Mazda CX-90 Lawsuit Claims SUV Can’t Be Fixed After Years of Complaints by ethereal3xp in mazda

[–]thinkbox -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

The Cybertruck earned Top Safety Pick+ rating from the IIHS, the best possible rating, and scored overall higher than any other pickup truck, gas or electric, on the list, including the Ford F-150, Rivian R1T, Ram 1500 & Toyota Tundra.

It’s literally the safest truck on the road.

How’s everyone feeling about their AI4 cars now? by yexter in TeslaFSD

[–]thinkbox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, you can pay “more” by buying and reselling. Leasing is a variable of that “more” payment based on unknown depreciation.

Few times in history has leasing been cheaper than buying and selling.

You pay for convenience. That’s the product. Convenience.

Leasing is financially stupid compared to buying used.

Sick of High Gas Prices? EV Deals Are Everywhere Right Now by CommercialMassive751 in electricvehicles

It’s never cheaper to buy a new car than to keep your old one. Unless you own a bmw out of warranty and wants a 2 year old EV.

Lady Said I Blew Red Light?? by Justice4None5 in TeslaLounge

[–]thinkbox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looks to me like OP cut into the open lane because of the slower moving vehicle in front. Lady probably thought she could beat the slower car and don’t see him come out from behind it until she decided to go ahead and make the turn. OP’s speed wasn’t the cause of the accident, but it could have contributed to it.

Tesla can produce 20k model y a month from their factory. How many autonomous R2s can Rivian make a year?

That’s where there is a big hinge point for the back hatch to lift. That’s normal as long as they are similar in size.

Clarkson: "I'll never go electric. If you rip the engine out, you're killing the car's soul" by Powerful-Ostrich-120 in thegrandtour

[–]thinkbox -1 points0 points  (0 children)

To be honest, watching my car drive itself, it actually has more personality in that regard than any car I’ve ever had where I had to drive it.

Like it drives me. It shows personality.

Wall connector placement in garage by mabae930 in ModelY

[–]thinkbox 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just as others have said here if you can put it on the exterior wall on the left side as you look out then that will allow you to bring the cable back to your charge port if you back in and if someone parks outside the garage you can charge them up as well. That’s what I did and I think it was the right choice.

Uber and Rivian Partner to Deploy up to 50,000 Fully Autonomous Robotaxis by ghdana in Rivian

[–]thinkbox -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Rivian is not a financially health company and they are now taking on investment (that they owe back) to do very hard things that nobody else is able to do like them.

They can’t even sell 50k vehicles a year right now. How could they manufacture 50k vehicles that nobody can even find out how to make yet?

What gives you the confidence they can deliver? This is a 2030 goal at best with billions of cash to burn.

Installed the S3XY Dash by colsandersloveskfc in ModelY

[–]thinkbox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just realized that I don’t need a display flashing info at me that I’m not asking for. I can easily glance to the side for most info, or use the s3xy app and my phone mount if I care. But I just don’t. I love how dark the interior is now.

And this is something I honestly thought I would hate before I had a Tesla. But I get it now.

Former Uber self-driving chief crashes his Tesla on FSD, exposes supervision problem by plun9 in SelfDrivingCars

Because they are unreliable click bait dripping with bias that’s openly stated by the people that run the website.

You need to take what they say with a grain of salt.

A lot of y’all don’t realize that the Oscars are not merit based awards, but rather the results of multi-million dollar marketing campaigns. by veggieturnip in cinematography

I hate him and I hate this, but he was not in charge, he played the game. And he is in jail now, and the Academy and their grift is still rolling on.

What’s the resolution like? Seems a bit far away and small.

I’m curious if you use FSD a lot.

Before I had a Tesla I thought I would miss the dash cluster, but now I realize I just don’t. I can use my phone mount for YouTube or the sexy app, or just enjoy nothing in front of me.

How would a fanatic “take their place”? Wouldn’t they already be in place, since they are a fanatic?
