non hellworld, just funy computer: i got to drive a friend's tesla for a couple of weeks this summer and have formed a firsthand opinion of it. - actually a lot of fun if you just drive it as a car. fun acceleration, pretty good handling for something that heavy, quiet. electric vehicles are cool. - surprisingly comfy seats. - interior materials are cheap. corolla level, but toyota has better qc. not like actively garbage but lol at anyone calling it "luxury." - don't like one pedal driving but i guess you'd get used to it. - hate the big touchscreen with too many distractions. i was always looking at it and messing with it. - pretty big turning circle and terrible rear visibility (model y). - self driving cruise is pretty great on boring empty highways. - self driving in the city is awful, i hate it, it tried to kill us at least once on every trip and it has no ability to do anything but react to what it can see immediately in front. it is just gas brake gas brake gas brake gas brake gas brake the whole time. it loving sucks. i would still not buy a tesla but i would like an electric car now, i think.

the new Hyundai that looks like a Datsun is super cool looking, and the EVs from VW/Audi are pretty nice if rivian is Doin Thangs in partnership with Daimler I could see their stuff being really good as well

post hole digger posted:what do you mean? do teslas not have a break pedal? they do, but they also have a "one pedal driving mode" (which tesla recommends you use) where acceleration and braking are both blended in the right pedal. push down to send power to the motors, let off to start regenerative braking (rather than coasting). to maintain speed, you hold the pedal at an intermediate position. let off the pedal completely and the car will apply strong regenerative braking and quickly bring you to a full stop, blending in the service brakes at the end to hold the car in position. in normal driving, you generally do not use the brake pedal at all. elon musk says this is great because it means the brake pads will last the life of the vehicle. i feel like this may be unsafe because it's very different from how every other car works, and the idea of training people "try to never touch that other pedal if you can!" doesn't sit well with me.

that would probably have been a much simpler way to describe it, but i have never driven a golf cart so i didn't know that's how they work

cjs: spent today prying information out of a goofy vendor whose documentation doesn't match reality. finally got linked up to someone with enough clue to describe the requirements in detail and thought the issue was being closed out when the original customer-service script-jockey has to chime in with this gold: "A $product can only support 4 $product_servers, so $server 0-4. (I'm just being pedantic)"
