1st Gear:

What you are missing is the Invisible Jet Trickle-Down Ecobombics, once you know how it works its clear the F35 is a benefit to us all.

We’ve given them decades with the carrot, now its time for the stick.

They already exist, just not in this country. Sadly anything small and reasonable and hatchback just gets canceled here. So while a $25k EV might exist, we will get the $30k-35k CUV EV instead.

Yeah, I am wondering if dealerships no longer having to sell whats on their lot can help with reducing the need to haggle on prices and offer customers what they want rather than whats nearby. It could really change the upfront costs of dealerships and turn them into something more like a showroom-only model.

I forgot about that episode of Mad Men, until now, thank you...

I agree with a lot said here.

Dude has a pair of those short-shorts and some tesla tequila. I worry drinking one will lead to wearing the other. Excessive is an appropriate description

I just took my S on a road trip that was ~2500 miles. The last 2 charging stops the plug was hard to press in and the latch wasnt engaging, and then also tough to remove the charger. Thought the first one was the adapter I picked, two in a row makes it seem like its my car. Coworker with a few Teslas says to check for

4th Gear,

I looked at getting wider tires for my i3, shame they are so tall, so you end up having to get truck tires or be careful with clearance to the ground. And there is no room between tire and suspension so all that width has to go outward and I would be worried about snapping something, the car is aluminum when its not

That range extender does not work like you think it does. For some reason in the states it only kicks in after the battery dies. Globally you could tell it to keep the battery at 75%. No clue why they messed that up so bad. Also its only 1.9 gallons because it needed to have less gas range than battery for certain

AV5 for highways is called AV4 (since is geofenced). I can definitely see that come out 3-5 years before true level 5 is ready and insurable.

Do a custom EV conversion.

Aww, you afraid your Tesla stock will take a hit if Jalopnik makes fun of the idiotic looks of the Cybertruck?

Price and features is making it seem like a Rivian competitor. The CT has 2 models 50k and under, the Rivian price starts basically where the CT ends. The CT is all about durability and toughness, while the Rivian is refined and luxurious with lots of little hidden gems of features. The only overlap seems to be that

Cant have a single EV article without taking a swipe at Tesla.

It sorta is a rather dumb list, also everything basically lines up with maybe a slight difference between them?

Filed under “Racing” instead of “Slideshow” or “Images”, so this was a bait and switch.

The logic bluntly shows how systemic racism exists in our judicial system from every angle you look at it. How much it exists might vary, but it very much does exist. Instead of looking at the chance of being kill vs struck by lightning or winning the lottery, just try comparing it between the baseline and its clear
