That is, for those wonder, one fucking percent of the entire US population filing an unemployment claim. The GOP is living is a goddamn fantasy world on getting things “back to normal.” 

As of writing the post Nathan Grayson has been missing for the past seven days. His apartment was found empty save for a fully booted pc and a still running Index gently seated on a gaming chair.

I’d say 99%

More passenger and cargo room with nearly the same range and handling. I’ll definitely be checking this out. If I have any fundamental issues with the Model 3, it’s the seating position (or lack of legroom, specifically) and inflexible cargo space.

My understanding is that if Tesla is the direct seller of the used vehicle (at any stage) they may strip all existing software features in the vehicle and then sell it at a lower cost (later to be upgraded by future owner). It’s completely fair for them to do that and allows the car to sell at a lower price and thus…

I can see this being an issue if you are buying from some regular dealer but if you buy it from a Tesla dealer it should come as when you purchased it. Whenever I have my Volvo serviced they change the tune back to factory but as I have a thingy I can re-load it anytime, too bad you cant do it for Tesla

Here’s one from almost exactly a year ago.

WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT BRADLEY IT’S MY GOD GIVEN RIGHT TO DRIVE THIS AND YOU CAN PRY IT FROM MY COLD DEAD HANDS

It’s not a matter of purism. Updating or refreshing a mark is one thing, but completely changing it so that it’s unrecognizable is another. You completely lose decades of constant brand recognition and equity. You’ll never see Mercedes drop the star, McDonalds drop the arches, or Nike drop the swoosh just for the sake…

THANK YOU. The whole point of a logo is it’s a consistent factor for me to associate your brand with. Changing it up for no particular reason does the exact opposite of its intended purpose.

Everything is going flat again and retro-simple. Go back to the 1963 version - no need to reinvent the wheel. Losing the black ring gives the logo less impact. This is just change for change’s sake and not for any good reason. Just read that stupid PR-quote to confirm that. Of course all the German cars I buy are 20+…

I don’t get why logos are “due for updates” anyway. Unless there’s a fundamental shift in the business that muddles the logo’s message or they used some very period-specific styling in the first place, there’s no need to change something that currently works. It only makes sense when there’s a functional issue to be…

It’s actually not Tesla’s fault there. The existing standards simply were not capable of the charge speeds they needed so they were forced into making their own. They offered it as a standard if people wanted to adopt it but nobody else did so they went and made their own and Europe and Japan didn’t agree either so…

Already plenty of competitors given how expensive car manufacturing is. It’s just that the barriers to entry are very high so most newcomers will fail and Tesla is the exception.

I don’t see that much doom and gloom. The reason there isn’t really a competitor to Tesla is that building cars is hard, developing a new model takes a long time and nobody took Tesla’s concept seriously. We are only really seeing real Tesla competitors - fast, cool, premium EVs - right now with the Taycan and Mach-E,…

Step 1: Scam US taxpayers.
Step 2: ??
Step 3: Justin Bieber
Step 4: Profit for execs only.

I actually like the Ocean. I think it looks cool, and on paper it sounds good. But that last part is the problem - on paper. If I ever see one on the road, I’ll be fucking shocked. 

Do I need to take you Outback and shoot you in the Forester?

This may Justy be my opinion, but Mercedes really has abandoned its Legacy.

it definitely seems to cheapen the look doesn’t it? Haven’t this in person, but if it’s the matte black plastic that every other car has it just doesn’t help the premium perception of German luxury.
