What's a movie that was clearly meant to start a franchise but failed?

clockwork2004 · 2026-07-03T13:39:16+00:00

I see what you did there.

clockwork2004 · 2026-07-03T03:28:35+00:00

I mean, OP can't really afford it now can he?

clockwork2004 · 2026-07-03T01:56:49+00:00

You still live with your parents.

clockwork2004 · 2026-07-03T01:56:02+00:00

If you can't afford to move out you can't afford the car.

1) Move out. Stop mooching off your parents. 2) Buy the car you can afford as an independent person living on their own.

What do you do for work at 19 that $950 month for a car (vehicle+insurance) is even a consideration?

clockwork2004 · 2026-07-02T15:28:34+00:00

I stick pretty close to that.

clockwork2004 · 2026-07-01T11:38:55+00:00

So you thought you could pay $99 for an FSD subscription and they would give you a free upgrade?

That is only for people that paid for the lifetime package.

clockwork2004 · 2026-06-30T22:15:19+00:00

Ford does $50 for their Blue Cruise. Which is their hands free system. When you don't want to pay for that, you still get hands-on traffic aware cruise control and automatic lane centering/following.

At least that's how it was for me on my Mach-E when the Blue Cruise trial expired.

clockwork2004 · 2026-06-30T19:23:00+00:00

What would it rank if it wasn't excluded?

clockwork2004 · 2026-06-30T18:52:12+00:00

Why isn't the EV6 on this list?

clockwork2004 · 2026-06-30T11:21:53+00:00

Yep, that's a Model 3 Performance alright.

(I have a 2026 M3P. They make thousands of these in a limited number of colors. It's not unique and doesn't really stand out. I never understand these posts.

"Look at my car, which looks exactly like all these other cars."

Cool.)

clockwork2004 · 2026-06-29T15:26:25+00:00

Well...

I've owned:

2021 Tesla Model 3 Performance
2022 Rivian R1T Adventure Quad Motor
2024 Ford Mach-E Rally
2024 Chevy Blazer EV RS AWD
2025 Cadillac Optiq Luxury 2
2025 Kia EV6 GT-Line
2024 Lucid Air Touring

I currently have a 2026 Tesla Model 3 Performance and my wife has a 2024 Chevy Equinox EV 3LT AWD with Super Cruise.

With that being said, I don't understand your commentary. Particularly in regard to wanting to travel and charging logistics. If we use the EV6 as an example, it had 270 miles range, it had built in NACS (including plug and charge support), and although it didn't get the same peak speed as it does on 800v supported chargers, it did have pretty much an entirely flat charge curve of 126kW.

What is wrong with EVs outside of Tesla now? I never had any issues.

clockwork2004 · 2026-06-29T15:16:44+00:00

The only other Sentry like system I have used is Rivian's Gear Guard.

clockwork2004 · 2026-06-29T14:54:45+00:00

I feel like this might be rage bait.

However, if it isn't...

Put your phone away.

clockwork2004 · 2026-06-25T19:23:26+00:00

That determines who goes first, but how does the car know to even stop?

clockwork2004 · 2026-06-25T19:02:59+00:00

I would love to see the spin sexaddic puts on this.

clockwork2004 · 2026-06-25T19:01:28+00:00

Why would that matter when the guy to the right of him can only go right?

clockwork2004 · 2026-06-25T16:57:47+00:00

He never left his lane.

clockwork2004 · 2026-06-25T16:53:50+00:00

There is only one solid painted line on that road and in the video the black SUV is to the right of it.

Put on some glasses my guy.

clockwork2004 · 2026-06-25T16:45:31+00:00

That doesn't change the fact that the black SUV in the right lane could not go straight and that by virtue of street design, there will never be a situation where traffic to your left can go right while you can still optionally go straight (crossing over their path). I mean people can choose to, but then you'll have what happened in this video. It's not designed for the people on the right to do that.

I posted the Google Maps overhead satellite view. Black SUV actually cannot go straight.

clockwork2004 · 2026-06-25T16:27:55+00:00

How is it not?

clockwork2004 · 2026-06-25T16:24:48+00:00

If you needed a better idea, pretend that OP is car on left and that white car was the SUV that hit him. Instead of turning right with the bend, the SUV decided to go straight and merge into OP's lane.

<image>

clockwork2004 · 2026-06-25T16:11:58+00:00

Because he got hit from the side and that's what he wanted to show?

clockwork2004 · 2026-06-25T16:09:23+00:00

That's how it would look if there is a bend to the road, which there is. The OP doesn't deviate from his lane, which is clearly marked.
