I have numerous cars; none of them are driven that much. Being retired, I don't even have a daily commute. I prefer to fly if going a distance. Have there been issues with the vehicles? Of course. Name a car that hasn't. The braking performance of our car has been fine; additionally regen...

Tesla's recommendation is it is better to regularly charge to 80% if you have a battery like mine (NCA perhaps?), while the LFP batteries can be charged to 100% without degradation. This is my understanding. Your Model 3 rental was likely newer than our 2018 Mid Range, so it probably had the...

5+ years of ownership beats opinion. And the willingness to engage in open-minded conversation. That involves being willing to consider different perspectives, even if they contradict your beliefs. It's a key component of emotional intelligence and fosters education.

How much do you drive per day? If you drive 40 miles per day, and you had a Model Y or 3 Long Range, which are the biggest Tesla sellers, you could charge once a week or longer. Just get home, plug in and forget about it until the next morning. The amount of time and fuel savings would be huge...

That car changed the world.

I don't want you to have to worry about this; give me that incredible Honda!

They have nothing to add to the conversation except childish ridicule.

The Model Y is a better car to buy. More useful, easier to get in and out. I considered one, due to SUV mania, but don't like the sitting position and other stuff. Wifey did say, "Go ahead on the M3P.".

The warranty does not require failure like in a gas drive train for example, it says more than 30% degradation within warranty period. Regardless, that battery will likely last far longer past warranty period. Want proof? If they did regularly fail just past warranty, the Tesla clickbaiters (and...

TSLA is up over 17% since the call... I guess they aren't belly up yet? The roller coaster continues...

Dunno but I gotta get me one... I hear the SpaceX package makes your Tesla special and raises the value...

Not so sure about the decision... What were the pluses beyond customer curiosity? I just see little benefit to renting an EV, especially a car you are not familiar with.

There are good use cases and bad use cases. There is no "all in" for any vehicle. In Hertz case, what were they thinking?

I never understood the Hertz decision to buy Teslas; it makes little sense beyond customer curiosity. Here's the problems, off the top of my head: Hertz paid full price, just like you and I would. No volume discount. Renters are supposed to bring cars back full; they probably have to sit on a...

Teslas have numerous warnings and will disable AP if it senses the driver is not engaged. I don't know much about other cars. The AP feature provides visual and audible warnings to alert the driver of their constant supervisory responsibility. The driver is responsible for the vehicle's...

I suggest you check out some Tesla AP videos. See for yourself. Our car is a 2018 Mid Range Model 3 with EAP, which is Extended Auto Pilot. That's is what was available at the time; it was a $6K option as I recall. It does a lot, but will not engage on city streets. It also has self park, summon...

Here's our car. I think it looks pretty good!

My take is, it is the operator using the tool incorrectly, at least as a component of the accident. Do we really know all the facts? This happens every day in America and around the world. Now if the word "Tesla" is included, click-click-click!

I am not blaming anything. I am following the article. I expect more to come out. Remember a few years ago when the Tesla, on a private unmarked road killed the 2 elder men in the back seat? It was all hogwarsh.
