Just marginally less dangerous in certain situations (and insurance data probably backed it up they tend to lobby for things like this that save them money).

Ah, nevermind my previous reply then. Good luck with your search - it’ll likely be long and unsuccessful. As you pointed out, if a mfr produce such a car, it would sell by the dozens - as in negligible numbers. Not only most customers want ‘tech’, but EVs presented manufacturers with the very rare opportunity to…

WHY does it have to be a 4-door? Are there going to be four people in there off-roading?  I don't get the infatuation with crew cabs.  Otherwise looks great, would look tremendous as a Xtra or single cab though.

Since when do laws make sense? But also, Sedans can run over a kid’s bike same as anything else?

Hey it MARTY!

I don’t think many people are going to walk into a dealership talking weight vs range. The range is growing with weight drop because of development, not a sheer drop of range/battery content. I would love to see the number of people who want a 150-mile fun EV vs the 250 350 it’s all price, not just weight. The…

Was speaking more to many posters here that throw around the 1000lb number as the EV weight premium which just isn’t true.   Yeah, all modern cars are fat. That is where we are today with safety regs and all. ICE cars are fat. EV’s are just a little fatter.... typically 10% more or so.  My college car in the 90’s…

You (an I) want a combination of new drivetrain technology and an old-school simple interior. Unfortunately, that combination is not something that exists. EVs are all about the new features.
Much like the demise of manual transmissions, it looks like we are going to have to get used to computer screens in our cars,…

basically their response would be, ‘fuck you, go buy a Taycan/‘insert other BEV VAG product’’

I’ve always used flashers any time I was forced to travel dramatically below the speed limit on the highway (mechanical issue, running out of gas, thick fog, heavy rain) and it seemed that other cars were still moving at higher speeds. That seemed like a good way to indicate slow-moving travel to other cars that…

When the Model S was announced, there was no car on the market that I wanted more. But I couldn’t afford it.

I’d love this. A bare bones EV that’s focused on performance or driving experience. I don’t care about all the extra stuff they keep cramming into cars. I am 100% fine with an EV instead of an ICE for my daily driving, but that doesn’t mean it has to have every feature under the sun. I just want 4 wheels, a nice body…

Agreed on that one.

“Think about the most average person you know, then remember that roughly half the people buying gas are dumber than that person.”

I recommend following SuperfastMatt on YouTube regarding shoehorning Tesla drivetrains into other vehicles:

Yeah never gonna happen. Teslas sell because of that the gizmos

You’re such a badass.  “gotta hide from the man” 

I don’t want any of the self driving stuff, I wanna get a model 3 performance and try using it as a track car.. can I get one without all the cameras period? lol

Starred for Marty 

What reason did they cite for not doing it before? Privacy?
