I’m clicking “Don’t show stories from Jalopnik” on my Google home page feed. It’s not that I’m some Tesla fanboi, but it seems like all this webpage writes about is Musk hate. I just don’t care and it’s taking up space where things that are newsworthy, or at least interesting to read, could appear. Bye now.

SO WHAT. I can see a SINGLE Smart Car from space. This “oversight” isn’t because they don’t know better either. At this point Jalopnik is just posting articles to attack Musk. I’m no big Musk fan, but bashing Tesla every week because you don’t like Musk is getting old. And that’s saying something coming from a guy tha

Again,MATH is hard. 386,810 sold 1st quarter, divide by 90 days=4,297 daily sales rate. 46,561 divided by sales rate of 4,297 means 10.83 days supply on hand. The closest competetor (Toyota) has 39 days on hand. You will twist anything around to spread FUD about Tesla. RAM has 229 DOH, over 20X Tesla. Maybe if you

The level of hatred this site has for Tesla knows no bounds.

To be fair, you can see literally everything from space unless it’s a cloudy day. 

I mean, I can see my Tesla in my driveway from space as well. Has no one used Google maps? 

In a sane world no one would use silly “seen from space” hyperbole to criticize a fledgling automaker that is leading the world, not only in EV’s, but in vehicles of any type. 2023 Model Y sales were *double* that of the Toyota Camry, nevermind being the best-selling vehicle of any type (gas, electric, sedan, truck,

Can we stop it with these constant inflammatory stories?  Is someone from ALEC or some other oil company sponsored think tank writing them?  You’re creating FUD.

This is really not a Tesla-Only thing. Anytime a company introduces an entirely new model there will be first-year quality control issues. Yes- that goes for Toyota too: The latest model Tundra had issues with timing chains detonating and the new Tacoma was recently featured on a Youtube video where the differential

Everybody loves this?! Am I the only one who immediately thought “Yugo”?!

Listen, I understand national security is a concern, but a lot of this just feels like the U.S. government keeping good cars from our market for the sake of protecting U.S.-based automakers.

No hate from me. The Model Y is awesome. If it wasn’t out of my price range it’d be a lot more tempting. Drove in a friend of a friend’s all over California and it was excellent. The prices for gently used Mavericks are finally coming down, and it looks like I’d be able to pick up a lightly used one for right around

As a person who is “five-foot-nine,” that sounds like it wouldn’t be too much of a problem. I appreciate the information very much! I don’t think I’d ever want to stick a person between my kids anyway, so I don’t think that will ever come up. As long as there is enough room for the driver and passenger, it sounds like

It’s not mysterious. If you’ve been following Tesla’s earnings calls and Musks statements on the matter the use for these it’s obvious, they’re trying to replace human workers in factories for jobs that require fine motor skills, object identification, and other general use cases. There are still 100s of millions of

I am still in the industry and I think you are correct that they could not roll back the update before the maintenance window expired.

Yeah. Xi is wonderful. 

It lowers T, which can have effects like lowered sex drive, fatigue, and weight gain, among others. 

I am so glad someone posts this in every single article about Crypto bullshit.

The Santa Cruz has been selling above MSRP and is fully sold out. The Maverick has been selling above MSRP and is fully sold out. Until the demand backlog for anything with 4 wheels is resolved, it’ll be really hard to tell what’s a “success” and what’s not.
