What does Elon know about great humor?

Elon telling us how comedy works seems about as useful as a toddler telling us which Medicare plan one should use.

The new Prius gets about 60 MPG. Over 250,000 miles, assuming $4 a gallon, you’re saving $16,664.00 over a car that averages 30 MPG.

Musk is not a visionary. He’s a guy with a lot of Daddy Slavebucks’ money. He didn’t invent PayPal, or Tesla. 

This is false. He asked some people at NASA for some advice, they were not involved in making this thing.

Problem being that carbon fiber acts differently in compression that it does in tension. If the pressure was inside this thing, it might be a very different scenario.

I get a very distinct feeling that Stockton Rush sees himself as analogous to Elon Musk. I’d wager he thought that in a similar stroke of genius to inventing reuable rockets, he could drastically reduce the operational costs of luxury submersible businesses to make it “accessible” in the same way. The weight of the…

Yeah, but do you know much much trucks and cranes you can buy for the cost of a 5" thick custom made Carbon Fiber cylinder?

I find the whole thing very interesting. 

And yet, you clicked, and then clicked again to comment. Jalopnik thanks you for your support.

I know this will sound not nice and I do mean this sincerely.... but if you have any form of financial difficulty affording a vehicle then its probably not a great idea to buy it. Take care of your retirement fund, pay off debts if you have em’ and when the time and place is right, maybe revisit. You’ve also got to…

MPGe is stupid. Fix:
1) Switch to energy per distance. (ie liters/km, gallons/mi, kw/mi.)
2) Include an energy cost assumption. (already done.)
3) Annual Fuel Cost for 15k miles (already done.)

MPG is stupid and its been discussed forever. Just google it. Eliminating inefficient cars, trucks, vans, SUVs from the road is…

1st gear: MPGe has always been dumb as hell... It should have been in basically mile/kwh or miles/10 kwh, which at least punishes the heavy ass square vehicles like F150 lightning and the humvee electric, and can be converted into environmental impact relatively easily if needed...

You know what else looks good? A sky full of undiminished stars.

What do most of these have in common? They have CVT transmissions which IMHO sucks all of the joy out of driving. The Nissans in particular because their CVTs tend to self destruct at around the 50k mark

It seems very much that small SUVs are disappointing. You think you’re getting an SUV, but you’re really getting a compromise machine. To make it seem like an SUV, they get rid of the sedan advantages like lower price and better gas mileage. It’s almost like people with any sense don’t buy tiny SUVs expecting them not…

Fuck that. These people are fucking shitheads who are eventually going to kill somebody because they leave on time, and either were speeding or running stop signs. How many people are going to die because of shit like this?

The NYPD can’t be bothered because it’s cops and cop family pulling this shit.

Snitching only applies to those whom you profess a certain degree of loyalty to whether they be part of an organization, friend or family. A complete stranger has no such obligations, if you’re a thief or an awful person in general, Ima Tattletale.
