Even accounting for their aggressive overprovisioning they’re way behind Tesla in efficiency. It also makes sense to do it Tesla’s way and allow for occasional charges to 100% for road trips when you need that range since that causes only minimal wear if you’re doing it once or twice a year when you take a long road…

I don't know if it is "cutting corners" to not design a car to do a bunch of dumb shit nobody ever actually does.

As much as I like the new electric concepts by Audi and Porsche, the range is a deal killer for me

Most laughable is the bit about long-term battery health as if Audi gives a fuck about reliability outside of their warranty.

Don't apologise for shit Hogan. You spoke the truth and Audi fed you marketing garbage. Tesla for all their faults, has absolutely destroyed in battery and motor tech.

oh believe me. I know. it’s going to be a total shitshow.

Do you have any videos of launching?

“No, the white phone!”

That's the pilot that drives a BMW.

“Yeah hi, I’m to need you to go ahead and park on the street for the next 6 months. So if you can go ahead and do that, that would be great.”

I’m not exaggerating— probably 80% of the business case studies I studied in business school were about just this sort of short- sighted thinking where an executive decided to take safety and/or quality shortcuts to save a couple of bucks and it bit them in the rear. This is, literally, Business 101.

Yea, fair point, I hadn’t considered pre-delivery planes.

And just like modern BMWs, they are stuck in the shop with broken sensors that are waiting to be fixed by the manufacturer after being forced to admit they fucked up.

You lost me at no F-key row.

Done deals aren’t Trump’s forte.

I tip around 18% and I consider that generous. I’m not tipping a higher percentage than that unless the bill is very low (less than $30).

No.  It really isn’t.

I love working the “20% is the standard” into the copy as if this is fact. It’s not. Stop trying to make it happen.

stop it. nobody needs this “advice” nor does anyone need a link to another article on this website for dipshits

what about Superb Owl?
