    And my bet is no more than 8 years from the S class from being fully self driving, or whenever the next full generation is after 8 years since I doubt they'd redo the platform if they had a sudden AI breakthrough.

    In other news what do you guys think about that the next jaguar XJ will be fully electric by the next generation? I personally find it sad that those big shouty jag V8s are going away

    I guess that's what happens because of petrol being finite.

    No, that's what happens because of EV hype and choking restrictions.

    I have no idea why but I've always wanted a Kompressor Mercedes straight from Russia for some reason.

    Humans are naturally resistant to change. The fact the Chuck doesn't bend over and spread his ass cheeks for whatever is over the horizon is not necessarily a bad thing. Change has led to plenty of good in the past, but it has also led to a generation of people so hungry for internet fame, or just so stupid, that they will eat laundry detergent.

    Yup, just like Peterbilt's signature says, play stupid games, win stupid prizes.

    We don't have any dirt roads here because all the yuppies put their housing developments on them.

    Why were 2018 cars already out in 2017?














    Because car manufacturers use time warps to be 4 months ahead of us.

    It's really because either it's gonna be popular that next year after release, or it's the official year that it's made in.
    Examples include the 2018 Camry, Odyssey, and the LaCrosse Avenir.

    being educated and being intelligent are two very different things.

    Oh well. As long as there's rich mommies and daddies to spoil and shelter their kids, there's always going to be people like that. At least we don't have an entire god damned generation of them anymore.
