I think the really important thing to notice is that a lot of the people for this seem to think its a Turo situation where your Tesla is going off and giving people rides, they’re paying for it, and you don’t have to lift a finger- in which case, yes of course whatever- give Tesla 80% or whatever of the money, because…

Not generally. My dad had none of the infrastructure for 220V charging in the garage, and I’m pretty sure it was less than $2k for parts and labor, all said and done.

These all read like Trump tweets.

Eh, I had a snappy rebuttal and I do genuinely believe you have no idea how great the brewing is in the States...

I bet you think Guinness is a Craft Brew

Looks like a bowtie on the E30

Goodyear has a big program for non-pneumatic tires as well. My gut says they’re a little farther along from what I’ve seen.

I mean, I’m pretty sure Activision paid firearm companies for the rights to models and sounds... it would be one thing if they just had a Humvee or two in a cutscene or three, but they made TOYS.

Seems to me Consumer Reports wildly overestimates the average human driver.

Probably not the most advisable way to Add Lightness, but it’s clearly working for him!

Followup question- where are the engine air intakes?
Did these have open grilles on the bottom, underneath the engine?

Woah there sparky, it’s not like locking a door for this necessitates HOLDING it locked.
The amount of time it takes for the passenger to manually unlock the door is more than enough time to avoid the detected collision.
Also, modern cars automatically lock their own doors while people are inside ALL THE TIME. In fact,…

You might be surprised about how good those blind-spot radars are, but that’s why I mentioned Tesla as the flagship for this sort of tech.

Also, it’d probably be best to have an auditory warning, like the “boopboopboop” that the Teslas do when they detect a possible collision.

Damn, you beat me by a few hours to this exact idea.

Hell, if the car was confident enough that a collision would happen if a door was opened, it could automatically lock the door until the obstacle clears.

Most modern cars already have parking sensors and radar for blind spot monitoring- why not leave those systems active for a short time after parking.

Hopefully, unlike clamorings about Peak Oil, they’re actually right about Peak Tesla.

It says the Skyline can’t be titled and can only be tracked... and, I mean- whatever?

gg, it’s a four door Honda CRZ.

There is almost certainly enough signal in the convention center for these cars to properly initialize. The fact that 7+ manufacturers are experiencing this problem on multiple vehicles each definitely means it isn’t some sort of failure to update.

I think there’s a fairly good chance this is a publicity stunt by some…
