    Well sure, that’s why I couched it with “I would expect.” My guess is that most cars, even the Peel P50, have enough mass to surface area ratio to reach 420mph. But I haven’t done the math.

      Pretty sure I’ve never seen anyone else use the phrase “couched it” in this context. Well done.

      I wasn’t sure myself, so I just asked ChatGPT. It gave me a bunch of math that I don’t understand and said the terminal velocity for an average car being pushed out of an airplane is 522 km/h (325 mph). I have no idea if that is right or not. LOL.

        Why post this then? Anyone could do the same thing (and probably get different results). You added nothing except probably misinformation. Write comments yourself, and do enough research to figure it out yourself, or don’t. Don’t involve AI slop. We’ve got enough people we don’t need to fill the space with junk.

          I did write the comment myself. The rest of us are having a fun and casual conversation. Maybe climb down off that soapbox for a minute and have some yourself.

            I’m never going to not tell people to stop including bullshit AI generated stuff they can’t be bothered to double-check themselves. Best case, your wasting everyone’s time reading it. Worst case is much worse.
