Cars 2 Offers More Layers Than A Good Paint Job
There is layer upon layer of intricate detail in the movie Cars 2, the sequel to the successful 2006 Pixar release Cars. But go see the movie. The Pixar team once again constructed an entire world where cars, trucks and boats are the characters. It must be exhausting to work at Pixar. All that hard work is worth it, though, as the movie is so visually intriguing that it will have you wishing you could freeze each frame in the theater. Racing themes with which you'll be familiar also abound. The real Jeff Gordon voices a Chevrolet Corvette C6.R named Jeff Gorvette while Lewis Hamilton voices a McLaren supercar named . Lewis Hamilton. Up in the announcers booth are a Chevy Monte Carlo named Darrell Cartrip, a Jaguar E-type with android car stereo named David Hobbscap and a Ford Mustang named Brent Mustangburger. We'll let you figure those out. When Cars 2 does deliver its life lessons, they don't come as the gentle epiphanies of Cars or Toy Story so much as public-service announcements. Then it's time to rush back out in the world and start the chase anew.
There's a metric ton of Tesla's running the commute ring around Boston every day. People get all freaked out about range when for something like 98.5% of the country they could absolutely commute with a Tesla. I've dug up the statistic before, but range issues simply aren't a think anymore for the overwhelming majority of commuters. Oh, and Immokalee to Napes is 50 miles. What is your position then of the F150 going electric? I originally said, we will be forced to buy these pos under the guise of fixing a manufactured problem. I dont have to like it. I originally said, we will be forced to buy these pos under the guise of fixing a manufactured problem. I dont have to like it. Honest question - why do electric cars upset you? What's the average daily commute in this country? I google it but you could do that yourself.
Here's the first answer that popped up, I do not know the accuracy. According to ABC News, the average American drives 16 miles to work each way, with a daily commute totaling nearly an hour round trip. That would be relevant if you only used your vehicle for that purpose. But speaking of you what's your commute and what do you drive? Mine is either zero or 12 miles depending if I work from home like today and I drive either a 2018 Jeep Rubicon gas or a 2017 Ford F250 diesel but neither of them are primarily used for commuting. Both are being replaced soon but neither with an EV. Personally I think with current technology only the plug-in hybrid makes sense for the vast majority of users. There's no reason the technology to make full EV's practical won't evolve but IMO it's not there yet unless you just want a vehicle for use locally and don't mind overpaying.

The Camaro comes back; the Firebird is the canary in the coal mine for Pontiac, period. 2003: A new Mustang Mach 1 rolls, with the "shaker" scoop and 305 horsepower backed up by a "comfortweave" interior. Side note: does anyone do funky names for features that don't need names, like Detroit does? 2004: Ford signals a new Mustang with a "heritage" concept, and builds its last pony car at the River Rouge complex near Detroit. 2005: At long, long last, there's a new Mustang. 2006: Reconfigurable lighting gives Mustang interiors new colors, and the V-6 version gets a "pony package." The lovely debutante of the 2006 Los Angeles auto show, the Mustang Giugiaro concept, gets treated badly, and goes nowhere except the company archives. 2007: Warriors in Pink and Bullitt editions show a hackneyed, confused automotive press just how gender-inclusive the Mustang brand actually is. 2008: Mustang sales total 9 million--which means there's a ponycar for every citizen of the state of New Jersey. How perfect is that? Ford reveals the 2010 Ford Mustang. 2010-2011 Mustang: The Best Ever? 2010: Wait, it's only been five years--and there's a new Mustang? The 2010 overhaul carries over the V-6 engine, and bumps the V-8 version to 315 hp. 2011: Following Ford's latest new-car trend, the Mustang delivers improvements when they're ready--and not necessarily tied in with a major body change. The 2011 Mustang gets new powertrains: there's a 300-hp, 31-mpg V-6 coming, joined by a 412-hp "5.0" V-8.
