They thought it back then, too, but they figured they might as well ride TSLA as long as it earned them money. I think that’s what they’re supposed to be doing, after all.

It is a whale, so I say embrace it.

I remember hearing about it and being vaguely confused about what it was going to be for, and then the second time I used it I found a site with information about the Lancia Fulvia (including production numbers and all the internal model codes for the engines). Then it all made sense to me!

And it will be sold in similar numbers...

I sure hope someone saved this video, because it’s gone, and the Hon. J. Cedric Simpson’s video feed appears to be private now.

My driveway averages out at 26.7 years. Not much of a sample, I’ll admit. Also, it may very well be that newer cars are driven more than older ones, so the cars you see in traffic would tend to be somewhat younger. Also, something something about urban elites.

I always carry cash for gas. It’s not that hard, as long as I manage not to frivolously spend it on god-knows-what in the interim. Usually, gas stations with the same price, cash or credit, are more expensive anyhow.

And if he doesn’t get to cash out, he can walk away and blame Tesla’s collapse on others.

Hahaha... we are both going to hell.

They aren’t meant to sail slower than necessary, they’re meant to sail at the precise speed which allows them to arrive when it is time to dock - instead of burning extra fuel to get there 10 hours early and then wait. Read it again.

How do they come up with the names for these items? They’re so clever.

Yep, lots of one-percenters here. :)

Totally. I approach it like a video game (a very unforgiving one).

But they’re not doing any of those things. They’re doing the opposite, as far as I can tell...

Yes, absolutely it is Musk’s own doing. It would be awesome if he’s ousted and Tesla manages to become a stable company without him. I guess the most likely outcome is that it would be bought by someone else, assuming the brand is not deemed irreversibly tarnished.

Yeah, it’s a ‘93, built in small numbers and never sold outside of Japan. It was sort of a joke lament (although the struggle is real).

He’s not playing four-dimensional chess, but I think that there is some reasoning behind his demands:

The driver’s seat in my 1993 Honda Today is wider than the passenger seat, so as to use the minimal available space most effectively. However, this means that there are no unworn driver’s seat squabs available, period.

It will be a museum display. Whoever buys it should take bets online for how long it will run before becoming irrepairable.

I will take the De Tomaso-fied Daihatsu Charade or Innocenti Mini instead, please.
