    When do you think you will buy a 100% pure electric vehicle?

    Depending on what reliability scores you're looking at, most issues are usually related to infotainment features. That's not to say customers don't care about that stuff, but customers usually won't judge that as harshly as a powertrain issue. And early adopters are also more accepting of...

    *** Official #7 IOWA STATE vs #16 Texas Tech Game(Day) Thread ***

    I haven't watched a game yet to form my own opinion on the court. But if you don't think there will be any change, just look at football fields. Grass, then astroturf, then artificial turf, and now field turf. All we can say for sure is that things will change. ETA shoe companies will change...

    Who would you rather face tomorrow?

    I only just voted, with ASU up 10 and 2:30 to play. But I'll take ASU. Like others have said, the scouting reports are fresh and they will have in the back of their minds that even if they play a really good half they could lose by 20. If we can get an early run, make it a double-digit game in...

    Batemon & Toure

    From a playing time perspective, with Tamin graduating there are plenty of minutes available for them both next year. Hopefully they were caught up by The Magic enough this year to be willing to take the "pay cut" that other schools will put in front of them.

    When do you think you will buy a 100% pure electric vehicle?

    Who has been saying there aren't limitations? Of course there are limitations, and there are people for whom EVs don't make sense. That's ALWAYS been part of the discussion. But you come in guns-a-blazing that all EVs need to sent to the scrap yard and anyone who buys one is an idiot. And then...

    *** Official Arizona State vs #6 IOWA STATE Game(Day) Thread ***

    Bateman is great when he's on, but when he misses he's as far off as Toure. Don't get me wrong, his percentage is better and he is a bigger threat to drive, but he'll have 4 or 5 UGLY misses before hitting 4 of his next 5. I've been most disappointed by Toure's lack of driving. He's got the...

    When do you think you will buy a 100% pure electric vehicle?

    Part of the problem with the 6.0 and later Powerstrokes is people got accustomed to swapping big injectors and fuel pumps and aggressive tunes without having to upgrade engine hardware. The newer Powerstrokes are less tolerant to that. If you're stock you're probably going to be fine.

    Buying NCAA Tourney Tickets

    No idea, just figuring ISU is likely to be moved far away from Iowa. And it would be our luck to put us in the Pacific time zone when 3 recent, poor performances were all out this way.

    Buying NCAA Tourney Tickets

    I have no idea. For me it will depend a bit on game times too because I'm trying to avoid spending money on a hotel. I'm not poor but I'm broke and cheap.

    Buying NCAA Tourney Tickets

    With today's result I see a chance that ISU gets put in Portland for the first round. That's less than a 4 hour drive for me. For those who have gone, what's the best way to buy NCAA Tourney tickets? Scalp with cash outside the venue? Ticketmaster resale? Other? My biggest concern is getting...

    Ive read that Tool might do a residency at The Sphere. That venue seems perfectly made for them.

    Scoring Droughts

    We are also tied for the best home court advantage, so even being "good" on the road would put us high on the home/road disparity ranking. I see this as three tiers of road teams - UA/UH, TT/ISU/BYU, KU/BU. We're at the top of that second tier overall.

    You would think we'd be more comfortable against traps, given how often we must practice it ourselves. Everybody just looked checked out the last 10 minutes.
