Why does this make you boomers so mad? The screens are better. You can watch YouTube and play movies. You can basically do anything in your car now. You guys need to accept the future and stop being a bunch of boomers missing outdated crap like manual transmissions
>>29086835i just dont like them for aesthetic and maintainability reasons, and find it to be lazy design (since they just slap a tablet in instead of having a >HOLISTIC set of gauges/buttons)it's the same as how you can tell a cheap car from ye olde times before 2018 by what style the buttons are. if they're available on DigiKey, your car is a practical shitbox, if they're available at Harbor Freight then it's some shit even indians would reject for being too lazy

https://www.wsj.com/business/autos/carmakers-have-a-new-idea-to-boost-ev-range-add-a-gas-engine-16bbcc34They finally did the 10+ year old meme. I never understood why they never did it. Simply put a generator on a car built in. How the actual fuck did it take until almost 2027 to do this. HOW FUCKING STUPID ARE HUMANS?It really boggles the mind. ai can't come save us from ourselves soon enuf
>>29080795>Simply put a generator on a car built in.Isn't this what Nissan's e-Power deal is all about?
Like with most things in the EV world, Alan Cocconi perfected this in the 90s only for it to be thrown away until some auto manufacturer "invents" it again 30 years later (see also vehicle to grid). I also have blueprints for a series hybrid from the 1970s. This is old hat, especially if you consider the Volt could reasonably be called a series hybrid, news is just being retarded as usual.
>>29082407e-power is a series hybrid but you have no way to charge the battery aside from the engine so it's not a real range extender. Hybrids themselves have been used as far back as WW1.
>>29080795>Not using this onehttps://m.youtube.com/watch?v=esLw_-NHeLc
>>29080795A gas generator can fully charge an EV battery on 1-2 gallons of gas, it just takes like 16 hours. But you get more efficient mileage than a gas engine alone.

what about EV motorcycles tho

why does this interior make me want to buy unreliable pieces of shit from the late 80’s and early 90’s?
>>2908682390s Nissans had such good interiors.
>>29086825I agree.
Okay, but what about the maroon interior
>>29086751>>29086786Love me tanSimple as
>>29086864Oh baby; yeah, I like that, too.Probably rough to keep clean, though...ITT incidentally, the kei truck keeps its 80s interior all though way into the current year.
This board has a bit of an inferiority complex around trucks.
the question is, did OP actually intend to be dunked on by everybody else on this thread (because he likes it) or could he not foresee this because he is retarded?
>>29085847Cyclist was at fault.
I currently have a Cheby Colorado but thinking of getting a Ranger Raptor maybe when the refresh hits. I test drove it before getting the Colorado and it was probably the most fun I 've ever had driving something. Is it worth the 20k price difference though
Is every truck thread like this?
>>29086868trucks aren't stupid but truck owners are stupid and everyone who hates trucks conceptually are stupid so yes
I did 150mph today. My personal top speed (in a car) and it was actually my car lmao. I've gone fast in dealer cars before but nothing too crazy considering the traffic during work hours where I would have had access. Feels good man. Also, dead of night, two lane straight road through the woods where I see deer daily. But I said FUCK IT, YOLO, and turned up my $uicideboy$ and floored it. I hit 100 every time I drive but this had soul. I wish I had more road, it was still pulling. USA Autobahn when? AINT CALLED THE AUTOBAHN TRIM FOR NUTHIN HOSS
150 is actually like 140, speedos over report. If you get it remapped you can get upto about 170
>>29083741Stop posting.Take a few moments.
I hit 150 a lot.

Does anyone know what these gold Teslas are? I see them rolling around my neighborhood with out of state plates that say "MFG" on them. I took a few more frames in color.
>>29083221>Would be cool to hack logitech steering wheel and pedals into it >>29083443>Based. I like your thinking.Be careful or you'll end up like the last guy who tried that...
>>29086752The logikek controller was probably the least retarded part of that whole fiasco
>>29086775>least retardedBut still pretty retarded, all things considered.
>>29086693I did. It's costed 28 cents a mile for the past 6 years. It would be more expensive to ride in the tesla, potentially devastating financially. Gas prices are a significant factor, my geo metro costed only 9 cents a mile. When you aren't comparing it to a truck, this cost is absurd.
>>29086693Ok, let's lease a mirage because I've done the math before. 350 a month for a 12k mile lease 2k due at signing ($6200). 12k miles at an average of 42mpg is 285.7 gallons of gas at a current price of $4 here ~($1200) and my insurance on a car this new would be ~$150 a month ($1800)$9200/12000mi = 76 cents a mile. Does the above sound like a financially stupid as fuck idea? Because it can be that expensive. 30 TO 70 cents a mile.
This is good news for EV owners and future owners, especially those in the used car market.Its time to make the switch, /o/
>>29086248>6 pouch-cell modules (from an unknown manufacturer)> 96 cells split across two parallel system blocks, almost like 2 battery packs connected externaly into one pack>A complex BMS system with 16 slave BMS units, 2 masters, and 1 GTW controller Wow, that's a retarded battery setup....
>>29086447>Though ICE is a little bit more directly usage=wear and tear.ICE is almost entirely wear & tear from start-ups before the engine is up to temp and planned obsolescence like plastic water pumps. Look at LED lightbulbs, supposedly better than incandescent but die just as quickly and cost 5x as much. That's the future of technological "advancements" now.
>>29086248Yeah this makes more sense. 70k sounded absolutely retarded.
>>29086484The germs love doing this shit. Everything's designed as if they wanted to assemble a thousand variations of the same thing.Their electronic modules are often split into half a dozen smaller boards, which are individually connected and fastened, modules within modules. Maybe it's just their ridiculous supply chains.Despite all this, they're usually not repairable without swapping out the entire larger module because nobody can debug the clusterfucks on a low enough level. Occasionally, the things end up failing precisely because there are so many fasteners that one of them coming loose and disconnecting or shorting something in there is not terribly unlikely.And then there's the pure genius moves like embedding the big pyrofuse into the BMS in such a manner that the entire module has to be tossed if the fuse goes off. What could be a $30 parts bill can end up being more like $1000. Brilliant engineering.
>>29086703It IS $70k if you buy a new battery (+labor)

>>29085942Yeah those look good.Buy with confidence!
>>29086561Tell me the miles.
I want tires that can never deflate for any reason, including punctures.
>>29085169I'm sure the grip will be stellar
>>29085169Destiny is calling

>>29084428I guess not. First time I bought tires for a car was 2018. First time for a bike was 2017. In any case, we're talking about current year. Go ahead and buy the chinkshit tire as long as it's DOT approved. You might be able to skirt the rules and find some fly by night bullshit off of Alibaba that's a trailer tire(allegedly) but you get what I'm saying.
just buy hankook or some shit
>>29085876Cup 2s are decent but there are better options in that segment. PS4S are overrated as fuck
