I still don’t understand when I hear how people are still having to be on a wait list to buy one. There are literally a hundred new ones occupying a grass field next to the bayou next to the Cypress Tesla location in Houston...I’m clearly not smart enough to get this whole business.

Yeah, I know it says it’s in Phoenix and the sun can be rough on things, but this thing does NOT look like you’re trying to sell it for $17k. It doesn’t look obviously dirty, but at the same time not really clean...

That’s not true, there are plenty of recent builds with garages that are just as small and won’t fit this truck.

I personally wouldn’t buy one, but it absolutely beats the pants off the Cybertruck for the same price. And the midgate makes the small bed much more capable.

How much do you bet these new self-driving regulations will somehow absolve the manufacturer of the legal liability of running these cars. The insurance industry may be the last hope of American children, pets, and even adults from being run over by Cyber(death)Cabs.

How exactly Musk supposedly used Starlink to steal the election isn’t entirely clear

Here we have someone that spent thousands on political idolatry. I wonder what people like this did before Trump?

I live in the suburbs of Nashville in Williamson County, TN — I was at a shopping center near me this weekend, and saw a big overflow lot (the parking lot of what was once a Toys R Us) being used by the Tesla location in Franklin. There are literally hundreds of Teslas sitting there, and I’d estimate at least two…

Why didn’t Trump do it in the first half of his first term when his party controlled BOTH houses of Congress?

When asked about “tackling the nation’s debt,” he mentioned changing the tax code, and then went on to say there would be some financial difficulty imposed on some Americans. “Most importantly, we have to reduce spending to live within our means,” he said, adding that these efforts will “involve some temporary…

Fuck, and I cannot stress this enough, Elon Musk. 

Or as Tesla FSD calls it, open season.

My bonus mom has a 2006 STS-V, in almost the same color combo. Hers is silver with a grey interior. She’s had it since she purchased it CPO in 2010.

From personal experience, I’m not surprised at all to see so many Michelin tires. I’m also not surprised to see Hankook, as all three of the big Korean brands (Hankook, Nexen, Kumho) are a fantastic value. What I am surprised about is the lack of Firestone and Bridgestone. I’ve put more than 70,000 miles on both…

DepLorean.

The car did alert after hitting the deer, it just alerted RFK, Jr. to come pick up the carcass and dispose of it in Central Park. That’s the new protocol. 

Then why isn’t Joe Biden in the race anymore? It’s pretty clear he didn’t want to bow out. 

farrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrt

I can’t count the number of times where something mildly insane happened to me and I later on wondered why the hell I didn’t do X, because obviously X would have been clear and reasonable thing to do, rather than Y, which was either somewhat useless or completely counter-productive. Things like this put us in weird…

So as I understand it from the anecdote, Trump talked to a friend who builds “the biggest factories.” He wanted to see one of these giant factories, but they’re apparently all in Mexico. Nine months later, there are no giant factories in Mexico because “they” heard that trump is running for president.
