One of the best ways to prevent deaths from accidents is to prevent the accident in the first place. This is solved with education. Make it MUCH more difficult to obtain a driver license, or make it a tiered system (as to not negatively affect the lower income brackets) where a beginner permit allows you to use…

I found LA insufferable when I was spending lots of time there. It’s as if you didn’t have a social life unless you bought into everyone’s bullshit, depending on the circles you’re in.

Agree valuations are through the roof but highly doubt the part about Toyota buying them out considering that Tesla is essentially breaking even while dumping billions into new factories, with automotive margins above even Porsche and rivaling Ferrari. Toyota is epitome of conservative - just look at how slow but…

I think Ford lost nearly $2B in Q4 2019. By comparison, Tesla did pretty well. 

It is NOT about the cars people. It is about building the infrastructure to make electric cars possible. If I was any other automaker looking into electric the first call would be to Tesla to see if I could use the super charging network. It is a game changer and validates the electric car concept. Other brands make…

You mean like they turned a profit during Q1 2020? And Q4 of 2019? And Q3 of 2019... They almost did so in Q2 and had COVID not happened almost certainly would.

As easy as it is to hate Tesla you have to give the company credit. The Model S has been available since 2012. They now have 4 models with a few more on the way. All of those available now are selling well. But at the end of the day, despite starting out as a totally new and unheard of company with zero experience…

I think that solves the issue: “you can stay home without fear of loosing your job but will forgo all income and benefits”.

Reduced headcount runs counter to the union goal of 3 people doing the job of 1.

because about 40% of this country has the emotional maturity of a toddler. 

West, north or south.

Right, I don’t see how the copyright holder would have any right to seize the vehicle. I can see having him take down the videos, but not seeing how it would result in the car being seized (couldn’t he take the parts and use it in another project?)

The conversation between host and guest was usually decent, occasionally quite good, but it was the cars that were truly transcendent.

I'm in Maryland and Teslas are everywhere.  I have 2.  The best cars ever made.

Definitely the most common single brand at this point across the greater Seattle area as well. 

If an asshole CEO stops you from buying a company’s products, then you must have quite a savings, and an empty house. 

even though those cars only have 20kish miles on them, those are some hard miles.

It doesn’t. Erin doesn’t know what the heck she is writing about. The package ships around 20lbs. That’s the weight of all of the components, including the calibration tool that you plug in momentarily to execute the new tune. To install the new throttle body, throttle body adapter, and CAI, you first have to remove…

I still say that it is a great car, betrayed by a high price.

I seem to be in the minority but i have always found the i8 to be a really good looking car. Used to be several in my Denver neighborhood and i loved them. Looked particularly good in deep blue, imo. Good luck!
