Because “you only ride like a Pacer if you’re wide like a Pacer.”

So typical, blame the victim.

I doubt they were just sitting there staring at the generator running. The driver may have been just a bit out of their range and only needed to run the generator for a few hours while they were doing other stuff anyway.

Yep, late 40's and have two close friends named Jeff in the same age bracket. None of my teenage kids know any so your extinction prediction looks plausible :-)

Mine might be too...

Did I miss something, is it a nuclear truck?

Subtle humor, a jab at BMW-heads who get all wound up about the numbering scheme. I love it! COTD all the way.

The 11 seconds is in the article. The other stuff you’re asking about is probably in the vehicle logs.

As I said twice in the posting this (IMO) is a minor example. However, it may be indicative of other areas where Tesla isn’t doing a good job simplifying their production and support processes.

This may be minor but it’s another instance of Tesla making things harder on themselves. Why bother to have different part numbers that need to be purchased, tracked, and inventoried when you can just use the same red one on all cars?

Could not agree with you more about Eddie, he doesn’t seem to add anything. Sabine would be good to keep as an occasional guest/presenter when the show is in Germany or reviewing German vehicles.

Never mind, I see that the link talks about the second crash.

Where’s the second crash? All I can see is the red car hitting what looks like a paint can with it’s tire.

It looks to me like there was some catastrophic failure and the plane is coming pretty much straight down and uncontrolled. Tough to watch.

Using your logic all bikers must by pycho’s too. It’s in the video so therefore must mean that all ride like that guy.

Put over 1000 miles on a four door Skoda hatchback on a trip in the UK last year. It was a great car.

The officer sounds a lot like one that pulled me over years ago. It was after a long week of work, stopping at Mcdonalds for a quick burger, and then driving slowly looking for an address I had never been to.

I drove a 1971 bright blue (very faded blue) 142 in college. My buddies loved the “pink pencil” speedometer. As we would very slowly get up to speed on the freeway there were always comments to the effect of “the pick pencil is getting hard”. Good times :-)

Also, once it’s mined the recycle-ability of lithium is very high.

“You fail to realize how much of the US energy comes from Coal or natural gas. How much of China’s electric cars run on extremely dirty electricity from horribly dirty power plants?”
