Is owning a dealership a good business? From my understanding, if you have a franchise for new cars, then your reputation depends on your service department.

What a bout used car dealerships? I know a guy in town because we both have the same car (high end German) and he seems to be doing pretty well for himself.

I can't speak for other helicals, but the torsen units, but the torsen units are 100% non-rebuildable so far as I know. If you open the carrier and accidentally drop out the pairs, it's grounds for tears trying to reinstall them in the correct orientation for smooth engagement.

it's funny to see people with stripper model r/ts try and do a burnout and the car wiggles its butt around trying to brake vector itself into spinning both wheels. EBD is a meme.
i did a hellcat lsd swap into my v6 chally and it roasts its rubber on command.
the whole character of the car changed too, with the lsd the back end squats and stays planted under power in corners, completely unlike the absolute clowncar pegleg behavior of the stock vehicle. unironically the best $1000 i ever spent and one of the most fun car mods i've ever done.

>The base price for the BYD Qin L and Seal 06 is 99,800 yuan ($13,775)

2 months ago, BYD announced that their Qin and Seal 06 hybrid models will use their latest powertrain, which is the most efficient in the world, giving it 2100km+ range. When this was posted on /o/, everybody claimed it was fake news and not a real technology.

This week, Toyota announced that they will use this new powertrain technology in their Corolla hybrids, so basically just selling a BYD hybrid car and slapping the Toyota brand logo on it.

What does /o/ think about this? Is Toyota getting scammed by this fake BYD technology? Or is this actually real?

Any other car brands come close to Tesla's auto pilot? Want to get my wife away from Tesla but she's hooked on how nice it is in rush hour traffic and for highway cruises.

Would want to get her something more upscale, so maybe German.

Well...

Here is a study by Volvo (who are switching to 100% EV and have every incentive to make them look good):
https://www.volvocars.com/images/v/-/media/applications/pdpspecificationpage/c40-electric/specifications/volvo-carbon-footprint-report.pdf

Manufacturing & driving a car for 200k km: Volvo XC40 ICE emits 59 tonnes of CO2, Volvo C40 EV emits 50 tonnes on global energy mix, 42 tons on European mix. The EV has ~70% of the ICE emissions when you drive it 200k km in Europe. You have to drive it for 77k km before you break even on CO2, and 49k km if you used wind power only. That is nowhere close the pipe dream of "zero emissions" vehicles.

Another example: Volvo Polestar 2
https://www.polestar.com/us/polestar-2/specifications/

Cradle-to-gate emissions: 22.4 tons (22 400 000 grams) of CO2. Honda Civic diesel from 2002 emits 134g / km traveled (https://www.cars-data.com/en/honda-civic/co2-emissions). This means you can drive the civic for 167k km before you offset the production emissions of a new EV. How long before the EV breaks even on CO2 using European electricity mix? What happens when a battery has to be replaced (which was not accounted for in either of the examples)?
If you care about environment, buy and drive a used car.

people hate the way gay men act.
if they were just dudes who enjoy other dudes and that was the only difference there would be absolutely no problem with them.
but no being gay is a whole public personality for them and they have to act like brainless californian valley girls and obsess over useless foppery. quite frankly nobody likes women who act like that either.
