But horses are fully autonomous! They always find their way home. Cars are not quite there yet.

Autopilot is a work in progress and pretty impressive but not without shortcomings. Can you name an automaker who is doing better? One that is rolling out updates almost monthly?

Um, still living the past. They have made great improvements and they are getting better every day.

True that. I started selling selling heavy trucks in 1988 until I retired in 2009. They have made huge strides in reducing emissions. But they have come at a big cost. The changes made in the last decade have seen diminishing returns. I’m not sure much of it has made an impact but the price of heavy trucks has gone up…

“It seems completely inevitable that Tesla will eventually introduce proper model years but they haven’t done so yet. That’s when we’ll know Tesla has really made it.”

I pay an additional $80 per year tacked on to my registration fee for owning an EV.

How exactly? Do you understand that a big portion of what you pay for gasoline is for state and federal taxes? Or maybe you weren’t aware.

Meh. You get used to it. So they say.

Sounds like sour grapes to me.

You’re living in the past. Have you seen one lately? Tesla does not stand still.

Good first effort but not that impressive. I just traded my utilitarian but boring 2020 Nissan Leaf SL+ on a Tesla model 3 SR+. 263 miles of range covers 99% of my driving. At 3616 lbs. It is lighter than the Mazda and almost any other EV in its class. Including the Leaf. 0-60 in 5.3 seconds and that is limited by…

“I do agree that the yoke looks kind of dumb though.”

Dog bites man never makes the headlines. Now, man bites dog...

Paid for? Same here.

It was not all unicorns and rainbows. One of my flight instructors had a ‘72 four door with what hediscovered was a chronic problem with the automatic transmissions. Input shaft seals. It seems they needed frequent replacing.

4,000 lb.? I think you may be a bit off on that estimate. 

Should be 25. Universally. No, really.

Meh, Toyota. Mistook the brake for the gas again.

Autopilot is not FSD. Please educate yourself.

And who doesn’t want the government to hand out more money? Names please.
