I have a CT on order (300K down the line) but if there is a van I'll drop the CT like a bad habit.

I found it ironic that in a future where fuel was dammed hard to come by all the warring factions drove the most fuel sucking vehicles imaginable. In reality they would all prob be on mopeds or driving beater compacts with 4 banger engines but that wouldn't be as cool. I used to read a series...

You can't gold plate a turd. Monroe and Associates did a teardown of a Mach-E and Sandy Monroe said the cooling system was a nightmare of pumps, valves and hoses. It looked like an octopus. The Nissan dealer where I bought my van and have it serviced has a Mach-E and several used Teslas on...

I rode the buses and trains when I was stationed in Germany back in the 70's. Fast, on time and cheap. I rode the train more in Germany than I did in the US. As soon as I got back to the US it was back to my 70 Torino Cobra and the freedom of the road. I've always been a train guy and the 40's...

I drove out there last month. Until you see that building up close you cannot appreciate the size of it.

If I had money I'd buy a Tesla Roadster before I bought a Vette. Never been a Chevy guy anyway.

He makes some good points but a lot of his videos are just a rehash of other posted videos. I watch his videos occasionally but find him mildly annoying at times.

Define irony........a Toyota Lunar Cruiser being delivered by a SpaceX Starship.

Oh Lord won't you buy me an Electric Benz My friends all drive Teslas I must make amends. Oh Lord won't you buy me an Electric Benz. (With apologies to Janis Joplin)

FUD much?

We just had to replace an 2004 Ram 3500 with a 2022 Ram 3500. The big bastage cost more than my first house and has the Cummins diesel, automatic and 4WD. Had there been an electric truck that could do the same thing the 3500 does (haul hay and stock trailers and multiple pallets of bagged feed)...

Probably a case of "if you can't beat'em, join'em". In Elon's world the government is that eccentric old Uncle you patronize to keep him busy and out of your business. On a positive note all the research and development that SpaceX does on its nickel saves the taxpayer some money (unless they...

Elon Musk and SpaceX reminds me of David Bowie's character in "The Man Who Fell to Earth". I hope he doesn't get on the bad side of the Government by eating NASA's lunch. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Man_Who_Fell_to_Earth

Small cars look attractive until you become a hood ornament on a Peterbuilt. You get in a tractor trailer's blind spot in that thing you could end up road kill. I drove commercially for a lot of years and small cars that liked to hang out next to my tandems were the bane of my existence. In...

GM couldn't catch a cold.

Buggy whip makers in 1900, "that newfangled automobile will never replace the horse." Big Three automakers in 1949, "that Volkswagon import is never going to be a threat." Big Three automakers in 1958, "those Japanese imports will never be popular here......too small and underpowered." GM...

Toyota.......leading from the rear.

Anytime there is change that some people can't or won't adapt to there will be tools that do things to start something. The Pilot truckstop near me has a supercharge area. They placed it close to the Wendy's in the store so the terminally lazy and stupid regularly park in the charger spots to...

I have the Harbor Fright electric chain saw and pole saw......bought them in anticipation of winter deadfalls on the fence line but haven't had to use either. I'll prob add a leaf blower since we have oak trees around the house and I don't rake yards. I found this interesting. I follow this guy...
