I'm still a bit concerned about the prevalence of the CCS charging network, but a Taycan or even a Mach E might be may next move.

F THAT.

Eh, on the other hand, seriously I might just get another ICE.

Maybe one of the last Cadillac manuals?

Oy. On the other hand, the price of gas is going up and up. I may stop gratuitously feeding the Mazda high octane (gains a little of performance in the turbo engine.)

You'd look great in a CT5-V Blackwing

Actually I think it did pretty well since that driving scenario is very difficult, hell I would have issues driving there. I would hate be a engineer working on it with Musk yelling at me

So, Tesla is straight out literally robbing their customers by taking money out of their customers' bank accounts without authorization. Jesus.

edit: corrected typo to read correctly as, "taking money out of their customers' bank accounts without authorization."

I was wondering how Tesla planned to solve its profitability issue. Thanks for the update.

From the article, just this part is absurd.

Communicating with Tesla has always been a notoriously difficult affair, with much of the company’s public relations running strangely through CEO Elon Musk’s Twitter account. We’ve reported that Tesla has made it nearly impossible for publications to contact the company, so like CNBC, we’ve been unable to reach Tesla for a statement on this story.

Yes, this is stupid. I am deeply irritated by nearly everything to do with Tesla's corporate governance. I am further irritated by the fact that all of this nonsense aside they continue to make the best EVs out there, by a large margin.

I’m trying to figure out how this happened.

When I bought the Model 3, I paid at pickup by logging into my Tesla account and entering my banking info and clicking Pay. I saw the funds debited from my account the next day (normal ACH timing...). I authorized a one tune payment only.

I’m wondering if the site glitched and ran 2x or if Tesla batches these and sent the file 2x by accident...
