I think I lost my tesla deposit (1K) I guess it became a donation to tesla even if it was supposed to be refunded. Im putting in my non refundable deposit. Even if I dont end up getting one because they suck or something, 300 to reserve a spot for mid next year, Im fine with that.

I predict that you are 100% wrong. AI is already giving massive productivity gains. The internet, the PC itself, the iphone all were massive disruptors. That being said some jobs will be lost, but others will be created.

New video posted by Slate is showing vehicle frames. Can anyone get any useful information from the video of the frames?

1) For sure AWD, this is a relatively minor modification 2) expanded uses cases for the existing form factor (e.g. work van, minivan with rear entry, bench seat to expand front passenger seating)) 3) extending the bed, this is also a relatively minor modification 4) beefing it up to expand tow...

Pool maintenance, delivery vans, plumbers, electricians, drywall, flooring, masons etc. The vast majority of tradesman are not hauling heavy stuff. Their stuff is big, oddly shaped, and very dirty. If you need a large amount of something heavy at a jobsite it is getting delivered (drywall...

So apparently you need dongles, software etc, just to replace a battery. i hope this is not the case for the Slate.. This kind of stuff is completely ridiculous and is one of the biggest issues with the complexity of cars today.

I 100% would look at the ford if slate doesnt pan out but for 5K less (and the ford will have all kinds of markups) I get: Smaller truck (ford is 210 inches, slate is 187) no shitty infotainment system Not "software controlled car" They literally want software everywhere in the car physical...

An EV motor is not "as difficult" to manufacture as an ice engine. An ev transmission is not "as difficult" to mfg as an ice transmission Ev doesnt have an exhaust, but in my tundra there are extra parts and machinery to reduce emissions, such as the secondary air injection pump. replacing both...

Airlines should be buying futures to hedge increases in price. If they didnt do it, that is on them.

I modified my tundra to have a rear view mirror backup camera. It is completely useful. The bigger screen in my other cars definitely helps some, but the tiny one in the rearview is fine.
