Was she a public facing public servant when she tweeted those? Because if not, she was just someone with an opinion. If you don’t want people with opinions being in charge, then you’ll have a hard time finding anyone qualified.

Then it’s a good thing those tweets were from before she is appointed.

Well, yeah. Of course Musk thinks an eminently qualified woman with more experience, education, and expertise than him is a threat to Tesla.

Musk also revealed “Gigabier” at this event.

It’s a pretty clear safety issue. I’m not sure what the argument against would be. The front bumper on most lifted trucks are pretty much a safety issue already when they don’t meet the bumper of another vehicle but this takes it to another level. Also your looking up in the air and not the road from the drivers seat…

Moved house with it three times. Bought an obscene amount of IKEA furniture (some assembled). Loaded it with about 50 Palmer’s boxes (ok, that might be a slight exaggeration) and it didn’t make a peep. It’s amazing what this little thing can do with the rear seats folded.

You can’t properly tailgate, without a tailgate. Though that would be a rather nice second choice, I guess.

No doubt about that!

Maybe you should reach out to Xzibit and tell him about how poor you are and how everyone makes fun of your crappy car when you go tailgating.

Also, Jason, it must have been quite the breath of fresh air to have to write this article after the Rolls Royce. It strikes me as a bid crazy that two companies, from the same country, separated by less than 250 km could be so completely, utterly, different....

Eh, there's someone who shows up to the local British car day with a Silver Shadow convertible (sorry, "Drophead Coupe") and bring a full picnic setup with table and chairs and such,and look like they're having a wonderful time as well (and one that didn't justify a wankery press release).

<hot take>Eh, they lost me at Ace of Spades in the fridge. Nothing against the champagne house of Armand de Brignac but for someone who supposedly has training and access to anything that’s a tad basic and available to anyone. Even the higher end bottlings aren’t that hard to find and buy. It’s weird that the PR copy…

It’s the most expensive Pimp My Ride ever.

We should make it a contest! Like, whichever rich person commissions the most entertaining absurdity gets to be the last against the wall, come the revolution.

I kid.

But yeah, this is way better than other stuff. A good way to look at it, I think, is how many resources were consumed per unit of currency: not a lot,…

Truthfully, we should make it a requirement that rich people waste their money on shit like this.

Look, I get that this is absurd in its excess. It certainly is environmentally irresponsible.

And yet... I don’t hate rich people because they are rich. Of all the things the obscenely wealthy could waste money on, this is pretty low on the offensiveness scale.

Nice body, but it’s definitely a “butterface”, like every modern Rolls.

SPEAK NOT ILL OF THE CHANGLI!

Miata.
