Counterpoint: They were grossly too expensive to being with, so I just see it as $50k of depreciation and $20-30k margin grab taken off. I can’t imagine the margins on just upping the output of an electric motor through software. You could get an almost mechanically identical Audi RS etron GT for $150k (which was also…

So does Gawker force you to have “wild takes” to drive readership?

Jalopnik was better before Gawker bought it.

SAY IT LOUDER FOR THE PEOPLE IN THE BACK PLEASE!

Material Scientist & Engineer / metallurgist here. Tesla is using a custom cold rolled 300 series stainless steel, so similar to type 304 and 316 austenitic stainless steel. Marketing name “ultra-hard 30X”.

Don’t drive it in the rain or get it wet? Is this a truck or a museum piece? What an utter shit show.

Weenox is a pro-Musk troll, ignore & dismiss.

Just take the L, dude. 

And you’re a stupid fuck. Wanna sympathize with mass shooters next? They were just having mental health episodes, too, shit bag. If some person is having a panic attack in public or something, then yes, you should 100% sympathize with that person. You do not, under any circumstances, need to have sympathy for someone…

Kudos to you for trying to find sympathy for this former officer, but I think you’ll see most cannot.  And for good reason.  An officer (former deputy) almost ended the life of a suspect, acting like judge and jury, which seems like most police want to be.  Not a good look.

So, somehow this was missed in the search before they loaded him in the car?

I think two things were involved here

Easily. Officer Dumbfuck clearly demonstrated why he’s Officer Dumbfuck.

The officer served (2) tours overseas. Seeing the lasting affects a tour in Afghanistan has had on a relative, I believe this officer has undiagnosed PTSD which impacted his reaction here.

“The officers had reason to believe Jackson owned/possessed a firearm with a suppressor.”

Maybe if somebody has such bad PTSD that they think acorns are gunshots and empty their firearm at the sound of an acorn, they shouldn’t be allowed access to firearms?

Sorry Jesse. That story didn’t sell on tape, and it ain’t going to get any extra credit here.

I mean oak trees ARE brown afterall.

Haha I love reading these comments. Everyone posting the negative comments are absolutely unhinged.

This car is a diamond in the rough. Take into account the location where it lived, the purpose behind it. 382k of those miles happened in the first 11 years of its life from 1993-2003 so the owner could run their very…

More payload than a 3/4 ton diesel crew cab.
