I have a fun story about this. I was tasked at a different job to review a test report. Actually, my task was to route it for review, not perform the review. One of the experts came back with questions and comments, that I addressed.

This is exactly what first should be electrified: any vehicle that runs the same limited route, day after day, and returns home to recharge each night. Every mail truck, school bus, city bus should be an EV ASAP.

For something as essential and utilitarian as a postal truck, it’s nice that appearance was the least important factor and they went all in on function. Hopefully, the reliability is just as good as the form factor.

Another brilliant move by Elon! He invented a car so safe that even people who break in don’t get hurt!

You can’t be that dumb. The clear issue here is not that they’re fixing it. It’s that they’re not admitting it’s broken to begin with.

Or hear me out, you don’t NEED to bring your dog everywhere you go, service animals excluded. If you are going somewhere that doesn’t allow dogs, leave it at home. If you are just popping into the gas station for literally a couple of minutes, assuming you have been driving and the inside is cool, crack the windows…

Whatabout whatabout whatabout. lol

Yeah and notice literally NONE of us are whining about a “rigged court room,” “weaponized DOJ,” “conflicted judge,” or it’s all a “witch hunt?” Somehow I doubt you have the same maturity level as the rest of us. 

All because he got caught liking anime girls one time.

Realistically the speed of the steering is fine and it’s not so much lag (or in other words, a response delay) as it is the operator is able to move the steering wheel faster than the steering rack can actually move. In a conventional steering system you’ll meet some resistance in the steering wheel that prevents you…

It seems like they aren’t filtering out conservatives, they’re filtering out untrustworthy liars who are causing harm with misinformation.

I feel like this has an incredibly narrow definition of “life” and “civilization.”

Meeting new lifeforms and civilizations isn’t going to be like Star Trek where everyone just looks like they have a lot of prosthetic make up on. We might encounter an advanced civilization and not even realize it because it doesn’t…

Speaking as an accountant (no i don’t work for the auto industry), there was probably a choice to be made by the executives. Either cut the expenses on the buttons, or cut some jobs, or cut some other costs. 

Everyone knows that you have to caulk the wagon first.

If enough people switch to EVs, gas demand should go down, keeping the price reasonable (unless the government slaps mandates on that too - then it’s black market time).

Wanna save combustion engines? There’s a way...

It’s almost like both things can be true at the same time because people have different needs/wants for their cars. Imagine that!

I mean we all don’t have to choose 1 thing and 1 thing only. We can have options. The main goal should be to cut the amount of people needing to drive in to work everyday and eliminate Traffic jams as much as possible. Rush hour should be a thing of the past, but I don’t know why leadership is totally against these…

I recently read a comment on Instagram about how American cars were built so much better in the ‘80s (it was a discussion about the C4 in comparison to more modern Corvettes) and my eyes nearly fell out of my head and I wanted to ask just how many lead paint chips the commenter had eaten back then.  Your experience…

Which is a shame, because the SC series cars they replaced, while inexpensive, didn’t kill you with the cheap. They weren’t pleasant per se, but they were a good value for the price point.
