According to JD Power and anyone else capable of using Google, traditional class 8 diesel trucks can weigh up to 25k lbs. Unless you have actual data that the Tesla semi weighs more than that, them demonstrating it completing a 500 mile run with a total gross weight of 80k lbs is amazing. Anyone that says otherwise is…

1st gear - lol! When his package was announced, everyone said the requirements for each level where impossible and Tesla would be out of business in 6 months anyways so it doesn’t matter. Guess who’s having the last laugh.
I don’t know why this is a story. This kind of thing happens all the time with banks, employers etc. Mistakes are made and you have to pay it back. Period. Someone who works for me got their signing bonus paid out in a lump sum instead of spread over 2 years like its supposed to. Had to pay it back. At my previous…
Agreed. Usually, dealer “no haggle” is code for pay the price we want and we don’t want to negotiate. It does not save you from getting a different “no haggle” price at a different dealer. Since MSRP include profit for dealers, every single one of them could sell for that price but they just don’t.
Prices can change. That is understandable. Supply chain, material cost increases, etc. happen all the time. What is not acceptable is for two people buying the same car at the same time getting different prices due to dealer pressure, markups, or ability to deal.
While low price is nice, the benefit to me with no haggle pricing is that everyone pays the same price for the same car. That is what I truly want when shopping. I don’t want to feel like I have to spend hours working for a deal. I loved the experience with Telsa. Everyone that bought the same trim of car at the…
The more things change, the more they stay the same.
Same. I have FSDBeta and use it on every single drive. I also pick and choose where I use it because while it will get you from A to B, it won’t do it the way I would do it and it would annoy other drivers so I’m selective about its use but seriously, I won’t ever own another car without it.
For this year, I would guess its level 2 but is still in beta and pushed out to everyone that has purchased / subscribed to FSD.
Exactly. They would have to have provided this statement to the original buyer and have a way to ensure future buyers are aware. I don’t think this will stand up in court.
Lol. Tesla outperforms wall street but Jalopnik tries to report it as a fail. Your bias is showing.
Did you really just bring slavery up in a discussion about 0-60 times? Wow. I mean, just wow. I can’t even...
Stop. Just stop. Rollout is and has been the standard measurement of 0-60 for ages. There is nothing tricky going on. Its the quickest 4 door sedan on the planet and yes, on a drag strip with official timing equipment will do 0-60 in 1.9 sec. Period.
+1. To add to that, when you do find other chargers, my experience with them is that probably 75% either don’t work or charge slower than expected etc.
It’s really not about the car. Its still the charging network. My experience with 3rd party charging infrastructure since 2016 is that it has barely inched forward when it needs to move miles. Even when many cars have 275+ mile range, you very rarely at 100% charge. It’s often been a week since you charged (since we…
Got it. So it’s not that it removes any recourse, just shifts the burden of proof. Thanks.
I’m not sure I agree. Even if you said you didn’t need the car fax because you trust the dealer and bought it anyways, if you got it home and found out the milage was wrong, I think you still have legal options because the car is not as advertised. I guess Elon could wait until after the deal is closed to look more…
5th Gear: Seems to me the number of real users a social media site has would be quite important. That would heavily impact revenue models if you wanted to charge users for subscriptions or be able to convince advertisers to spend based on size of audience. I don’t believe for a sec that bots make up <5% like Twitter…
