I want to take that journey with you...but that chicken is soooo good!

Fuck Musk and fuck Tesla. We were their target market and need a replacement set of wheels. Won’t even consider them now. We don’t spend our money with businesses with policies that skew right-wing crazy. Hobby Lobby, the Chicken place, Walmart and many others completely lost our business years ago. Tesla, thanks to…

A LOT easier to build SSDs and hard drives than cars. Cleaner factories, more spacing for workers, a facility that REQUIRES a high level of cleanliness due to what they make.

“But instead he acted like a fool. Do you think it worked?”

“I keep hearing that the car market in general is undergoing some massive crisis, but prices I’m seeing don’t seem to be that changed.”

Theyre totally fucked. Airlines, which have never closed, are down ~95% domestically year over year. They wont be coming back anytime soon.

Bummer. Hertz is decent.

Because glossy black plastic trim is cheap and lazy. It’s only in the last 10-15 years that it’s become commonplace. When it’s clean, and in photos, it gives the car an aura of modernist appeal. But the realities of day-to-day car use mean tons of dust and smudges. And yes you can clean it, but it will be dirty two…

I hate the piano black interior trim on my car and I'm not sure why Mercedes would use it since it isn't a premium material. The fingerprints are annoying but the biggest problem is sun reflecting into my eyes off the trim. I would guess potential s class buyers would feel the same way. 

EW. The shiny black interior bit thing needs to end. This glossy black shit is usually plastic (despite the fancy marketing name ‘piano black’). And in the upper end cars where it’s actually wood, it ends up looking like plastic anyway.

Ben Franklin thought disease was caused by vapors and an upset of bodily humours.  He might not be the go to guy in a viral pandemic.

Yes, those are quarterly dividends. So you get four of those $300 checks a year, although for some reason the charts only show the dividends in April, August and October, so that’s only 3 checks a year instead of four.

Tesla is doing just fine.

Comparing stock prices is completely meaningless as the number of outstanding shares is different for each company. Compare market cap, units, revenue, growth, or something else meaningful.

If you actually cared to find out if Trump was racist, you’d have clicked that Vox link. Every single claim they make is backed up by non-Vox sources, with links in the article. At least one of them ends with Trump saying “What was written about me was probably true”.

Who put you in charge of what’s a “legitimate issue”?

Same. I’ve not been a huge fan of any of the models but I was pretty stoked when I saw the Model Y. It fits with what I need and want and within the budget I’ve planned.

My MIL got her deposit back after the PedoGuy bullshit.  She’d had it.

He's pushed me away from their cars.  I withdrew my pre-announcement Model 3 deposit, and I'm hoping the Polestar 2 is okay (because my softening to the 3 and Y has been undone by his COVID nonsense).  The dude should really just shut up and play with his ultra-scale toy rockets and remote control cars.

He also refers to the public health officer as “unelected”, which is something only Republicans tend to do. In their world, it’s better to have an elected idiot over a unelected expert.
