I fail to see how the PPP is comparable to the $7500 rebate. The tax credit of $7500 goes to the taxpayer who bought the car. The PPP is a loan to your employer to keep you on the payroll. I can't "give back" any PPP money as I am not an employer.
The CARES act was a stimulus to the economy...
Correct. FSD is NOT auto pilot. Auto Pilot is enhanced cruise control for lack of a better term. You still have to be alert and paying attention. You are still driving the vehicle, even though it will be doing lane changes, maintaining lanes, slowing, accelerating, etc.
FSD will be no human...
Considering the election in November which could drastically change the landscape of congress and the white house, It is a bit premature to have Tesla create a new company just to get the rebate credit, when congress could do it next legislative session once the opposition to clean energy is ousted.
I am betting they are some from of LED, it would be unlikely there will be aftermarket replacements available (at least not in the traditional sense)
Also remember, there was a light bar above the windshield :)
An easy solution (and I am suprised no ones said this) is to have more than 1 charge port. Say one in the back by the rear tire and one in the front, maybe in the frunk? Only allow 1 to work at a time (so you can't plug in two chargers and over charge the battery) This would be an easy to do option.
I am also on the late 2022 or early 2023 bandwagon. Just knowing they have not broke ground on the new factory, getting permits, building the structure, setting up the lines, getting the first production prototypes run through etc. 24 months at a minimum if you ask me. China was able to erect...
I am betting these will be for helping with backing up / trailer hitching. I doubt this is the rear view camera as it would be blinded by any vehicle with headlights on.
I know this is for the US market, but I am wondering if this placement is a very bad idea. European license plates are far...
So here is a question for the hive mind.
I noticed where the buttons are to release the tailgate / roll up the cover and I think this is a bad design choice.
Does anyone else see this as a potential issue? They appear to be made from plastic so could be broken easily if you are rough on the...
Well maybe not....What defines a "Pickup truck?"
some of us older fellas (and some car enthusiasts) remember this little thing called an chevy El Camino. or a Ford Rachero. These were essentially a car with a truck bed...but was not a pickup truck.
I vote for TNT
Tesla's Nice Truck
Not sure I agree with his conclusion on the "Osborne effect"
Tesla could very well announce the new batteries will be available in the CT and the Roadster, but not current production models like the S, 3, and Y.
I point to another section of the article that says Tesla re upped a 3 year deal...
