@kaanaricioglu @Satvik01490516 @PPathole@elonmusk@Tesla @HamzaFromMC wrong. In this case the tire is not applying the force to get the car moving, it's the rocket. The tire is just along for the ride.
@MickleShtick@elonmusk Because it's a wasted design. Focus on getting the main booster correct like they did with Falcon 9 instead of putting useless bandage as a solution.
@TeeeRevvor @FremontPD I charge full overnight and wake up to a full tank every morning. What's not to understand? It charges at rate of 31 miles per hour at home.
My model 3 goes for 320+miles on one charge, as can be seen going from SF to LA. Way more than "getting groceries"
@ticontrarian@FremontPD This is such a old fallacy. In California we can opt for 100% solar. Somehow the pollution of drilling oil wells, transporting crude overseas, refining it, then sending it to gas stations where they leak underground is conveniently forgotten.
@FremontPD@colinmjensen Tires doesn't explain $4800 in maintenance cost though. 39 Days in maintenance downtime? Can you elaborate more? Fremont is my city and I love to see more EVs in the fleet.
@TraderNatty @sova123k @ToddBertram1@Tesla I've had 2 repairs done on my Tesla. Prices were comparable as my other cars. It's sheetmetal just like other cars.
@edgarskovals @Doggie_wumpus @ToddBertram1@Maaris_E It cost me $12 to go 300 miles. We charge our cars overnight at off-peak rates of 16 cents/kWh in California. It takes about 25kWh to go 100 miles.
@lucasar81712511@ToddBertram1 Good points. Initial cost difference was ~$11k. This would be recouped in less than 2 years at which point the Tesla would be more profitable.
