Huh, interesting! In the USA, we just got these laws recently, but for protests only, and from the sound of the law, it will only be enforced for people the president does not like

His kid isn’t dead, she just doesn’t go by that name anymore, and it is supremely dickish to treat her like that.

Motorcycle helmet or full-face bike helmet. Problem solved.

What, folks are on me all the fucking time to wear one. If they want to complain that I’m complying, that sounds like a them problem.

Yeah, so… Let’s follow the money, right? This is how I make sense of basically everything in life.

Stellantis gets paid by SiriusXM for every unit they ship with this crap pre-installed. SiriusXM gets paid by either themselves, when they advertise SiriusXM membership to drivers, or they get paid by advertisers. The Mopar Extended Warranty, I bet Mopar is paying for the ad placements.

I’d bet dollars to donuts it’s the free trial for SiriusXM.

When this happened on Jeep vehicles, an apparent Stellantis employee responded on a thread about it. Here’s what they said:

“Thank you for tagging us and we are certainly sorry to hear of the frustration this has caused you. At this time, we advise that customers click the large [X] in the corner to close out and clear stored notifications from the vehicle. It should also be noted that ads are part of your contractual agreement with Sirius XM, but we are working on the frequency. Thank you for your patience.”

Lol, they still haven’t “worked on” the frequency 534 days later.

I think you’re exactly right

The market is already doing that for you - year over year sales for Dodge down 29% in 2024.

If the early fan reaction to the electric Scatpack are any indication, people won’t be lining up to buy it, so expect more of the same.

Get ready to hear that Coca Cola jingle every time you feel thirsty.

If you haven’t tried a second Kia dealership yet, I’d recommend that, too!

Give them your VIN over the phone, ask to schedule the repair under warranty. Might be able to save yourself the headache of going through corporate if the next dealership is less shady than the first.

That’s my assumption, that it’s some legal dodge. Like “we didn’t wire that light, so if you get in trouble for it, technically, you modded your Cybertruck, because we installed an inert lump of plastic and not an off-roading light. YOU installed an off-roading light.” That sort of deal.

The strange thing, all the other manufacturers do ship pre-wired offroad lights. There’s just something about the Cybertruck one that isn’t up to regulatory standard, I’m thinking.

I feel like my Toyota, the towing limit on the spec sheet doesn’t mean “after this number, the hitch snaps off.” For legal reasons, I need to state that that is only a guess, and that I have not tested it on anything but private roads.

For gods sake, the limit should have at least a 25% buffer. 1% buffer is madness. Toyotas, we don’t even know what the buffer is, it’s large enough that I’ve never met anyone who got nerve-wrackingly close to it. I’ve certainly never met a Toyota driver who’s frame or hitch has snapped off. I’ve now seen like 5 Cybertrucks with the whole towing assembly just tumbled across asphalt.

Please tell him he is perfect! He can sponge up all of my attentions

Blew the whole budget on the Tesla, didn’t have any money left over for sand XD

We strive for accuracy here at FuelArc News XD If the story is simple enough, we sometimes even achieve it!

Gentrified forest is the most cursed phrase I heard in a minute.

Just announcing a follow-up self-driving system on their first really pretty bad system has them on an escape trajectory with their stock price.

I’m starting to think Tesla set all the wrong examples for the auto industry.

Can’t deny any of that.

Have I mentioned, I’m broadly surprised by how reasonable the conversations are here versus Reddit? Thanks for that, I think I misunderstood your initial comment

Haha, well, that shows my reading comprehension level!
