Most vehicles have something called a differential which splits the power from the central drivetrain to each of the wheels on that axle. Unfortunately, due to the rules of physics if a tire starts slipping, then all of the power goes there and none to the tire that has traction. A locker locks...

No.

That would be. I'd never say it for those reasons either.

Driving it really put the underscore and exclamation point on the shitty build quality. If the demo is that bad...damn!! So yes, go drive it. You will both laugh and cry. I did learn however that if I need to be single I can just bring one of these home and she's out.

I was ready to buy the promised truck the split second that I could. I had told everyone that this was my plan. We really do need a truck, and having only a sedan was limiting. But I didn't want old-tech junk like the Lightning, so it was really only the CT for me. But then reality hit, the...

LOL... It's such a damn mess. Working on part 107, for no really super-specific reason. And put off by dealing with the stupidity of the FAA. A few years ago I got into a pissup with a local small airport owner and a team of FAA lawyers. That was fun. Actually, in all seriousness it really...

LOL, extremely unlikely. There are so many idiots doing so much worse. The entire flight starts from being illegal due to lack of proper lighting. Of course, all of the regs that were broken are useless and unrelated to safety, which is the entire state of drone regulation right now.

Portrait video for literal landscapes is a new level of awful. This looks like an FPV flight; it's a little more jumpy than most camera drones, but also could have been sped up. I've done some follow-me videos off road with a DJI Mini 4 Pro. This is a super-simple one that just shows the the...

Wait you wrapped a stainless steel vehicle in faux stainless vinyl??? Did I get that right? I get that it's brushed but still find it funny.

It's just a damn car. Get over yourselves. It's not your first born child.

No, you can't see that. I'm not aware of any way to see what they are actually GOING FOR. Just ads from dreamer owners.

No, I'm very familiar with the "problem."

Definitely, which Rivian is just now moving towards. Gen 2 cleans up 1.6 miles of wiring and goes towards a zonal rather than domain-based vehicle management system. They now make their own motors, not Bosch. Etc. Meanwhile I can put my huge-ass dirt bike in it, and also the rather large...

I tell this to Rivian people all the time. It's the same reason that the Apple ecosystem keeps people in it; cohesive, always works, and you never have to wonder if doing X will cause Y problem due to immature integration. Sometimes this gets me called a Tesla fanboi.

I gave up waiting for the CT and got a 2022 Launch Edition R1T. The lack of Autopilot on city streets is terrible. Here are my notes so far on the good/bad compromises. Rivian Tesla comparison Missing in comparison to Tesla: Autopilot on streets. Not charging notification when at...

That's hilarious, it's the same GIF that all my friends posted in response to sending them this abomination.

"You can't possibly make a Cyber Truck uglier than it already is."

That's super easy, try Google.

LOL, I can assure you that of all the people who have told me they wouldn't buy a Tesla because of the narcissistic man-child, not one would be able to deal with being on Reddit. I love the irony of the idiots on one extreme political side or the other having a struggle with someone making EVs...

Because I've held two CT reservations for years and would have bought one in a split second if I could have. That sounds fun, thanks for suggesting it.
