I am not spending $30K on a bike. That is insane. Even for new tech. A Ducati Panigale starts in the low 20's. How can HD even expect to compete with that?

Couldn’t tell you the last time I saw an Infinity, period, let alone a new one. 

IT TOOK THREE PEOPLE TO WRITE THIS?

but beep in mind the dealers and the automakers can only throw so much money at these cars from a financial perspective.

Yeah, I’m a long-term Tesla skeptic, but increasing sales while your much larger competition with better retail, marketing and sales operations than you have are all struggling is objectively impressive. I expect a lot of people to buy the dip here.

Wall street is pretty dumb when it comes to Tesla. September was a horrible month for ALL car manufacturers. Even SUBARU saw a decrease in sales after 93 MONTHS of continual sales growth!!

You said you would make 5 billion dollars this quarter and you only made 4.9989 billion. Dropping your stock price by 50% - Wall Street.

Ya know....in the age of Porsche charging $5k for a clock or Ferrari charging $30k for a paint job, I’m gonna let this pass. At least this is cool.

Great fucking story.

This is awesome.

The guy is a hero for standing up for what he believes in, in the face of an oppressive government.  The fact that he beats up Tai Chi dorks is icing on the cake.

This was fascinating and illuminating. Glad Deadspin is sticking so closely to sports like this.

+1 for honesty.

Well, this article resonates with me real well. 25 years old, a $500+ monthly payment for 72 months to own my 18 Civic Type R, and I don’t even live on my own yet. My payment was not supposed to be this high, but I had negative equity from my previous trade in that I had to roll in that i did not plan on at all... and…

It’s possible to be against the US foreign policy in the Middle East and not just whitewash the Iranian Regime’s actions.

Given even the few proponents of military action against Iran (the biggest of which left the administration) generally don’t support a full scale invasion, this isn’t a serious argument.
