Squatted trucks. I don’t need to say anymore.....

“There are known knowns; there are things we know we know. We also know there are known unknowns; that is to say we know there are some things we do not know. But there are also unknown unknowns—the ones we don’t know we don’t know.” - Donald Rumsfeld

Exactly. If you think about it, most of these early adopters are Elon super fans, and unlikely to report in public about their issues with it. Even looking at these videos, many of these fails were only caught because someone else was there to film it.

I will keep saying this, we need some sort of consumers bill of rights here, features that are guaranteed to stay with the car, and those that can be pay walled at any time must be clearly spelled out. You have no protection if your TV maker decides to paywall showing a picture in color vs black and white tomorrow. …

No matter the actual cause of death, yeah, the optics are *really* fucking bad for Boeing.

If only a brave Whistle Blower would step up and share information about Boeing’s QA and safety practices... 

Exactly.

One of the emblematic traits of conspiracy theories (and theorists) is that they presuppose two things that are often incompatible: that whomever is in on the conspiracy is all-powerful and all-knowing (thus able to get done what they wany to get done), but they’re also so incompetent that they’re easy to…

Since no one else at G/O Media seems able to acknowledge it, maybe because you all (probably rightly) fear for your own jobs at this point, I’ll go ahead and say it:

Let’s just ignore the fact that we have been decimating the land and oceans by pumping oil for the last 130 years. Every ounce of diesel and gasoline needs to be drilled, pumped, refined, transported and used one time and turned into CO2 immediately after the energy is extracted in an ICE.

A whole new motor for the Charger—finally finishing the arduous process.

“I could care less about the damage done to the environment.” - Christ, what an asshole.  I, for one, care a fair amount about taking care of our environment.  My children have to live in this world.

Seriously, Occam’s Razor needs to be applied here.

Price, depreciation, battery wear (and the significant threshold before it’s warrantable), cold weather degradation, charger compatibility, and vehicle desirability are the primary factors holding us back from buying an EV.

I love how he mentions a bunch of glaring design and quality issues, including that he broke part of it the very first time he used it, but still compliments its “smart design” and “attention to detail.”  The truck doesn’t even have the “tent mode” the instructions say to activate!  I just don’t get the doublethink.

True to me. I drive either very short miles once a week or several thousand miles once a year. So thinking that my car would lost a lot of value every year due to these kinds of driving drives me away from EVs for the time being.

Relax kid, it’s a tongue-in-cheek comment related to one of the articles posted yesterday. You’ve got the entire internet at your disposal, go look it up. Or don’t, you’ve already ruined it.

Ah, okay. No, those things I certainly do not do. Politically speaking, I’m far left in the US, but even centrists on the Europe scale is a leftie liberal compared to the US political scene (where everyone seems to be cluttered at the very right).

Of all people you should be happy. This car went from concept to production in only two years.

“A Challenger outlast a Corolla”? Oh yeah, just like that time a Dodge Durango outlived a 4Runner.
