What do you drive?

2002 BMW X5 4.6is, fully loaded, blue with black leather :D

But it might be going soon, the gas consumption is quite horrid, and I can see myself replacing it with a 2-door coupe or a 4-door saloon. I like the E39 5-series but its a heavy car, so it's not going to help the gas bill much.

2009 Infiniti G37 sedan. 328 horsepower...0-60 in 5 seconds. Navigation, rear view camera, 9.1gb hard drive, iPod interface, leather heated seats, cool lights...love the body. Very fun to drive.

My 2001 Ford Explorer Sport. Yep, still have it and will not get rid of it. Has a 215hp engine, goes 0-60 in ... well whenever it gets there ... been a good vehicle with only a few minor issues. Pioneer radio with 2 10inch subs (does "thump" a lot better than the Infiniti Bose system), Garmin Nuvi GPS, turn key ignition, cruise control (not working due to recall), iPod interface (which sucks)...but yea...it is a good vehicle.

It hasn't been washed in a loooong time. New tires though. :)

2008 Ford Mustang. It may be a only V6 with all the V8 GT options--however, it does it's job. A very beautiful car (at least I think so). I had a 1998 Pontiac Firebird/Formula until someone ran a stop sign. I was saving up for the 2010 Camaro, but I needed something to get me back and forth. I spent too much on the Firebird to even think about buying another used one.

Dealer pictures (I haven't gotten around to taking pictures to the snow!):

Here's what I drive. :D Not really. Just what I ride when I go to "The Rave" (concert hall), or get around downtown.

No need for a car being a college student and parking being $80-$100 /month in a parking structure.

When I graduate and can start knocking off my $100k+ of debt, I hope to get an Infinity G35 Coupe.

^They seem to have a show a few times a week. www.therave.com

I just saw Disturbed and Skindred a few weeks ago at The Rave. The place was absolutely packed.

Matisyahu with the Flobots would have been awesome. They both put on a great show at Summerfest this past summer. :D

I bought a GOLF I GTI yesterday:

100 % original inside and outside (except rims and suspension)

there's a stain of rust at the rear right wheel

196 000 km

july 1983

The engine needs a lot work (I hope to drive it this summer)

Plans: getting the engine fixed, maybe some BBS rims and inox exhaust, chrome mirrors, new front and rear bumper

A Toyota Corolla 2009, best car ever IMO. Just got 25,000 km and no problems.

I hope Toyota changed out all that cheapo plastic that plagued the 08 Corolla. I remember seeing Graeme Fletcher on Motoring 08 shake the hell out of the front bumper. "Flimsy fisher price crap" :laugh:

Ahh the good old Florida, always can tell just by looking at a picture, knew it before saw your info :)

Nice car though..

Thanks.

Yeah, Florida is nice during the winter months, but starting right about now and going until about November, it is absolutely miserable with the heat and high humidity. You will break into a sweat just going down to the mailbox to get your mail. I don't plan to live in Florida much longer. 20 years is long enough.

I was in a car accident a couple years ago in my friend's 07 Corolla. It totaled a Hyundai. Then hit a VW head on in the same night. (long story lol)

It held up well, believe me.

    • I don’t get why if I bought the game on the last get I needed to pay $40 to upgrade to the new version in the first place and people who love the game and play a lot would have upgraded already so this is just PR and a chance to grab new players who forgot the game long time ago I think
    • The term "use" is doing a lot of heavy lifting in that headline. "Use" can mean opening ChatGPT occasionally to ask for the definition of a word or information about a specific topic. If you frame the question around how many people use it as a daily driver in their work or personal lives, that number is a lot smaller. Those are the people who pay for AI. Nearly everyone else is happy to use it for free, but doesn't see enough value in it to pay for it.
    • No support for Windows Hello!
    • I think you meant the "ntfs3" driver, but yes there have been a lot of fixes for it in this release and previous releases, not 100% sure if the issue you mentioned is fixed though. In any case, the new "ntfs" driver in 7.1 doesn't have that issue (at least, no reports of such have come thru), but your kernel needs to explicitly enable support for the new driver first (like how CachyOS kernel has it), and you need to edit your mount points in /etc/fstab to use "ntfs" instead of the other drivers.
    • Epic Games says Unreal Engine 6 will help developers "build content faster" using AI models by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Epic Games is rolling out the latest major update to Unreal Engine 5 today, and at the same time, the company also dropped some information on the next-generation version of the product, Unreal Engine 6. This was already revealed a few weeks ago alongside the new Rocket League upgrade reveal. The company says it is combining the features of Unreal Engine and Unreal Editor for Fortnite to create this new version of its popular media creation tool. On top of creating entire games, the new engine will also focus on letting developers operate large-scale live service titles more easily, whether by shipping content into their own ecosystems or into Fortnite. The use of large language models is also mentioned here, with Epic saying it will be a core part of the engine. "We see LLMs, generative AI models, and tools like Claude and Codex playing a central role in helping you build content faster while maintaining the creative control you need," adds the company. Here is the rundown of what's new about version 6 of Unreal Engine: With all these changes to the programming model, portability upgrades, and generative AI integration, Epic says the new version of the engine will "change a lot about how games are made." The company aims to ship Unreal Engine 6 into early access in late 2027, with a full release planned for 12-18 months later. Epic Games also dropped a lengthy blog post about the new Unreal Engine 5.8 update for game developers over here. The release is focused on delivering better performance, customization, and streamlined workflows for development teams. This will be the final major update for this version of the engine before Epic switches to focus fully on Unreal Engine 6's early access launch.
