Oh you’ll need it if you try ludicrous mode on a curve!
^ The effects of suddenly stopping was rather anti-climactic.

$5000 upgrade if you have a P85D Model S. No spaceship needed.
Not at all, i’m gonna build my own then mod it! 
I wonder how many collective 18650 cells BLFers have, we could build our own Model 3/S and drive like maniacs.
7,104 18650 cells in the 85 kWh battery pack.
With the way some BLFers like to overdrive things, flooring the accelerator in ludicrous mode will have a 50/50 chance of instant detonation “rapid disassembly”.
Sad is the Man who doesn’t long for the sound of raw power under his right foot.
Nothing about electric cars interests me.
Just play V8 engine sounds on the stereo while driving it.
Sync the V8 engine sound effects to acceleration. Bluetooth OBD II module, android phone, car sound system.
It would be fun to suddenly turn it off (or on) while driving past someone.
this why I bought a Fiat Abarth 
To quote Wikipedia
I have to say ‘no thanks’. I prefer a car that has a usable volume of cargo space. If it was a wagon I’d say ‘maybe’. I’ll take a wagon over an over-inflated top-heavy ‘crossover’ any day and wish manufacturers hadn’t decided to spend $billions to convince buyers they want ‘crossovers’.
Some of the misconceptions people have are mildly assuming. “Top-heavy” has to be one of the best. Since all Teslas have a very low center on gravity.
The Model 3 has a front trunk and a rear hatch. Tesla says it has way more room and cargo space than an engine-powered car of the same size. Though no numbers have yet been released to define “way more” space.
The frunk has to be wrong, 5.3cu ft makes no sense, i’ve seen pictures and its obviously much bigger.
Haters gonna hate, i’ve learned from experience that facts are wasted, hence i don’t bother, when the wave comes they will be the dinosaurs (trying to drive on dino juice)
“5.3” might sound smaller than it looks but it’s cubic feet. And 53 would bring it close to the room in the back with the rear seats down.
That means it can only fit 1-2 garbage bags
Don’t worry. You can fit a body in two garbage bags easy!
I have to admit, I have trouble with the idea of giving up dino juice. Because you can fill the tank so quick. Even plugged into a supercharger they say it takes 20 min to charge to 50, 40 min for 80, 75 min for 100%. I know with the 200 mile range a normal commute doesn’t even close to requiring a recharge. Still I want faster! 120kW? Pfft, if the cable isn’t smoking I’m not happy. Or superchargers in every parking lot.
Reservations are now at 232k. Previously Tesla said the average price will probably come out to $42k, considering a mix of options. Which gives you just shy of $10B.
Musk: “Recommend ordering soon, as the wait time is growing rapidly.”
That’s quite rudely arrogant, and implies a level of snarky ignorance that’s becoming popular in this “Internet Age”.
“Progress”, you say? Did you forget the electric car has been tried already? In the 19th Century!!! You can call it a “vast right-wing conspiracy”, and continue to deny the Engineering and Free-Market forces that actually do work IRL. “Those who refuse to learn from history will be forever condemned to repeat it.”
When that notion failed, we came up with a much better solution: Internal Combustion. That was about the same time that John D. Rockefeller saved the whales (forgot that too, I’d wager)! Putting carts before horses has been tried too, with the same FUD, fallacy and lack of cost-effective results.
This perversion of the “NIMBY” concept, where it’s okay to pour as much crap in the air as needed, as long as it’s miles away from ’me’ at the power station, is just laboratory-grade Denial, even if it could be made to work IRL.
Around the world from any definition I’ve found for the word “progressive”.
Still, SWMBO & I get a good belly laugh at the current (Ford??) electric-car commercial where the guy drives up to a cute little charging station, plugs in, and walks away into the desert. Talk about your “Truth In Advertising”!!!
(Full disclosure: I WANT an electric car, but not as badly as I want to drive myself all the way back home.)
PS: The “amazing crash in solar panel prices” is most-likely due to the exposure (and subsequent removal) of “progressive” ruling-class payola. Hardly an “apples-to-apples” comparison, when some “invisible hand” holds a gun to my head to force me to pay off some crackpot bullshit artist’s grand delusion.
But y’all do keep trying, m’kay? We want you to succeed, but in a fair, unmolested “even playing field” of the Market; without force, fraud or abuse to maintain your beliefs.
