Also, re: wompy wheels. I got hit straight on on my driver's side headlights, straight into the wheel per se. The control arms got bent, but didn't womp. The steel rims got bent as well. Shock tower damage, axle bent, but no womp. This was on a Hyundai Accent

Man, no one's getting us to Mars with bicycles. What's wrong with you?? This is pretty wild. Watch the first 10 or so seconds of this video to see some dude trying to fit a Model 3 door seal: https://www.cbsnews.com/video/tesla-ceo-elon-musk-welcomes-gm-competition-60-minutes-interview/ Then see how everyone else does it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OWuIeMCxAIY&t=54s It's OK I still love the car.

I used to drive an Elantra and then I smashed it up and the accent was cheaper. I miss the space and the features somewhat but it’s a nice little car. not super thrilled to still be making payments a year after I was originally going to be done though

Total number of Teslas seen on the roads: Savannah - 1. Denver - 4 (2 S, 2 threes) Total number of Superchargers seen: 0 Clearly the best selling car ever.

bring back old gbs posted:the chad honda vs the virgin tesla Just as a further bit of curiosity... Sodium based batteries somewhat similar to this have been a thing for quite a while now. Crazy high energy density. Unfortunately, sodium salts have to be molten, so their operating temps were something like 300-400 deg C. Obv. not ideal in terms of safety and day-to-day use, but they have been used here and there in military and space industry stuff.
