Dont worry about rail....this admin is going to need rail to move the 6 million “illegals”, to their camps deportation centers. And when other countries refuse to accept these folks, perhaps these captured, demonized folks can be employed at the camps to do things, perhaps for very little food, but free showers.

I’m sadly limited in my track experience. The only car driven semi-aggressively on a track was a Saab 92x (WRX) with a decent bit of modifications pushing something like 275 hp at the wheels during an open track day at Lime Rock back when that was all very different. And I’m not embarrassed to admit that it felt like…

If you have to have a mechanism built into the door for manual release anyway, why the hell not just have the door handle use that to open in the first place instead of connecting to an electrical system?

The tiny tracker’s rise to prominence seems like a missed opportunity for airlines. Major carriers could have designed their own in-house GPS bag tracking system and charged passengers for the privilege of using it.

I used to live near Scottsboro, Alabama. They are very proud of this place called Unclaimed Baggage, where they buy lost luggage and sell all the stuff they find. In general, it was a great place to get stuff like Bose QC headsets and iPads and nice clothes fairly inexpensively.

Going to say the same thing. 25 thousand rolls of duct tape is BS. Even 10K rolls is BS. I cannot imagine the time it would take to unroll 10K rolls....At best, 3 mins per roll, so 30000 mins, or 20 days going at 24/7 for just 10K. 

I mean, he might want to secretly murder people.

There should be one handle per door, half pull - electronic, full pull mechanical.

No, he just doesn’t care if he does.

Electric door latches aren’t just a Tesla problem. I guess nobody remembers this story from back in 2015?

It’s painfully obvious how Trump won a second time.

The most common length of a roll of duct tape is 54m (60 yards), 180 feet. 25,001 rolls would be 4,500,180 feet or, 850 miles of duct tape.

“Dad?”

I’ve only ridden in a Tesla once, in the back seat of an Uber. Besides it being uncomfortable with no room under the seat for my toes, I couldn’t figure out how to open the door from the inside. How did anybody not notice this might be a problem?

Do they also go out of their way to hide the manual release and make it blend into the rest of the interior with not so much as a sticker or embossed image indicating what/where it is?

“something that most owners, let alone a passenger in a panic, aren’t likely to have.”

“most Teslas come with manual release levers.” That’s a scary thought. How is it that carmakers need to have glow-in-the-dark emergency release handles for trunks, but not something similarly for electrically controlled door handles?

My 992 has electronic door handles. If the power fails, guess how you open them? The same way you open them when the power is on. Same lever. It just uses the mechanical latch when there isn’t power. If Teslas were well-designed they would work the same way, but Teslas are low-end garbage.

Impossible. Elon invented the electric car, and certainly electronic door latches.

Thank God Tesla came along to save us from the horrors of manual door handles. If not for their work, imagine the terrors we would be forced to endure.
