I was talking to a person who worked the ramp at an airport. They recounted a story of another employee driving a forklift and “bumping” the plane.

You just described my love life.

Speaking of which...Crutchfield should be pivoting into different markets. Since the touchscreens of modern vehicles are basically non-standard, they’re going to slowly lose business as older cars drop out of the market.

Early 2010's Toyota’s kind of had the same issue. I haven’t used a recent Toyota, so I’m not sure if that aspect has improved or not.

And yet 9/10 reviews of Mazda in the last decade or so praise them for their “no touchscreen” screen setup.

Soooo....pretty much all of them now?

The screen and computer backing it being unreliable are a function of Tesla’s design, not the basic concept. They chose less than optimal components for their first gen touchscreens, which has cost them with a series of recalls.

Might as well put it behind the shifter. LOL.

That’s a dick move. Also, legally, he cannot be personally held liable for the mistake if it was an honest mistake and not done maliciously. That station owner should be fired...out of a cannon.

Sure, as long as you stay off Interstates.

Fucking morons.

From what I can glean, it’s not about using public funds for free charging. There are places where the chargers are placed by a business hoping to attract customers or, in the case of Volta, using ad revenue to subsidize equipment and electricity.

This is why the human species is doomed to extinction. There is no Star Trek future for us, only a slow and prolonged end to our rule of this planet.

Take it to a Volvo dealer. They’ll buy it and sell it as “Certified Used.”

GM’s Bolt/Euv not inexpensive enough for you?

I think it’s more that the Mach-E is a bit ungainly looking from some angles.

Impala?

If this is roughly related to the Lyriq, it could have the HPs to compete with the Mach-E, at least.

I believe the US is only one of a few countries that have a dedicated executive aircraft such as Air Force One. As you allude to, most heads of state actually do fly commercial - usually on their country’s flagship airline if there is one.

Pretty soon, Boeing will be known as a defense contractor that dabbles in commercial aircraft:)
