80 would put it into an almost perfect range, to me. The goal to me is to basically completely break from from gas in one car. 80 miles would meet 99% of my one-way driving needs, rather than around 90% of my driving needs (and that last 10

Yeah. That's getting in the scary "I don't want to run out of juice" range, especially if there's any range of problems. I actually thought the range of the Tesla was 300 miles and 265 for 'real' driving;

I have to concur with this article. I was musing about what kind of electric car I would want if I had tons and tons of money. It wasn't a Tesla S, sadly. As much as I love Teslas and think they're amazing and awesome cars, they a

So, two thoughts: 1) this is the kind of slideshow that works effectively online and without vocals. All the words are on the slideshow in the first place. 2) So many of those slides were unnecessarily hard to read, and it would have been m

That is a really neat bit of fact; but, what does that have to do with what I was talking about? I really would like to know, it sounds like a really important insight, I'm just not sure what train of thought led to that.

No. It's a car, and has the power to kill people on software malfunction, making it a critical system. Critical systems are tend to go through a much greater and more robust form of testing.

Probably what you're not experiencing 100% of the time. You have plenty of examples of cars being bad, but I'm sure you also have examples of cars not being bad. Of not trying to hit you and of giving you a wide berth when you&#x2

That's not entirely fair. Maybe in some of the cases; but, I've seen people do some really, really, REALLY unwise things as pedestrians that they're lucky someone was paying a huge amount of attention so they weren't hit

Define "easily accessible". Does a few days later count? If so, the stock market isn't a bad place for money

I really hate that being used as a reference. There was a lot more going on in the Sigfried and Roy case than the news would talk about. The tiger had no intention of killing him or even hurting him (if the tiger did, he would have been dea

That part had strange wording. I'm assuming that that was one of the rumors. It could have been worded better, perhaps with a colon and then a list of rumors.

GTA V is also a game that easily costs a dollar an hour for play. That's much less than $10 for 2 hours. When looking at the price of games, you have to remember you're normally going to be spending much more time playing that gam

Have you considered leasing? That might be more financially reasonable for you. Then again, you may be in the money range where when you sell your car, it is worth more money than you have left on the loan, so you're more or less ahead

When you're not buying racing tires, it's not uncommon to find tires that last 50 or 70k miles. Those are the lifespans I expect in my tires. If I were using tires on a track, of course, those numbers would change since I would be
