Yep. They just make the statement with no backup. Typical click-bait era news.

I’m going to cast side-eyes at the messenger, CNBC, in the same way that I do MSNBC and ABC.

Meh, I drive 600 miles each way everyday, both uphill in the snow with a full truck bed. That range wont work for me........therefore all electric cars are garbage.

Goobers will say they need to haul their 69 full sheets of plywood at least 690 miles every day, in less than 6-9 hours, but I think this thing is great.  And I’m a car guy.

Jokes on Ford, Tesla recently secured all outstanding stock of wooden corner guards from Home Depot. Good luck with that Ford!

I guess the Jalopnik Slack channel has an ongoing “How can we move the goalposts for Tesla?” topic.

The test isn’t about safety or whatever.

(*Loudly clears throat*) Oh? There’s a semiconductor shortage? I was told by the 45th President of the United States, the “dealmaker” himself Donald Trump that “Trade wars are good, and easy to win.” Are you saying that Honest Donald lied to us? Perhaps China is hoarding semiconductors for themselves because of the…

Counterpoint:

That is a remarkably stupid idea.

Here in Finland less than a quarter of cars have AWD and it snows everywhere. It’s not an issue unless you are an idiot.

omg stop giving Sandy a platform. The guy is a fake know it all.

I remember reading a line in a Greenpeace pamphlet sometime in the 1980's that said something to the effect of “big companies will do something about global warming when it becomes more profitable than ignoring it”. Even as a kid I realised that was true.

Sandy has realized he can profit from an endless loop of Tesla fanboys promoting him as an all knowing expert on everything, and Sandy then promoting the Tesla superiority complex. It grows with each iteration. He sprinkles in some criticism about panel gaps to give the appearance he isn’t a shill.

He might know about…

Seems we the people have had enough

I feel like the Mach E is the perfect car for people who don’t want to deal with the potential baggage that Teslas carry (inconsistent service, Elon, ergonomics not for everyone, etc...). It’s a car that is close enough in performance, but people can still take to their dealer when something happens. Kind of a good…

Bruh. This shit ain’t changing. A few weeks ago, I decided to do a little gag as a joke, when the President of the United States started openly undermining free and fair elections.

TLDR: The fact that you’re comparing the fun one can have driving an electric SUV thing (not even the highest performance model at that) to what is America’s longest running name plate synonymous with American style, performance and lust is saying quite a bit. Doug and a bunch of other Youtubers have chimed in just as…

It’s also larger than the Bolt and also isn’t styled like a $20k econo-hatchback, which should give it a big advantage over the Bolt aesthetically.
