“Do that and drop it $5,000.” What automaker has done that? 

It would appear Nissan is on track to sell about 2,500 of these this year. (US)

They will need a separate tank for diesel so they can continue to roll coal.

Ahh.. the good ol’ “Laws for thee, but not for me.”

It’s almost like you would charge at home 90% of the time.

I fail to understand why this is a nightmare/how this is any different (worse) than Uber/Lyft today. Today you have drivers driving around sitting and waiting for passengers to request them, which may not at all be in step with demand.

With Tesla’s app, you request it, the vehicle wakes up and drives to the person (And…

As an owner with a TT-RS that just had to do a 10k engine rebuild.. take your star.

Rain sensor underneath the chasis? That sounds like an additional component to break and have cost, and by the time that is occurring, the wash would already be occurring, rendering a chunk of that functionality useless.

Even though you’re plated from another state? Do they have all the states that don’t require front plates memorized, or was that just some on-the-spot bullshit?

What an exciting post! It’s almost like all software can potentially have flaws and vulnerabilities. GASP!

Next thing you’re going to tell me is that you could hack an airplane by covering its sensors with tape!

So what exact reason did the trooper give for pulling you over? The tint?

Show me a 35K model from another company that’s available for purchase.

The Leaf? The Bolt? How well are those doing sales-wise versus the Model 3?

I don’t doubt the Porsche will eat at some sales/force Tesla to drop the price of the Model S or refresh it, but the Model S is plenty competitive, and Tesla has more brand…

Yeah.. tell that to my TT-RS that’s in the shop getting a new engine.

This has been my problem with the news that every automaker is about to make a “Tesla Killer.” It’s so many years away. 2023? That’s 4 years from now. 

Well, it sounds like from other user reports, at least it didn’t catch on fire!

Well they leave and arrive from the same place (Union->Penn). I think the last time I’d looked, a train ticket was $70-$85, and a bus ticket was somewhere around $30.

What’s are the advantages over taking a MegaBus or similar? Aren’t they essentially half the price and take the same time as the regional?

Doesn’t always happen for trains, either.

The importance is mostly marketing. If you’re buying an electric car, and need to take a few trips across the country you can always.. rent a gasoline powered car if you have no charging options. (which others of course exist, they just won’t charge as fast.)

Most charging is done at home. (Note, yes there is a [very] …

Or wait a few more years, and then our national budget will be entirely military spending!
