Exactly. I’ve been an electrician for decades. The whole “you might have to modify the panel” is a bit dramatic, and in 99.9% of cases, simply not true. reality is that most will pull the panel cover, run a cable from the charger to panel, snap a 2 pole breaker in and land 3-4 wires. Not a job for a clueless beginner,

I’m comfortable with most household electrical work, but for that personally I’d get a professional, I know I could do it but I’d prefer someone more experienced working with setting up higher voltage wiring.

Cheap/Good/Safe

I still contest that they would sell the snot of of something like this in the US if it could be federalized (it probably can’t, blah blah blah safety).

That may be the best selling EV but I don’t think it’d be the best selling car overall. If for no other reason than Tesla has a hard time ramping up production numbers.

ehhhh, its 90s style, so I like. But these are better.

All of the above?

This is why people tolerate Tesla’s poor build quality and Elon’s antics: NO DEALERS!!!!!

The number of stories I’ve heard of “I wanted to test drive a (insert Volt, Bolt, or ELR) and they tried to sell me a (insert Cruze, or more-typically SUV/truck)“ are depressing to me. It’s almost astounding the willful ignorance most dealers gave to these and how many first time GM-curious folks were turned away. I

Wait, so a Jalopnik author posted misleading info because they didn’t bother to read up on the facts?

I don’t see any of these “near t-bones” as an issue, personally.

then, at the next intersection, we watch the Cruise Bolt almost hit a Toyota SUV

That charming family on bikes is a bunch of morons. And who lets their kid run stop signs? Cyclists like this are why city cyclists get a bad rap.

I can appreciate it even if I can't afford it.  

The base model EV2 is twice the price of a base Cybertruck, and a fully tricked out Cybertruck with Autopilot and triple motors is still cheaper than the base model. I’m sure Tesla will be fine.

Can’t wait to wrap mine matte green and mount a turret in the bed.

You may call me Master Chief.

The Cybertruck makes the Cybertruck look like an angular silver turd.
