Big Oil has bilked the US taxpayers for Trillions.
GM and Chrysler took many more billions than Tesla ever will.
What I want to know is will $TSLA short-sellers ever been weaned off from spreading FUD?
This BeauHD user must be losing their ass on their short selling position. Their posts here today reek of desperation.
Posting short-seller FUD articles. You guys are really really desperate, and pathetic.
" how would they be packed to minimize the chance of a catastrophe en route?"
With an insurance policy.
It's about 3 weeks by boat. That gives about 25 days for production, 25 to ship, and 40 for installation with 10 leftover for the party afterwards.
My next car will be full electric. I've seen how much stupid policy, horrible activity and destruction has been generated by fossil fuel burning in the last couple decades and I refuse to be a party to it any longer.
Plenty of Anonymous Cowards will bash Tesla and say the cars are awful, but yet the named actual owners of the cars love them. Even the one's who've encountered problems with their vehicles. The vast majority of issues have been dealt with satisfactorily. The reliability and build quality issues are being eliminated. All this from a car company that's only 8 years old.
I look eagerly forward to joining the Tesla family of owners in the next year or so. It's been a long time since someone produced a car that inspires me the way that Tesla has.
There has been one reported death while AP was engaged. There have been other Tesla accidents in which the owners have allegedly reported AP is in use, but as of yet these owners have refused to allow Tesla to examine the logs to confirm or deny this allegation. As of yet only one of the accidents reported in the recent media has occurred where it is confirmed that AP was engaged at the time of the crash. Rumours make could clickbait, but once upon a time slashdot was concerned with facts.
This isn't launching, but launching will be a cakewalk for a Model X.
1000 Miles / day. Easily. You mean hitting 70mph for 14.3 hours non-stop? Not that easy.
Some of the better EV's can now do three hours (180--200) miles and recharge in under 30 minutes and do it again. 30 minutes. Bathroom break, little bite of food and a stretch. And this is with today's battery technology.
About that towing. What's important for towing? Torque. What type of vehicle makes a lot of Torque? EV. Build a comparable class EV and it should be able to out perform ICE in towing.
Driver initiated the command (intentionally or accidentally), Driver ignored warning chime and on screen dialog. Driver then exits vehicle and it starts doing it's thing 3 seconds after he left vehicle. Was he watching, or walking away? Driver did nothing to stop it. Could have used key fob, or touched a door handle.
Driver either intentionally or accidentally activated the feature, ignored or didn't hear audible chime, ignore Cancellation dialog on the monitor, took foot off brake, opened door exiting vehicle and closed door and then either watched it start to happen 3 seconds later or wasn't looking back at all. See all the details from the log in the article published online in The Verge today.
Definitely not a problem for the Netherlands. The whole country is roughly the size of the state of Maryland. Driving end to end in a Tesla might require about 45 minutes worth of recharging at the superchargers (which already have national coverage there and there are still more coming online this year).
Agreed. At this point the bomb story sounds more like a politically convenient tale than an evidence based explanation.
This. Exactly This. If you want a label, go with the GMO-free label. That way the side of the argument that wants the labels is the same side of the argument that has to pay for the costs involved.
And none of us have zero stake financially because we all eat and if the anti-gmo crowd have their way, it will end up costing us all more.
Automated cars need a toilet. And a mini-fridge. Michigan to Florida non-stop.
You're already carrying the sphere!
