>turns your road trip into a sightseeing tour.

Why do you guys hate it? I think cars will just be like appliances in the future. Having an autonomous vehicle like Tesla will be like having a fridge/dishwasher.

Thesethings are fucken amazing to drive, with so much raw power.
If you decide you don't want to drive, you can just have the car drive for you

>>28701842 (OP)
i enjoy driving.
i do not like all the stupidly gay and unnecessary technology/gadgets in teslas.
i'm wary of a car that requires OTA's for basic, basic, things that the jeets fucked up.

make an EV that just leaves me alone and stays out of my way; and behaves like a normal, 2010 era ICE vehicle, and we'll talk.
my car does not need to phone home to the mothership with my driving habits, recharging stops ect
>inb4 you have a cell phone
Yes, and they're now virtually mandatory to have, and it pisses me off to no end all the cunty surveillance and tracking that comes along with it.
ADDING MORE SURVEILLANCE TO OUR LIVES IS NOT A GOOD THING YOU REDDITARD TWATS.

I don't hate EVs but Tesla fanboys trying to insert themselves into the car community is pretty annoying.

For me it's not the car, it's the drivers
Generally Tesla owners have one of if not the heaviest car on the road and equally do not give a shit about driving. So it's the perfect storm of dangerous vehicle and driver who either isn't paying attention or doesn't know how to drive

Guys Tesla M3 from 2020 are going as low as 25k Euro with about 60k miles. Should I do it? This is exceptionally cheap for long range EV.

>>28701911
FSD has like one of the lowest crashes per miles. Out of any other cars.

>>28701920
Have you driven one? They are fucking sick.
Tbh id get the y series though

>>28701911
Then why do teslas have lower accident rates than other brands?

>>28701969
I'm done with driving SUV. I want sedan. They're just more fun to drive and more practical in traffic.

>>28701969
Have you driven a y? Those things actually fucking suck to drive

>>28701979
I geniunely don't understand why people opt for this gay ass white color. I get the other color variants cost slightly more but you get such a better looking car for just a few thousand more. It's absolutely worth it to make you not part of this white car toy blob.

>>28702053
This one has very defined shapes that make it look great in white as it accentuates those shapes. Tesla is fairly shapeless why white does it no good.

There's notbing "wrong" with the concept of auto mouse cars.
Its how theyre implemented.

Look what happens in any futuristic movie with them.

I use a chinese dumbphone. I can make phone calls, send text messages, and get step by step map directions if I want. get about 7 days of battery life on standby. with light usage, about 4 days. T9 keyboard. cost $40 brand new.

>>28701975
sedans are terrifying when you're on the highway and the other vehicles are either:

1.) lifted trucks driven by soccer moms doing their makeup and on their phones
2.) 18 wheel tractor trailers driven by illegal Sikhs with No Name Given CDLs and zero training

>>28701975
if you dont live in weimerica or canada, then yes sedans are very comfy. for the few times you need to purchase large items, just have them delivered, or have a separate old beater truck for that.

>>28701842 (OP)
Because I like driving. If you don't, that's fine. But don't make it my problem and try to regulate fun cars off the road

>>28701856
What, is it broken?

>>28701842 (OP)
Because if I wanted a sightseeing tour, I'd go in one, not a roadtrip you dumb nigger

>>28702482
based and truth-pilled.

also a convertible is way better if you are doing mountain road driving. you also want to be hearing an actual car. do the touring in a JDM or classic british sports car, taking lots of stops at scenic and small hiking spots.

insane how bugmen think that sitting inside a tesla on autopilot with a million screens flashing at you at max brightness is "sightseeing" LOL

>>28702585
Unless you're an exhibitionist.

Teslas have their place. I can't think of a better town car for errand drives that start and end at home with a 220v plug available. If you’re going to be stuck at stoplights and sitting in traffic, might as well be in a numb pod that drives for you. Having a killer sports car in those situations is like going to a look but no touch strip club. Sure, it's all right there, but you can't use any of it.

Internal combustion engines and vehicles powered by them are a show of power and triumph of man
We harnessed fire to cook our and explosions to carry our asses
Electric cars lack it
They lack soul
I could go about not being able to change anything in them without few degrees or atleast coding knowledge but I wont
They are lame
And this looks like a rape baby of a ford mondeo and a cuckover
When I want to see pretty sights I go to a forest and watch squirrels fuck

>>28701979
>Have you driven a y? Those things actually fucking suck to drive
Why do you say that? I've driven a Model 3, and liked it, but I thought the Model Y would be better since I was taller?

>>28702647
this might be the most retarded thing i read all day

>>28701842 (OP)
I'm in the mountains almost every weekend. An EV would eat into my valuable mountain time. I see people using the chargers at the shopping center. I can pull up to the center, fuel up my vehicle, buy my groceries and drugs for the week and the people that pulled up to the chargers are STILL fucking around on their phones trying to get their car to charge. No fucking thank you. An EV would be more like a cooler that I need to add ice to every couple days or a dishwasher that requires me to start a fire to heat the water.

>>28702657

Model 3s are lighter than most cars, even new ICEs for sale right now. (3500lbs)
Sure it's 15% heavier than your 00s shitbox, it's also 4x more powerful.

>>28701842 (OP)

>>28702053
White looks cheap and clapped on all new cars I feel like.
There was a point when white wasn't the base trim colour.

>>28702382
I'm happy I'm not American.

>sight seeing
>in reality you're sitting in a shopping center parking lot while charging

>>28702703
good cars don't exist. just ask /o/

>>28702965
I'll be sitting at a rest stop eating lunch on a 35 min charge while gasfags pretend they can go without eating or pissing 10 hour straight.

>>28701920
25k? I’m planning to buy a 2018-2019 one for 16k

>>28702976
But EVs run out of juice after only 2 hours of spirited drive. So 2h drive, then 1h charge to drive for 2 more hours sounds sad as fuck

>>28703080
Not a problem on a Tesla, braking recharges the battery, so it actually gets better range than driving on a highway. Next!

what's the longest road trip you've had to take? :)

>>28702976
Why would I hang around subhumans and consume slop when I can just pull over somewhere, take a piss and cook a steak?

>>28704069
Sad to think about how there'll be a Tim Horton's full of jeets on that road three years from now.

>>28702002
White is one of the premium color options. The standard color is the grey.

>>28704069
Because you will never cook a steak on the side of the road, you're just pretending how "based" you are

>>28704171
But I do almost every weekend. Enjoy your containment zone.

>>28704069
Where is this? I'll bet you that Tesla superchargers are not that far away from here. Also the latest Tesla Model 3 has WLTP range of 750km which in real life is about 500km. There is no way you drive that far routinely on your weekend day trips. Even if you do, 15 min charging break is hardly a big deal.

>>28704234
That stretch of road is ~250kms long with no cell service or charging stations. You can hit the final stretch only to have to turn around by an avalanche across the road. It's definitely not a place you want to be in when you're "running on fumes", EV or ICE. EV range is half the predicted range in the winter which is cutting it too close for winter travel. This is why most people with EV's still take their ICE vehicle skiing or snowboarding. a EV comparable to my adventure rig is going to take a fuck of a lot longer than 15 minutes to top up. 15 minutes is still 15 minutes that can be spent on drinking a beer around a fire. Seems a bit better than listening to a whining supercharger and jeet music for 45 minutes.

>>28704263
Alright Max. Watch out for Immortan Joe while you're out and about in that no man's land of no electricity or satellite coverage. This surely represents a normal weekend trip for normal people.

>>28704267
Ahh of course the euro can't comprehend space or the ability to have fun in nature.

>>28704276
It does feel nice knowing I can visit the most wonderful nature spots in Europe and there will still be electricity and satellite coverage wherever I am. But in Mad Max America, I guess people just accept not being able to make a phone call for several hours of driving?

>>28704091
ironically, the white man demolished the natural landscape to put an ugly ass road in the middle lol.

>>28704345
most recent cell phones can text via satellite
you have to have a decently clear view up at the sky and point the phone in the right direction and it takes 30-60 seconds to load and you have to keep it pointed at the satellite to load replies, but it works if you need it
but yeah, must of the hillier parts of america don't have cell phone reception at all

>>28701842 (OP)
>will turn into appliances in the future

Jeremy Clarkson also said:
>electric cars are white goods

>>28704220
Yeah, sure you do

>>28703084
But you don’t brake much on a highway. Try driving 120mph for 2h and see where your battery level will end up

>>28704562
Teslas can do that easily. Good luck even reaching 120mph in your shitty Sunfire

>>28704355
Jeremy Clarkson is also a fat retarded boomer that in today's climate would have been a nobody if he had started from zero.

>>28701853
EVs aren't going to be fun to drive until they get lighter than 3500lbs
And that's the bare minimum

>>28703084
I too miss the troll science posters

>>28701842 (OP)
>Tesla will be like having a fridge/dishwasher.
This is why I hate EVs.

And there's no reason why they couldn't make ICE vehicles have that autonomous driving gimmick.

>>28704345
Yes, and we like and want to keep out that way city slicker. Stay out.

>>28702378
Model?
