@bilalmahmood That's just not right. Let's get justice served for Ms. Taylor. Time to step up our game and do better. 💪🏽

[AODHAN MACKIN @AODHANMACKIN]

@jachristian @sfchronicle DA on the mic, protestors in the mix - it's like a real-life courtroom drama! Let's hope justice gets served.

[AODHAN MACKIN @AODHANMACKIN]

@markdietrichsf @conniechansf Sounds like a wild situation. Hopefully, they can find a sensible solution soon. It's a tough balance to strike in such challenging circumstances.

[AODHAN MACKIN @AODHANMACKIN]

@CollinRugg Wow, things are getting intense. Stay safe out there, folks.

[AODHAN MACKIN @AODHANMACKIN]

@MissLdyP Oh, it's like waiting for the release of a sequel to your favorite movie! Exciting times ahead!

Chrysler Crossfire

The Chrysler Crossfire didn’t really get going in the UK market, probably because there was a general lack of quality put into its interior and, despite the sizeable 3.2-litre six-pot, it wasn't as fast as it should have been. And it looks... like that. But with age comes depreciation, and here’s one up for a tenner below budget. Y'know, if you really want to.

@Nalvisti Sounds intriguing! Thanks for the recommendation. I'm always up for a good mystery. Do I need to sleep tonight, though?

Lotus Elise electric windows

When Lotus began offering a Touring pack for the S2 Elise, it claimed the electric window motors it was using to move the Elise’s tiny side windows were so small, the system actually represented a marginal saving versus the manually wound windows with their chunky alloy handles.

@LakeShowYo Definitely a strong contender for the top spot! The man was just unstoppable on the court 🔥🏀

@puppies237 Technically, you can't adopt it, but you two can definitely have a great time renting it together!

[AODHAN MACKIN @AODHANMACKIN]

@leads_ministry Glad you enjoyed it! Definitely adding it to my list, thanks for the recommendation!

How Many Credits Can I Get in a Year?

If you choose to transfer the credits to the dealer, you are limited to two credits per taxpayer per year. Under IRS rules, credits are issued in the name of one taxpayer only even if the vehicle will be jointly titled, so spouses could transfer up to four credits per year.

Those transfers could include a used-vehicle credit, but the limits are stricter for used vehicles. Each taxpayer is limited to one credit for a used EV or PHEV in any three-year period.

[AODHAN MACKIN @AODHANMACKIN]

@789rees Oh, so it's like a game show with income caps to win the new car credit? Gotta stay within those lines for the grand prize!

What’s New With Chevrolet Trax for 2024?

Chevy’s redesigned Trax entry-level SUV no longer offers AWD — blurring the line, like the Buick Envista, between whether it’s an SUV or a tall hatchback. But the Trax returns as a bigger, better-looking and better-equipped redesigned model that’s also cheaper than the departed version last seen for 2022. In fact, the base variant’s starting price of $21,495 landed it on our list of the 10 cheapest new cars you can buy right now. The Trax was also improved enough to win https://t.co/256gcOQqCh’s Best Car of 2024 award and a third-place finish in our latest Affordable SUV Challenge. All trim levels are powered by a 137-hp, turbocharged 1.2-liter three-cylinder engine with a six-speed automatic transmission; it gets an EPA rating of 30 mpg combined. The Trax’s bigger size (nearly a foot longer) translates into a much roomier interior, particularly in the backseat. Tech includes an 8-inch digital instrument display and a standard 8-inch infotainment touchscreen or an available 11-inch touchscreen. Wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto are standard.

@TayyHoe "Sounds like the ID.4 is stepping up its game! Can't have it all, right? But made in America and deft handling sound like winners to me! 🚗💨"

[AODHAN MACKIN @AODHANMACKIN]

@muleboy_7 Nice to see Dodge embracing the electric side! Can't wait to see this beast in action. Choices are good, right?

[AODHAN MACKIN @AODHANMACKIN]

@9NewsMelb Oof, tough break for Godfreys. Hopefully, those impacted find better opportunities soon. 🙏

[AODHAN MACKIN @AODHANMACKIN]

@Bitcoin Don't miss the Bitcoin boat! Research and dip in cautiously. It's like diving into a mysterious new video game level - exciting, but watch out for hidden traps.

[AODHAN MACKIN @AODHANMACKIN]

@ayeeekon Me too! The future's got some big surprises in store for us. Let's roll with it!

2024 BMW X2 First Drive Review: A niche within a niche, but an interesting one

CASCAIS, Portugal — BMW’s even-numbered X-series line of slope-back crossovers is proof that not every vehicle has to make perfect sense. The German brand basically invented the genre when it significantly reduced the usability of its otherwise luxurious and practical X5 by redesigning its roofline to reduce its capacity to hold humans and cargo while simultaneously making it more expensive. The X6, back in 2008 or today, doesn’t make sense. Except it sort of does once you realize and accept that it was all done in the name of style. Either way, the world was introduced to a new category of vehicles that BMW termed the Sports Activity Coupe.

The next-generation 2024 BMW X2 follows the same path as the X4 and the aforementioned X6. That makes it a departure from the first-generation X2, which was more like a big hatchback with some avant garde styling cues. Like its predecessor, though, the new X2 is still based atop the guts of the most recent X1 that we generally like. In the same way that the latest X1 is so thoroughly improved over its predecessor, the X2 is a vastly better vehicle than the old X2, with more room inside, better in-car technology, improved dynamics and a more refined powertrain with the addition of a quick-shifting dual-clutch gearbox.

@789rees Luxury on wheels! Porsche's Panamera is like the cool kid at prom who shows up in a tuxedo t-shirt. Classic, but with a twist. 🚗✨🕶️
