As much as the fanboys say he’ll just get a slap on the wrist, remember, the SEC is the same body that put Martha Stewart in jail and barred her from being a CEO for 5 years. Elon might be loved by the fanboys, but Martha was loved by a Nation. The SEC will not be gentle with Elon. 

That....I cannot fathom to understand. I almost feel like the Boring company was built in response to Elon tearing out the rail lines and having to come up with an logical explanation why they needed to go

I’ve been having so many fanboy arguments lately...

You’re whole argument would be moot if he killed the rider. Luck save the riders life, that’s all that stood in the way of douchebags maneuver. If you cannot see with certainty because of a blind-spot, that’s not an argument that will hold water if the law was brought in. You as a driver are responsible to ensure you…

This isn’t a new business model. BMW and Mercedes have done it this way for years and you’re still able to negotiate. 

This isn’t a particularly new business model for any of the German manufacturers, especially the ones that build in Germany. Order any bespoke BMW/Mercedes and it’s ordered directly from the factory and shipped to you. Family has ordered a 7-series this way once in the colour and spec they wanted. Took about a month…

That is sort of a moot argument as NHTSA doesn’t test all vehicles within a company, hell they have massive gaps in entire company lineups. Right now a company like Volvo has a complete 5 star rating... for the cars that NHTSA tested, but cars like the V90 weren’t tested.
Easy to test a company with low model change…

After helping design a microbrewery (and by micro, I mean F’ing massive brewery) and learning about the processing/quality control that goes into Lagers; I can definitely say that smaller batch producers are masking bad beers with more hops. Hops are killing good flavours. Microbrewers that can pull off a Lager…

Lets not forget we have the Howitzer sized M982 Excalibur round that cranks out the 155mm’s range to 35miles.

Why wasn’t there a cradle on the front wheels?

What’s this.... just like a, you know.... proper dealership???

However, if the under 50 logic was the truth we wouldn’t have Apple Stores. People still want to see, touch and be told how great the product is. Now the culture of sales has changed from the car salesman, but the person interface in still there.

Helped run a corporate architecture firm which had many smaller firms nationally. Exerting pressure on someone with everything to lose (their firm and its profits) increases performance over trying to exert pressure on internal staff of the head company (a paycheque). There is a breaking point to that pressure, but…

Tesla:

The Dodge Daytona/Laser had the lines and size to take on the Fox body Mustang, but never materialized. Even the Daytona name had history to work off of, but never lived up to its predecessor

When someones does this it just gives me a massive shrug... when is it exciting? Its a butchered FWD car that is now RWD... its not some sort of kit... its a massive custom job that amounts to exterior sheet metal on whatever.

As a father I feel for the children that loose their parents, but at the end of the day, that is what life insurance is for. $13 bucks a month gets you $150,000 worth of insurance, a small fee to pay for comfort knowing you’re children won’t be left in the lurch.

I’ll have to disagree, Musk doesn’t fit the true Bond villain mold. You know who does, Bezos. Totally the fits the mold, richest man in the world; oversees an empire — Amazon, Amazon Studios, Amazon Video, Whole Foods and dozens more in fields of software, cloud services (Amazon Web Services), publishing (Washington…

That was the same with TPP... When Trump pulled out whining about being unfair all the Pacific partners just did a collective shrug, waved goodbye and continue to forged a massive multi trillion dollar trade pact. There is a reason Canada has been championing TPP and EU trade deals, we need to diversify away from the…
