counterpoint, shopping sucks and if you already know what you want and theres a good return/exchange policy, i’ll touch it when it arrives on my doorstep thx

an OSHA requirement for using a grinder is to have both a face shield and eye protection at the same time. Hardly anyone actually does this of course. but if that wheel shatters it could save your teeth or worse.

i don’t know about mitsubishi cars, but the mitsubishi mini split I bought for my upstairs is the best appliance I’ve ever bought in my life. super efficient, super quiet. its a beautiful machine and no i’m not kidding.

I had a rep with me, but it was out of the service center. That is why I wonder if a part of this announcement is a bit of a misnomer. Like they close the retail spots and get rid of their sales reps, and just keep the remaining ones at the service centers. I could be dead wrong about this. 

Of course designing devices that can be repaired and aren’t planned to be obsolete after 2-4 years would be the #1 way to reduce all sorts of waste across all industries

Can anyone tell me if closing the retail locations and ending test drives are related at all? Back in October I scheduled a test drive online and they had me go straight to a service center. I never saw the retail location. 

Counterpoint: I’m a millennial that has never met anyone that legitimately thinks that is a good idea 

I went to Indianapolis to test drive it, its about 2 hours away and I go there on business semi frequently anyway. As far as the drive itself, it was just like a normal car test drive at a dealer, I gave them my license and a Tesla rep rode in the backseat, and a co-worker and I both got to drive the car.

can confirm, buying pickups off a lot and looking for the engine and trailering options is a huge hassle. I’ve done this a lot at my job buying work trucks (we are a contractor and we pull trailers). The only way I’ve figured out how to do is is to read individual listings and either ask for a window sticker, or

legit question, I scheduled a test drive at a service center last year, so does that mean that future buyers won’t be able to do that going forward?

I live in one of those states where I can’t even receive delivery (kentucky sucks for so many reasons). I had to receive my delivery in Ohio or Indiana.

I have a model 3 and I was under the impression that I had to order it online, so this news is kind of surprising to me. I scheduled a test drive at a service center.

which they delivered...i mean honestly is tesla the only company that gets ripped for building a stripped version of their car when these forums seem to beg for that on other makes and models.

ah, thats crap then. too bad i already voted

do people buy the model x for efficiency? i mean, i guess its more efficient than a land cruiser or a range rover.

it will be interesting to see if they can get the range/efficiency they need on a giant 3 row electric SUV. people crush the model x for being an overpriced inefficient pig.

Did liberals hurt your feelings on Twitter?

Consumer reports most reliable car from a non scientifically data set exclusively made of self reported entries by kind of people that subscribe to consumer reports and have the time patience and motivation to fill out a lengthy survey about car ownership

Good luck actually finding one

All aquantences and general observations of personal experience tell me older Infiniti’s tend to be owned by dudes very concerned with appearance but not so much money and the result is lots of deferred maintenance and hard driving. Same could be said for a 1994 Acura legend honestly.
