Just saw that Tesla stock has popped over 10% today, which sounded crazy considering it was already up about 8% versus a week ago before today, AND quarter sales dropped 5% YOY!

I am serious.  And don’t call me Shirley.

This is actually absurd that Jalopnik would even post this.... I will no longer be supporting Jalopnik because this is just stupidity. First of all, the editor has no clue what he is talking about and has never driven in a competitive series in his life. Lance Stroll won every karting championship in North America and…

That’s what people said about his E30 conversion. And then his idea of starting a supercar company from Croatia of all places. Or his attempt to supply battery systems to world’s fastest cars.

WTF, really? A “thermometer” is a device that measures temperature. “Thermo”, “meter”. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermometer  Are you really saying that, if it doesn’t have mercury in it, it’s not a “thermometer”? Of course there are different kinds of thermometers, including mercury but also many others,…

That sucks and all, but Toxic Rocket Drop sounds like a really sick skate trick.

EVs with eleventy-billion horsepower and instant acceleration. What could possibly go wrong in the hands of the unwashed masses, even when they are working properly - never a given with a Tesla product.

It’s been a while since physics for me, but I agree that the mass is hardly a factor here because it’s already such a big disparity even with a smaller car. It’s not an F=MA equation, it’s an inelastic collision equation.

Something tells me Spencer has also used the words ‘should have complied with police’ when reacting to yet another unarmed person being shot.

Communists in cars getting coffee

And this “genius” is worth $45billion? Gimme a break.

Police identified the driver of the Subaru Forrester as Benjamin Hylander, an

“It can fly”

Er - the sort of tires fitted to Bugattis and other hypercars that can go 250mph+? Not like THAT is all that unusual these days for Billionaire’s wheeled codpieces. IIRC, they cost $50K+ per set, but whatevs, the billionaire set has money to burn.

The best convertible to buy is one that someone else has already taken the initial depreciation hit on.

HF is the scariest shit I’ve ever been around. Post-doc I went to grad school with said they kept a bone saw in their lab near the HF. If enough spilled on your hand, for example, it travels up the bone, releasing Ca2+, and you’re dead without quick intervention. Bone saw would stop it, but in a terribly horrifying…

What’s the reason for police to need to be driving ON the actual beach, a place where people are likely to be lying down in the sand and difficult for a truck to see?

Yes. They get paid from the time the door closes to when it opens. Same with the pilots.

Donald Trump is an ignorant racist misogynistic bloviating orange windbag who is utterly incapable of speaking a single grain of truth. He is a petulant man-child who whines insufferably and incessantly when things don’t go his way. He cannot accept fault. That he was allowed within 10 miles of the White House at all…
