    My entire family lives in Metro Detroit and we have our who lives. My grand father worked for General Motors.

    A bunch of my aunts, uncles and cousins wouldn’t be able to tell you that Cadillac, Chevy, Buick and GMC are all owned by General Motors.  I’m always shocked.

    I have no clue how Wisconsin makes this list. This is the state where people merge on to highways at 15 mph and take 3 miles to get up to speed. The slowness of people in Wisconsin is beyond infuriating.

    I am sitting here shuddering at the smell that these cars have.  Every parents car I have ever been in has the same gag inducing spoiled milk smell in it, but the parents get nose blind to it.  It’s disgusting.

    Yea but none of those migrants were billionaires, so who cares?

    This is why I always question CR.  These Kia’s are known to have some pretty major engine issues... but they win at CR!

    When I drive around Detroit proper, paper tags and dealer plates are extremely prevalent, especially on junky cars where it makes absolutely no sense.  I’ve always wondered why this phenomena existed or how people were getting these plates... now I know!

    Sure, but if it runs the full 24 hrs AND tops the entire GTE field, that would be an INSANE achievement for this team.

    The Chipotle near me is the single worst reviewed restaurant I’ve ever seen on Google Reviews/Yelp/Etc.  They have a Chipotlane and it’s an absolute nightmare.  I’m not really sure what’s happening with Chipotle (and Qdoba for that fact), but their service at ALL of their locations near me is beyond abysmal.  Always

    It’s pretty basic numbers. If all cars were driven by computers today, crashes, injuries and fatalities would decrease by an astronomical amount.

    I wonder if logistics has anything to do with this.  The EV6 is produced in South Korea and already has to be shipped across the ocean.  Perhaps keeping it on the west coast cuts down on the need to train/truck vehicles further across the US mainland.

    Counter point.  I’ll trust a car driven by a computer far more than I’ll ever trust you or any other driver on the road to make good decisions.

    Is that kind of like the term “Autopilot” made people think the car could drive itself with no driver input?

    The point is development. You don’t start wireless in-road charging with the highway equivalent of i-Robot. It takes time to get there.

    I know it’s not exactly the same, but I’m sure similar questions were asked when we built the interstate highway system the first time.

    Well to be fair, Farley wants to be Musk’s bro so bad that Musk probably threw him a bone to make him feel better.

    This is exactly it. I’ve gotten a ton of responses to my original post explaining why Jalop commenters wouldn’t buy a Tesla... but most Jalop commenters aren’t typical consumers. Typical consumers go “Electric, price, easy to use, charging”. That’s it.

    Same here. I’ve never had an airbag deploy on me, but I try to stay as far back from it as safely possible.

    Psh, you just don’t understand how to look cool man!

    Or the fact that someone will, without doubt, pay $55k for it.

    I admittedly don’t know a ton about Tesla’s inventory level or production capacity, so it’s hard to comment on whether the volume “could be” a ton higher.
