Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

People that are buying the stickers are rubes. I don’t care what you think and anyone with an ounce of confidence shouldn’t either.
I’m convinced most of the anti Tesla rhetoric is coming from people who frankly are not Tesla (or any new car) customers anyway. If you’re actually in the market for an EV and want to compare range, charging network, dashboard UI+phone app quality (yes, all standard automakers are shit at software development, maybe hire people in SV), cost, vehicle options, maintenance + repair options (Tesla service isn’t run by the garbage dealership model and is actually good service and fairly priced) — then Tesla has been a clear winner for many years.
Feel free to go back to your dealership and waste half a day trying to buy a car. Every one else is still so far behind and if you get it, you get it.
As someone who drives an EV and has been watching the market for the last 2.5 years to see about maybe getting s different one soon: lol. Lmao, even. Lmfao, perhaps.
Have fun sitting at the shitty dealership while service comes to my house!
My car doesn't break, save one recall that happened and was fixed for free, had to go into the dealership because nobody can replace a battery in field when it's melted a little, I'd think
If you regularly need service though I guess that'd be nice, I'd just get a car with better QC, personally
👍
You can’t even do vehicle to load. Immediate skip even not counting Elon.
Incomprehensible statements… vehicle to load? Not sure there’s much an xc90 or a mache can do that MY can’t.
Weird that every other EV can do VTL
I had to google it. Got it, sure that’s a niche use case that the car doesn’t have. The only EV that I know advertises this feature is the Ford F150 lightning. Absolutely stunning sales on the car really showcase how useful that feature is. /s.
But ya the car has a 120v adaptor. Good enough for most people camping.
Niche use case that every other EV can do, where they can power entire house? Okay bullshit
Please tell me which other EVs can power a house? Having a simple inverter built in is dramatically different than having the ability to power a transfer switch input to your electrical panel replacing a generator. The F150 lightning can power your house. Your other evs cannot. I’m calling bullshit on you since you obviously know jack shit and don’t actually own anything.
