Like the airbags that blow debris into people’s faces killing and maiming xcetera? No one should drive with their kid in a car that has an airbag!

What I'm reading here is that people shouldn't drive.

It is safer then forgetting to put the parking brake on when there is a passenger in the car. It happened to me if my truck had auto brakes it would have never ran into a wall.

Last year i forgot to set the parking brake on my 96 f250 work truck(abs is the only electronic aid) with my co worker in the passenger seat and ran into a concrete wall. That is more dangerous then the summon feature

$500M a quarter? Where are you getting this figure? Operating expenses of $479M, and non-GAAP loss of $114M for Q4 2015, over 10% of which is due to currency revaluation. They still have $1.2B cash, so even at their current burn rate thats 10 more quarters. Model X production is ramping up, Powerwall deliveries have…

Nope. Making double the cost of the car is better that most. Many buy way more car than they can afford. Anyone can save up. You have to make a lot to take the full $7500 or don’t have any significant (home loan etc.) deductions. Anyway, it basically helps people that would/could buy the car anyway. Like the people…

If you make enough to get the full $7500 tax credit. After I itemize my taxes I only owe like $3000 so that is the most I can get. So if you have even more money than you know what to do with you can get the car even cheaper than someone who makes much less.

While we’re at it can we do that for Social Security also?

I do live in California and think the cut off is way too high

But the people in the market initially for vehicles like the Tesla aren't really concerned about the environment. I know that for a fact. It's more of a status symbol than anything. These people never needed an incentive to buy the vehicle. They were already sold on the fact that it's something different that no one…

Don't know why it wasn't like this from the start. My mom and dad know a number of Tesla owners that took advantage of this. If you can afford a Model S or any other expensive electric car why should you get a rebate?

A step in the right direction, but the cut offs are still too high.

I don’t want to live in a world where Iron Maiden has enough fans to sustain a 747 as a tour bus.

No? Economies of scale make grid electrical production even with fossil fuels vastly more efficient than internal combustion. Plus technologies for electrical production (solar, wind, hydro, nuclear, geothermal, etc) that would be impossible at the scale of a car are not only viable, but virtually free besides initial…

“as little as $25,000 when you throw in tax rebates”

If you text and drive, Fuck you.

I’d agree, it’s totally the human condition but that don’t change the outcome. Many of those women or ones like them have politely declined as I don’t meet their expectations for a partner. If you are attractive enough and find a friend and partner and you both treat each other with love and respect, that is amazing.…

Nope, you may be able to get a foot in the door with a few girls if you’re pushy or overly confident but that is very short lived at best. Maybe if you have two guys that are both aesthetically acceptable the douchey confidant guy will get the girl but that don’t do anything for the ugly guy that’s not even in the…

You have to keep in mind some of us are very ugly. I could never buy or use anything like this but I understand how guys can feel like its a better option or even the only option. Some of us have never had a girl look us in anyway other way than pity. When I was younger I didn’t know I was ugly but after I asked out a…

Feel free to go out and do so, the old way is just fine and plenty fun but fuck having a chance of having kids, fuck diseases and most of all fuck dumping 3 rounds of booze into a chick before she tells you she’s taken, I dont spend that much on my life long friends birthdays but she’ll ride it out till I’d rather…
