Beyond that, this is closer to alpha testing, except that it has been released to the public. They are still trying to program it to work in normal use cases, not just work out bugs discovered in edge cases.

Sometimes I wonder how many lawsuits would come pouring in at Tesla if Elon were to finally publicly admit that “FSD” will never actually be full self driving… 

The worst thing you can be to other drivers is "surprising". And this thing is surprising its own driver. Feels like a bad sign

I can’t imagine any carmaker trying to get away with something like this today”

I should’ve stopped reading the first time Erin offered excuses for criminal behavior. But I kept reading and found more of it.

You really don’t understand why someone with $100K to spend on a car might choose a Mercedes Benz rather than gamble on the first car from a startup? The 500+ mile range Lucid is $140K to start by the way.

Another dumb click baity headline... In what universe is the everest better than the bronco? It neither looks better or performs better. Besides having more seats, than the bronco, it literally has 0 advantage over the bronco. Looks or performance the bronco is much better.”

Umm, fixed roof? Lower price? Quiet interior? Better fuel economy? Seats 7? ...so yeah, zero advantage.  

I feel like this is a clarion call to good writers to write more and to providers of content to pay those writers. As someone who works in PR, I know how easy it is to get darn near anything published by doing the writing and providing the content for free.

A bad take on Jalopnik?  Unheard of.

Good god this is a bad take...
