“hasn’t convinced Elon why asking the internet to vote on the truthiness of the news is a bad idea”

The general public is spectacularly terrible at everything.

The DeLorean saga is exemplary of this same routine. If you live in the ‘Big Three’ ecosystem you are openly advised to do no favor for disrupters.

No industry insider is going to risk alienating the giants of their own industry. The hyperbolic character of his assessment leads me to wonder how long he’s been familiar with mechanical engineering. I seriously doubt anything on the Tesla can hold a candle to the corporate atrocities of the ‘70s and 80s such as the…

That guy is a joke. We’ve had EVs now for a while. What percentage of accident require cutting power to the battery? How do access compare to other cars? I had an BMW i3 which Munro swooned over with the SAME emergency issues...I don’t think there is ANY way to open the frunk of an i3 from the outside to get to the…

YOU. DO. NOT. OWN. THE. ROAD. IN. FRONT. OF. YOUR. HOUSE.

I genuinely do not understand how people were able to keep…

At the wheels. Which is totally feasible.

Get this; if you look closely at concept cars by major automakers, they’re really just painted clay mock-ups, maybe with small electric motors driving the wheels!

+1, a small crossover and/or 2nd gen Model S might make more sense if Tesla was run by GM rather than a Bond villain.

A performance bargain unlike anything ever.

they literally showcased it at the live event. like 0-60 sprints and everything.

You must be a Trump supporter. It’s ok we understand.

It has a 200kWh battery. The P100D has a 100kWh battery. Add to that the fact that the Roadster is probably built to be lighter (excluding batteries) and more aerodynamic, I can see how the range is almost doubled.

If this is real, like, REALLY REAL, this will be the hottest car in the history of cars.

I’m just asking a question, please keep that in mind. Can someone explain “systemic racism”. I hear it all the time, but it seems to be one of those catchall terms tossed around.

Im not from US so I would like to know how the deal with the N word works...

“Be patient, have a thick skin, and a big bank account balance.”

Or, and I know I’m being crazy here, you can stop giving a fuck about your apparent height.

How do we know Zuckerberg specifically put a ton of thought into this, versus just “choose what you think are the best photos of me” – no different from how any soon-to-be-wed couple would direct their own photographer?

I’m only 5'8 and I have never even cared.
