  1. Very cool, much appreciated. I see these guys prey on Mosquitoes, Flies, Caterpillars and Beetles. WOW Have to say I really like this car.
  2. Clearly some one is having fun and making sure folks that want a unique golf cart gets it. So many different options, posted a few that I thought you all would get a laugh out of. https://yeahmotor.com/moto/golf-carts/?v=2
  3. What a weird bug, what is it? Deformed Grasshopper?
  4. Nope as it stated, he worked in the mines for 17 years and black lung was rampant. He worked up into mgmt. left the mines and Gov started to move to put in places protection for the miners against Black Lung. He fought it, Ex-President Obama made the most stringent changes in the last couple decades to reduce the dust that causes Black Lung to a minimal effort requiring plenty of filtration, masks and fresh air and he still used everything he could to fight the new standards as they would cost more money reducing profits for the Coal company owners and share holders. History shows he could care less about the miners and yet now with the same Black Lung he is wanting companies to cover his medical. Hypocrite. IMHO
  5. Really, then how do you explain their First Edition being sold out as well as the first year of production?
  6. Here is the ultimate truck for the Diesel Lovers here: 12 Wheel, 42.4L V12 Turbo Diesel Engine, producing 1,500 HP with a 220 Ton carrying capacity, 105 ft long, 22 feet wide and 11 feet high. More details and pics here: https://www.thedrive.com/news/36839/the-soviets-built-a-12-wheeled-mega-truck-with-a-42-4l-engine-and-220-ton-carrying-capacity
  7. Seems Europe has done the first in depth review of assisted driving systems and Tesla has come up short compared to so many other auto companies. Many of the review writeups say the same thing as this one. https://www.thetruthaboutcars.com/2020/10/euro-ncap-develops-assisted-driving-assessment-bashes-autopilot/ The actual details of the testing and final scores are here: https://www.euroncap.com/en/vehicle-safety/safety-campaigns/2020-assisted-driving-tests/ https://www.euroncap.com/en/ratings-rewards/assisted-driving-gradings This does make me wonder how they would rate the Cadillac SuperCruise system. Very cool channel, Hydraulic Press Channel
  8. WOW, Talk about odd stuff at the Beijing Auto Show. All the History of the US auto Industry is up for Pirating I guess. Old Corvettes are the latest thing made new. Called the Dolphin SS and is a Hybrid with a 1.5 L Turbocharged motor and electric motor with 16 kWh battery pack for a 0 to 62 mph time under 5 seconds. Check out at the link for more interesting auto's that are clear rip offs of European auto's too. https://www.autoblog.com/2020/09/30/beijing-auto-show-strangest-vehicles/
  9. Talk about justice, a Man who went from being a coal miner to a CEO and fought every chance he could to remove all regulation, safety and environmental regulations on Coal is now Dying of Black Lung disease. He has since filed this week in his home state of West Virginia for Federal Black Lung Benefits. My wife says Karma is a Bitch you do not want to cross and I have to say that this man is getting what he deserves. https://www.wvpublic.org/energy-environment/2020-09-30/bob-murray-who-fought-against-black-lung-regulations-as-a-coal-operator-has-filed-for-black-lung-benefits
  10. Sad that they do not do an official announcement with details but instead bring it up during other verbal press releases. https://www.cnet.com/roadshow/news/ford-mustang-shelby-gt350-production-end-discontinued/
  11. Considering I was on this site: https://www.supercars.net/blog/cars-of-the-1930s/ Saw the car and thought wow that is really cool for an old car. Love the style and design. I live moving forward into the Future and not living in the past. Your Post gets your the Ultimate next term in this thread. Douchebag
  12. Another reason for my dislike of the UAW. They leaders are screwing the union members. Former UAW president pleads guilty to embezzling union funds https://www.reuters.com/article/us-usa-autos-labor-corruption/former-uaw-president-pleads-guilty-to-embezzling-union-funds-idUSKBN26L3KY Time to face the Music Audi Ex-CEO, VWE expect more costs associated with Dieselgate. Ex-Audi chief arrives in German court to face dieselgate charges https://www.reuters.com/article/us-volkswagen-emissions-audi/ex-audi-chief-arrives-in-german-court-to-face-dieselgate-charges-idUSKBN26L1KG
  13. I would take this way before I would want to drive that BMW.
  14. Except Tesla has already started to drop prices on Tesla Y CUVs so Ford is matching to be competitive. A Smart and sound business practice.
  15. My failure for working my job while also monitoring about the auto industry. Fixed, thank you
  16. FORD RECALLS HUGE AP has multiple stories on recalls from Ford. Ford is recalling 558,000 mid size SUV/CUVs for a Brake Fluid leak issue caused by the front brake lines failing. The recall covers certain 2015 through 2018 Ford Edge and 2016 through 2018 Lincoln MKX vehicles. https://apnews.com/article/north-america-06525b5786d13c76a18d8c37fb42ced9 Ford is recalling 700,000 auto's as the backup camera can just go dark at any time. The recall covers most 2020 versions of Ford’s F-Series trucks, as well as the 2020 Explorer, Mustang, Transit, Expedition, Escape, Ranger and Edge. Also included are the Lincoln Nautilus and Corsair. F-Series trucks are the top-selling vehicle in the U.S. https://apnews.com/article/north-america-archive-2553654e6b900a207462ec2cb2575b51 Ford recalls 2.5 million auto's for latch and brake problems. 2.1 million auto's are being recalled due to latches that can fail allowing the doors to open while the auto is in motion. This is the third recall for this problem. 344,000 F-150 pickups are being recalled for Master Brake Cylinder leaks that can cause the brake system to fail resulting in crashes. The recall covers vehicles in the U.S. and includes the 2012 to 2015 Ford Focus, the 2013 to 2014 Ford Fusion, the 2011 to 2014 Ford Fiesta, and the 2013 to 2015 Ford Escape and C-Max.

The F-Series pickups are the top-selling vehicles in the United States. https://apnews.com/article/593f7b1b881af8645f80297ed07fbda1
  17. We do not know if it is Cramped as the interior they show appears to be very spacious even more so than many auto's from the 60's to 70's. I get that the original Buick Electra with an ICE was a large car and this is a CUV. Yet, EV's are supposed to give more interior room even if the exterior dimensions do not equal the auto of the past. They do not state what size this auto is or what extended length of the BEV platform this is built on. Too many unknowns at this time.
