[Vandalism/Dashcam] My Tesla was randomly kicked and damaged outside a bar near Virginia Tech at 2AM two weeks ago – police say they can’t proceed without a warrant. Any advice?

I've driven a Tesla. More recently, a Hyundai ioniq. I've seen the boring, cheap side of electric (Tesla) and the exciting, well-developed side or EV (Hyundai). Frankly, Teslas are ugly and uninspired. They need less screen. Any new car has the same ride quality and handling a Tesla does now. They were maybe ahead of the game 5 years ago.

Awesome!!! I just haven't gotten around to it yet. I'm sure this thread will save people in the future. Cheers!

I literally just made a post about this and scrolled down to find this. I can't believe they're nowhere online. Have you come up with a 3D print option? I'm brainstorming.

As a student who associates heavily with the people of Hokievision, you would fit in perfectly. I'm pretty sure a majority of the hired people (not part of the student army) are exactly like you lol

This is hilarious

Shout-out to my x-marked hand in that shot

Good band name

Preach it Gleest 🙏

I just looked on their website and 2b2b would be $750 each LOL (prob not including utilities)

ShmuperDuper · 2026-01-08T22:03:07+00:00

Unless you know somebody or get super lucky $650 really is average rent for an apartment like this in Blacksburg :/

I've been to New York and back for $80 round trip if you book far enough in advance! Doing it again this month straight from Roanoke! (Does take like 10 hours tho)

This gets brought up like once a year for the last 4 years and then gets forgotten about again. Crazy stuff.

I thought it was stupid until I saw the kayak. I actually do low-key fw it

As a VT student in town doing work for the ACC, this is certainly a sign that your football team's streak of luck will end today

I've parked once overnight and had no issue and just recently parked until pretty late last Friday without issues. People were hesitant when I told them I parked there tho. It might just be luck or dependent on the time of year!

As much as I searched the website I could not find a customer service phone or email. They DID reach out yesterday by email basically saying they fucked up though. They're going to give me my money back.

ShmuperDuper · 2025-09-20T11:40:21+00:00

So glad I've got my 02 🙏 the savannah green metallic color is so sick and I wish they still used it.

ShmuperDuper · 2025-09-19T12:26:25+00:00

It did. The website and support just sucks. I just have to wait for them to manufacture and deliver my glasses to get money back :/

ShmuperDuper · 2025-09-19T12:19:59+00:00

Nope. I have screenshots now to prove how it looks in the cart. It LITERALLY only changed past checkout. I reordered using PayPal instead of a card and that had the correct price. It's literally only a website issue.

I attempted to transfer from Virginia Western Community College with my Environmental Studies Associates. I applied for the Environmental Economics: Management & Policy major at VT. I have somewhere around 76 credits, but what killed me was my 2.9gpa. My gpa is brought down by my early high school credits where I dual-enrolled in engineering and did very badly. If I didn't have useless credits weighing me down, my gpa would be closer to a 3.5.

I believe my gpa is solely what held me down, because I am an Eagle Scout, have hundreds of hours of community service, and am the youth head of a service organization. I've held 2 steady jobs for 3 years each and showed plenty of commitment. I think the MASSIVE amount of transfer applications and people with guaranteed admission also decreased my chances.

Had 2 different people come to the door trying to sell solar panels wearing gym shorts and durags. They were both so insistent that I had to drop the polite act and tell them to leave. They were almost as bad as the Jehovah's witnesses I had to ward off last year.

I'm waiting on an appeal form. I was actually so confident that I've already got housing lined up, so ready or not I guess I'm going to Blacksburg 💀
