    Could this be the worst designed car ever made? I really wish we could have a Top Gear episode on it.

      I mean, how many times have they recalled these same, like, 5,000 trucks? This is at least the third massive recall.

        I would probably like it too if i didn’t have to pay for it and keep it and maintain it. These cars aren’t on the streets anymore in 10 years. They will never be street legal in a non shit hole country

        Yep. He wasn’t really reviewing the nuts and bolts, just the drive experience. I didn’t get the impression he got a ton of time with it and only spent an afternoon puttering around. It felt below his standard honestly for thoroughness.

          Top Gear itself was not kind to the Tesla Roadster when Clarkson reviewed it back in 2008 or whatever it was, though.

      Worth noting that both of these companies have essentially blank checks from the government and use it as a funnel for taxpayers to shareholders who then dont pay taxes. It’s a Ponzi scheme that just happens to make airplanes and shit people actually need.

      But are too scared to nationalize.

      Boeing (and McDonnell Douglas before them) actually made good planes when engineers ran the show. Then, the finance bros took over.

    The difference with the old trim is that the new one will have a better adhesive assembly and “a stud welded to the stainless panel with a nut clamping the steel panel to the vehicle structure.”

    It’s a good thing Elon doesn’t think “exposed screw heads are cool.”. This could have been fixed with a carbide drill bit and some self-tapping screws.

    Panels on that shit are glued together, so I guess they got ahold of stronger glue.

      Only because they wanted to huff it. The panel thing was just a coincidence.

    So what i gather is there’s probably a readily available solvent to dissolve the glue and make any Swasticar Wankpanzer fall the fuck apart?

      You can step up the scale of solvent molecular weights until you find one that gives the desired result, but I’m going to conjecture that regular old acetone will probably be quite sufficient.

        Neat. On a serious note, i do not personally recommend doing this; that shit flying off on a highway could kill somebody.

    That’s because Tesla is a data collection company, not a car manufacturer 😂

      I think the current power dynamic in the whitehouse may make the opposite more likely.
