I can’t think of an instance where Tesla insulted other automotive manufactures. The entire goal from the get-go from Musk was to make EV transportation a viable thing. I had mentioned I own a Volt. The inspiration for that car came from Bob Lutz at GM after he saw a Tesla Roadster.

I saw that video and came away with the impression that they were two grouchy old men who prefaced the review by the barely hid disdain they had for Tesla and their products. The car they were looking at was a pre-production model so yeah... of course there will be funny bits and pieces. In fact I was invited by GM…

As someone who works in Silicon Valley I can tell you probably don’t really know a great deal of why things work the way they do here.

Tesla gets to have a little bit more wiggle room-again because they were first to market- AND they have also been ingenious at branding themselves as the automotive equivalent of Apple.

The thing is that the Model 3 has barely started production. The old adage that one should never buy the first model year of any new car I think holds especially true for this car too. So yes- there are some initial issues with the cars but those will get ironed out in due time. The Model S also had some early…

My take is that since Trump probably feels bolstered after his own party made the claim of “no collusion” he now feels that he can go all-out and fire the rest of his staff whom had any kind of disagreement with him.

I was pulled over on my bicycle in a very quite urban neighborhood for slowing down for but not stopping at a stop sign. Yes- I was technically in the wrong but ultimately that incident cost me almost $350. I distinctly recall it because I was laid off the next day from my job. Seeing as I suddenly had a lot of free…

Its not even good redneck entertainment. I always felt that it was more or less a kind of bastard stepchild with limited funds and little if any original programming.

Give em’ a year or two to depreciate. You can for example buy a 3-4 year old Volt for under 10k now even though they were 40k new.

They are the only company making anything like this at any kind of scale. Meanwhile all of the obnoxious hoity-toity luxury carmakers only have concepts and promises of having something in a few years. Something tells me that if making electric cars was easy the other automakers would’ve had something out years ago.

I think its time GM find another Caddy CEO. He’s had several years to fulfill a promise of elevating the brand and yet it is STILL where its been for years, which is that the cars are competent enough, they aren’t bad, but they are NOT taking chances. They need to find someone who is willing to do this because making…

I kind of don’t care. CMT is sort of a shitty cable network anyway.

Actually I thought it was pretty awful

This is about the laziest response I’ve ever seen. The answer is right in front of his eyes: Make cars that people want to buy! As in- build the concept cars that people oooh and ahh over! Wasn’t it a clue when a Cadillac concept showed up in a TV show a year or so ago and dealers were swamped with folks who thought…

This angers me on many levels, having seen similar things happen to my Grandad and Grandmother.

It looks like A big turd on wheels

will the baby drive the car?

Can I fart in the seats?

I’m 40 years old and never even been on a 747. I believe all of the 747's here in the US are now doing cargo delivery. From what I heard they will still be made but only to haul crap back and forth. The killer of the 747 is another of Boeing’s own planes: the 777X , which hauls 80% of the people a 747 will and only…

I watched a show where a 747 owned by British Airways was undergoing a required 5-year inspection. That meant they pretty much stripped the plane all the way down to its frame and the engines were totally stripped too. Everything was meticulously scanned and scrutinized. The planes themselves would be used for 25…
