More or less?

They’re in the process of shutting it down.

There is a hell of a lot more than 200 years of data being used here....

NASA? No, that was the work of a Forbes right wing hack in an opinion piece.

I agree - and if you look at the ratings they have for Fords, they are generally VERY, VERY good until you get to “infotainment” - it isn’t the least bit unusual to see solid red “excellent” dots until that one segment, and then they rate the entire vehicle as a solid black.

That was a ridiculous response.

Name one business which has never once pulled a profit in its entire history, and racked up at least 12 years worth of losses.

Companies don’t have to make a profit all the time on every product to stay in business. They do have to at least break even over time, however.

Tesla isn’t making

Nope - that’s the National Center for Atmospheric Research’s Mesa Lab:

The applications are unlimited. Industrial for one. Let the engineers figure out a use for it. That’s not our concern.

I don’t care. I graduated.

Done.

He knows they’re losing massive amounts of money.

You’re too dense to understand this simple fact.

It’s pretty simple, bub... a business that never makes a profit doesn’t stay in business.

Tesla is losing massive amounts of money. There are no ifs, ands, or buts about it. The only way they’ve stayed in business is stock dilution through finding new people to throw their money into what seems to be a bottomless pit.

It isn’t just electric cars or North Carolina.

The hard right-wing legislature in Ohio (yes, they’re actually worse than many “red” states you hear about) just pushed a “study” that wanted to eliminate all renewable energy mandates in the state - mandates that overwhelmingly passed about 10 years ago.

Their reasoning?

What glorified golf-cart made in China or India can be bought in the US?

As for the Volt, no owner actually needs to charge to be able to make it home.

What exactly was that supposed to mean?

Tesla sold a bunch of stock to raise capital. They used the capital to pay back the government loans. That has NOTHING to do with profitability - that just means people are willing to invest in them despite massive losses.

Most turbos are controlled based on exhaust temperature and pressure - RPM will contribute to pressure boost, but not exhaust temp. As such, you can easily stay out of boost past 2000 rpm, but you have to control your demands on the engine.

Were these students in calculus? Because if so, this problem is EASY.

That wouldn’t be hard, considering that Tesla is losing massive amounts of money.

This sociopath’s ego gets bigger by the minute.

“tried-and-true Honda reliability”

You mean like an Odyssey, Accord, Civic, TL, CL, or Prelude with a self-destructing transmission?

1) They were built in Kansas City, not St. Louis. :)

2) If there is a recall, federal law requires that the repair be done at any time, no matter how long after the recall the owner brings the car in. Theoretically, you could take a 1949 VW Beetle into a dealership today and they would be forced to repair the
