The difference is that in a casino you loose on average. In stock market, you win on average. Not to mention that stock market is much more a game of skill than game of chance (as is most of casino games). I did very well in stock market an

If it's possible, every car maker can "optimize towards benchmark". So is your theory that all car makers except Tesla are dumb and cannot optimize their range for EPA tests? That they are morally superior to Tesla and will s

by kjksf 6y ago
Just to be clear: EPA tests the cars and calculates the range, not Tesla (or any other car maker). Therefore Tesla cannot "overestimate" EPA range. If you think that EPA range is not accurate, then you can blame EPA. And since you

You're proving the OP's point with those links i.e. the car makers were lying about their plans for a decade and at this point I'll believe it when I see it. According to the first article you linked, in January 2018 Ford pro
