1. Provide correct information

   I just read Zac Palmer's blog on the Mercedes steering trick.
   He keeps referring to toe out.
   I believe he is talking camber.
   
   Toe in/out is the front of the tire vs the rear of the tire. Wider at the front is toe out, narrower at the front is toe in.
   Camber is leaning in/out at the top, And yes, most race cars run negative camber (in at the top) to help the car corner more stable. When you lean on the front tire in a turn, especially on a banked track like in NASCAR, you gain camber, and you don't want to gain too much. And, negative camber will make the tire wear more on the inside edge, and run hotter in that area as well.
   Zero camber on the straights would help the entire tread to contact the track, and allow it to cool off.

   I have no idea how you could adjust the tie rods at speed to change the toe.

   With a movable suspension part, you could, however, change camber.

2. Just a Thank You

   I was looking at KIA's new vehicle but w everything I read was convoluted with a bunch of overstated opinions. Reading your article, 2021 Kia Seltos First Drive | The Soul-ful CUV, was refreshing. Your writer got straight to the point. Most importantly, you gave me exactly what I needed....the differences between each model and their pricepoint. I am very appreciative that you don't write a bunch of fluff and give an honest review. Thanks a million!

3. Re-post car care advice

   For example, in winter, do a series about how best to wash a car during the winter, including top-rated necessary equipment from foaming washers, to applicators, to drying cloths: basically, lessons in winter car care. I vaguely recall that you ran such a series - maybe it was a link to another site - a couple of winters ago but I allow as how my memory might be faulty.

5. Suspected plagiarism

   Hi there, just wanted to bring to your attention an article that was recently posted on DriveTribe and received quite a bit of attention. However, there are more than a few profound similarities between the Drivetribe article and an article posted on Autoblog about a year ago. I’ll leave both links below, but it was quite alarming to see...

   Original article: https://www.autoblog.com/2018/11/16/irv-gordon-dies-volvo-p1800-mileage-record/?guccounter=1&guce_referrer=aHR0cHM6Ly93d3ctYXV0b2Jsb2ctY29tLmNkbi5hbXBwcm9qZWN0Lm9yZy92L3Mvd3d3LmF1dG9ibG9nLmNvbS9hbXAvMjAxOC8xMS8xNi9pcnYtZ29yZG9uLWRpZXMtdm9sdm8tcDE4MDAtbWlsZWFnZS1yZWNvcmQv&guce_referrer_sig=AQAAAIqgiF20d5JqfL3r2y41jpee5d_RCq3hIlomipUuhnOFVHLlRRbiV0oiu_HPLYeM-aYILKC4_zxaWny7gHJiz25IJHNmYIB9_6FjZ--_C_YOqzn5z-KCS8s_mnmqm8T5vfK4c-SNf_pjMTwwx7o3ktRBkjZ6C8fze5WGLTkVj_Zq

7. The crash rating color scales,some colors are indistinguishable from others.

   The colors in the crash rating scale are on a color scale that are hard to distinguish for those of us that are color blind. Try using dramaticaly different colors. Blue, Red, Yellow, Black, Pink, Dark Green. Avoid pale colors. for some of us, orange, yellow,rust are to close as an example. I cant read your charts. How about just a number rating system 1 -10 or something.

9. Make corrections

   For the 2010 Infiniti G37, the article states that all are RWD and all are available in manual transmissions. This is incorrect, the X and XS models are AWD and only come in automatic transmission, no manual transmission available.

12. On build & price many internal & external options should be checkboxes instead of exclusive of all other radio buttons.

    On build & price many internal & external options should be checkboxes instead of exclusive of all other radio buttons.
    For example a vehicle may have carpeted floor mats, cargo net, smoker's group, auto-dimming mirror, lighted glove box etc.
    All of these should be allowed at once (checkbox), not just at most 1 (radio button)

13. Ban "The Car Expert" please

    I've been coming to autoblog for a VERY long time and this guy has been nothing but a troll for YEARS and posts in almost all article inflammatory comments. I've mostly ignored it but it getting seriously annoying and it baffles me that nothing has been done for so long.

    Please review his comment history and you'll see he has never had anything worthwhile to share, only hate. You don't need users like this.

    "Tesla's Supercharger network runs at about 120kW per vehicle, which equates to about 75 minutes to fill a 90kWh battery to 100 percent."
    90kWh / 120 kW = 0.75 h, not 75 minutes. 075 hours = 45 minutes

19. Increasing Stringency in Emission & Fuel Efficiency Regulations to Boost the Automotive Turbocharger Market

    According to the market research report Automotive Turbocharger Market by Technology (VGT, Wastegate, Electric), Material (Cast Iron, Aluminum), Ice & Hybrid Vehicle, Fuel Type, Off-Highway (Agricultural, Construction, Locomotive), Aftermarket, and Region - Global Forecast to 2025, published by MarketsandMarkets™, China and India are among the top countries which are undergoing rapid transformation in terms of industrialization, infrastructure development, and manufacturing. Commercial vehicles run mostly on diesel, and the turbocharger is a standard fitment in medium and heavy diesel vehicles.
    The automotive turbocharger market, by value, is estimated to be USD 16.87 billion in 2018 and is projected to reach USD 31.61 billion by 2025, at a CAGR of 9.39% from 2018 to 2025.
    Speak to analyst
    https://www.marketsandmarkets.com/speaktoanalystNew.asp?id=919
    Globally, the automotive industry is driven by legislation and consumer demands to reduce emissions and increase fuel efficiency. With the increase in fuel prices, the end users prefer vehicles with higher fuel efficiency. The regulatory bodies around the world are also demanding better fuel economy, which would ultimately result in lower emissions from the vehicles. This has encouraged the OEMs to develop new technologies and use lightweight materials and advanced engine designs that promise fuel-efficiency, along with the reduction in emissions. Engine downsizing is an efficient way of enhancing indicated fuel conversion efficiency (IFCE) and the lowering of CO2 and NOx emissions. A downsized engine with a turbocharger can generate more power and more efficiency than a naturally aspirated engine. Engine downsizing has resulted in an increase in fuel economy. The trend of engine downsizing is expected to continue its growth rate, and it is driving the market for automotive turbocharger.
    Request for Customization:
    https://www.marketsandmarkets.com/requestCustomizationNew.asp?id=919
    The turbocharger technologies considered are VGT/VNT, wastegate, and electric turbocharger, which can enhance the fuel efficiency and achieve better torque and power generation with less emission. According to MarketsandMarkets analysis, in Europe and North America, majority of the passenger cars are equipped with VGT/VNT turbochargers. However, in Asia wastegate turbocharger is widely used due to its cost advantage. VGT turbocharger is expensive than wastegate turbocharger. Turbocharger manufacturers and its component suppliers can target such region where VGT technology is in growing trend. The electric turbocharger is a new technology and can be operational only with 48-volt architecture. Cars based on 48-volt architecture are expected to get commercialized by 2020 as per MarketsandMarkets analysis.

    Hi George. We will be working to make the updates suggested but it will be several weeks before we can complete the work. We’re shooting for mid July. Sorry it’s going to take so long but we have a few high priority and time-consuming projects to address.
