On the multi-lane roads I drive on, if you slow down a little and leave more space, somebody in another lane will promptly swerve into the gap. It’s not even because they want to get ahead; they’ll do this even when their lane was moving faster than yours.

If you are lucky a car will hop in and you will have good visibility around and over it. SUV will be far enough away to where it won’t impact your visibility.

So two more can hop in?

I think you will find that if you slow down a little and increase the space in front your visibility will improve.

Fucking sound tubes/boxes/speakers..

SUVs of course. The fact that they’re terrible gas-guzzling dangerous garbage, while it is the reason why I wouldn’t want to own one, is not my objection to somebody crazy enough to want a crappy car like that having one for himself.

And R2D2 just stood there doing NOTHING

To be frank, he just doesn’t care. He has his car floating is space right now. A car from a company that HE created is now floating in space thanks to a rocket from a company the HE ALSO created.

Good. Wall street analysts are basically professional sports bettors. Fuck ‘em.

Oh come on..4 wheels, windshield, doors.

they are brothers from another mother.

Looks nothing like the Model 3, but what’s interesting is that had I not known was meant to be a Taurus design study I would have guessed it to be RWD based on the proportions—the rear overhang seems rather long and the greenhouse is pretty far back.

Yeah, definitely grasping at straws here. They have to hit their daily Tesla article quota somehow.

No it didn’t.

I wonder if switch to DC motors is at least in part responsible for seemingly eliminating some of Model S notorious overheating issues.

yes but standard chargers are no super chargers in terms of quickly charging your car.

Man, everyone knows there is nowhere as convenient as the dealership.

Seriously, “Come drive 10 miles out of the way to fill up your car with special porsche electrons”

Depends on what kind of electrons you choose. The menu screen on the charger has a few options: Electrons painted to exterior color, Sport Electrons, Leather wrapped electrons.....etc

lol @ charging being done at the Porsche dealership. That’s exactly what people want.

HOT TAKE ALERT:

It's not the same. Adding turbines adds drag that didn't exist before. You are creating more inefficiency in your quest to capture the energy. The tire energy can be recovered without the same hit to the system.
