That’s... some weird gatekeeping.

You mean EVs aimed at people who love cars Vs EVs aimed at people who hate cars?

This is such a great example, especially because today a CRT would worth its considerable weight in gold.

That’s an extremely long, extremely wrong post. Regenerative breaking via motor-generator is absolutely nothing like engine breaking in an ICE. It can apply the amount of stopping power equal to your drivetrain output in controlled fashion. Your biggest limitation is battery charge rate/charge state.

A “get back coach” position is older then I thought.

Tesla would get a huge ROI if they spend $65K a year on a manager who’s sole job was to follow Elon everywhere with a spraybottle of icewater and blast him in the face every time he is about to say date of any sort.

The rest of the world doesn’t necessarily love them in so much as it’s a cheaper or often the only option.

That is “wild” and in stark contrast to other products that were newly developed and considered technologically advanced in early 20th century. I can scarcely wait for detailed critical comparison between business class accommodations on a modern airliner and…

The account, with the username @2020fight, was set up in December 2016 and appeared to be the tweets of a woman named Talia living in California. “Teacher & Advocate. Fighting for 2020,” its Twitter bio read. Since the beginning of this year, the account had tweeted on average 130 times a day and had more than…

What would you rather have: fast cars or more overtaking?

You could still shift (or not shift) if you wanted to...

Point taken. Cadillac perception:

The thing about Tesla is that they started on the high end by necessity; their goal has always been mass-market push. In a few years, Model S at current price point will be an afterthought responsible for single-digit percentage of the entire revenue akin to Avalon for Toyota. If GM looked at Tesla and EV market and…
