I’ve always found it weird that people concern themselves with what other people are buying. I have a truck. It’s really no one’s business other than my own as to why I have a truck. I don’t need to justify it to anyone else. These same questions never get asked of people with sports cars or people with motorcycles.…

As a doctor who has been dragged through plenty of unforeseen long cases, what he did is absolutely not ok. He says something at the end about surgery not always going as planned, probably implying he didn’t think the case would take so long. However, if that is the case, it’s his job to call in a second surgeon to…

He was trying to say he was too important to let some stupid speeding ticket interfere with giving Mrs. Jones some botox. It was a power play. I hope he gets his drivers license AND his medical license suspended for a while for that stunt.  He seems too reckless for either.

Eh, sounds like victim blaming a touch. Things we know:

1st: The long charge time of EVs exasperates the too-few-charger issue. This is particularly problematic around holidays when people are traveling the most. It doesn’t really matter that you can charge in your garage if you can’t charge in public when you need to. There are always stories of Tesla superchargers…

55kW charging is an issue for road trips, but for most people with charging at home it’s not really an issue 350 days of the year. It will still make an excellent commuter car with very low running costs, that is pretty comfortable.

there are 17.6 football fields to the mile. 7 football fields = 4/10ths of a mile.

In her case, AutoPilot probably saves a life or two every time she gets behind the wheel. 

My thoughts exactly.

They clearly didn’t choose the AM General because they were worried it had too much baggage. I mean, look at that face - this thing has seen some shit

As Bloomberg also quotes an analyst who says that Tesla is “demand constrained, rather than production constrained,” which is a polite way of saying that Tesla could be halting production of Model 3s because buyers simply aren’t there.

2nd Gear - I’m trying to think of another job where you can actively show distain for your actual responsibilities and still stay employed like you are. Maybe one of those shitty insult diners I’ve seen in Chicago and other cities where you’re paying to have shitty service. Why even post about Tesla stock status if…

You can already tow with some EVs, fwiw.

Even if they didn’t ban ICE cars, with current trends, think how soulless, lifeless, analytical, bubbly, and shitty every car is gonna be in 9 years. Think of cars in the year 2000. Now picture the current endless line of silver/white/black identical SUV crossovers at your local grocery store. The trend is bad.

Oh for fucks sake - we just spend 4 years watching what happens when a lunatic runs the government via the ‘shoot from the hip, then refuse to ask any questions’ approach. It wasn’t good.

And this is why every manufacturer, including one in California that people either love or hate, are really not something to invest in, at least long term.

What is not intuitive for an automotive journalist doing a review over a few days becomes intuitive for actual owners over a few weeks of acclamation.

“This incident could have had a much worse ending”

(Airline pilot here if you have questions) Well, yes this is true, although trivially true of any incident. The danger shown here is that, unlike an engine failure which is a rather benign problem as long as it’s handled properly, the biggest threat is damage to…

Perpetually annoys me that the completely vaporware, nothing companies on Wall Street like Lucid, Nikola, etc. take up all the air in the EV sphere and then knock down legitimate companies on their way. I’ll do some free consulting for these hedge funds: those companies are never, ever going to make it. Workhorse, on…
