I think I will have to adopt your opinion on this. I like how you justify it and I soooooo agree with this: I just hope that governments and insurances do NOT impose this technology on us and FORCE us to let computers drive for us. But like I said, I do NOT think that autonomous driving will EVER be a thing as I do NOT think A.I. will EVER be intelligent enough to drive us free will and free thinking humans. Unless of course we (free willing and free thinking humans) allow insurances, governments, corporations and all other oppressive forces take away our free will and free thinking liberties... About eating hamburgers while driving but letting the car do most of the lifting. Yeah...I think that is waaaay safer so I would probably bend my opposition to this tech and give in. But I dont usually eat and drive or do anything of a distracting nature to begin with while I drive...so... I repeat, I will probably be one of the last humans to adopt and adapt to this tech.

It COULD be because its yet another shytty CUV but I got deeeeep Chevy vibes with this one. Lots of sameness is what Im saying. BTW, I actually like the Chevy...maybe its all that pollution that we've done killing our planet that has started to affect my brain and its decisions to start liking CUVs like that Chevy Equinox EV thingy...

I...um...appreciate the technology. I TOTALLY get it why this technology exists and is lauded by many. But..um... I hate what it represents for actual humans driving and I hate what it will eventually become for EVERYONE driving even though I dont think autonomous driving will EVER be a thing. I HATE that this technology even exists. I HATE that this technology was even thought of in the first phoquing place. I have NO intentions of EVER using this technology. Maybe when Im old and feeble and cant drive for myself but as long as Im a capable human being, there is NO phoquing way that I will EVER give in to this technology because I KNOW where THIS technology will eventually lead us too.

Buick News: Buick Quietly Releases 2024 Encore GX
oldshurst442 replied to G. David Felt's topic in Buick
No. You would be correct in your thinking. But...the rich Chinese oligarchy types dont live with the commoners so the rules and shytty standard of living dont apply to them. So...that is how big cars in China exist. -

And Ill add... but @trinacriabob came very close by mentioning chicken souvlaki on another post that I didnt quote. Greek lemon roasted chicken and potatoes in the oven... Or same recipe but grilled on a BBQ Ingredients not much different than any other Greek style meat whether lamb or porc or fish for that matter, BBQed or baked in the oven as in lemon, garlic and oregano... Same ole same ole Greek recipe....but... DELICIOUS just the same. My mom (did) and my wife cooks this on a regular basis. In fact...Im about to eat this very thing right now! Love this dish... like A LOT...in Greece. There is something about Greek food...in Greece, that anything prepared and cooked in Greece...just tastes sooooo much better than in North America. Southern deep fried chicken has got to be my 2nd best type of chicken. Yeah..ahead of all the parmesian and masala and Portuguese style and Gebral Tao and all those other great chicken dishes. My favorite fast food chicken is this: with blue cheese dip And...

@David Not fun screwing up your knee. Hope you have a speedy recovery. Hopefully no surgery will be involved but either way, I see lots of physiotherapy in your near future. I had reconstructive knee surgery myself a little more than a decade ago (years of hockey and skiing abuse) only to tell you that I feel your pain literally and figuratively speaking. I think that @surreal1272 went through the same as well. We could be called the 3 Amigos I guess. You could be Chevy Chase because you are the tallest one and I could be Martin Short as I am the shortest one. And @surreal1272 could be Steve Martin because well...he would be the remaining 3rd Amigo. Regarding the upcoming Zora. No...I wouldnt be buying one even if I had the money. 1. Not my type of car. 2. My expectations of life has changed DRASTICALLY the last 24 hours. I would have never bought 100 000 dollar cars in the first place before certain knowledge of certain events that I learned about the last 24 hours, but even moreso now. Although I sooooooo want Chevrolet to release a Corvette like that sometime soon! I have seen myself think in the negative the last month or two. Part of that I think is simple old age cynicism as I get closer to 50. Philosophical realities that older, wiser (hopefully) people experience as they age and see how crappy human nature can be as the naive younger self grows older. On top of that, I also have seen myself wanting to re-live some of my youthful frustrations that I have endured. I am not in a dark place. Im fine even though these last words typed seem like such a downer. Life for me and my family is just GREAT! We are all doing great. Health and love to which I wish everyone here the same as I and my family are!

The Firebird pic went away from this website, I found it again so I could re-post it. Its a beautiful picture. Beautiful scene. Beautiful car. But just in case it goes away again, I will find another convertible Firebird to post to compensate and for us to enjoy another beautiful car that is the 1st gen Firebird.

Talk about Oldsmobile and their ahead of time designs. Profile concept from the year 2000. GM did that plastic grill thing during those times. Being the late '80s early 1990s.

Montreal also has a not so quite similar road. But a deadly one. A small tunnel. It is called 'tunnel de la mort' in French. Tunnel of death. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tunnel_de_la_mort The wiki page doesnt do enough to define how dangerous it is. It is called tunnel of death because there has been MULTIPLE deadly car crashes there. Even BEFORE 1992. It has always had the nickname as far as I can remember. As far back as even the late 1970s... Both intersections have this tunnel thing going on that caused blind spots and drivers could not see the traffic lights properly so on both intersections, both ways, drivers couldnt see the red light to stop and just burned the red light causing deadly collisions. Only one set of tunnels have been demolished in the ealry 2000s. Both tunnels should have been demolished but nothing has happened yet. To add more danger to this shytty tunnel, the sidewalk is too small for pedastrians but because the bridge itself belongs to different railway companies, nothing is happening. The news report is condemning the tunnel, the railway companies and the city by shaming them about the dangers, If you watch the video, even if you dont understand, there are several images where one could see how dangerous it is, especially in the winter. There is a public voice, thanx in part to journalism like this to change this intersection. Report made in 2019... The entire road will eventually be reconfigured. Soon... https://ici.radio-canada.ca/info/videos/media-8034316/renover-tunnel-mort#:~:text=Surnommé le « Tunnel de la,'empruntent%2C selon des citoyens. I have used this road countless of times with my parents and when I got my license and drove for myself. I never had an issue. But it is dangerous.
