So. Um. Given the last paragraph?
Maybe change the headline or first line to: Tesla owners are the worst drivers on the road, as they somehow make what Consumer Reports rated as the most safe car, into the least safe. I mean, I think that’s an interesting phenomena.
And much more interesting, finally, than the rest of…

The fact that it is required to engineer and implement a mechanical “back up” suggests to me that it is absolutely not cheaper or more cost effective to go with electronic door pulls.

After all that work, it’s still the second best electric truck in that picture...

I can smell the inside of this thing from Sacramento.

Maybe we don’t need to drop out little darlings off directly at the school’s door. I get that not every family lives where it’s possible for them to get their kids to school on foot or bike, where school bus service (for public schools) might be inconvenient, and that some kids are a little young to send them on…

Okay, everybody say it with me now:

They’re driven by stupidity, not logic.

You totaled 12 Teslas just by saying this.

This. The DeLorean is a beautiful design and begs to be swapped in any way one can find. An EV conversion seems almost too perfect for it.

Man, I don’t want a Tesla, but a wrecked Tesla makes a hell of a donor car. 

*to the tune of “circle of life”

Here’s a vote for keeping a two-pilot flight crew. And Airbus is pushing EASA for single-pilot flight decks.

Those gold rims on the 4R are sweet though.

Wheels extending beyond fenders are definitely illegal in the state of Washington - yet we still have a ton of brodozers here violating that, and about zero enforcement even in the very politically blue western half of the state. Go figure.

There’s a big difference between taking the engine up to the rev limiter, and actual over-revving which can only really be caused by downshifting.

That’s my thought, too. I’m not blaming owners like Peter, but Hyundai. At least they made good by him but nothing makes up for the frustration and time lost.

If I could sell back a portion of my sick time, or got paid out for it if I leave, I would probably use less of it. Like you had, I currently have about 240 hours banked. It’s kind of a balancing act of deciding how much of this paid benefit I want to use, and being prepared if a serious medical problem arises that…

“Jalopnik may receive a commission for any vehicles purchased via this article”

Yeah, doesn’t seem like much of a discount when you can get a new one (different trim) for less.

I mean, it couldn’t possibly be due to anything management is doing... right? No reason to take an introspective look at their management practices, or how their insane CEO treats them.
