But they still take up room on the console where a shifter like this doesn’t even need to be. Put it on the dash like the dodges at least. I just hate console shifters in general though. I’d rather have a column shifter and more space for junk in the console 😄

Nooooooo. Those rotary shifters are awesome. They take up almost zero space in the front and I’ve never had an issue in multiple Ford rentals. When I need a big SUV rental, the Expedition is my go to and the dial shifter is literally part of that. The GM buttons are much more annoying to get used to, which puts the…

Agreed. Completely irrelevant in the moment.

Whether that’s yearly odometer checks, an upfront fee a-la gas guzzler taxes, or adding a tax to every address there’s at least one EV registered to, they’ve gotta pay too.

Drivers in the machines capable of causing death bear a greater responsibly to drive carefully.  They misbehave, they hurt others.

Haven’t read the article, but I’m gonna automatically assume that the already known fact of the high ass hood line is the root cause of all of this...

Wait... why is this Tesla’s fault?  It seems the respective brands can’t maintain their planned timelines for some reason.  None of them--at least in the article--are blaming Tesla for it.

You’re thinking way too hard. Musk isn’t playing 3D chess. He got mad at someone telling him no and fired her entire department as a warning to others to never say no to him.

Escalate the situation is Step 1 in the How to Cop manual, it seems.

Yeah... I don’t think I’d be attempting to touch the apex predator of the ocean.  Too bad the Orca didn’t retaliate or see him as a snack.

My take - Arrest the officer for filing a false report and immediately fire him.

My understanding is that he was following the instructions that tournament gave players.

That’s it? All I see is a car calming driving in a drive they were told to use. No high speed chase, running over someone, etc...

In what way did Tesla have a huge headstart on the electric pick up market?  The came to market after Ford, after Rivian, and after GM.

The Supercharging network ain’t going anywhere any time soon. While yes, I think it was incredibly foolish for the team to be let go, but the headstart the network has over all other charging in the US, it’s ridiculous.

Tesla has a way longer runway than Fisker ever did. Plus, Tesla (or it’s assets) would likely get gobbled up by a competitor on their way down.

To be a tiny bit fair, the lower end cars—especially the ones eligible for the tax incentives—are super competitive price offerings for a lot of gas alternatives or hybrid cars. If you are swinging for an environmental daily driver, a Model 3 or Y ain’t exactly a bad choice.
