I had an early 90s Ford Thunderbird that actually made it over 50k. I know that’s not 300k on a Toyota or anything, but relatively speaking, it’s an AMAZING accomplishment. Parts broke weekly.

a buddy just sent me the ‘oh boy sleep! that’s where i’m a viking!’ thread and i was shocked to learn it’s widely thought that ralph was saying ‘i’m a viking at sleeping’, not ‘when i sleep i dream i’m a viking’, which to me is the only possible interpretation.

Hey! I always look forward to seeing Pete. He has a weird unexplainable charisma, and I def have a soft spot for him - but since I’m many, many years older I mostly want to fix him a snack, ask how his therapy is going, and counsel him about his life choices.

I hadn’t thought of this, but it makes total sense. The other Teslas, even if they’re not all great designs, were clearly designed by professional designers. The Cybertruck, on the other hand, was clearly designed by an overconfident amateur who nobody had the guts to say “no” to.

I look forward to your ”shitboxing around the world” series where you land in a foriegn locale, fix up some hopeless case, and then soak in some local culture before ditching the thing.

I have a business near Trenton, NJ. Scrapping is basically the local industry (since all the real industry abandoned this place in the 1950s). Whenever we remove large signs or have extra scrap from the new ones we are building, we just put them out back near the dumpsters. We have an agreement with one of the…

This holiday season, I christen this my “Davidity Scene”

You’re going to confuse so many people. Also, why do I like that so much?

I’d say it’s a blessing that they ditched those bad shifter buttons, but making them horizontal and further away from the driver seems even worse. Just make it a knob and be done with it, the buttons are horrible, requiring you to both look and reach for Every. Single. Shift. That’s a tremendously bad design, and the…

Agreed, the interior changes are minor and don’t really fix the problem. Major letdown there!

Yeah, kinda. That’s just an 8" screen next to a solid state display, not that great. And the center display in the console still looks like it’s from 2008.

Adding a turbo would put it too close to the 2.0 litre Supra in power and performance, which I suspect Toyota don’t want. Even though Subaru does not have the same issue maybe there is a clause in the JV agreement that means Subaru cannot do a more powerful version than Toyota offer.

Hi! Amy from Rivian here- I’m our PR Director. Emme was using a pre-production battery pack with limited capacity, and our engineers tracked vehicle performance in real time. In a production vehicle with our medium-sized pack, you should expect at least 220 miles of range in conditions this difficult- and we’re…

The R1T is the only thing seriously competing with the ID Buzz to be my next vehicle. Really great looking, cool bits like the tunnel, and the tech sounds legit. Glad to see it’s actually out in the wild doing cool, non-vapor stuff.

Does it not speak for itself?!

A, rare option for this vehicle.

I’m in Portugal, not Germany, but we had a very strict lockdown in the early stages which helped keep the numbers low enough, so naturally that wasn’t a thing around here (leaving the country to escape the pandemic, that is). But after travel restrictions were lifted, especially with the reopening of the…

Can’t speak for Germany, but things are getting weird in the Netherlands. My son is a student at Utrecht University, and about 3 weeks ago he got a 390 Euro fine for standing too close to someone. He was returning to a fellow student’s apartment to retrieve a water bottle he had left behind when he was accosted by…

When reached for comment the only thing Roborace Car would say was, “Please place the items in the bagging area.”

I just want to come out in support of Genesis. If these had been around when I was purchasing my Q7, I would have pulled the trigger in a heartbeat. I loved my G80. It never had a problem, and it was a perfect freeway machine.
