Had a chance to ride in a friend's Tesla. Those door handles are so godamned stupid. You either have to use 2 hands or cock your wrist at a weird angle to simultaneously depress one end with your thumb and grab the other end with your fingers.

I rode in one once and the interior plastic felt like plastic takeout containers, thin and flimsy

Considering they’ve design the ability for a passenger to leave a burning car around the concept of doing an escape room I would never actually get into a Tesla :lol:

I think I have bad taste in car interiors because most of the time when someone describes something in them as cheap or tacky I think it's fine, but my god, whatever felt-like material that they use on the doors is terrible.

The War Has Changed
On two separate occasions I've been riding my motorcycle and have had a Tesla driver try and crush me because they felt the need to enforce the law. The first time I was lane filtering (not splitting) and a white Tesla pulled hard right as I was coming up on it and pushed me into a Jersey barrier. He rolled down the window and started yelling at me that it's not legal even though it is in my area.

Another time I made a right turn across a bus lane and a Tesla sped up, cut in front of me and blocked me so he could tell me it's against the law to drive in the bus lane. I had to ride up on the sidewalk because he wouldn't let me past.

What's I'm saying is, Tesla drivers think they're cops.

i’ve taken a few uber rides in models 3s. the part of the screen that shows object detection is always a fun watch. that thing loving sucks at detecting cars, obstacles, signs, lights, or lines on the road. it’s a cool game to try to make sense of what it manages to detect and what it misses (a LOT)

technically it's 100% okay to park your lifted diesel ram superduty at a supercharger (or several at once!) because it has a battery

Technically it's legal to park any vehicle at a Supercharger because Tesla isn't law enforcement (yet) and Elon can't stop you, and Tesla doesn't own any of the land that their superchargers are on so you aren't trespassing against them either

Only time I rode in a Tesla was for an uber and I was carsick the whole time for some reason.

Also the radar shut was mistaking people on the road as traffic cones

I also tried to ban someone from a Discord for pointing out what an unrelenting shithead I am! I'm even dumb enough to think it worked!
