(a) it’s never going to be as cheap as $50k

Never mind racing on potentially 4C track temperatures and everyone freezing their asses off in the grandstands.

All the more reason we should be able to direct-buy from every manufacturer in every state.

Get the RWD Wind version and you’ll never worry about range. EPA rated 310miles and I can get a real-world 300 in the warmer months (+35C) and 240miles in the middle of winter (-15C). By “real world” I mean driving it without any concessions to it being an EV. I run in regular/comfort mode with I-pedal on all the…

MGK Is just another douchebag “A-lister” who had absolutely NO idea why he was at an F1 race. Maybe get some real F1 fans and let them get on the grid pre-race and talk about their passion instead of entitled cunts like this.

Except they’re not casual fans. The only people at these events are a-listers and stars who didn’t pay for their own tickets and have absolutely no idea why they’re there.

As a former Model S owner, that isn’t worth $3,900, let alone $39,000. One-trick pony, built poorly with the cheapest materials, with abominable customer service. Worst vehicle I’ve ever owned, and I owned a Peugeot in the 80's....

I’m a lifelong F1 fan but this Vegas thing is a total shitshow. Liberty media claim they want to make F1 more accessible then they pull this shit - blocking windows, allowing $38k “basic” tickets? Fuck right off. If I lived there, I’d be pulling this stuff down too.

So the long, long, L-O-N-G queues at supercharger facilities will just get that much worse now. And given that the VIN is exchanged during the handshake between the vehicle and the EVSE, all it will take it one wrong tweet that Elon deems to be a sleight against his character and he can cut off an entire brand from…

Fixed your headling for you.

Because Lewis crawled under every car and looked for himself did he?

That’s not a big key. And it has an emergency entry key blade inside that you can use to unlock in case the electronic system doesn’t work. Something Tesla, Polestar, Rivian etc could learn from. Having a trendy little plastic card is great until it doesn’t work. Then you’re getting a wrecker to show up to “gently”…

Given that “influencer” isn’t a thing, that makes AI “influencers” even less of a thing. For fuck’s sake make your own mind up - don’t listen to these dimwits who are so self-important and entitled that they think everything should be given to them for free just because “I have a YouTube channel!”. Much less stars and…

It’s actually easy to find cheapER fares on Delta (within their own pricing system) using their ‘flexible travel dates’ calendar. Put rough dates in you want to travel, and then go to the calendar. You’ll see the return ticket price for your chosen dates but you can scroll back and forth around a 5-week period to see…

All the sharp edges on the cybertruck make me doubt it will ever be allowed to truly go on sale with the original design. Modern pedestrian safety standards will see to that. Although to be fair, Elon’s continual promises are the biggest reason I don’t think it will ever see the light of day. It’s FSD in physical…

As a one-time Model-S owner, I can honestly say I’d never buy another Tesla product. My experience with the Model-S as a car and Tesla as a company was so bad I actually went back to an ICE vehicle for 3 years before stepping into the EV game again.

Consumer confidence is only hurt by the oil and gas lobby spreading BS stories about EVs. Things like parking lots and roads needing to be strengthened (there are plenty of ICE vehicles way heavier than EVs), that the electric grid will collapse (it won’t), that EVs all catch fire (they don’t). EVs have a mountain to…

1st gear - it will be here “next year” right along with FSD.

Does Andretti have the balls to lose for the first 10 seasons before becoming competitive? That’s the key question. My guess is not. My guess is that they’re expecting to win right off the bat based on the name alone, and when they fail, fail and fail again, they’ll lose interest and bail out. The extra races in the…

I wish more people would admit this. Almost every ICE driver I talk to says “I fill up in 3 minutes and I’m gone”. Except nobody on a road trip fills up in 3 minutes, especially not if they have a partner or family with them. Including waiting for a pump, everyone getting something to eat and drink, everyone having to…
