So, your friend made it home safely when he would have crashed in another car.  Got it.  AP SUCKS!!!

Right...so every Mustang driver leaving cars and coffee who plows into a crowd should be able to sue Ford. User error doesn’t matter???  Come on!

I bought my Tesla used directly from Tesla. It was living life as a service loaner until I clicked the buy it now button on their website, at which point it was taken out of rotation and sent to a delivery center / showroom for inspection / detailing etc. I had my bank wire the funds to Tesla after the loan was…

Of course not.

The way I understood it was the audit process ran after they sold it. I wonder if they removed it in their system as soon as they bought it back but since it was floating between dealers and auctions and what not, no one actually hit the button on the screen to do the update (it has to be manually initiated). I think…

I’m guessing Tesla bought the car back from the original owner (who paid for the features) during the lemon process. Once it was theirs again, they decided to remove the features (why?) and tagged it in their system accordingly. The car goes to auction and the original window sticker goes with it. Dealer buys it,…

Seems messed up. I bought a used Tesla directly from Tesla and none of my features have disappeared. I wonder if it has something to do with the lemon title? Does it still supercharge?  The situation sounds more like a bug/glitch than ill intent.  

It has air suspension and that is the low or very low setting.  It’s not hitting the Rubicon trail but its more than a mini-van.

Good point. If you charge every night, your golden. I did that when I had an i3 because it had much less range. I also have a maker-who-shall-not-be-named which I charge once a week or so. When I get down to ~50 miles range, I start to keep mental track so if a need pops up for a longer trip than usual, I’m prepared.…

“I don’t know too many people who drive 194 miles in a day regularly, so I still wouldn’t consider range anxiety too high on my list of things to be worried about when buying a new EV.”

Don’t forget, this was under optimal conditions. Try driving in winter with the heater on and in snow/rain and your range is…

Amen.  My two favorite things are watching libs melt down about Trump and Jalopnik have to admit Tesla hasn’t failed.

Agreed.  I respect him more that he sold it and paid his debt rather than looking for a way to weasel out.

Lol. I love the verbal backflips you’re jumping though to explain this rather than just admit they missed the mark. They had almost 8 years to study, refine, and learn from Tesla and other EVs and they missed the mark. Even at twice the price, its questionable if the Porsche is better - and that means its a fail. It…

Right...because no other bystander has ever been killed by someone else in a car that was not paying attention.  Damn you Musk for unleashing this new hell on us!

As crazy as that looks, if you walk up and down the line and talk to owners waiting, I bet not one of them will tell you they regret their purchase. I drove from Portland to Seattle on Thanksgiving and charged in Centralia for about 30 min. It’s not THAT big a deal, it’s something I understand and expect, and I’m…

Most supercharger have 1 stall that allows for pulling in forward in case you are towing.

Even if it ships in 2027, it will still be before all the other EV trucks from the big manufactures that have been supposedly right around the corner forever.

You are exactly right. NO ONE is surprised by AP. It’s such a foreign feeling in a car that you don’t ever hop in and use it completely unaware. The first time you use it, your hands hover 1 inch from the steering wheel while you say OMG OMG OMG this is so cool. You learn from it. You see how it reacts when you drive…

So, just like the center ring in the Mini then?
