don’t forget that you’ll need to remove the car seat to fold down the rear seats carrying one of those auto glass hammers/strap cutters is probably a better option unless Elon didn’t like the aesthetics of safety glass lol

iospace posted:The only problem I can think of about why Tesla didn't license the drivetrain is that it would likely require a patent, which is a pro and a con. For 17 years, only people you approve can use the drivetrain (I think), and they have to pay you for it (know this one for sure). Once those 17 years are up, anyone can use the drivetrain for free. You have to release how it works and such, which is why a lot of companies refuse to patent things. I wouldn't be surprised if Musk felt the same way here, given his ego. if your twenty year old tech doesnt have twenty years of incremental patents by the time it expires what are you even doing if you rely on twenty year old tech as a licensor why is being a full boat automaker going to make it better also giving away your patents lol but bosch doesnt get invited to fashion week, lear automotive doesnt get to save the world, delphi ceo doesnt get to do sick photo spreads in vanity fair

Media Bloodbath posted:are there any independent studies on whether or not EV cars actually are better for the environment if we look at the whole product lifetime incl. raw material sourcing? its been done a bunch to little effect. partisans on both sides will nitpick to death. did you include the fuel used by the coal mining trucks for evs in coal zones? what about pipeline construction and trucking for gas? people driving more due to more efficient vehicles etc etc also good for the environment is an ambiguous metric. better for co2? better on local non co2 emissions? less resource consumption? better recycling?

There was an underlying theme of “we have the experience, institutional knowledge, and professional management to actually deliver on what we’re saying” also, really sorry about the diesel thing, really

It's just mind boggling to me that people go out and treat these cars as if they were regular vehicles without an engine noise without once thinking about how fuckin dangerous the accumulated power is. my man if you think theres a lot of power in those batteries wait till you see how many mj are in a tank of Shell gasoline still, tesla lol
