My wife’s car has this and, granted I see the enormous positives of having it, I’m not here to naysay. That being said, when this system triggers inappropriately, it is fucking infuriating. I’ve had this system go off when cars in turn lanes approach an intersection to make a right turn into my lane as I’m going…

Great pull.

Duh. In addition to The Witcher you can now play Carmageddon from inside your Tesla!

Waiting for Teslastans to say. “The Tesla is so smart it knows that’s a fake child. That is why it didn’t stop!”

“Charming and witty” - to a 13-year old boy? I mean, I know they’re famously a massive chunk of the new car buying market, but still.

This is painfully embarrassing bootlicking.

I don’t see Lucid, MB, or any of these car companies overtaking Tesla. Tesla has something that none of them have and none of them can never have. Elon.

I’m not going to run the numbers but I’m pretty sure they are still including the 100% drop in sales from the focus and the almost 90% drop from the fusion, both of which have decreases purely from end of production.  That’s going to skew the data quite a bit.  Once you trim the outliers I’m sure the sales drop is…

I think it’d be a more interesting thing to see what the percentage of sales were relative to total inventory of those models year over year. It’s one thing if the 47 Fusions sold in December 2021 were the last ones for sale. It’s another if Ford collectively has a thousand of them for sale across the country and…

I don’t really get 1st gear. Of course the number of car sales were down: Ford no longer makes the Fiesta or Fusion. If you remove both from the numbers (because they’re no longer being made and are just adding noise), Ford’s car sales are only down 14%. Seems like Ford’s cars did better than the Ecosport, Escape, or…

Neutral: Maybe it’s because you’re younger than I am, but the shuttle was a big fucking deal when I was a kid. The problem was that it lasted for much longer than it was intended. It should have been a stepping stone to engineer better space flight, but the entire space program pretty much took a nose dive in…

1st and 2nd gear, file that under no-shit-sherlock.

Heated seats should be standard on all electric cars, as they warm you up more efficiently than an electric heater blower.

Ford cars have always been bad :p

First and Second Gears:

Given the quality of GM components at this time and in this vehicle, I’m amazed that the dash has not fallen off, much less cracked.

Will scientists just make up their dang minds? First they say asbestos and cigarettes are okay, then they turn around and say they’re bad. First they say the Earth is cooling, then they reach a broad consensus for the past 30 years that it’s warming. What’s a guy to believe?

It appears from “Bradford Galt’s” post that the MAGA response took 1 hour and 5 minutes to appear.

They’re too busy putting people in jail for going over the speed limit.
