“Now we have a scientific study to affirm this was a worst-case scenario, an event that appears to be accountable for 250,000 cases of COVID-19 at a public cost of $12 billion.”

While we all anticipated that Sturgis was going to be a COVID shit show, the figure of $46,000 average cost for a single COVID case doesn’t seem very credible.

I would love to see the breakdown on that $46,000 cost per case. Seems like more sketchy agenda pushing numbers. Considering that the only burden that 90% of the people I know that have gotten it have put on the healthcare system was getting the test. Only 2 or 3 of the other 10% actually had to be admitted tot he…

I just figured they were using a Z06 and it kept overheating. 

Because it overheated and broke down? 

I mean, I can only assume that the inherently flawed, untrackable car overheated and they had to finish the lap in limp mode.

This pretty much says it all

Yeah it’s not nearly exactly like his RS7 at all.

This car is worth $3000 at the absolute most.

Slow, under-powered, 150K on the clock, nearly old enough to run for President (vote Celica in 2020 . . .) and he wants $8,000 for the privilege of owning it.

“unfortunate setback for labor in the US”. They all still have good paying jobs with benefits. I would imagine if they Unionized and VW closed the plant or reduced the shifts, it would probably be worse for labor in America.

When you have to resort to made-up metrics to satisfy investors what does that say about your company’s health? If they were ACTUALLY doing well they’d just show that in some boring standardized financial format because there’s nothing to hide; when you come swinging with a bunch of nonsense it makes one wonder what…

These cars with failed suspensions are great buys. They are almost worthless with blown air ride but coilover kits are about $2k so you can eliminate the problem all together. I’d love to pick up an e500 wagon!

So basically they’re at Tesla’s “beta” Autopilot stage, but correctly calling them prototypes and using them in controlled situations and absorbing liability rather than giving under-prepared car users an EULA and letting them go nuts with a deceptively-named feature?

This is like if Fyre Festival became an energy drink.

I forgot how horrific the Veilside cars were.

There is more flexibility with a high output turbo motor then a larger displacement one. By reducing boost and adjusting timing and fuel you can essentially get a small turbo 4 to run like a small displacement motor (very fuel efficient) or run like a beast (less efficient but plenty of power). This can all be done…

Your not getting a new pack. You are getting a refurbished pack. Telsa RARELY will give you a new replacement pack (unless your car is pretty much new). My advice is to ask them to give you the best one that he has in stock.

$30k for a new battery pack??? Holy shit this car is so far in the crack pipe range it’s off the scales!!

Your Tesla couldn’t even make 100k without needing a $30k battery pack?  That’s pathetic.
