  1. It is funny and kind of ironic, considering the police have laptops in their cars..
  2. This looks a lot better than the Elantras sold here.
  3. They both are trying too hard stylistically to be weird. The previous gen Silverado was at it's best in 14-15, then it got overly busy w/ the '16 MCE. The new one just has too many fussy front end details and random contours on the fenders, IMO. I like the front end styling on the '14-15 and the previous generation from around 2010. Clean, no nonsense. Not trying to be agressively wierd.
  4. Seems like an opportunity for criminal enterprise also...chemists making synthetic street drugs could get into the battery game..more profitable long term probably.
  5. Sounds like battery makers need to work on coming up with a synthetic lithium alternative..
  6. Yeah, the full bling version would be the Kardashian Signature Edition... an understated version would make sense also..
  7. Cadillac should offer an over the top interior package for the Escalade.. use the ESV, remove the 2nd row of seats, make the third row have recliners w/ ottomans, marble floors w/ persian rugs, Doric column pillar trim, statuaries, alligator skin leather w/ leopard print inserts, etc. Go as crassly blingy as they can.
  8. Not yet. Been there 6 years. Was Ghosn's idea for them to focus on the China market.
  9. And Infiniti moved their HQ to Hong Kong a few years ago..
  10. Saw a sharp silver 64 Olds 88 2dr ht gliding along this evening, and a sharp bright blue Chevy SS.
  11. I wonder if you can get tempered glass screen protectors for car touchscreens like you can for phones and tablets.
  12. Oh well..didn't Lincoln do something like this back when Ford had PAG? Moved to Orange County---Irvine IIRC...
  13. I saw the concept in person at an auto show back then, IIRC. I like the design of it over allexcept for the jutting lower front fascia. The roofline and doors remind me of the 2011+ Chargers a bit...(exaggerated, but similar themes).
  14. Silverado outside mirrors, a roof bulge, and a periscope would make the Camaro more drivable for you..;)
  15. Sharp...do you plan to have yours look like this, or are you going to keep the patina?
  16. The front of the Camaro doesn't look bad on a dark gray or black car...with dark colors all the black plastic up front blends in better...but on a white, yellow, bright red car...ugh..
  17. I liked the awkwardness..proof he is a human and not a cyborg. I think like too many startup founders, he takes on too much of the day-to-day operations and planning himself and doesn't delegate to experienced leaders enough. Successful companies are not one-man operations. Couple that with what appears to be ADHD and new-idea-every-minute thinking seems to work against him.
  18. Elon is never dull, always interesting to listen to...
  19. Motivation, stamina, being a dreamer with a practical side, maybe? I've never been motivated strictly by money...and I know my physical and mental limits..I burn out from working too many hours...I can't do 60-90hr weeks like I could do when I was younger.. or the kind of single focus obsessive lifestyle I've experienced in PhD life or startups..
  20. I do remember working at a couple of small companies that had pot at company parties and at one place the CEO had a bong in his office...but that was in Colorado nearly 20 years ago...Colorado is an interesting place... Weird factoid, Elon Musk and I have the same birthday, but I'm a year older. Also same birthday as John Cusack, John Elway..
  21. Beer is legal in most of the US, though, weed only in a few states (and still not legal federally). Given the levels of stress he probably deals with running 3 companies and working 150hrs/week I could understand taking something to relax. I don't know he does it, would think he'd have had a heart attack by now...
  22. Cool...more sports cars, more 2drs is a good thing...too many damn FWD CUV appliances coming out..
  23. Those first two pics were an actual Charger concept car from 20 years ago, the 2nd pics are some randos idea, not anything FCA.
  24. Always liked the big Audis.
  25. I've seen that pic..it's delicious...love the squared roofline and decklid..would like to see clearly defined forms like that return...
