Yup. This is insane and shouldn’t be allowed. First, if it was Mitch McConnell, Jalopnik would be freaking out. Second, every company I’ve ever worked for makes us take training on conflict of interest. Heck, I can’t even go to a dinner or sporting event with a customer/supplier/etc. because it might look bad.  This

With my Tesla, I have my phone as the primary key and the NFC card they give you as my backup in my wallet.  That way, if I loose/break my phone, I’m not stranded.  Several companies also sell NFC rings which will also operate the vehicle which could be a great backup.

Tesla claims... Tesla alleges... Unclear if statements should be public... etc.

Their forecast hasn’t changed but their ability to execute is becoming more clear hence the run up.

I don’t want to see Tesla fail.”

I wish I could give you more stars!

Does anyone actually know anyone who has surprised someone with a car gift? I’d be surprised if it actually ever happens. These commercials are as imaginary as the desirability of the cars they advertise.

My experience in the tech world...All of the companies I’ve worked for have had this. Usually, it goes like this. You get a req are are told to fill it as quickly as possible or you will loose it so you contact the recruiting department. For all reqs, the candidate pool has to contain x% of diverse candidates. The odd

You can’t fix racism with more racism.

Odds of dying in the car your in due to an accident > dying of covid.  Are you wearing a crash helmet?

In my mind, monitoring drivers is a completely separate function from driver assist. Why doesn’t GM include the driver monitoring in all cars, even those without lane keeping, since it would help keep drivers alert? Unless I’m missing something, they didn’t really rate the actual technology. They rated vehicles

Just because you can’t do it doesn’t mean others can’t. I’ve installed my own EV charger in two homes now. In the second, I installed a sub panel and multiple other circuits for a workshop in my garage. Working with AC is fairly simple and while there may be parts that you don’t understand (like installing new

There are countless examples of people buying EAP, trying it out, deciding the current functionality isn’t worth the cost, and returning it.

I had a 2016 Model X 90d which I sold to purchase my Performance Model Y. I loved the X but given that I sold mine for $48k (mine did have 60k miles), I think this one is priced a little to high. Buying an older Tesla isn’t as bad as people think because they still get regular updates with new features. The issues I

Except its not.  Its a nice car that no one is buying.

This so much!!!  I wish I had more stars to give.

Maybe writers (and the media in general) could slow their roll a bit and not publish hypothesis presented as fact in the race to be first all the time and then never get around to walking back their mistakes when they get it wrong?

Agreed. They had a problem with a part or supplier and rather than stop the whole production line, they came up with a solution which works just fine.  Anyone who has worked on cars for any length of time has stories about things they have seen in cars from all manufacturers.
