Absolutist bullshit sounds great when you’re a populist shill on the campaign trail, but it’s literally the reason we have the phrase “perfect is the enemy of the good”

You couldn’t do this in a Yukon because it’s too big.  The back end would slam into the nearest middle school. Doesn’t matter how far away. It’ll happen.

Maybe for the next model, they can make it more rectangular, bigger, and with an even bigger grill. 

This is cool, but seems kind of unnecessary and pointless.

Correct.  Ask Audi.

Yes, it shocked the hell out of me so I looked down and realized my foot was on the wrong pedal. User error, I was 19.

Its cheaper and quicker to pay everyone off to STFU than to drag litigation on for years and keep the bad publicity in the news.

I would.  In any corporation of that size it’s worth the money just to avoid having lawyers and regulators nosing around your papers, even if you did nothing wrong.  

“Plus the whole “worker suicide” thing was like ten years ago. No one today working in a Foxconn factory was even born back then.”

1st:  I didn’t “intend” for the car to accelerate that damned quick that I lost control of it.  

My guess is that the people complaining didnt understand the acceleration that a Tesla has and accidentally crashed into a phone pole

The wrong glass for the windshield, that’s what makes this thing unsafe. I knew it was something but I couldn’t really pin it down

No. He wants to wrap it with business advertising so customers and potential customers will see it. Something weird and maybe expensive and unreliable does not make the impression he wants to make.

The only right answer (ok the Kia is a good one too)

There’s only so much you can do with this premise. The dude needs a van - just get a van. The whole point, as I see it, is really just to get the comments section going.

It needs to be somewhat boxy as it will be an advertising platform. All your commuters are out. Hence why Tom still went with the small Soul.

I get rated range in the summer, and about 70% of it in the winter. The battery and cabin heaters suck down electrons. One of the upsides of a gas engine is it wastes so much energy that the heat is free.

That is the sensible easy way out, the David Tracy way will involve a lot of time, strangers taking pity, and blood loss, hence the enjoyment.

Fix the Golden Eagle!

It’s not just a shitbox, it’s YOUR shitbox.
