Whatever, dude. You’re wrong on a bunch of stuff, but it’s not worth my time to argue with strangers on the internet.

Obviously, this is indicative of a massive cultural problem that should be a surprise to no one, and obviously, this problem needs to be solved.

Me too! And it’s so inconvenient the way I die every time I leave it switched on in a closed garage.

Oh, I’m not defending Tesla by any means. My hopes are pinned on the Hyundai Kona Electric, the second-gen Leaf and the Chevy Bolt. I just wondered if a used Model S would be a better value than a new Model 3 - they’re far from perfect, but at least the technology is slightly better established, and at least it has…

I watched the 3-minute YouTube clip, and I have no idea what in the fuck I just witnessed. It’s one of 3 things:

Yeah, but the giant mud truck crowds are pretty much 100% assholes, so the bar isn’t exactly set all that high.

As a relatively rental-ignorant person, I may need this explained. What makes rental cars different? Is it just that they’re really heavily used?

Oddly, the bit where the graph goes high seems to correspond with the first couple years of the JK Wrangler. Previous generations look actually lower than the competitors, and it goes back down for 2018 (probably coinciding with the introduction of the JL).

Ah, I wasn’t aware of that. For some reason I assumed they’d build the cheap one first, as they did with the Model S.

I have other issues with my electric car. It costs me over ten bucks to go a hundred miles, it’s sluggish off the line, I have to drain and replace a bunch of gross goo every few months, there’s several thousand parts and it stops working every time one of them breaks, it makes an annoying noise all the time, it…

Ah, the E thing makes more sense.

I don’t recall. Doug reviewed one of them - I thought it was the cheap one, but I might be remembering it wrong.

I’m not sure “mythical” is the word I’d use - it definitely exists, at least enough for Doug DeMuro to stick his finger in the huge panel gaps.

So they have a problem with Tesla using a name that sort of sounds like one Ford used a long time ago, but they don’t have a problem with Tesla using a name that Ford actually did use a long time ago?

Gotta widen out those fenders so it doesn’t scrape! The way it is, it looks like it has about an inch of suspension travel.

Grew up with an SW2. Can confirm - posh.

Nah, that looks much better than the truck.

Fair point. Sounds like the truck was the best option. Enjoy it!

Nice choice. Did you look at a 4-banger Mustang by any chance? No AWD, but it fits the rest of your criteria (although the pickup will doubtless be more practical).

I KNOW RIGHT? AAAUUGGGHH!! GET ME SOME REALLY DARK SUNGLASSES, QUICK!
