I’m extremely curious about one thing - do people really love their loss-making gypsy cab rides and the associated dickish Randian CEO? Or is this astroturfing by offshore paid PR commenters?

Starred due to my intense dislike of TTAC (although maybe they’re different now, I got chastised for a barely insulting comment about Toyota a few years ago. But they loved to bash American automakers so screw them)

This is pretty much my beef with Tesla and Autopilot. They should either test it themselves, or at least stand by their customers when an accident happens while autopilot is in use.

The Tesla service technicians messed up. Instead of uploading TACC, they uploaded TTAC. No wonder the car ran all over the place with no clear direction.

When I shop for Insurance, I am asked explicitly if I ever use my car for hire, business or rent it out; I wonder what Turo users say to this question...

fun fact; the little spots on the Corvette’s rear window are tiny Corvette logos.

This was great. You know why? Because, for all of 2 minutes, I wasn’t thinking about the next four years.

I fail to see the truck kid’s goal here. “This old guy threatened to go to his car to get a gun, so let me back over his car [further infuriating him] get my truck stuck in the process, and risk my family’s life like sitting ducks on his hood if he does produce the gun he says he has. Parking on the hood wouldn’t…

Looks as if Camrys really are getting crushed in the marketplace by trucks and SUVs!

Don’t be ridiculous.

If only it had been a Prius.

Why wouldn’t you just goose-step all the way home like all the other nazis?

$1500? Man, your coworkers got ripped off.
