Both of my cars are green. I’ve got an 04 TL (6MT) in Deep Green Pearl, and my new-to-me (just picked it up this weekend) E36 in Fern Green

That looks just like Boston Green from the E36 generation of BMWs

Well this reinforces my decision to always buy used cars with a proven reliability record... also because I can’t afford anything new

Yet people will buy cars with premium gas all day long. For instance: My car may average 27mpg, but due to its requirement for premium, it’s effective cost/mile is on par with a 20mpg car. People, including me, are stupid when it comes to buying cars.

I would hesitate to say they have a comparative advantage in manufacturing, considering what was said on the call last night

That’s the beauty of engineering. Anything is possible

It’s because Jeepers are Creepers. Happy Halloween!

That’s the worst thing the CEO of any company could possibly be doing with their time and resources. Giving batteries away and re-allocating your employees’ time is not going to make you a dollar. If Tesla were a profitable company, it would be a different narrative, but Tesla is still not able to make money and is…

What I’ve been saying all along, and everybody called me a luddite and a loser who couldn’t get with the times. I demand an apology! Not to mention Elon needs to go to a shrink; I’m convinced the guy has some sort of mental delusion and false visions of grandeur.

If the owners really wanted to make a killing, I bet they could restore the house to look like the BB set and hire someone to give tours, complete with a ceramic pizza on the roof and replicas of the cars in the driveway. They could then use the profits to buy a nicer place without the nuisance. This is assuming that…

How do you like it in comparison to it’s older naturally aspirated cousin with 2 more cylinders, your 2005 TL?

From my understandings it is the interference like you mentioned. You can hack your i3 to add AM, but from the factory it’s not available on the iDrive interface

This smells like the CTS-V wagon of TV shows

Well then it’s quite unfortunate that my pants get tight anytime I see an E39

I actually don’t like Elon Musk, anybody who views him as a Demigod, Tesla, or anybody who owns one, and I never aspire to own an EV. I literally give 0 fucks

Diamler just dropped the mic and smug Elon could only respond with “Good”.

I’m curious to know how much that battery pack cost. FWIW, my car is at $0.148/mi for the fuel, maintenance, and repairs

Theoretically speaking, it has infinite more range than any Tesla ever did

oooo can I play?

This is my strategy with cars. Granted, I’m not rich either, but with the way the market has been lately, I can earn AT LEAST 3% on bond funds, and more on an S&P index fund. Plus, you have the money sitting aside for a rainy day, and that helps me sleep at night
