Fair enough. I am far from an expert on electric motors, and I actually think Teslas are pretty darn cool. My premise was just that I am not impressed by any car needing a significant part of its drivetrain replaced in the first 100k miles, let alone needing it replaced twice. A Tesla is after all a car, and thus in…
I would love a pile of Taylor Swift’s linens...just to smell them. You know, nothing creepy.
This is bad kinja
Huh and despite my thousands of letters, phone calls, and random appearances at her house Taylor Swift won't even send me the one lock of hair I want. Some people have all the luck...
Kindly tell me what this is doing on my Deadspin.
Having to wait 30-45 minutes per charge to get another 150 real miles range does not sound sweet...
I understand that this is a cool story about a Tesla with 100k miles, but some nagging red flags come up.
So...he was comparing a 2 year old $70,000 car’s maintenance frequency to that of an 8 year old, $25,000 car with 3.3x as many miles? And the shocking result is that it’s lower?
How is two new drive units in 100k considered holding up well? That’s like saying “My two year old (insert any brand car here) has held up well, other than needing two new motors in 100k miles”
I’d say a Tatra T603... I think they’re gorgeous, but I know that’s not a universal feeling.
This helps explain why the Olympic pool smells like one of their ovens.
Alternate headline:
Considering we’re still years away from charging stations being anywhere close to convenient, it still boggles my mind that the Volt isn’t kicking Tesla’s ass.
The next step: Tesla fanboys denying that anything on the car could possibly cause a fire and if it did, which it didn’t, then every other car goes on fire as well.
Yep. Had a roommate do this to me. He was even nice enough to leave a note on the door telling me and our other roommate to not come home tonight. Fortunately, the ONLY window in the apartment that was opened was the one to his bedroom. So, I crawled in through the window, spent a minute critiquing his performance…
It’s like driving a couch. Even from his drive around, it still had that buttery float feel to it, you could tell. I bet all the suspension work allows it to float like that but still keep a much lower amount of body roll in the turns.
You aren’t the only one who read that as the 318 was from an unspecified Chevy.
I made literally no mention of swimmers in my post. Just calling out your idiotic line of reasoning. I choose to believe no one is really this dumb. So that leaves me to conclude you're simply trolling. So good job with that I guess.
You kids need to calm down with all this Bolt GOAT talk. Carl Lewis won nine gold medals, including four gold in four events in 1984.
