What’s keeping up the Tesla share price? I have a *really* horrible suspicion that its retail investors who are Tesla fanbois, sure that the current lows are simply a minor blip, and that soon the shares will be soaring back up to the $340 mark. (It’s been bumping up and down in the $260 to $290 band for a while now,…
“What Tesla did eventually was just co-develop their battery factory with Panasonic. This gives them a lot more stability in producing batteries without relying on another company for this vital part.”
Well, it certainly got them battery cells at below cost. Thank to Tesla’s lower than planned production rates,…
And the tunnel’s still 35% bigger than the Piccadilly Line’s subway tunnels in London.
“Pretty much everyone alive now has a better than even chance of seeing their 200th birthday.”
Foe people with Musk money perhaps.
“Life expectancy gap between rich and poor US regions is ‘more than 20 years’”
The tunnels are 35% *bigger* than the Piccadilly Line’s (part of the London Tube) or of the Glasgow Subway.
And they’re still larger than London’s Piccadilly Line.
Boring Company claims that it tunnels cheaper by having smaller tunnels than subway systems do, at only 13m to 14m in diameter.
Meanwhile, Glasgow’s subway, and the Piccadilly Line of London’s Tube system, use 11m tunnels.
You can get rolls of solar panel, built on plastic sheet rather than thick glass.
100W+ for 3lbs, so a domestic fast charger’s worth would weigh about 200lbs.
Ah yes - when Ford USA re-designed every part of the Escort to ensure that the world car was anything but.
The Fit/Jazz and the Fiesta both seem like they were developed on a budget. The budget seems to have gone into seat-rearrangements and engine reliability in the Fit/Jazz, and into ride and handling and the I3T engine on the Fiesta. Oh, and never buy an automatic Fiesta. Just... no.

“I think all of EVgo’s network is currently capped out 50kW.”
EVgo has 350kW chargers live, as we speak.
“Can EvGo & Chargepoint stations guarantee at least 120kw per car, if every stall is being used?”
Tesla only guarantees 34kW in that situation.
CCS guarantees 50kW in that situation.
“The Taycan can charge faster than Supercharger V3 cars, but good luck finding a fast-charge station.”
Electrify America currently has over 60% coverage in the continental US for High Power Chargers.
Vrexit means Vrexit, surely?
Next step - the Chevrolet BUV.
It expels fluids, not solids. And it’s down at the tip of a long tube.
So it’s the [urinary] meatus. Not the anus.
Of course, if all you are expelling are diesel soot solids, then it’s an anus.
Thus proving definitively that coal-rollers are arses.
And there’s already High Power Charging for it covering 60% of the continental USA. Ideal for that New Brunswick to Utah drive.
Perhaps you didn’t read my post:
“EVgo have about 1,000 US locations.
ElectrifyAmerica have almost 200 US locations [130 HPC locations] .
Chargepoint have hundreds and hundreds. [by which I meant, US locations]
Greenlots have a few hundred fast charger locations [in the US].
For comparison, Tesla have 600 US…
