    1-Million-Mile Tesla Owner Orders a Lucid Air

    Does this fellow have a job that requires so many miles or retired and just trying to break records?

    Leg Room Tall People & 1st Impression

    Average height for American males now is 5’9”. Probably figured into car design I assume.

    Inferior in the sense that my F250 truck, SL550 and wife’s XT5 have 95-100% of all features of the Air and they all work perfectly 100% of the time. Not one of them has been to the “shop” for any repairs. Have only had tires replaced on the XT5 and oil/Filter changes on all three. No battery...

    Hundreds of millions of ICE engines were broken in on test stands over the years, for obvious other reasons, but it was a standard in the industry. Henry Ford started this on the Model T engine. In this day and age a 1 in 500 failure rate of electric motors is huge. In my 45 year career we ran...

    My issue with these motor failures is my wife’s health which is terrible. We go to Dr’s appointments 2-5 times a week and the thought of a motor cratering in this heat out on the road with her on board is a bit concerning.

    The motors could be tested/run on a machine test stand before they are installed in the cars so no mileage would go on the cars.

    Still wavering on the fence

    I would love to see a tachometer on the Air and the look on passengers faces that are used to ICE rpm levels. Just how high are rpm levels at launch?😊

    Never ever use a regular car cover with a open trailer. No matter how well fitted and tight even the most minute wrinkle in the fabric will buffet in the wind and act like sand paper on the paint. Even the softest cover will do this. It will leave a haze on the paint in that area. I have hauled...

    PS- What is old is new again. The 1956 Messerschmitt had a steering yoke way before Tesla and the color for the 1925 Ford Coupe is 97 years before Zenith Red!

    problems and glitches

    I have cars that are over 100 years old. They all start and run every time and get me where I need to go. I never get locked out, the dash boards do not disappear while driving, tires do not explode when I run over a pot hole, I do not get lost driving them and they all have spare tires. They...

    problems and glitches

    I think you are missing the point. Yes software is complicated and hard to implement. No one is refuting that point. The point is we are being charged 139k-180k for a inferior product that actually works on vehicles that cost 1/3rd. the price. Work on software should have been started sooner...

    By renting yourself you will get a lot nicer vehicle of your choice rather than something not as drivable. I hear the newest Corvettes are pretty cool….😇

    They may be trying to “move the state of the art forward“ but in the mean time charging us regular folks a whole ton of our hard earned money for a inferior product. I wish corporate executives were paid by performance and results like they were years ago. In the past 25 years it appears many...
