I could either be in traffic driving for 45 minutes and pay 14 bucks a day for parking and $1.60/L for gas... or I could snooze for half an hour on the bus that avoids the traffic thanks to the magic of HOV lanes, snooze for half an hour on the train, and walk 10 minutes from the station to the office, all for $90/month always take the extra hour of sleep

it does make me wonder if the space shuttle could theoretically ditch into the ocean. not sure if it weighs too much to float but as far as surface area goes it's not some super awkward shape.

when the 86 was branded as a scion at least the infotainment thing had a bunch of knobs and poo poo. it was really just a bluetooth head unit that also did radio good at being an infotainment unit? not really. worse than tesla's? not sure if you can really get much worse than "tv-sized vertically oriented tablet in the dashboard" tbh man I want another one of those stupid bad idea cars.

modern automatics kick the poo poo out of a stick shift anyways my BRZ is an automatic and I love it, I have two overdrive gears so at 120 km/h on the freeway I'm turning like 2300 rpm but I can still blast around corners in at unsafe speeds and drop into second gear ending at 6000 rpm on the way out of the turn if I want to and still have almost 2000 more before the rev limiter

Jonny 290 posted:when i bought my 9mm it came with three 17 round magazines and at checkout the guy got out a silicone gun, loaded fifteen blanks into each and then injected the mags with silicone through the bottom till they were full and looked at me with a wink and said "Here are your Denver-compliant fifteen round magazines, make sure to not remove that silicone" magazines in canada have to be "permanently modified" to a maximum of five rounds for rifles or ten rounds for pistols. this has resulted in the overwhelming majority of "permanent modifications" being a single rivet that just terminates somewhere deep enough in the magazine to stop the follower at five rounds, on the grounds that you can't just unscrew a rivet, and thus it is a "permanent modification" for a while you could get ten round .50 beowulf "pistol" magazines that were just otherwise unmodifed 30-round 5.56 magazines with a big FOR .50 BEOWULF PISTOL USE ONLY stamped on the side and they slid under the radar for like half a decade before the RCMP went "wait a minute"

the points result in you getting a bill from ICBC for being a lovely driver at the end of the year. especially if she already has any other points, because the scale is exponential 6 points on their own? $500 or so. 12 points? about $2000. any speeding ticket is 3 points so if she has any speeding tickets this year (in a tesla, definitely would lmao) she's gonna have a chunky penalty point premium and if you don't pay it they'll just revoke your license entirely and you have start over from a learners permit

the last indestructible american car made was the crown vic. you can spend a couple grand on one with 150k miles on it and it’ll chug along for another 150k. no American manufacturer will ever make a car like that again because then they couldn’t sell a new lovely car to the same person every five years

one of the side effects of the foot of snow we've gotten in vancouver over the past two weeks has been that the number of people going "it's okay, my tesla is all wheel drive" and just assuming that AWD means no need for snow tires has skyrocketed I've seen at least 500k in crashed teslas in the past few days in like a 2 square mile radius. considering tesla design and build quality those are probably all going to get totalled. lomarf

you probably can, there's nothing fundamentally different enough about EVs that prevents you from using a different tire compound mind you tesla charges two and a half large for a set of snow tires and steelies to go with. meanwhlie I can find a set of really fuckin good snow tires without any discounts for 1400 and that's before any possible discounts I can 100% see people who spend $50k on an awd tesla being the same people who don't want to spend $2k on a set of winter tires that will last longer than the car

the thread of guy whose model 3 performance edition or whatever it's called coming with only three out of four brake pads installed at the factory is loving amazing doubly so because someone who used to work at the fremont tesla plant pops in to say "yeah I've seen that at the factory before, it happens sometimes". people in the comments are talking about how "someone" should tell the NHTSA lol

infernal machines posted:i live in canada (ontario) and we have functional BRT here, and yet when things like high speed rail corridors come up there's always some clown that wants to sink money into evaluating hyperloop or some poo poo. handing ammunition to assholes who don't think we need subway/lrt expansion because autonomous vehicles will somehow solve traffic is also an issue. in greater vancouver every 5-10 years one of the municipalities will invariably spend a couple million on a feasibility study for whatever the hot new poo poo in theoretical rapid transit technology is and it always ends with "wait we have a functional light rail system already let's just extend that". as a result the skytrain has grown from like 20 km of track and a dozen stations to 80 km of track and 50 stations in the past 30 years and there's two more major track and station extensions under construction, and they're investigating a third to go over burrard inlet to the north shore turns out when you already have some infrastructure that works well and dates back to before the 21st century, you can keep expanding it instead of giving enron musk a billion dollars to bore a kilometre of tunnels and put teslas in it
