lol at the plastic sheets protecting the floor mats...  don’t get the car dirty!

I mean, “Youtuber” isn’t a real job or qualification or anything

Stick with me here... The malice isn’t in the intent, but in the ignorance of the assumption.

I am shocked, shocked I say, to learn that this guy is a Republican. /s

I wonder if he is pulling a Doug DeMuro of intentionally putting wrong information in the video (little things) so that people engage with the post. Either way, it doesn’t matter in the end, because he has a reputation that people trust. That’s the double edged sword of using influencers.

Forgot to mention as cons for the Hyundai/Kia, higher insurance costs and poorly-built engines leading you to being given the runaround by dealers while it fails.

Taste is one of the last things that matters when it comes to discussing the failings of Trump’s cabinet. They did their best to de-regulate everything they could for the sole purpose of a few benefactors making more money. Elaine Chao was literally in the exact position to affect car manufacturers and gave zero shits…

She spent the key years of Tesla growth doing nothing related to their myriad safety issues as a company, potentially putting others in danger all while hoarding money for her family. Erin called it tragic (she could have also called it ironic) which is polite given the circumstances.

Poor taste is only an issue for…

Because a 1200 dollar tune is about 3 times cheaper than replacing a particulate filter.  I'm not saying it's right, but I understand.

As long as it’s on the drawing/spec/mod list/process/etc., totally fine. If not, that’s a problem.

The dish soap itself wouldn’t bother me if it was in the assembly spec. But since it wasn’t there’s probably no paper trail of which planes got soaped up and which ones didn’t. Maybe it matters, maybe it doesn’t, but it does make me concerned about what other steps they’ve been improvising.

One of two major mistakes.  

Not really surprised by this outcome. Tire manufacturers often leapfrog one another as they learn from their competition and release new versions of their tires. The great thing for all of us is that there are several great tire options in just about every category. Last year was “new tire time” for both my current…

I agree with you for the most part, but I don’t think people will be interested in driving further because EVs are cheaper to operate. Most of us are limited by how much time we care to spend behind the wheel, not by the cost per mile, which remains negligible - as evidenced by how many people leave their ICE cars…

I want to see greens, oranges, burgundy, and deep purples. Even a bluish slate grey looks better than this.

Ive worked for GM and then various Tier-1 and Tier 2 suppliers and these cars look like primered development mules whose bodies were run though the E-coat dip tank and then shot with clear coat. I hate this grey trend.

When the head of Nikola lied about his truck, he was prosecuted and sent to prison.  When is Elon facing this?

Interesting that we’ve seen videos of tug-o-wars with Rivians, F150s Lightnings and Hummer EVs without this issue occurring.

Except, no, because it’s not like a transmission switching between forward and reverse.  Electricity doesn’t care if the load is caused by having to pull an object, versus having to go up a steep hill.  Load is load.

Had a dealer service department tell my wife she needed new brake pads after 18,000 miles. She told them, “that doesn’t sound right”. The bag of dirt mechanic said, “yeah, I thought that was strange too.” With a straight face.
