I can't wait for more cars companies named after scientists! Maybe someday I'll be able to get a car from... Hertz?

- bliti 11y agoI'd love to buy their performance model: The 8 Gigahertz turbo. Sorry, I had to.
- germanier 11y agoUnlikely, unless the car rental company of the same name starts producing their own models.
- ccvannorman 11y agoNow I'm picturing the latest in automobile technology: the Benjabug Franklin! It designs ambitious hats, runs off of lightning, and modifies the timezone it's in dynamically for +/- hours of fun!
- volaski 11y agogood one!
- volaski 11y agoI have no idea why this got downvoted. Maybe you didn't get the joke?
- tsuraan 11y agoOne thing that's likely to attract downvotes are comments to the tune of "+1", "I agree", or in this case, "good one!". The sentiment can be expressed with the little up-arrow next to the comment you like, and then it doesn't clutter up the thread. HN tries to keep a high signal to noise ratio, and part of that is greying out comments that really don't add anything. FWIW, I didn't downvote you, but that's probably the reason that people did.
- supergreg 11y agoWhat about meta clutter like yours, or mine?
- samstave 11y agoWell you can rent them from Hertz! But also - there is already a faraday company which makes electric bikes in San Francisco.
