Solution for this:
Waves of snowplows in each lane. Go too slow and you get chucked off the motorway. Plows travel at the following speeds:

>60mph on the inside lane
>70mph in the middle lane
>70-90mph on the outside line (Depending on traffic)
>20mph on the hard shoulder to incentivise not breaking down.

fixed ur roads

she's always coming to me with car issues and i dont want to fuck around if shes going to buy a shit car for the next 7 years

>>17871019
Oh, then she should definitely not buy a GM product. Lexus RX is a much, much better car.

the fact that you are asking on /o/ and not doing it already shows that you will never do it.

stick to swapping engines in Forza, kid

by 50k you mean 50grand? for a fucking 4rotor?

>>17870910
Wasn't asking because I wanted to do it. I'm smart enough to know of the rotary meme. I'm just asking to know how dumb it is. Is it even close to worth it

No lie I'd drive a aerostar like that one in the op.

Not hard to beat contemporary car design.

Crossover is the shittiest meme in car design
You may not like it but MPVs are what peak practicality looks like.

I mean this is probably something like the id-x where it wont actually ever happen

Right, here's the problem with EV's in motorsports.

>They're fucking lame.

Look at Formula E. Sure it's really cool in concept and its cool in the sense that a lot of hard work and engineering has to go into creating these cars, but it's really not all that interesting as a series. If the battery runs low in one of the cars, they switch cars to let one recharge while one is out on the track. So there's no frantic pit stops, there's no in and out in 10 seconds and back to racing. It's watching a driver get out of one car and get into the other.

The other thing about EVs in motorsports is that it loses that "sexiness" that current ones have. Think about how movies or documentaries dramatize racing. It's usually a lot of revving, a lot of engine noise. There's also a lot of shifting (look at the F&F franchise). That's some of the parts that make racing so cool. I can't see a bunch of cars whirring or humming along be as cool. It's too quiet. Hell, Formula 1's fans were pretty much revolting when the V6 hybrids sounded like shit especially compared to the V12, V10, V8's.

So EV's in motorsports? Maybe. The change could happen but I think it would be so hard and turn off so many fans that it wouldn't be something that will change anything any time soon.

You know that LaFerrari, Porsche, Acura NSX already has electric motors already right? They use them to provide instant power out of the corners then the main engine takes over.

Hybrids are already the norm. The biggest roadblock for all electric performance cars are the batteries

>Fomula E
>drivers have to change cars when the battery runs low

For the most part they look better.

>inferior in every MEASURABLE way

>>17870393
Having people like your car makes them buy it more.

More sales are a measurable way.

14mi here, I-12 is a 1.5 hr drive at any time of the day unless it's 2am
my 323i gets around 30mpg and i made it comfy for this purpose

it gets ridiculous how many people are on the road and how few of them can actually drive

Get a motorcycle and split lanes, faggot.

>>17870135
Bump, anyone know about used hybrids?

Any advice? I'm really looking into this possibly $1800 Prius lol

Nvm, just read on Toyota forums that batteries degrade with time. They usually fail at 15 years and I don't think they go past 17. Mileage doesn't matter which is why my company's Prius has 500k miles those cheap bastards.

>Why is it so difficult to get into 1st sometimes?
Maybe you need a new clutch?

Have you checked your tranny fluid? I'm not an expert but maybe that's why you have difficulty shifting into first. I'd start with cleaning it the best I can, inside and out.
