Yeah thats to big.

 

Why so many memes use the name tyler

 

That's what he said lol

 

So first impressions of the Tesla after driving it around all day:

It’s not a good car if you drive a lot without a plan. You have to plan around your battery range which is about 310 miles for the long range model. However, it is a good commuter car. If you charge it every night you won’t even notice that you have a limited range with it.

Cut it real close today, got home with 8 miles left on the battery.



I think Tesla’s supercharging network across the country is rather decent, if you’re traveling around on the highway or interstate system you will never be be too far from one.

The Model 3 has a lot left to be desired reliability wise. I’ve had the control screen crash on me several times, rebooting at seemingly random intrevals. I’ll have to bring it back to Tesla to diagnose. I drove it without having any controls other than drive/reverse/neutral, and the turn signals until it rebooted itself.

Overall, it’s a very fun and innovative car. The technology never ceases to amaze me, and never failed to put a smile on my face driving it around. But the world has a long way to come before fully electric cars will be the norm. For now gasoline or plug-in hybrids are the best way to go for the money, IMO.

 

Sounds like a death trap to me. And plug in hybrids? Also I don't think Tesla has anything here aside from people's houses

 

i think theres one... in indy.

 

And let's face it you'll probably get robbed or shot in Indy now so would you take the chance

 

Plug in hybrid like a Chevy Volt...plugs into the wall like an appliance to charge. Probably makes for a killer electric bill.

 

They’re very safe cars, has a five star crash rating in every category. Safer than most cars on the market.

So it's the car equivalent of a "lady massager"

 

Never heard of a plug-in Hybrid? Cars like the Chrysler Pacifica, Audi A3, Mitsubishi Outlander, just to name a few.

 

I’m not supporting Tesla or defending them at all. I’m happy with my truck, I don’t think I’ll ever buy one unless they’re dirt cheap.

Tesla is a lot like Apple. Limited convenience, repair monopoly, but look at them now.

 

And which one of those can go down my road without dying or short circuiting

 

That’s not how it works.

 

Lol it does when the car lot dipshit tries to sell it to me. Only one I would like to meet is @Empty_Lord cause he'll just go "you know for the price of this clapped out mustang we can LT your Tacoma?"

 

Meanwhile Ive had my Galaxy S5 for 4 years lol. It has a connit fit once in a blue moon but is still a good phone.

Didn't even crack the screen until 8 months ago.

 

I’m an Apple shill. The best laptop I’ve ever owned is my 2012 MacBook Pro. It’s lasted longer than any windows machine I’ve ever had. That being said I did upgrade it with a good SSD and a RAM kit. That was the last generation of MacBook that was good in my opinion. Now it’s all proprietary and you can’t upgrade anything. Which is why I’m so hesitant to upgrade to a new laptop.

I’ve had almost every iPhone since the 3GS and I can’t bring myself to switch. Their ecosystem has me hooked. It’s too convenient. iMessage, their cloud integration, etc. I’m the kind of person who can benefit from the functionality of an Android, but I prefer the iPhone because of how dumb simple and easy to use it is.

I like Tesla. They’re doing a good thing to the car industry. Competition is always a good thing.

 

I had a Samsung Galaxy S5 active since day one had dings it scratch over the body but none on the screen. Still works like a Swiss watch

 

Explains alot about yourself really. I feel sad for you

 

I don’t know if I should take offense or not to that.
