    The transformers are there, the chargers are there.. no need to throw everything away because of a port.

    it would take a mildly inept electrician around 50 minutes to swap out the tesla adaptor for a regular one. 

    Yes, but it’s a bit disingenuous considering no one really wants to wait five hours for their car to charge if they’re on a road trip. 


    I see you posted the new map

    I’d almost remove chademo as well.... but meh.

    There’s literally more than a dozen guides of “must have” apps for EV owners... Plugshare is not the only mapping software to have... I have electromaps and openchargemap as well. This ignoring that I also have two apps to pay for electricity plus the car’s app, and I’m certain that if we lived closer to a city with

    Of course, but it’s also sort of the point.

    Honestly, when pushing it, an M3P can easily get close to those numbers...Tesla has gotten a lot better at making chargers (and fuses!), so I’m not surprised they’re pulling some incredible numbers.

    The rated consumption numbers according to ABetterRoutePlanner are pretty competitive with the Model S... I don’t recall

    There’s simply no denying that the supercharger network is an incredible feat of Tesla. Yes, other companies do fast charging as well, but it’s simply not as elegant as it could be, and as it is with Tesla.

    Also, your map includes level two.... 

    Thats cute.

    Billions has some amazingly placed cars... 

    I guess I’d try to focus Tesla. Right now many people associate them with a luxury high end brand, but the Model 3 is clearly trending to regular car territory. But they’re enjoying the best of both worlds in that sense, because they somehow have buyers that cross shop with a Chevy Bolt and buyers that cross shop with

    If this was Craigslist it would also say “great condition, never tracked” 

    I bet Musk is probably working on that. 

    who is this for?

    Tesla packs have proven to be very good without complicated cooling and control. In a sense just like the LS, which is really good despite being OHV

    Tesla battery packs are like LS motors; not very complicated, and in a sense better because of it. 

    Like the key card that the car comes with that they should bring along all times anyway?

    Nothing says “I care about my security” like low profile tires on an M sport X5 with VR6 bulletproofing.

    That shit falls on a modest pothole and it’s gonna blow the fucking sidewall. No one in the armouring industry would recomend those tires on a car with VR6 armouring. 

    Good. Though I struggle to believe that it’s ridesharing that causes that.

    Why wasn’t it named the Mini Copper S is beyond me
