With regard to the charging and range situations, it not a phenomenon unique to the Bolt, it applies to all other pure EVs. Charging and range limitations are really big negatives for a large number of car owners in this country. The USA is a huge place with a petroleum based car culture going back since almost the beginning of the automobile. While I would bet long road trips are infrequent for most car owners, their place in our psyche is larger than in real life. family vacations, emergency last minute dashes across hundreds (or even thousands) of miles, college travel (prospective college visits, move in day, spring break, et al), distant special events (concerts, sports, etc) are all disproportionately enshrined in our collective conscious compared to our daily commutes. pure EVs just can fill this need yet. they will get there with time, but until then, it is unreasonable to pretend it not a significant drawback. There is really no point in trying to convince someone to buy an EV by downplaying this fact. they are great second cars, and they are great cars for people who are fed up with big oil/climate change/high gas prices, and hence willing to adjust their lifestyle as necessary. for most everyone else, hybrids and ICE vehicles are a much safer bet, and a much easier sell.

Hardware Make sure the glides are of a good quality and are soft close (a standard these days). Ask your retailer how they handle requests for broken glides and hardware a year or years down the road. As for hinges, are they self closing? Are they of good quality? The hinge on your door actuates a lot in the course of its life, and you do not want to be constantly adjusting the hinges or replacing them.

My 12 year old recently went on a camping trip with some of his dads friends. While on this ‘camping’ trip the following happened. The old ladys grand daughter was ‘upset’ so the woman gave her car keys to my son and told him to take her grand daughter for a drive. I find it really dangerous, and normally I tend to break and start driving really slow whenever I have one of those “stickers” behind me. does anyone know how much it would cost to paint a Peugeot 205 GTI?What car did you learn to drive in?by Renee S 6 years ago

The “Nordschleife”, or “north loop”, of Fangio’s day ceased to be considered viable for Formula One back in 1976, after Niki Lauda at the time the fastest driver around the circuit suffered a near fatal accident when a suspected suspension failure caused his car to slide off the track, overturn and burst into flames on the second lap of the grand prix. Aside from its limited run off and relative narrowness, it is the sheer length that makes it so difficult to adequately marshal and therefore highly dangerous. Even in its shortest of several configurations, it measures an exhausting 20.8km but when Fangio won in 1954 the course was almost 2km longer and the race lasted a gruelling 22 laps.

So we have NOS, Engine and Body as the top three, Tires and Trans are almost useless, and a time gap of 0.203s between NOS and Trans. Overall, not very impressive numbers from these S6 parts but this is expected as a fully max’d LB M3 GTS has a max evo tune that is just over.6s quicker than S5 with full fusions.

But it is the post 1969 bikes, built after BMW moved motorcycle production from Munich to Spandau in West Berlin, that are attracting both touring riders and collectors. “Before the move to Spandau, BMW motorcycles were expensive to produce and not sold all over the world. Each bike was assembled by an individual engineer, asystem that was not financially viable andalmost bankrupted the company,” explains Peter Ardron, chairman of the UK based BMW Airhead Fellowship. “But production changed completely after that, because the plant shifted to more efficient build methods while retaining the existing standards of quality. That’s when BMW Motorrad really took off.”Ardron cites the R90S as one of the most sought after classic models, around 17,500 examples of which were built from 1973 to 1976. Featuring an 898cc engine producing 67bhp, a small “bikini” fairing and a neat “ducktail” seat, the bike had a top speed of 125mph, effortless cruising ability and distinctive looks, thanks to its “smoke effect” paintwork insilver grey or Daytona orange.

I overall love the experience so far mostly on looks, build quality, interior fit out, savings from not filling up at the gas station and launch speed off the line. In terms of driving preference, I coming from a 333HP BMW M3 with similar weight balance, winter blizzaks, etc. My daily round trip is 26 miles but also needed something to do a 100 mile roundtrip on weekends to see kids/parents in nearby towns. I driving in the midwest with ice and snow, cold temps, rain, etc.

Now, that said, I am not saying that the police report is 100% full of shit, and it may in fact be more representative of what actually happened, but from personal and professional experience, I can tell you that if you take them as the absolute truth, there a good chance you going to be misled.

It weird because the fee apparently is completely separate from de Ligt contract. sports, the agent commission is almost always proportional to the size of the player contract and any endorsement deals rather than a separate fixed payment. A commission around 5% is typical for a new contract, although for example the NFL and NBA limit agent fees to 3% of the contract under their collective bargaining agreements. Commissions can be higher for players in other sports and for endorsement deals, up to around 10% sometimes.

It’s a small car. I went from a sports car to a Mini, which to me was a big jump in size. A lot of people complain that these cars have very little storage space. It’s not meant to be a family car, it’s meant to be a fun car that can barely fit four people. I can hold a lot in my car, it just requires a bit of effort. However, the more expensive models have more space.

I don know, that why I asking.But lets see, for NAV, it needs your position. OK, the GPS chip could be in there. Your speed might be nice. What would be easier, polling GPS satellites and getting their estimation? Or getting it from the engine computer?Some high end cars play fake engine sounds inside the car so the driver feels more satisfied by the sound of their engine. So, that another case of the engine talking to the soundsystem, which this unit, by virtue of it being the controller of your stereo, is getting feedback from the engine.And, some of those dvd players also get feedback from the engine computers, so they can black out the bfakn.club screen when the cars moving. Unless you think they polling GPS instead?So yeah. pretty sure that Dash Nav systems are talking to the rest of the car, either directly, or at least talking to a component that also talks to the engine.

Currently, the i3 has been sitting in the shop for 3 weeks waiting on warranty parts from the mothership the heating system leaked coolant on the primary high voltage cable. While it was still driving as normal, it had an ominous warning of a drivetrain malfunction that “should continue to drive; yet get service soon”

What I saw from my numbers was that the Tesla does cost less to operate. But when I consider the additional up front costs and added insurance, it not quite competitive with Civics (or Accords) yet. Especially compared to the hybrids and/or if one doesn drive a lot. Of course, with different energy prices, different driving rates, etc, things change.

In terms of accidents, you right, that what insurance is for. My insurance company charges less for a Civic than a Model 3. IIRC it a 20%+ difference with the 3 being more expensive. The risk with insurance is if you get into a small “fender bender” in the 3. If it ends up taking 6 10 weeks to fix, as many have found, your insurance company may only provide a loaner for the first 4 weeks. If you need the 3 for work, that a major problem. Renting a car for weeks is massively expensive. Of course there the argument that you less likely to die in a 3, and that death is worse, but I say all of this to say that small collision that are normally a non issue become a real risk. I haven attempted to quantify the risk.

Madonna hosted the first MTV Video Award show. She stood atop a huge wedding cake, and while wearing a wedding gown and white gloves, rolled around on the floor! She has said it was “the most blatant sexual thing” she ever did on TV. The film stars her in a hilarious love story and case of mistaken identity, and introduced her song, “Into the Groove.”

The car was unveiled inside the belly of a cargo plane at John F. Kennedy International Airport in New York. Inside, BMW’s executives displayed working versions of some of the technologies being considered for the car, including touch sensitive fabrics and interactive projections. As with any concept vehicle, it’s not yet clear which aspects or capabilities will actually be in the production version.

People don’t like to factor in depreciation into annual expenses thinking it comes into play only when you sell. But for a very good reason, in accounting, depreciation of assets are accounted each year. So in the case of a brand new BMW (or any other similar brand) your expenses in the first year can very well be almost a 100K.

OP, I am confused you think people are pretentious for driving a Lexus, BMW, or Mercedes. Basically they have a character flaw. I get that. Fine your opinion. But what I DONT get is how you are judging people by their material things but think that people that had those things are a snob. Why are YOU focusing on the material. THAT is so confusing to me.

You will also need to specify the actice cell phone number for use with your account. Only one active phone number per account is allowed per subscription fee. You can have more than one active phone number linked to your account but you have to pay an additional subscription fee for each additional active phone number. If your phone number changes, you can add your new phone number, deactivate the old number, then activate the new number and you will not be charged the additional subscription fee.

Either way, I’m thinking of possibly a Britax or Radian XT brand for me. There are so many things to consider, including whether I want an infant seat or convertible seat and if I want it to be compatible with the stroller. Also, since we may get 2 maybe we’ll get one infant and one convertible??? Or maybe we’ll share for a while and then get a 2nd one later when the baby gets bigger. So much ladies, my head is about to explode!!!

If you have both of these symptoms then the culprit is very likely to be a stripped gear inside the transfer case motor. The transfer case actuator motor is a small motor that is bolted on to the transfer case and can be removed and replaced (or repaired with a new internal gear).

However, the person who first developed a rotor was Abraham Louis Perrelet (1729 1826), one of Switzerland’s greatest watchmakers of all time, considered the father of the automatic watch. He introduced the concept in 1770 and was way ahead of his time since the invention was better suited to wristwatches and Perrelet lived in the pocket watch era. Obviously, the watches couldn’t move in pockets enough to wind the mainspring, so the rotor system didn’t perform well. Another Swiss watchmaker, Abraham Louis Breguet (1747 1823) improved self winding watches and named them “perpetuelles” (the likely source of Rolex’s term). Other watchmaking greats of the 19th century advanced the concept. But it wasn’t until World War I that Rolex perfected its system and automatic watches became popular.
