Hold on, I’m getting a message. Ah. It appears we’re not in Frankfurt, it’s not 2001 and we’re not even covering the 2002 7-Series. That’s a bit of a shame. Still, the parallels between the 2002 BMW 745i and the all-new 2023 BMW 7-Series are strong enough to hang a cable car from. Twenty years since the infamous Bangle Butt broke cover, an all-new 7-Series is here with controversial styling and enough tech to make your head spin....

Last week, the Changli was doing just great! David was by for a visit, and my kid Otto and David and I drove that little 1.1 horsepower Chinese electron-burner all over town. Zero problems, just good, honest Changli fun. I was in Detroit for a week, and when I got back and wanted to take the old ‘Li out, I was met with a pretty basic problem: It didn’t want to move....

Backbone of economic growth Many researchers consider the immigrant community in America to be the supporting pillar of sustained economic growth. In a research paper published in April 2020 noted economists Chloe Smith and Pia Orrenius remarked that without migrants the US economy would struggle to grow. An ageing population would result in a decline in labor participation and productivity. Migrant workers fill this void. In their July 2020 policy brief, analysts from the National Foundation for American Policy similarly surmised that “…lower levels of legal immigrations carry significant consequences for Americans”....

Prior to the 1900s, camping was touted as a way for Americans to escape from the stresses of everyday living. In those days, campers had choices on how to enjoy the great outdoors depending on their preferences and means. The simplest form of camping was backpacking. Others went on horseback or hitched a wagon to horses. The earliest RVs were wagons converted into mobile homes. RVs have come a long way from the covered wagons of the late 1800s....

While at this year’s Detroit Auto Show just recently, I had our own Mercedes Streeter shoot pictures of the front ends of as many cars and SUVs/Trucks as possible, so I could undertake this experiment. To that end, I got 43 car front end pictures to average together, using the magic of math, and I think the results are pretty fascinating. Want to see? Of course you do. So here we go:...

I’ll clarify right off the bat that this article may violate a few fundamental rules we try to live up to here at The Autopian. We have something called the Double E Rule, for example, which means that everything we run should include elements that are both educational and entertaining. It’s a good rule, but I’ll be honest, I’m not sure if I’m going to meet it this time, because all I want to do right now is complain about this fucking car....

So let’s settle up yesterday, and then we’ll take a look at them: No surprise there. That Accord is really nice, and really cheap. And in fact, it looks like the ad is down already. Also no surprise. So, onward. Today we have a couple of Fords built to carry stuff. One is built to carry people, and the other is for, well, pretty much anything else. It’s a bit of an apples and oranges comparison, but once again, they’re what caught my eye today, so we’ll just roll with it....

In case you’re somehow unaware of the tragedy about which I now speak, here’s an example of a car with bumper-mounted indicators: Pretty straightforward, right? All the normal taillight elements are in place, it’s just that some of them have been re-located down to the bottom floor, on the bumper. It’s not immediately clear why such a decision would be made, of course, because there are already parts of the taillights in the more expected location up on the beltline of the car, too....

You all weren’t shy about expressing your distaste for Friday’s projects, that’s for sure. But let’s see how the voting turned out: Yeah, I think that’s the way to go. I see where the builder was trying to go with the fake Bugatti, but it’s just not right. The wood-bodied Beetle is at least an original design, and pretty far along, and I still think the wood is meant to be used as a mold for fiberglass, which would let you re-make body panels as needed....
