McLaughlin develops two new vacuum excavators | Fuel Injection/Nozzle

I know. I assume the post is an attempted justification because the real reason can’t be mentioned.

The big question is can we retro fit these in older models? I have a 3 month old 2018 and would love these. I had a minor bumper incident in a really dark parking lot. Sensors would have been preferred over the camera.

As you can see by the slope of the curve, the previous owner drove this XJ quite a bit in the early years, but as time went on, the vehicle was driven less and less. This isn’t surprising, but it is nice to see that the vehicle has not sat for any extended period of time.

As for adding this I would say unless GM offers some update to the systems would be difficult to add. Much of this involves the computer and body control module.

Meanwhile, Deutz has unveiled its first off-highway hybrid drive. This system combines a 55kW TCD 2.9 diesel engine with a 55kW electric motor, and is said to open up potential for efficiency gains in drivetrain technology. The E-DEUTZ strategy combines its low-emission engines with electric drives and follows the firm’s 2017 acquisition of Torqeedo, a market leader and system solution specialist for integrated electric and hybrid drives for boats. The technology is now being developed for Deutz’s off-highway engine business, which is why it has developed the modular, scalable hybrid drive. Featuring the TCD 2.9 diesel engine and an electric motor, the combined system delivers 110kW. Its lithium-ion battery has a capacity of 40kWh at 400V. And Volvo Penta has set 2021 as its deadline to introduce electric power solutions. This forms part of the firm’s long-term strategy to become a driving force in sustainable power solutions. Volvo Penta is developing sophisticated hybrid and all-electric drivelines for both its marine and industrial segments by 2021.This follows the success of hybrid and all-electric technology introduced by the Volvo Group. “Volvo Penta is embracing the electric transformation and will be at the forefront in delivering compelling business cases to customers using this new technology,” said Björn Ingemanson, president of Volvo Penta. “We will take a full systems supplier approach, helping our customers in the transition to the new technology. This will happen application-by-application, on the basis that the business case for switching to electric will differ across our many customer segments. However, he also added, “This is the start of a long-term transition. Diesel and gasoline-powered primary drive systems will remain the most appropriate power source for many applications for years to come.”The firm has already developed prototype systems in-house. “Volvo Penta is already several years into its electrification journey,” said Johan Inden, chief technology officer. “We have spent this time building competencies, experience and establishing the technologies required to deliver a sustainable power solutions road map. The advanced engineering projects we are currently running, and the performance data received gives us confidence that we are on the right technology path to offer customers a compelling business case for electrification.”As part of this increased commitment, Volvo Penta has restructured its organisation to accelerate the switch towards electrified power and has committed to an ambitious ramping-up of its electrification investment program. An electromobility development-and-test laboratory has also been established at its Swedish headquarters.While the power outputs and applications of the initial electric systems are being kept confidential for the time being, the company has announced that both hybrid and all-electric solutions will be offered at the outset. Volvo Penta is already field testing early prototypes and system validation is under way.Petrol alternative Kohler says that its compact, single cylinder Command PRO EFI ECH440 benefits from closed-loop electronic fuel injection technology (EFI). The 10.4kW petrol engine is said to offer better fuel efficiency, reliability, and easier starting in harsh conditions. It is suited to use in compact power solutions. The Command PRO EFI ECH440 controls and manages the exhaust through the closed-loop system, extending the life of the engines. The starter is one of the key features of this model: the Command PRO EFI ECH440 starts like a car, with no choking. The closed-loop electronic fuel injection system is also said to be highly fuel-efficient. In addition, the EFI diagnostic software provides quick and easy troubleshooting to minimise downtime.

Now you’re telling me the car is going jam on the brakes, or yank the steering wheel every time it beeps? No GD way, I’d set fire to it and take the insurance check after Day 1.

This problem has been identified with the Chevrolet Silverado, as it is prone to a rusted out brake line that would cost buyers several hundreds of dollars a pop. The truck comes with some engine issues and mysterious clunking noises that comes from the powertrain.

“Get these awful poor people and their cheap/old cars off the roads and away from my precious children!!!”

Headed up a non-descript, small dune, I gave the truck just enough power to get to the top and as I got there it sounded like a gunshot went off and someone punched me in the side of the head.

I don’t mind the added safety systems if they are optional. Let me chose what I want or make them all part of a safety package. My main concerns with these systems is the complexity, repair costs, and added weight. Good drivers don’t need them but they make other drivers more lax because they no longer have to worry about skill of driving.

Sometimes when the car was in park and the parking brake wasn’t used, the gear would slip into neutral and start rolling.
