“So am I the only one that’s tired of Tesla?”

The Tesla haters are easily as annoying. The love/hate for Tesla seems to exceed Apple, which I didn’t think was possible. It’s a car, some parts are really cool, some parts are really awful, but it’s still just a car. Unless Elon banged your wife, stop the hate and try being objective (not saying that directly to…

Just finished my build last month: what this project might have looked like 20 years ago. Still gotta get those lawnmowers though.

So all the people giving shit to the driver saying she was on her cellphone instead of paying attention need to re-aim their pitchforks at Uber corporate for giving her an additional responsibility that inherently makes her take attention off the road.

very first post is victim blaming. good fucking job.

thousands of people work as various types of safety watches, the job is literally to do nothing but watch and intervene on the rare case that something occurs.

Ascksuallaiy, any jumping car takes a ballistic trajectory, making it a space craft in a low-altitude sub-orbital flight.

Let’s see, nada says a little under $10k for stock. But, he’s added a lot of stuff, blower, big bolt-on spoiler, aftermarket exhaust...I’d be willing to play ball around $5,000.

Wow, that’s alotta money for a 90k mile bimmer with a Walmart subwoofer in the trunk...

Of the many MVC patients I have seen come into the E.R. when I have been working down there only one or two were ejection victims, they sadly had expired on the way in though. Most ejected drivers and passengers in the collisions did not need to go to the hospital though, they got a slightly different van ride. Wear…

Anyone who’s worked service knows there’s a such thing as a locked door. If a restaurant, still filled with people, is so pressed at the thought of additional people entering for any reason, why not have a host posted at the door to guide patrons out and refuse new entries?

I mean, the story says they were told multiple times the place was closed and need to leave, also that they entered a half hour after closing even. The whole situation could have been handled better and the off-duty cop didn’t need to put his hands on anyone. Although, the ladies should have listened to management…

Why not just allow you to lease the car for the first 2 years? They you can purchase it. Then they’d retain legal ownership of the car during that probationary period.

The restaurant says they were closed, but the women say the restaurant was open because people were still dining. Anyone who’s worked service knows a closed restaurant often has people in it well beyond the official closing time, and while the public may still be inside, no one new gets to come in.

I’m not a big fan of asset forfeiture laws because of the abuses we have seen, but I could certainly get behind a narrowly applied one in these cases. Get caught doing donuts in an empty parking lot - maybe get a ticket. Get caught flagrantly stopping traffic and causing public disruption for your own fun - lose your…

Just take away the right to drive for 3-4 years. That would be a world ender for most of them.

I understand why it can be tempting to feel that way, but current history provides us with a huge example to the contrary: gay rights.

The way I looked at it, the $35k model without rebates was a decent buy for 220 miles. Having a Model S 75 with 250 miles range is not bad. But we took delivery of our Model 3 earlier this month, and with 310 miles of range was great. And yes, I’m paying $49k instead of $35k. But with the $7500 IRS Rebate + $3500 from …
