And since it's an aircraft, I bet there are regulations saying you can't just go ask someone to hammer out a sheet metal spinner for you instead.

There’s a process for “owner-produced parts” that can help, but you certainly can’t get someone to hammer out a sheet metal spinner because that doesn’t conform to the original design of shittily resin-impregnated cloth.

Pinto 2 is already here, its tesla, more people have died in tesla battery fires than in pinto fires

Yeah but that was back when the authorities could take action, before they moved everything to an individual risk tolerance model.

Everyone else’s cars should have these whizbang interlocks, but mine should not.

Like, sometimes I want to run the wipers while parked and waiting, but the headlights are not appreciated in that situation.

If it needs another pass, I can bump the stalk to the momentary “mist” position.

thankfully most manufacturers have finally realized not to have the oil pan/filter as the lowest point of the car anymore. my subframe has saved my rear end a handful of times

There are people who intentionally install longer oil filters that hang below the frame for “more capacity”, and it’s like, buddy, not worth it.

Brand new Cybertruck being driven home for the first time has the windshield break, apprently due to a defect, and Tesla wants $2300 to replace it

Regardless of anything else, it’s loving stupid PR for Tesla to squeeze their first five thousand customers like this.
