Now, an exec departing from the American electric vehicle maker has questioned the “long game” behind boss Elon Musk’s cuts at the automaker.

There once was a man from Nantucket

It would be a fair response to having microtransactions foisted on you after the fact.

Are jailbroken Teslas going to become a thing? 

The fact that it’s currently the most popular post on the site would beg to differ.

Tesla infamously prioritises new car production over spare parts for repairs. The repair itself being cheap is meaningless if you’re waiting weeks or months for parts to become available. Downtime is a big consideration for fleet maintenance. A Ford might have a higher cost to repair, but you can go pretty much…

I’m curious as well as to the maintenance costs. I’d imagine frequent tire replacement is one, but perhaps it’s just the service network.

Can the airlines still just blame the weather for any delays and leave us screwed with no compensation? 

“The report caught the attention of the Orange County Auto Theft Task Force, which traced the vehicle to Rodgers’ home in Costa Mesa and had it under surveillance all morning.”

Anyone worried about that police instruction?

This could have been sorted out without the police. This was a possible lethal use of police resources.

A dozen cops for one stolen ca . . . Oh.

The Taco only gets 24mpg with the hybrid, which is pretty disappointing honestly. The Maverick gets between 35-40mpg and is cheaper to buy

“Unless your purchase is primarily dictated by cost . . .” For many, if not most potential buyers, cost IS a big part of the equation, especially when looking at midsize pickups. If funds are virtually unlimited, those lucky buyers will, most likely, be looking at their full-size options.

Autonomous Robotaxis- this is how much the US hates the idea of just improving public transit. Like, seriously, you could take a fraction of the amount of cash it will take to develop a functional autonomous taxi and just invest in improved public transit everywhere. Oh look, we’ve made buses and trains and trams and…

I don’t think I’ve done either of those things you’ve accused me of in this article.

I cant watch the video at work, but unmarked car and police in street clothes (which is what it sounds like these cops were from the article) cannot expect to be treated like cops when they run up on people.

But no range anxiety, smaller battery = less weight, which all translates to more fun and less tyre wear (and less road wear).

On The Radio: “I AM TRAPPED IN A SEWER WITH A CONFESSED ARSONIST BROCK!!! HELP ME!!”

Look to the Tacoma as an indication of what the new 4Runner will be.
