Any Tesla owners?

What's funny is that he got so mad he compared a model 3 to a shitty dodge ram 1500.

Nothing "shitty" about a 4th Gen RAM. Have you owned one?

OK boomer...

Not a boomer, but 0 fucks given.

Not angry, Matthew. I'm just from an older generation. It's hard to adapt. I would be the first person to say hey take me for a ride in your new Model 3. I just don't see how it's practical. That's probably because I on occasion takes some long hauls and pull cars and I don't see how electric would be viable. In fact, it wouldn't.

Don't misunderstand what I'm saying. Certainly not an insult to anyone, but if you choose to see it that way. That's up to you.

Bless you, friend.

HAH I knew it!!!

lol, so angry. If you've paid attention, I have a 455ci carbed Buick, a 3/4 ton van with a 318, two 5.0l mustangs, and a turbo four cyl ranger. Replacing one of my mustangs with an electric car isn't going to hurt the gas station down the road from me let alone "save the planet". That's not at all why I want to move over to a Tesla. The reason I want one is the same reason I fly electric RC airplanes. Instant torque, flat power curves, and wild feel it in your guts acceleration. I also like the crazy quite ride, the self driving on the highway, the clean little 4 door price tag and the ability to not have to stop for gas on the way to work. This car gets 312 miles per roughly $11 charge, where as my mustang gets 300 miles per $50 to $60 fill up. With an EV I can drive my 40 to 80 miles a day that I average and just plug in to top off at night. I'll also be ditching my 8qt's of synthetic oil every few months, and oil filter. It's the perfect daily driver for me. I get that you don't want one but holy hell why do people get so worked up about someone elses car?

That giant laptop screen in the center stack is asinine. That's not a distraction for a driver? Or, a younger inexperienced driver?

Odd, indeed.

You guys who like this I think it's cool and all, but its impractical and egregious gimmicky tech gadgetry is plain silly.

I'll take my 500 miles hwy. range per tank Hemi RAM over this nonsense any day. I can fill my tank in 10 minutes at Love's. You blokes have to do what, wait an hour for 24-36 mile charge. lol.

I'll say this on behalf of the coal and natural gas industrious. Go get those electric cars. When you plug in, you're burning coal. Thank you for all these people that will have continued job security with you electric folks.

If you want to have a giant and ridiculous screen in your center stack, then take a lesson from Mopar. They do it right and use aesthetic common sense by integrating it.

[scootro]

why not buy the model 3

Went and drove a few model 3's this weekend. Settled on the #P. It's amazing. and the range fits my needs. Going to be amybe a year till I get one but now I know what I want.

My son is dead set on me getting a Tesla so he was trying to sell it's value using our annual trip to the coast. Did the math and it would add 50 mins to the trip charging once for 30 mins and a second for 20 only saving $12 each way over gas. $12 sure as hell isn't worth sitting an hour in some shitty gas station, I'll keep the petrol......
