lol tesla bad

I wonder if soy taking over as farmable crop has anything to do with it. Pissed some conservative farmers off and they started rumors.

Is it something with the ideological make up of the USA?

Very much so, yes.

I live in a state that has pretty dang good public transit (by USA standards) and even still, the county I live in is rural with no buses or trains within walking distance. I could bike, but there are no bike lanes or margins on the roads leading to the closest bus stop that I know. This is for the most populous state in the country while simultaneously being one of the smallest geographically.

If we as a society can accept that we need to allocate over an hour (and that’s being generous) for the first leg a 20 mile round trip to make an appointment or whatever at a massive loss of convenience then, sure… maybe we can make it work. Right now? It’s a pipe dream and getting angry at people who own a car to make their schedules work isn’t doing your “side” any favors.

I will admit that I am part of your problem. I really like my car. I like the idea of having a tool that can quickly, conveniently, and comfortably give me the freedom to travel from place to place without having to deal with other people. That is a selfish stance, I admit. Until it becomes feasible to implement public transit at the scale needed to get rid of cars I am likely going to continue to feel this way.

Because I live in America and there’s no way any kind of massive infrastructure bill that expands reliable public transit to every corner of the country gets anywhere in this day and age. Would love to be proven wrong.

my desire for fancy treats is going to make your life personally objectively more dangerous. Thats life

Literally yes. That’s how it works sometimes.

But sure, let’s all just go back to horses and donkeys. Wait, no… those were dangerous, too. Fuck.

I am well aware of the issues with EV battery fires. It will require changes to how you do your job and the equipment used. That’s life.

We’re not getting public transit everywhere in this country so we’re going to have to adapt.

Occasionally a Tesla will be delivered with a body panel that isn’t aligned appropriately. It is promptly aligned at no cost to the owner.

Again… a ton? Or are you just complaining about something you actually have no experience with just because you hate cars and hate Musk?

Any car can potentially be a ball of hot death for the people inside. What do you expect me to do, sell the vehicle because some day I might hit all the points necessary for someone to be trapped in the back seat and at risk of harm or death? When I rarely ever have anyone back there? That’s fucking ludicrous and a perfect fuck_cars take.

Translates as: “I drive like an absolute cunt.”

Translates as: “I actually have no idea how this person drives.”

A ton?

Believe it or not I don’t spend much time in the back seat.

My buddy sold his Y because his wife hated it and so he tells people it’s because of Musk.

It wasn’t because of Musk.

Are you calling Musk a liar?!?

Literally yes.

I guess we’ll just ignore the tons of positive feedback regarding the yoke out there. Oh well.

The car worked fine with a misaligned panel. Not sure what you’re getting at.

What a silly thing to complain about. TWO touches to get total mileage. Boo-fucking-hoo.

Yoke is optional becaaaaaaaauuuuuuuuuuuuse people didn’t want it. They listened to their customers. Wow, what a terrible move.

Real c/fuck_cars take there.

Oh wow, I did not notice that. Now THAT is a problem.

The fuck are you talking about? There is a regular-sized door handle right there.

If you actually knew what you were talking about you’d know the consumer reports report referenced in the article weighs cosmetic issues as heavily as mechanical ones. It’s been talked about to death since it came out a while ago but yeah, nice yahoo link, bro.

Lol seriously? My passengers find the manual release by accident the first time they go to get out. It’s exactly where you would expect it to be.

“Extra! Extra! Some people are idiots!”

Keep trying, bud.

You obviously have no experience with the cars and are posting one-off issue articles from years ago.

Believe it or not, I am quite happy with my purchase.
