Or just carry your wall adapter with you. Most are pretty small these days.

Exactly. I almost never charge my phone when I’m away from my house because I charge it every night. Cars have such good range these days. The vast majority of people wouldn’t use 25% of their charge in a single day. We really only need public chargers on major through ways for long trips. Chargers in public parking

Why would I get the motortrend app? I already have like 4 streaming services. Put it on hulu, netflix, or prime and maybe I’ll watch it. Youtube would be even better. Surely they could monetize top gear on youtube enough to support the show.

Honestly, I think they just keep doing what they’re doing. Audi, Porsche, GM, and Ford already are headed in a good direction.

By “scan” you mean take a picture of? I mean, they had to do that to issue me a passport and they just did that last week so I could renew my license. Not sure what freedom has to do with this.

Wait, no one, in your family wants a drone? Does your family hate fun? Your dad sounds cool.

Lol! Yeah... Because no one dreamed about having a fast, powerful car before the big bad car companies told them it was fun. Sheep all of us for wanting to go fast.

Right... Because everyone driving faster than you is driving Too Fast. Please stay out of the left lane.

Now imagine if they didn’t get special funding from the FIA just for showing up. Jesus.

Lol! We’re not talking about a hellcat here. You can certainly use 350 hp in a small SUV without going too wild. No one is bragging about the sub 400hp they have under the hood.

Ah right. that makes sense. I can see the mat least getting some foot holds in some southern cities. Maybe they can then use those examples to convince other cities that initially won’t allow races.

Street circuits and stadium races will never happen. As it is existing race tracks are merely tolerated. See Miami Old Person Committee against F1 (and fun).

No one is maintaining warehouses in china to ship stuff to the United States. Struggling to see your point here.

Agreed, but it doesn’t take one million pounds of force to pull one million pounds horizontally. I can see them pulling with that strap. Slowly, but I think it would work.

It’s obvious the cybertruck can pull an F-150 150ft down the road. We just saw a video doing it. My point is it tells us nothing about the practical capabilities of the truck like range under load and heat management, just like any other truck tug video.

They are all reasonable assumptions though.

Exactly. Until it passes that test, I’m not impressed. It’s just another half-baked prototype.

I think it’s meaningless because it doesn’t show how long it can pull a load for, only that it can yank a 2WD F-150 150 ft down the road. Yep, an EV with a 1500 lb battery pack, half of which is over the rear wheels, can yank an F-150 with no weight over the rear tires. Big surprise.

Ick. I’d bet after a month you’ll reconsider charging on your way to work. One of the main benefits to electric car ownership is not having to stop for fuel on 95% of your trips. You’re holding yourself back by not taking advantage of that. I bet adding a single 240VAC outlet wouldn’t be as big of an issue as you

I don’t think gas will ever be much less expensive than it is right now. There is a minimum amount they have to sell it for or else it’s just not worth pumping out of the ground. For example, tar sand harvesting is expensive. If gas get’s much cheaper than it is right now, they simply won’t drill for tar sand oil.
