This is going to sound overly cynical but:

I think its actually smaller than a Civic on the inside.

You’ve got the same flavor of dyslexia that I’ve got.

So, rolling coal is the equivalent of farting those sticky wet *green* farts after eating oily refried beans?

The seats are bolted into rails on the floor under the carpet. They can literally be slid anywhere and bolted down again. Even the lights/vents/O2 panel above the seats are as flexible. There’s a filler panel between each of the seat panels and those can be adjusted with the seating.

Fact: Bears eat beets.

Well bully for Delta and the poor saps who put up with this. I’m not flying Delta with this policy in place. What you’re basically saying is that you have previously paid for an amenity you never used, but got angry when other passengers took advantage of that amenity that they also paid for. That’s like getting angry…

Here’s how I approach the issue: The seat is made to recline. That is an amenity you’re paying for, and you’re also paying to accept a seat being reclined in front of you. The space granted by an upright seat in front of you is nice, but not guaranteed, nor is it “yours”. Its like getting an open seat next to you, its…

My dad did something sorta similar with a Volvo XC70 a few years back. Although not as successfully.

This is the right direction.

I never had any issues with chain shops for oil changes. At least until they started asking me how many miles my cars had on them.

But they’ve been fighting electrical transformer fires and structure fires with 480v 3-phase power (and higher!) to them for longer than 100 years.

If the occupants are out of the car (or extracted) from the car, the fire department can make the judgement call as to try to extinguish the fire, or just let it burn itself out.

No. EV’s are designed with first responder rescue activities in mind. If first responders are going to be using tools to cut occupants out of a vehicle, they’re using things like the Jaws of Life (hydraulically actuated spreaders/cutters), gas powered metal saws and other high powered tools. Screw the upholstery and…

Wait, did he point out that she wasn’t supposed to bring up John McCain?

Typical bridgist attitude that the media has...

As the three commenters before me have rightly stated, trucks hit the steel crash bar in front of the bridge, so there’s no damage to the bridge.

The difference is that you know you violated the rules, you know you have those unpaid fines.

If Tesla sold access to its charge network to other competitors (which I believe they are set up to do), it would be a revenue generator for pretty low overhead.

Sure, but so far, no other car company *has* done what Tesla’s done for less money. The competition is definitely looming, but Tesla isn’t exactly sitting on their hands either...
