    I miss my 08 PPV, and want another one.

    I wish they had the sense to put a ZF8 in it!

    Yep, going to be heading there soon probably with my son actually to get him an SSV to turn into an over-landing vehicle.

    I loved the front seat in mine, it was super soft and well-bolstered. :)

    Tempted to trade in my Ram 1500 daily, sell my Boxster S, get a 911 for the weekend, and another PPV as a daily. But I might go for the 2015 revision this time.

    What? An EV Tahoe?

    I'm with you there. But it's naive to think that they can shut down EVs harder than they can new ICE cars. They are all cloud-connected. I actually work in IT in the big-data/cloud analytics space and have at least 1 major auto manufacturer as a customer and what they tell me is that the car...

    have you looked at late model Tesla resale values lately? The new battery packs are good for 1/2 million miles. There are videos of people with 200k miles on thier Teslas with more than 90% battery life remaining.

    A model 3 weighs 3600 lbs, the CT will weigh 7k. buy, I don't put shit tires on anything as it's the most important part of the car from a performance and safety perspective.

    What? An EV Tahoe?

    When you consider tax rebates and fuel savings, there's no way my Cybertruck will cost more than my crew-cab ram diesel, assuming they are roughly the same price around $65K. This is because I drive, on average, 30 miles per day and have for 10 years. 1 road trip over 500 miles per year, at...

    What? An EV Tahoe?

    It's called range anxiety. It would be RADICALLY cheaper to charge a Tesla at home than $400/month. A Tesla will roughly cost you about 1/9th as much to drive per mile as an ICE vehicle, yet have 2-3x the power/performance, if not more. I have several friends with Teslas, model Ss, Ys, even an...

    What? An EV Tahoe?

    EVs are actually much less mechanically complex than ICE vehicles are. Both have computers, and both could theoretically be shut down remotely. Both could be re-programmed to disable that feature, pull the transceiver/daughter card out, etc. You are kind of stretching in your complaints about...

    That can already shut your vehicle down right now through OnStar, and can listen to your private conversations, even if your phone is turned off.

    What? An EV Tahoe?

    There is some truth to what you are saying, but it's wrapped into one big sensationalist shit burger. EVs, particularly Teslas, are very easy to live with. If you are driving cross-country all the time, or don't have access to charging at home, they aren't really for you. But, for most...

    The Cybertruck's 500mile range will be perfectly adequate for me as I've taken maybe 4 trips in 6 years longer than that. Plus, I can put 300 miles in it at a super-charging station in an hour. Just find a super-charger near a lunch stop... problem solved.
