    Electric Cars Pass the Tipping Point to Mass Adoption in 31 Countries

    Back in the 60's if the badges were painted the same color as the car, it meant you got it painted at Earl Scheib.

    How do you like the driving aids in today's cars?

    That's another thing I can easily live without. I have to listen to all that beeping every time I park in my garage. I park my Jeep close to the wall on the passenger side.

    How do you like the driving aids in today's cars?

    I use it mainly for backing up straight into a parking spot. You can see much better when you're getting to the line, curb, or the car that's parked behind you.

    Pittsburgh vs Daytona 3 ton floor jack

    I'm not sure, but I think they offer an extended warranty for just a few bucks more. I've never purchased one of their extended warranties, but most of the time I'm asked by the checkout gal if I want it.

    Can YOU Spot the flaw in this New Raybestos Performance Rotor?

    I admire your patience. That's about 45 minutes more of it than I would have had.

    How do you like the driving aids in today's cars?

    Always. But I will admit, I like back up cameras.

    How do you like the driving aids in today's cars?

    I've always been pretty good at recognizing when it's raining out. Even out here in the desert.

    How do you like the driving aids in today's cars?

    I have pretty much the same opinion. I have turned most of them off the day we bought our new Camry. And I've never turned them on since. I found "Lane Departure" to be a total nuisance. (I thought there was something wrong with the front end when we drove it home). I do like the cruise control...

    Francis Scott Key Bridge (Baltimore) hit by Cargo Ship and Collapsed

    Just imagine the money and time it's going to take just to cut up and haul away all that scrap. Let alone rebuild the whole thing.

    Francis Scott Key Bridge (Baltimore) hit by Cargo Ship and Collapsed

    The water temperature in Baltimore is in the low 40's this time of year. Anyone trapped or stranded in the water, (assuming they can breath), isn't going to last very long before hypothermia kills them.

    "Park Outside" Recalls Are Soaring

    Look, simply apply common sense. And posting pictures of a Rolls Royce parked in a vineyard isn't it. Pouring money into an expensive project doesn't guarantee financial success. Does DeLorean ring a bell? There is a certain segment of the purchasing public who are fascinated by these things...

    "Park Outside" Recalls Are Soaring

    What I think doesn't matter. Look, you can try to skew this any way you want. But you cannot get around the fact EV's only make up....... Wait for it....... 1 percent of all vehicles on the road today. And once again that number is far too insignificant to matter. Until it becomes 20 percent or...

    The continuation of being dumped on in Restaurants needs to end.

    Here is the biggest problem with restaurants. It becomes a big Catch 22. They have to make the food taste good. Or else no one will come back to eat it again. And the things food has to contain to taste good are sugar, carbs, fat, and salt. Precisely the crap you shouldn't be eating in any...

    "Park Outside" Recalls Are Soaring

    Numbers are worthless, not to mention meaningless, when all they comprise is 1 percent of the entire vehicle market. Jay Leno's "Eco Jet" car can post some pretty impressive numbers as well. But can you find 10 people in a room who actually care?

    "Park Outside" Recalls Are Soaring

    When EV's get 20 percent of the market, then let us know....... Assuming any of us are still alive by then.

    "Park Outside" Recalls Are Soaring

    Come back and tell me something when you have something worth listening to..... And 1 percent of the market isn't "blown out of proportion". It's simply a factual number you don't want to hear. Too bad, its not my fault that after decades of these over priced toy's being on the market, that's...

    "Park Outside" Recalls Are Soaring

    Here I agree. But therein lies the problem. EV's are currently only 1 percent of the entire vehicle market in this country. And at the rate they're going, the asteroid is going to hit before they ever get enough of these things on the road to acquire ANY kind of meaningful data, to accurately...

    Lock N Flate Locking Air Chuck

    I just purchased 2 of these, and I'm really impressed at how well they work. I have a closed flow model on a direct airline to my compressor. And another open flow model on my digital tire gauge. Every locking air chuck I have doesn't work well, if at all. They all leak air regardless of how...

    "Park Outside" Recalls Are Soaring

    Just stating some facts you don't want to hear or believe. You seem to be running defense pretty well yourself.
