P sure all the normal oems check your eyes now for lane assist stuff because they don't want to get in trouble for drivers that purposely fall asleep on the freeway

Tesla just has an anti mattering field when it comes to this

On Honda vehicles its not an eye check. For lane assist you have to have your hands touch the steering wheel at an undisclosed interval. For driver alertness, it's based on steering wheel corrections and drifting in the lane paired with the road departure system to shake the wheel and beep

I tried to look up if it comes with run flat tyres, because that's the sort of fairly pointless feature I would expect. I did not find an answer but did learn
"Teslas don't come with spare tires, but for a good reason. Research shows that spare tires rarely get used, adding unnecessary weight."

A lot of hybrid vehicles are doing the same thing, no spare and a patch kit with complimentary roadside assistance as part of the purchase.

He recently posted something on how he prefers HEB to Walmart, and I oughta ask: I know Texans who stand by that, but is it like the equivalent of Lidl where it has its own brands + has its own semi-ironic marketing where you end up with HEB Trainers and HEB Christmas sweaters or what?

I'd put HEB up with the likes of Costco for both how they treat their employees and the quality of their store brand stuff. During hurricanes and other natural disasters, HEB ends up being more help than the state and federal government.

They're also one of the few businesses that had an ear to the ground RE: COVID and were meeting with Chinese partners in January of 2020 and were implementing social distancing and limits on purchases before it was even declared a pandemic.

quote:

Justen Noakes, Director of Emergency Preparedness:So when did we start looking at the coronavirus? Probably the second week in January, when it started popping up in China as an issue. We’ve got interests in the global sourcing world, and we started getting reports on how it was impacting things in China, so we started watching it closely at that point. We decided to take a harder look at how to implement the plan we developed in 2009 into a tabletop exercise. On February 2, we dusted it off and compared the plan we had versus what we were seeing in China, and started working on step one pretty heavily.

That's less than 28 delivered a day since the delivery event. So at this rate, just under 200 years for all of those 2 million preorders to be fulfilled
