    ...A Zero Motorcycle!

    Okay, it's not fair at all. A used Zero can be had for $6K and even the fanciest one doesn't break $30K. You get two seats and no DC charging. But a Zero is a great complement vehicle. It can fit in places not even a compact car will go. And the DS and FX models are great offroad - and at...

    Boring Company LVCC switches to FSD!

    We knew this day was coming... but here it happened without fanfare. I wonder how long until it operates fully without drivers? It is a closed track. -Crissa

    Dreaming of my Cybertruck.

    (I promise there's a point) So my clothes washer died after seventeen years of near daily service. It was one of those special large, commercial-sized but all-in-one ventless units. It wasn't without its quirks, I had to tear it down every other year and fix something, clean out the heater...

    How to adhere things to steel? Via crossbar beam - Ford's method vs Tesla's (Sandy Munro video)

    The question of how Tesla is going to adhere things to the folded steel and avoid cathodic corrosion? Well... the secret is just a minute into this: Tesla takes a piece of steel and sticks it in the middle of a nylon injection molding machine to have pre-formed plastic through and against...

    Exoskeleton, Gigagasting, and The Limiting Factor

    Here Jordan Giesige covers how the new gigacastings work with the exoskeleton. -Crissa PS, the meat is nine minutes in, but we've discussed this so much, his diagrams and background should be helpful.

    Spending vs revenue in car-centric development (trigger warning, not politics)

    It's come up more than a few times, but I really like urban planning. And we all like trucks - at least the Cybertruck. So we want to get away from urban places. But making those urban areas stronger, perhaps ironically, makes our remote places more protected, too. Cool maps in this video...

    On the small end of things, Arcimoto Flatbed

    https://www.arcimoto.com/flatbed Highway capable, single seat. Does it get any smaller? The bed slides out to a full width, collapses down when not in use. Arcimoto also said DC charging is in the future.Pretty cool, tho spouse wants something with at least four seats in our fleet. -Crissa

    Lightning pre-orders? (Poll)

    I know alot of us have hedged their bets with more than one reservation. I have an Aptera and Silverado reservations; when I reserved the Cybertruck there weren't other options, and my budget has gotten better since. Lately, I've heard a bunch of people have been able to configure their Ford...

    So the Ford has a spare, right?

    So yeah, I guess it was there for looks? -Crissa

    This is why GM needs ads and Tesla doesn't...

    Tesla recalls 800+k cars over seatbelt chime

    https://www.repairerdrivennews.com/2022/02/08/tesla-issues-seatbelt-recall-on-over-817000-vehicles/ It's over the air, but... this also seems petty. I'm pretty sure all my manual transmission cars don't chime when I get back into them after leaving them idling until reaching the speed level...

    This is what Beta models can look like:

    Aptera has three alphas and several betas. As a smaller company with more to lose, they're making up media to keep their investors invested. This isn't something Tesla has had to do for like fifteen years, alas. -Crissa

    EVs don't need to be trailered to track day...

    As long as you can charge, no trailer needed! I was thinking about that when someone brought up the idea of trailering a roadster. Maybe with the roadster, or a bike, 'cause you want to bring more stuff, but... EVs don't have glass where the lights are, they aren't being worn out by road...

    Tesla to increase FSD price to $12k

    I know I'm not the first to post it on here, but I think it deserves its own thread. $12k is $100/mo over ten years, $200/mo over 5. The current monthly price of FSD is $199. That's now $5k more than I reserved mine at. -Crissa

    SilveradoEV 2024 deets finally revealed:

    They're dribbling them out, the articles haven't been written yet. It looks like the photo from yesterday, but the bed seems small but maybe isn't? I still don't think they'll get the range they want, and it looks absolutely chonking useless big compared to the Cybertruck. So: Midgate Unibody...
