Pretty much any “hack” is a garbage idea 95% of the time, and 100% of the time if it comes from TikTok or Facebook.

1st gear: Ford has a lot of pickup and SUV profits to subsidize EV development, overall they are doing fine.

Stop doing this “Company loses $X on every unit it sells” nonsense. It’s misleading and sensationalized. Ford, and most companies (Even Nissan, allegedly!) spend money developing new products. They spend that money in anticipation of future sales. Dividing total development cost (already paid up front) by the first…

Or it just teaches him to wrong better.  Because the way to fix a psychopath is to surround him with other psychopaths?

If these had been bog-simple carb’d V8s or I6s or I4a they still would have blown up from this. No engine lives long with crap plugging up the oil passages.

Good for them doing the right thing and swapping them out instead of some half assed fix to save money.

This isn’t a TTV6 inherent issue though. The TTV6 Hybrid powertrains seem to be fine so far. This was just a bad process issue. Good on them for replacing all the engines, even ones with no failure shown yet, some of these have been in operation for almost 3 year now and even those people will get a free engine at no…

Yes. Additionally, Dan Wheldon? Jules Bianchi? All three of these modern motorsports accidents led directly to or dramatically underscore already proposed changes to equipment or procedure in the name of driver and spectator safety.

You just totally skipped Dale Earnhardt??? What the hell is wrong with you?

How are you doing? It’s amazing. It’s so amazing. We should send you into, I’ve always said get some of these guys. I have a lot of friends in that world. I don’t know. I think, isn’t Roger Penske, like, a great guy? The guy won 20 Indianapolis 500s. This guy (pointing to Childress) wins all the time. I mean, we…

I know what you mean. I once bought some cheap bagged cereal that was sweetened with sorbitol. I ate two bowls of it and an hour later the floodgates opened. I thought I had poisoned myself.

So the EV market will be like BestBuy now?

There are similar amazing deals for lightly used EVs that aren’t total garbage. I got a 2020 Ioniq Electric with $10k miles on it for $21k that had a $39k MSRP. And since it was under $25k I’ll get $4k back on the used EV tax credit. Other than only having just under 200 miles of range, which is no concern for me,…

I would imagine you’d have to be going pretty fast for the car to roll like that after getting hit like that. Watching the full video, even in so motion, you can tell that the Volt is going way faster than other cars.

Yep.  Reckless driving usually trumps anything else the other car did.

Maybe. Maybe not - they’re the ones in a steel cage surrounded by airbags.  And are much likelier to have caused the crash in the first place.

My middle school was a Fallout Shelter, and the cafeteria was in the basement for that reason.
