    Matt is getting awfully specific about some of the people there without saying their names. 😂😂 Great podcast as always!

      Yeah.. I have no idea who the CEO for Lyft, Uber or Hertz is but it would take all of 3 seconds to get all 3 names.. He may as well have said he had seen a big, bald actor famous for tuna sandwiches and family with how under the radar he was.. Honestly shocked they uploaded it..

    1:13:50 This is what being a true enthuisast is right here. I feel like Zach has had the revelation that I and many others have when you get older, and also ascend to driving more expesive and faster vehicles; you can only go so fast. You start to savor the experience and start to dissect how the machine actually performs relative to what it was designed to do. I learned that eiphany the day I got smoked on a back road by an ND Miata whilst driving my RS3.

    We've had Wing - Drone delivery here in the Australian Capital Territory, trialling from 2017 and permanent setup since 2019. Not surprisingly Coffee and fast food are the most popular here too.
    Within the trial period there was anecdotally lots of residents complaining, yet officially very few complaints made.

    • @xprettylightsx

    Reg. 550/575, I seem to recall Chris Harris calling the 575 sans Fiorano pack "Dogsh*t" on his Whiskey Files thingy he did on Instagram.
    I'd get a 550 looks alone and you can't seem to go wrong with em considering they were all manuals. Service intervals are also shorter than 456 because of (I think) the hydraulic lifters which don't require valve adjustments like the 456. If the back seat isn't as big a priority (456 is comfortable but not exactly adult sized like the FF, still), go with a 550. Modern Daytona imo
    Harry Metcalfe called it "an everyday Ferrari" and if he required one of those, he'd seek no further....sounds pretty well recommended to me!
    Then again I dunno dogsh*t, just read a lot of reviews, dream a lot so take that with a big, big dash of salt.
    They seem to be quiet on a stock exhaust (if you're interested in V12 noises) and there's funny little Ferrari build quality things like headlight condensation that you wouldn't find on something like, say, an R129 of the same era.
    Doesn't make me want one less though.

  • @nahknahk
    @nahknahk 2 роки тому +6

    The bike company he's talking about is VanMoof. They are a good way to spot techbros around the city. Mostly because they don't know how to ride and don't treat slower manual bikes and pedestrians with any regard for safety - at least around where I live, and they are everywhere here now like Teslas.
    The big problem is they ride in bike lanes but are so much faster than normal bikes and they never seem to use ettiquette when passing (bell, "on your left", etc). The fact this dude wants these to be faster without a license is insane to me.

    Hiya, I happen to live in Ireland and supply a drone delivery company, I'm guessing the one Matt talks about couse I don't know any other. I saw the drone in action, and I admit they are not as noisy as other, smaller drones and less noisy as you would think. Manageable ona day2day basis.

    I think a car snorkel is actually to pull clean air from above the car and dirt kicked up into the front grille or engine bay. If they were for water they would have to be air tight which indont believe they are.

    The gas prices he's mentioning seem to be a little off... Currently here in Germany gas is about 2 Euro per liter (which is about 7.50 USD/GALLON. that is for 95 OCTANE, we don't have 87 OCTANE here, 95 is the base octane. About a year ago we were about 30-40 percent cheaper than where we sit now. I just filled my BMW 3 series and it cost just about 100 Euro, (at this point in time the Euro is on par with the US Dollar)

    Yes for car enthusiasts and urbanists getting along! 👏 I'd add public transit and rail heads to that. The people pushing endless petroleum and ever more highway lane miles are not the friend of the car enthusiast, they want your roads to lack investment while they're clogged with as many trucks and untrained monkeys as they can stuff onto them, the beautiful drive through the beautiful place is a waste of their time.

    If you've ever been exposed to tech/VC bros it's totally unsurprising to learn they think they can fix transpo/mobility with tech. The only fix is people-focused (as explicitly opposed to car-focused) infrastructure. This requires political will/buy-in though, so good luck with that.
