>Federal bureaucrats intend to mandate automated braking in all new cars – if the car companies don’t install these systems in every car they sell on their own initiative.

>These systems – which use radar proximity sensors to detect the presence of an object in the car’s path and apply the brakes automatically if the driver doesn’t – are already in about a third of 2016 model year cars, but not yet force-fed to the public by government edict.

>GM, Ford, Toyota, VW, Mercedes, BMW and Volvo have already committed – on their own – to making automated braking standard equipment in all their models within the next few years.

People hear cars coming and dont bother to look to assess the distance because they assume the driver will brake. No such thing als failure, a maniac or wet roads which might make last second braking moot.
Those are often people slightly older than me, and back in elementary we were taught to look both ways.

I like it as added safety, as much as i like self driving cars to get all those dui/text and driving people off the controls, but it having to be mandatory irks me.
Also the wording. "If you dont do it on your own we'll force you to"

Why can't Mitsubishi compete?

Imagine if Mitsubishi jumped back into the gas vehicle market with a RWD sports car called the Zero, chassis code A6M. Have it be powered by a twin turbo 4.5L all aluminum DOHC V8 with variable valve timing and direct injection, coupled to a bitching 7 speed manual trans.

I would cum buckets.

I would buy it in white, attach little wings to sides, hang airsoft guns under them, slap on a few red meatballs, and go shoot at boomershit vehicles.

Because they don't have the money or time to compete.
same thing happened with the Jap Zero.

took em like 5 years to make a world class plane.
took America 1 year to kick their asses.

Oh, and it's not as pigfat as your example(782kg? WHAT THE FUCK?!), and it doesn't need a huge as fuck cooling system, because it's not a marine motor.

The Mercury only makes 1650 on 112 octane race gas by the way. It also costs 68 grand, whereas a decent twinturbo big block by Nelson is about 50 grand, and offers more power in a smaller package.

Nub here. Why, out of all the V configurations, is the V8 the one people pay the most attention to, and/or is seemingly the most desirable?

>V2

>V4
>V5
>V6
>V8
>V10
>V12
>V14
>V16
>V18

Yet people derail V6s and worship V8s? Why? I seriously don't know. Why not covet V10s or V12s?

That's why cars are for the open road IMO.
Take the average speed of your commute through traffic. If it's less than 30 Km/h Buy a bike or you're a cuck.

People look at their phones at red lights. They miss half the green lost in text message land.

>>14507018
Whenever I'm the first person at a stoplight I intensely watch the light and gun it the second it turns green just so making somebody else miss the light is on the conscience of the person behind me instead of myself.

Who here loves fuel efficiency? I know I fuckin do.

The new Mazda skyactiv technology rivals volkswagens turbo Diesel engines. Schwing, right?! I couldn't believe it. But now I do.
For those about to drive efficiently, we salute you.

Talk about fuel efficient cars and the sick mileage they get and how the extra money in your pocket makes you the man.

There's also no replacing the money you lose by not driving a fuel efficient vehicle you idiot. And for what? Going to the mall?

You're the kind of person that retires with no money because you wasted it all on useless things.

how much do you pay for insurance, how old you you have to be before it starts getting cheaper

25 is when the first big drop happens. Drive safe, don't get tickets, don't be a retard, it'll go down on its own in time. Until then, remember that driving is a privilege and not a right.

It gets cheaper when you get married. My buddy is 24, married, 6 speeding tickets and he pays next to nothing on auto/motorcycle insurance.

>>14500183
I'm 26 and I pay 65 a month for full coverage on my Tahoe. When I turned 25 (no tickets since high school) it dropped down to 45 a month from 75, but I got 2 tickets in 6 months. Both were bullshit, but I lost in court.
