Those weight ratings are just suggestions.

What we need to know is what a 2WD F150 Limited gets for gas mileage at 150 mph

Nah, it looks pretty fantastic from the Rear 3/4 too.

Kinda agree, the rear is my favourite part of the car to be honest but the lights are terrible back there. Anything that avoids seeing those loving headlights and that comically small Bugatti grille. It's still no stunner compared to a lot of stuff that came before, during and after though.

One has to involve calculus into the equation.

It will get lighter as it burns fuel. At the same time there will be less downforce on the rear end.

As a bonus, if you're doing 150mph with 2500lb of fuel in the back, you probably won't suffer for more than a few seconds in a wreck, nor if the DOT gets ahold of you. They would probably just do a roadside execution at that point.

How much of the body panel and interior do you need to sell to get a Model X down to ~$500 in value? I have.... Ideas.

Clearly you need to develop an in-motion refuelling nozzle. Planes can do it, how hard can it be?

BMW's done it when they set their world record drift a ways back.

I'm not sure if germans engineering a solution proves it's possible or not though.

luv 2 get custom titles from a forum that goes into revolt when its told to stop using a bad word.
It’s claimed that an Audi A6 was fitted with a dry-break refueling system that allowed it to pull up behind a specially outfitted transit van for a Lands End-John O’Groats run. There’s a good thread about it at Pistonheads but no ones sure if it’s all bollocks or not.

It lifts the back to make the sealed underbody work like a giant diffusor, with the frontwing sealing of the edges of the floor to get a propper ground effect.

It's basically a Formula 1 car

Interestingly the red bungee cords changed position and now go from the pillars down to below the bumper. I assume trying to tame some vibration or something.
