Meanwhile ICE trucks be going 500+ miles on a tank of gas...

I mean... I guess my Kona EV is just a freak of nature then lol. Never seen that much of a drop in warm weather with AC on in like 70-80 degree weather with AC set to like 67...

I don’t understand why it’s so commonly referred to as a fake sound, from everything I’ve read, what you’re hearing is actual sound coming from the electric motor, just piped through an exhaust system that makes it sound louder. To my knowledge there is no speaker at all.

By what metrics are Vipers not great cars? Luxury and technology? Gas mileage? Daily-drivability? Ok, sure, maybe not so great.

All the Alfa Romeo owners may have simply been stuck on the side of the road and unable to respond to the survey.

Where the fuck does Chevy get off delaying the hell out of the Silverado EV and then, oh btw we’re DOUBLING the price such that the fucking stripper model comes in at $80 large?

Bu bu but I was personally guaranteed by Elon that my car would appreciate in value because I’d be making money by now if I bought a Tesla as it would be doing autonomous Uber trips for me while I slept! It’s supposed to pay for itself.

I despise Elon Musk and all he touches, but this isn’t really a ding against Tesla, IMO. So long as you are extracting value from what you have purchased, depreciation is a purely academic concern. If you pay price X for a car, and own it for years Y, is the value of X divided by Y an acceptable rate to pay for having

Also, fucking hell, 9.6 cents/kWh is cheap as hell... I pay like 13 cents/kWh in WA, one of the cheaper places in the US...”

At least 2 or 3 songs on this list are actually good covers though.

Shut up. 

yes, this truck is significantly dumber than a functional vehicle that has been a best seller for nearly 50 years

Is it just me or do these things look less and less polished as they’re (allegedly) getting closer to production? Seriously, the one in that video looks like a 1oth grade metal-shop project.

I’m surprised that Tesla used a real latch on this.  Shouldn’t it be something that is opened after going 6 menu’s deep on the tablet?

Car insurance is a product you are forced to buy if you want to drive on US roads, the companies that sell insurance are not all that well regulated, and they can arbitrarily decide to jack up insurance rates or even choose to not cover certain car models as seen here. They also do absolutely everything they can to

Plus there may be other factors influencing this decision, such as her address (the rate of claims in her neighborhood), and the driving record of all the people covered under her policy. There is a lot going on here.

Just because Kias are difficult to insure doesn’t mean that insurance in general is a scam, or that

Yeah she’s got it wrong. She didn’t just give them free money like she said, she gave them money for the specific time of her contract and had she had a claim they would have paid. She didn’t have a claim, but that doesn’t mean she got nothing out of it.

“She quickly realized that insurance is, in fact, a scam”

I’ve had a Model 3 Performance for a year and a half now and I love it to death. That said, the Cybertruck is the dumbest ****ing thing. It looks bad at everything, on top of being fugly. It kills me that the resources of a company with such potential are being squandered so senselessly. 

Every angle is stupid looking.
