Yeah man the whole problem is that we’re in an unsustainable situation. Something’s gotta give, and those companies can either find a way to pay more and risk going out of business, or they’re going to go out of business because they can’t find truckers with a clean driving record and someone inexperienced gets someone…

“ when robots replaced all of these fast food workers? Yeah, I don’t either.”

Based on what we’ve seen from journalists test driving actual trucks off road and the predominantly glowing reviews we’ve seen in return? I’m extremely confident Rivian will deliver on their promises - and if their existence is a kick in the ass to the legacy automakers and the ICE trucks now repurposed as EVs that…

Your logic is flawed. The other 70% is not one single cause, it is a mixture of many causes. This is more accurate:

Tired driving can be just as dangerous as drunk driving.

No its not and blaming “The media” is about the most worn-out and frankly lazy excuse. Anyone who has cracked open a history book could very easily make frightening comparisons between the likes of Hitler, Mussolini and a whole host of other leaders who used the same playbook, building a cult of personality around…

Everyone keeps saying that the other luxury brands will eventually beat Tesla and drive them out of the market. If quality mattered so much, Toyota would have taken over GM in a normal year and Jeep would have become a niche brand decades ago. With a diehard fan base and multiple factories/expanded lineup ahead, hard…

You are setting up a false dilemma. Why not give customers access to other networks even if they were inferior to the supercharger network? It just gives them more flexibility. For the same reason, Tesla includes a J1772 adapter and their Mobile Connector allows easily adapting to all sorts of NEMA sockets (which is…

“Where Tesla only has 1266 charging ports in the US”. That’s incorrect. They have that many stations in the US, they have far more charging ports than that as each station averages around 10 stalls per station.

He's identifying the client's class in the hierarchy.

Yep.  I can guess why they let the little shit slip away though.

Too white to be charged as an adult, I suspect.

I’ll never understand this. Its like walking around carrying a suitcase everywhere you go, just in case you might need to move something.

Having a truck is nice. Using a truck is nice. Driving a truck is miserable.

I’ll tell you what it is.

Re EV charging: I think the business model will bifurcate into two: 

First of all, Jalopnik is like 3 days late to this. Ive seen this posted everywhere.

1. No way in hell they are going to meet ICE bans in the timeframes established.

When the Model S came out, it could charge at 72kw and had a range of 260 miles at a cost of $100k.

“Tesla was selling virtually the same Model S it does now 8.5 years ago.”
