The most important part of the announcement - that the price of the package is increasing by $2,000. For a system that’s NOT fully self-driving. The cost is now $10,000 for the package.

Good news! Now the driver’s hands are freed up to hold the roof on.

Has Tesla programmed it to Avoid this when playing Harry Potter Movies?

Neutral - Carvana isn’t a manufacturer selling new cars, Tesla is.
Big difference in new car dealership franchise laws/requirements and used car re-sellers.

There’s a tiny bit of safety logic to battery trucks, too. Which is why they should not just be encouraged, but mandated once the tech gets to a certain point.

Aimed in the right direction, crackheads can be very industrious.

“Luckily, this time Tesla had a loyal employee who wasn’t swayed by greed and who did the right thing.”

The renders for this are horrible (No suspension height, no tie downs, no door openings, no passenger bulkheads, or anything else that actually matters on a van).

What do you think? I think it’s interesting that Mercedes-Benz has designed and built a vehicle so specifically targeted (or maybe limited) to a market, even if it is a very large market. It’s very rare that a company looks at the customer with any sort of technological or material discipline these days, as the…

According to Mercedes-Benz market research of cargo van drivers, the average daily mileage of a van in Europe is just around 60 miles...“it’s aimed primarily at businesses conducting multi-drop ‘last-mile’ deliveries in urban areas...

the article explains the market pretty well, you’re clearly not it. 

I definitely think people underestimate the value of like minded people living around you. My friends in California are mostly all about pushing their careers forward and starting new companies. Back in Michigan most are focused on raising a family and hunting/fishing/drinking on the weekends. Both are perfectly valid…

It’s not just the weather. I moved out of metro Detroit 10 years ago to somewhere with arguably worse weather, even though my dad (and a few of his brothers, and some friends of mine) work at the Big 3, because the whole metro area is depressing as fuck, is difficult to get around, everyone walks around with a chip on…

I had an offer with GM when I graduated in 2000, I’ll never forget when one of the interviewers pointed out the window of their downtown building and said “If you look to the south you can see Canada” all I could think was I’m going to be living north of Canada.  The loss of my “brain” was probably of little…

“How about just renaming it to General Shitboxes Sponsored by JD Powah, there Pauch?”

“5th Gear: Should GM Be Called Ultium?”

For good reason, they are miserable to own. Mine was in the shop over a dozen times in the two years I owned it. Also good luck fitting in the seats if you’re shaped like a normal human. Happiest day of my life was the day I sold it.

They can count to 13, it’s how many fingers or toes some of them have.

It’s been wild to watch the contortions the cavalcade of dipshits denying this have been putting themselves through each step of the way. The latest is saying “WELL ACTUALLY NOOSES HAVE 13 LOOPS, SO THIS IS FINE” as if the fucking Cletus making threats like this is capable of counting to 13.
