a physical button on the floor under the gas pedal
I had an E30 BMW with one of those. Push the button and the automatic transmission would immediately downshift, and the engine would spin up in a hurry. Spaz mode was fun.
New Zealand doesn’t exist!
Power and fuel economy are not the only two variables. Emissions are the biggest thing that comes to mind: your new high-performance remap might put your car outside of the emissions limits for your market.
Some aggressive remaps can also adversely affect how the car drives in normal use. Think rough idle, or jerky acceleration. The vast majority of drivers do not want that.
Assuming I’m still in good health, I want to go on some long bicycle tours. Like weeks or months long. Maybe start with the GAP/C&O Canal as a warm-up. Then La Route Verte. After hitting a few other sections of the US and Canada I would move across the pond to the UK, Ireland, and western Europe.
If I can find a riding partner who is open to dirt then I would really love to do the GDMBR. There are lots of shorter trails that would be fun warm-up trips, too. Unfortunately, I have yet to meet anyone IRL who is crazy enough to do multi-day off-road trips with me.
One exists, but the mod is AWOL and the community needs some love. If you (or anyone else here in the comments) wants to take it over and bring it back to life, let me know.

Consider lunch at Piroshky Piroshky while you’re over there.
I’m into it. Let’s go right down the whole Cascade range.
I would have been happy either embracing a native name or removing the Confederate’s name. That this is an opportunity to do both at once is extra sweet.
That looks marvelous! Nice trip, and nice shot. Did you try any fishing?
This whole post is gold, both the owls and non-owls. Those two people do look like they’re living the dream, too! I’m reconsidering my life goals right now.
Hillary lost because she didn’t do enough to incentivize people to vote for her.
Hilary got more than enough votes. She received 2.9M more votes than Trump. Her problem was that her support was much too concentrated in a small number of states. The Electoral College math punishes candidates in that situation.
The whole picture screams “autumn” to me. Especially the big orange eyes.
Boo. The babylon bee is MAGA pandering trying to pass as humor.
You cannot run through a campsite. You can only ran through it.
Because it’s past tents.
