through enough? Forcing her to be Aquaman 2 just seems cruel.

Why are you bringing up Morbius right now? 

Part of the problem with those takes is people think the case is about who abused who. It’s not. This is a defamation case and so what Depp needs to prove is that Heard knowingly lied about what she wrote and she targeted at Depp to ruin his rep. Which honestly is nearly impossible. Heard abusing Depp was little…

I feel truly insane reading any coverage/commentary of this, it’s so wildly different depending where I am. It scares me how confident everyone is that the facts are on their side, considering a huge amount of them must be wrong.

Sad that they’re basically abandoning one of their best new engines in a long time. I get why they don’t want a V8 anymore in smaller cars, but they completely ignored the awesome I6 they developed just a few years ago. I would definitely rock a C55 with a 429 hp I6, but not a 4-banger with that much power. And I’m…

I love the line “speed was a factor” because, yes, obviously speed was a factor. If no one was moving, then no one would have run into anything! You fundamentally can’t have collisions without velocities! It’s a phrase completely devoid of any true meaning beyond anti-speed propaganda.

UK drivers are not better drivers than US drivers. I say this as a Brit. You’ll see more bad driving per day in the UK than the US. UK roads are also not significantly better than US roads, though we don’t have brain-problems when it comes to roundabouts.

I understand the penalties; he asked for permission and they said no, so of course they’ve got to punish that.

This idea that “strict licensing requirements” is some magic solution only comes from people who don’t get it (and assume that it won’t prevent them from driving). Without viable public transportation, people have to drive. Whether they have a license or not is not really a factor in whether they will drive.

Right. But again, in auctions and online sales, the term “restomod” is often broadly used to described these types of vehicles — they’re not that genre specific.

You don’t watch too many car auctions on TV, do you? :)

Restomod? But where’s the purple, orange, and lime green paint scene? Where are the 22" chrome wheels? Where’s the undrivable 800-hp crate motor? Where’s the interior from a ‘03 Escalade covered in tan (always tan) ostrich hide? Where are the seven subwoofers? Where are the airbags? Where. Are. The. Airbags?!

The driveline is the unique part of the NAPCO; if you are going to update it and heavily change it with different transfer case and axles, you would be better off starting with a 2WD vehicle.
