In Musk's case, it's about as wide as a Thai cave

Insurance has also skyrocketed across the board

Especially the “However, many households sell their vehicle before they get there” line is dumb, because the vehicle doesn’t stop being environmentally friendly when it moves to its second or third owner. Who cares if it takes until the 2nd owner until it becomes a net positive for the environment if the first owner…

I saw this on Saturday, Lightning Pro levelled on 35s:

Neutral: Spent last week with Covid. Wouldn’t recommend 1/5 stars.

Let’s also not forget that dealers shot themselves in the foot with the ADM antics last year. Hell, up until ~May this year, the Ford dealer nearest to me was still putting 5k markups on non-GT Mach Es, and 15k markups on the GT variants.

Regenerative braking is limited in the amount of braking force that it can apply to the vehicle so during harder stops, the friction brakes are more heavily utilized. If the vehicle is repeatedly applying moderate to heavy braking force, the rotors will heat up and require ventilation.

I work somewhere that makes some items that can kill people if they fail, for us a 0.02mm tolerance is extreme.  No-one is going to notice on a truck body.

Elon is a fucking moron.

This truck will be Teslas/Elons Spruce Goose.

Who cares what he says, the panel gaps are going to be atrocious either way.

Have you seen the price of tires?? Imma ride those fuckers until I see the air in them.

MC safety classes say to wait 20 minutes after it starts raining. I was in Maine under an overpass on the highway during a huge thunderstorm and as the water flowed by there were big soapy bubbles on the leading edge. I bet LA with a billion times more traffic is that much worse. 

This occurs in Sicily (or any similar climate). They go for most of the summer without any rain and around September the rain will start showing up. Most drivers are aware of this phenomenon and know to be cautious those first couple of hours or so.

An operable car with 50-75 miles of range would be worth saving — you could certainly sell a car like that for $1000 in the US unless it had other significant issues. For example, I cannot find a Mitsubishi iMiEV for sale *under* $5000 and many Smart fourtwo EV’s are still over $10k.

I like both tacos and burritos, but favor burritos. Warm, gooey, spicy burritos.

The correct answer is: whichever one is more convenient at the time.

because they’d have to have a clean bowl for every single customer, adding mess, prep time, and cost.

Makes sense to me. Most adults I know have been in 1 or zero accidents in their lifetime.
