... this is why our Democrat friends are bashing up, torching and keying Teslas: Inside The Now-Shuttered Federal Agency Where Employees Lived ‘Like Reigning Kings’ Samuel, '04 Ruthiemobile
Fair enough. Last summer, a punk kid shot off his mouth at me with a MAGA chant while I was trying to charge my BMW. Since then, I carry a well tuned and practiced AR-15 with ready rounds. Road rage is real and a recent incident at COSTCO suggests the MAGAots don't like Tesla or EV cars. Bob Wilson
Perhaps it's more like people don't like EVs being forced on them with restrictions, mandates and guilt trips. Funny the sudden change of attitude lately.
Well I still like my 2019 Model 3 and my 2017 BMW i3-REx. If a MAGAot decides to shoot something other than their mouth at me, it is zeroed 0-200 yards and I measured the ballistics curve. Except for the noise and stink of poorly maintained gas and ICE cars, I don't care what others drive. In town, I roll up my windows and use "biohazard mode" as needed. When I drove Prius, same solutions. Even my last ICE car, a Toyota Echo, same problem and solutions. I prefer MAGAots drive pickup trucks and SUVs at the fastest rate they can . . . burning up their money. It drives up the price of petroleum products with the exception of the by-product, methane heating gas. The sooner the cheap stuff is gone, the better. Bob Wilson
While both sides have "mouth pieces", those you call MAGAots are not the turn coats destroying EVs. I've carried since before 18...to protect against ALL threats.
Just a couple of examples: Punk kid shooting off his mouth yelling MAGA chants at me last summer while I was charging my EV. The 'critics' of my using summon last Wednesday in the COSTCO parking lot. The MAGAot who forced the GSA to remove all EV chargers. Anti-Tesla and Supercharger vandalism before last year's November election. Since I want to keep my "Greenback Yankee Dollar" in my wallet for what amuses me, I see an opportunity, I want (not NEED) a second Tesla with HW 4.0 that came out in March of 2024. If others put their HW 4.0 Tesla 3 or Y on the used car market for the accelerated depreciation rate, I will smile and replace my 2017 BMW i3-REx. It also mirrors the 'Supply and Demand' that made AR-15s and ammunition so affordable. Before November, there was a lot of angst by the MAGAot crowd about @frodoz737 favorite group to hate, Democrats, minorities, gays, and hispanics. So back then the gun and ammunition manufacturers sold them for way more than the cost to manufacture and picked the MAGAot wallets. For example, my AR-15 sold new at ~$800 was available for clearance at $500. My feral hog hunting AR-15 round is ~$0.55/round. Bob Wilson Proud Partisan Democrat and former Marine
"Before November, there was a lot of angst by the MAGAot crowd about @frodoz737 favorite group to hate, Democrats, minorities, gays, and hispanics." If you are stating or implying I hate any of these groups you are dead wrong and I'm calling you out right here as a bold face liar. You really want this dance?
i will break bread (share a meal) with anyone within 200 miles of Huntsville AL. You are in luck as next week, I’ll head for Stanford NC via Knoxville. If you are reasonably close to that route, we can meet. Just identify the City and State and I’ll see if it close enough.. Just let me know which days you’d prefer. Bob Wilson
Excellent! I plan to witness the second stage Starship snatch when it is scheduled. I typically drive the Model 3 to Port Isabell which is just North of Starbase. On the way back, it will be easy to divert to DFW. Alternatively, any place in the Houston - Lake Charles area. It might be fun to run by the SpaceX and Tesla facilities . . . not that I expect anything but a drive-by. But there is another reason to visit Dallas. My best friend's widow lives in Dallas and I'd love to have a coffee with her. BTW, Fort Worth is where I bought my first Prius, a 2003, and drove it home to Huntsville. That car went 272,000 miles before the unrepairable part broke. It was the brake hydraulic pump on the firewall behind the brake and air conditioner lines and the engine. Bob Wilson
Breakfast tends to work best for me but we can work out the details when I'm in Port Isabel. My solar contractor is in New Orleans and I've always enjoyed visiting them. Bob Wilson
I want a HW 4.0 Tesla Y or 3 to replace my 2017 BMW i3-REx. So far, no empirical evidence of a wide-spread increase in that supply . . . but I am patient. Time is on my side because MAGAot solicitations complain about Tesla vandalism but only take direct contributions. These solicitations 'complain' but do not advocate buying a Tesla or TSLA stock. <GRINS> FYI, found one 2024 Model 3 with HW 4.0 in Houston for $30k. When I witness the next Starship launch, probably June-August, I'll survey again. Bob Wilson
The Chevrolet Dealership I use for service lost 3 people from their Body Shop (one was their Manager) to the Dallas Tesla Service Center right next to my Airport. Have not seen them for almost 2 years but had a great relationship. I could go by and rekindle...if you catch my drift. https://www.tesla.com/findus/location/service/cedarspringsroad
