    Calling Bathhouse Barry "black" is almost as dumb as insisting that he's Muslim (apparently you can get people to believe anything). He's 50% white and 45% arab, BTW...

    I don't know if Trump is racist

    I'm going to propose that it has no bearing on anything whether he's a racist or not; he's a showman and all of his talking points are intended to appeal to his supporters. He doesn't need to actually believe any of what he's spewing; hell, he was once quoted as saying that if he ran for President, he'd run as a Republican because the constituents are dumber.

    A gas car you can keep going for 15 to 20 years.

    Let me bring you up to the present. Those cars largely got taken off the road with Cash for Clunkers. Today's cars are designed to be "recyclable" (made with the cheapest, lightest materials), not repairable. They also have more moving parts than ever (variable valve-timing, etc) and are beginning to require ultra-expensive (i.e. dealership-only) diagnostic equipment for servicing (the data pathways are DMCA-protected so mom & pop repair shops will be increasingly unable to interface their diagnostic equipment with your car)...

    Here's a story for you: Audi (just to name one) doesn't recommend performing a transmission fluid flush. Ever. Why? They claim that the synthetic factory fluid is "good for the life of the vehicle." Alright, that's fine... but what's the life of the vehicle? Well, according to Audi, it's a mere 80,000 miles.

    Now contrast this automotive-industry bullshit with Musk's stated intention, which is to make sure every Tesla's powertrain is good for at least 8 years and a million miles...

  19. so it's only $350m by the most generous interpretation

    Huh. What would be the least generous interpretation?

    but compared to the S it will indeed be shit.

    You're not being imaginative; it shouldn't take a visionary to figure out that Musk will market the Model 3 at various price-points; there'll be the $40,000+ Model 3 and there'll be the $110,000+ Model 3 with ~750hp+ (likely announced some time after the Model S gets upgraded to 1000hp!) and obviously there'll be a variety of options in between... and as for its differences with the Model S, while I myself am partial to larger, heavier vehicles (I drive a '15 Suburban, for fuck's sake), the laws of physics alone dictate that the impressive performance of this lighter, smaller "2nd-gen Model S" is going to be foregone fucking conclusion.
