My boss has one, and I recorded a little bit of (garbage) footage of me driving it. It is.....amazing. The feeling of the torque SHOVING you into the seat, no matter how fast you were already going, was phenomenal. It was like the Saturn V, you didn't just accelerate, you hit the next stage and it KICKED you into forward motion, despite already moving in that direction. Plus, the torque from the regenerative braking was amazing, gave you that nice engine braking feel, which helped keep things familiar in a vehicle that is almost anything but familiar. Its an amazing vehicle, and I don't think I ever looked at a performance car the same way after driving it.

" A good Life is Experence." It is actually comforting knowing that Mr Normal does make mistakes too. Everytime I made a mistake in one in my videos people tend to lynch me.
I drove a Tesla Model S last week...That car is the fucking future folks. In 40 years most people will be driving something like this - Maybe just not quite as fast. The feeling of raw torque you get from pressing the gas pedal is amazing - It's the funnest, fastest car I've ever driven. Just a shame I'll never be able to afford one.
It's only fun if you want to go in a straight line...but let's face it. Anyone who actually buys a Tesla only care about going in a straight line and expect everyone to move out of its pretentious way. This hunk of metal can't hold a candle in a course longer than 300 yards or involves both left and right turns.
trim tatoe Don't give me shit about hard working people. My dad leaves the house at 5:50 am every fucking day and comes home at 9pm with no breaks. He comes home and does his paper work and shit and sleeps at 11 to 12. He owns a small business in Oakland California and we live in san ramon. It's a miracle that he's still alive, my dad has terrible athsma and has trouble breathing daily. His work isn't easy either, he business is a small breakfast and burger joint. He comes home with cuts a oil burns almost daily. And I look around my city filled with an appartment complex filled with overworked underprivileged families surrounded by subrbian town homes with rich motherfuckers it pisses me off because do they really work that much harder then the poor people? Don't think I'm mad at you, I'm mad at the system. As Ice-T would say, don't hate the player, hate the game"
Here in the Netherlands they are becoming the new standard as taxis. And they do make sense being used for that purpose, just like the Mercedes E class made sense in the 80s and 90s. Even without the tax benefits for taxi drivers it makes sense: they are cheaper to run than those horrid diesel taxis out there. Still owning a Tesla as a private person is still unachievable for the regular guys out here.
banpeinet No. They don't make sense. The W124 chassis mercedes was used as a taxi because it's insanely over-engineered, it just doesn't break. Batteries on the other hand, do. Pour all the money you want at it, batteries have technical limits. Look at every other car, especially the prius. The prius is a part-time electric car and most of them have had to had their TWELVE THOUSAND DOLLAR battery packs replaced. This is already affecting newer cars, like the leaf. Using an electric car as a taxi is stupid, as you ~might~ get two years out of a battery, which for a Tesla, i imagine is well over $15,000, probably closer to $20,000. It just doesn't make any sense.
Skylar Garrett It does when you factor in fuel costs for a taxi over its lifetime. And newer electric batteries have electronic management, they should be fairly reliable. They are sold under a warranty... They will get better. Battery swapping has already gone the way of the dodo because even the current tech dosen't really need it.
Skylar Garrett BagelBytes ***** I agree with Zepherian. Here in the Netherlands the cost per liter diesel today is 1.30 euros. (That is 5.41 dollar per gallon) The consumption of a taxi using diesel is about 10km to 15km max on 1 liter of diesel. In the most ideal situation that is 8 cents per kilometer. Running a Tesla Model S you pay 3.8 euro cents per kilometer. Given that a taxi drives about 100000 kilometers per year this saves at least 4200 euro per year. The battery life of a Tesla Roadster was on average 85% after 100000 miles, so nothing to worry about with the Tesla Model S.
Skylar Garrett I don't want to cause a fuss, but that's way off. Off the meter! Faux news style! Can we all agree that the statement of Prius batteries costing $12K for every one of the 7 million Toyota and Lexus hybrid owners is complete bull out of the gate? Anyways, if anything, battery packs are just like an engine. You can have one small, inexpensive part that can cause the whole thing to fail. For batteries, that's just replacing one faulty module when the battery pack gets tired after 10 years, refurbishing the whole thing as if it were new. Typically, like a lot of car parts, they're salvaged from wrecks in scrap yards, Prius modules are cheap being around $50-$150, LEAF modules are online for $200, while modules from crashed Teslas are constantly being bought up for converting VW T1 to T2 vans and other classic cars. Yet there's plenty of Priuses and Ford Escape hybrids with well over 200,00 to 300,000 miles on them on the original battery pack, many of them being taxis in both coasts of the US. If they can last roughly 11 years of hard toil, then I'm sure the more advanced Li-ion batteries in the Model S and other cars would fare better. At least drop the nonsense about the batteries only lasting 2 years before replacing. They have at least 8 year warranties, so that makes your argument invalid. They're not your Lead-acid wet cells in your car that keep asking for a jump start, nor are they the laptop cells that bake on top of your lap or pillow. The prius we know, hate and love was first sold 11 years ago. If every one of them failed, we would know. banpeinet About taxis, electrics and hybrids are the perfect work horse. Still, there's not that many people who know or are too stubborn to be willing to know. I've met one taxi driver in Dublin in April and he told me it was the best investment he ever made. It was only 2013 when light came to him saving €6500 in 18 months and driving 55,000 km in a Nissan LEAF. Now, he probably saved another of that sum again by now. It was this guy that I met: www.siliconrepublic.com/discovery/2013/01/30/dublin-taxi-driver-claims-electric-car-saved-him-6500-over-18-months And it is catching on, I'm seeing a few more electric taxis, especially in the country side! Yet, there are a swarm of Prius taxis in Dublin, very common. The drivers certainly want it for some reason, importing to a tune of 300 of them a year from the UK. The second hand resale value is a result for that too, the cheapest and oldest ('04-'05) Priuses I can find are asking €5000 for over 100,000 miles on them, roughly the same price of any Passat or Golf of the same age and mileage. I can tell you (and not just from my own car) that they are predictably reliable, comfortable and efficient. Of the prius taxis I've took, talking to the drivers, they claim that while hauling people around and they are getting roughly 45mpg in city conditions, that's compared to Avensises, Passats and Primeras getting 25mpg if they're lucky.
That's a long, long way off. Only once you get three things will manual driving be largely outlawed: 1) An organized and electronically managed traffic system, whereby all of the automated cars are basically remotely managed by a network, maximizing efficiency. 2) Cybersecurity so good that managing the nation's cars on a network in an environment where even small errors can result in major accidents is not considered a massive vulnerability to terrorist or military attack. 3) An automated, networked system remotely managing automatic cars that is so reliable that errors of any significance don't happen. Those things are a long, long, LONG ways off. As in, probably only a thing once you get thoroughly reliable AIs.

I told myself a long time ago, that i'm never, ever going to buy a brand new car. But a Tesla... here i'll make a exeption. but i'll wait for the newer one, based on a BMW 3-series. i think it's going to abit more praktical for the common man, and much cheaper. my dad says he'd like to buy it with me, we're living under the same roof anyway. I tryed out a P85... you'd think a electric car does not make any sound, when you accelerate. but it does.. some kind of turbine-ish sounds and.. it sounds pretty darn cool.
Hi! I’m from the future’s future. I can’t tell you much without creating a universe destroying paradox, but I’ll put it like this: option the biodefense mode.
11:37 - Most profound statement ever made by RCR and the best explanation I've heard translating material objects into actual, meaningful experiences that should not simply be chalked up to the tired expression of "money can't buy you happiness." (It can't buy happiness, but it can buy means of experience).
It's a great car, but unfortunately here in the Bay Area they're so common you can blindly throw a rock and it'll strike a Tesla's windshield. That's not so much a problem of the car, more of the average buyer here who buys one to 'keep up with the Joneses' and use the car simply as a status symbol. They don't really care about the performance, they certainly don't care about the mileage or tax credits, they want them because other people want them. I sure hope this mentality is exclusive to my area because it's otherwise a very nice car (though I'd change the grille design, I can't unsee it with a Hostess Ding-Dong stuffed in it's mouth)
WittyDroog I don't think it's a matter of "keeping up with the Jonses" IMO. In the bay area you can't keep up with the Jonses - it's a losing battle because the Jonses probably have a 2 million dollar home. People buy them because it makes them feel good about not hurting the environment (while conveniently ignoring the pollution of those batteries once they're useless and the pollution created to produce them) as well as simultaneously getting great gas mileage and having a luxury car. It really comes off as a good car to commute in if you have the money to throw that way. I feel like people like it because it wraps them (mentally) in a security blanket that says they're doing everything right.
WittyDroog If that mentality funds Tesla to the point that in 10 years they can sell a similar specced car for around 30k I hope those semi rich asswipes keep keeping up with the joneses. Who cares? This is still car 2.0 and is the sort of automotive architecture I would like to see as standard in the aforementioned 10 years. I just hope I can fit some solar panels before so I have a home charging infrastructure setup. The idea of doing 100k kms a year for no fuel costs appeals to me :D
WittyDroog I doubt most people are buying them to keep up with the Joneses. Most of those people are buying them because they are AWESOME cars. All you need to do is drive one, and you'll want one too; doesn't matter whether or not the neighbor has one.
You basically described my exact experience. I had a costumer that came to my shop for.....well....tires... Then he had a TPMS sensor go out. So i had to take it for a "test drive" to re-learn the sensors. There was nothing like it.
I completely agree on everything you said about the interior. I remember my first time sitting in a Tesla and it was just....basic. Besides the giant pad of course. Still an amazing car.
God, inflation just smacked me in the face watching this. "It's a good cheese steak, but is it a $7 good cheese steak?" Sitting here like "I mean, $7 sounds like a real reasonable price for an alright cheese steak... How *old* is this video??" And only 6 years old. Jeez.
Great job with the songs Roman. Some of my favorite songs by some of my favorite bands. (Intro song was a parody of The Reason by Hoobastank and the outro was a parody of Helena by My Chemical Romance. For those who didn't know.)
CptnJCFG Several years ago our son (then 15 years old) suggested we buy stock in Tesla. He said to his mother..."Mom, you should take $40,000 out of your 401K and invest it in Tesla" Of course we laughed our asses off and gave him the typical response a parent would give a teenager who makes stupid suggestions. He then got a summer job for 2 Summers in a row. Saved up all his money and invested that money in Tesla. Well, he's now 20 years old and has helped his mom and I pay for college with his Tesla investment and still has a little left in stocks which he's holding on to for a down payment on a car after college. His mother and I, on the other hand, wake up in the morning and the first thing we do, before brushing our teeth, is kick ourselves (REAL HARD) in the balls for laughing and making light of our son's suggestion 5 years ago. Today we would have had enough money to buy a nice home for ourselves, something we have struggled to accomplish in our lives. So my friend, I "more" than agree with your statement!
Eddie Lopez we all carry that one regret when investing lol (mine is netflix), better not let that eat you up. There are always new opportunities. But hold on to tesla, remember they also are also big on energy and that is about to take off. Your kid is going places, hopefully in a tesla of his own!
Mark Lee However, that being said... electric cars are not my cup of tea. The amount of discipline required to charge a car everyday... hell, I am practically addicted to my phone and I forget to charge it overnight occasionally. Maybe some day, but that day isn't here. Yet.
rubiks15 That is a good point. I have a hard time putting the Tesla into the weekday/weekend categories though. On one hand - it's economical. Assuming you still spend more on it with the purchase than you would on a Prius in 5 years, that everyday money-saving is still psychologically good. That means it's probably good for weekday driving, but then you might run out of juice on the way home and be late for dinner. Then it's best for weekends, cause it's fast and you probably don't have anywhere to rush... but if you're anything like me, you want a 2-door manual FR for weekends. If I had the funds, the struggle would be very real :D
Shayne Wolfe I'm fairly certain he is talking about the VW Phaeton, there is nothing else ever made by VW in the modern age that could directly compare to a Model S.
The sound that came from Mr.RCR when he opened up the throttle reminded me exactly of when I picked up my '04 GSXR600 a couple of weeks ago(my first big bike) and I made exactly the same noise when I opened up the throttle.
he's probably run into a few cars where you have to push it down and formed a bad habit, got a VW that something got damaged so now you gotta slam the hood or punch it otherwise it stays open partially
This totally lived up to my expectations. Good job! I would like to comment on your assertion that Romeo and Juliet is a tragedy, though. For me, it's a romance that says love is so beautiful that people die for it. Anyone who's been in love could tell you, that, no matter how illogical that is. It's a psa that says "if you're in love and you feel like killing yourself, you're not alone." Obviously, the subtext is "don't do it." One learns to be callous and cynical towards that vile biochemical compulsion: love. It, in the end, it's like the Sun; you need it, but it can kill you.

A good life is experience...
I've been to the bottom of the sea in a submarine. (A tourist sub, but still...)
I've put an airplane into a spin and let it recover itself. (Cessna 152 with an instructor, but still...)
I've held a full grown tigers head on my lap and fed baby tiger from a bottle. (In the tiger-monastrary in Thailand, but still...)
I've sat in the darkness of the African savannah at midnight, listening lions roar. (On a safari-trip, but still...)
I've stood near the top of Angor Wat and looked at the results of humans working together. (During a guided tour, but still...)
I've done all this and much more, but when i decline to go the bar to get drunk with my coworkers, they say: Come on! Live a little! Don't you want to do something with your life rather than sit at home?
It never occurs to them that i sit at home and don't drink so that i can have money to experience something more than the taste of alcohol and the load voices of people trying to shout over the music. Yet they consider themselves the adventurous ones because they go out drinking on the weekends...

Quite literally the best, funniest car review I've seen PERIOD. 2 thumbs way up.
this IS a regular car, they use them as friggin taxi cabs in Amsterdam and because of all the tax breaks it is a super popular company car in Scandinavia and the Netherlands.
Liked the review!
jfv65 Those must be some huge tax breaks for such an expensive car to be a taxi.
This review is just so good on so many levels. Its funny because some of RGR's reviews can be kind of annoying but sometimes he just impresses me.

It is actually comforting knowing that Mr Normal does make mistakes too. Everytime I made a mistake in one in my videos people tend to lynch me.
I drove a Tesla Model S last week...That car is the fucking future folks. In 40 years most people will be driving something like this - Maybe just not quite as fast. The feeling of raw torque you get from pressing the gas pedal is amazing - It's the funnest, fastest car I've ever driven. Just a shame I'll never be able to afford one.
That won't happen with the way our economy is going
This car doesn't have a gas pedal.
I found the lack of engine noise too creepy.
It's only fun if you want to go in a straight line...but let's face it. Anyone who actually buys a Tesla only care about going in a straight line and expect everyone to move out of its pretentious way. This hunk of metal can't hold a candle in a course longer than 300 yards or involves both left and right turns.
They need to make charging one be as fast as filling a fuel tank. Biggest drawback in my opinion for this car

Viewing in 2020 just hear Mr Regular say the future is going to be okay
Here in the Netherlands they are becoming the new standard as taxis. And they do make sense being used for that purpose, just like the Mercedes E class made sense in the 80s and 90s. Even without the tax benefits for taxi drivers it makes sense: they are cheaper to run than those horrid diesel taxis out there.
Still owning a Tesla as a private person is still unachievable for the regular guys out here.
banpeinet No. They don't make sense. The W124 chassis mercedes was used as a taxi because it's insanely over-engineered, it just doesn't break. Batteries on the other hand, do. Pour all the money you want at it, batteries have technical limits. Look at every other car, especially the prius. The prius is a part-time electric car and most of them have had to had their TWELVE THOUSAND DOLLAR battery packs replaced. This is already affecting newer cars, like the leaf. Using an electric car as a taxi is stupid, as you ~might~ get two years out of a battery, which for a Tesla, i imagine is well over $15,000, probably closer to $20,000. It just doesn't make any sense.
Skylar Garrett That much for a battery... uggh
Skylar Garrett It does when you factor in fuel costs for a taxi over its lifetime. And newer electric batteries have electronic management, they should be fairly reliable. They are sold under a warranty... They will get better. Battery swapping has already gone the way of the dodo because even the current tech dosen't really need it.
Skylar Garrett BagelBytes ***** I agree with Zepherian. Here in the Netherlands the cost per liter diesel today is 1.30 euros. (That is 5.41 dollar per gallon) The consumption of a taxi using diesel is about 10km to 15km max on 1 liter of diesel. In the most ideal situation that is 8 cents per kilometer. Running a Tesla Model S you pay 3.8 euro cents per kilometer. Given that a taxi drives about 100000 kilometers per year this saves at least 4200 euro per year. The battery life of a Tesla Roadster was on average 85% after 100000 miles, so nothing to worry about with the Tesla Model S.
Skylar Garrett I don't want to cause a fuss, but that's way off. Off the meter! Faux news style!
Can we all agree that the statement of Prius batteries costing $12K for every one of the 7 million Toyota and Lexus hybrid owners is complete bull out of the gate?
Anyways, if anything, battery packs are just like an engine. You can have one small, inexpensive part that can cause the whole thing to fail. For batteries, that's just replacing one faulty module when the battery pack gets tired after 10 years, refurbishing the whole thing as if it were new. Typically, like a lot of car parts, they're salvaged from wrecks in scrap yards, Prius modules are cheap being around $50-$150, LEAF modules are online for $200, while modules from crashed Teslas are constantly being bought up for converting VW T1 to T2 vans and other classic cars. Yet there's plenty of Priuses and Ford Escape hybrids with well over 200,00 to 300,000 miles on them on the original battery pack, many of them being taxis in both coasts of the US. If they can last roughly 11 years of hard toil, then I'm sure the more advanced Li-ion batteries in the Model S and other cars would fare better.
At least drop the nonsense about the batteries only lasting 2 years before replacing. They have at least 8 year warranties, so that makes your argument invalid. They're not your Lead-acid wet cells in your car that keep asking for a jump start, nor are they the laptop cells that bake on top of your lap or pillow. The prius we know, hate and love was first sold 11 years ago. If every one of them failed, we would know.
banpeinet About taxis, electrics and hybrids are the perfect work horse. Still, there's not that many people who know or are too stubborn to be willing to know. I've met one taxi driver in Dublin in April and he told me it was the best investment he ever made. It was only 2013 when light came to him saving €6500 in 18 months and driving 55,000 km in a Nissan LEAF. Now, he probably saved another of that sum again by now. It was this guy that I met: www.siliconrepublic.com/discovery/2013/01/30/dublin-taxi-driver-claims-electric-car-saved-him-6500-over-18-months
And it is catching on, I'm seeing a few more electric taxis, especially in the country side! Yet, there are a swarm of Prius taxis in Dublin, very common. The drivers certainly want it for some reason, importing to a tune of 300 of them a year from the UK. The second hand resale value is a result for that too, the cheapest and oldest ('04-'05) Priuses I can find are asking €5000 for over 100,000 miles on them, roughly the same price of any Passat or Golf of the same age and mileage.
I can tell you (and not just from my own car) that they are predictably reliable, comfortable and efficient. Of the prius taxis I've took, talking to the drivers, they claim that while hauling people around and they are getting roughly 45mpg in city conditions, that's compared to Avensises, Passats and Primeras getting 25mpg if they're lucky.
"The future is gonna be okay.' Yeah, as long as the government doesn't outlaw driving after the rise of automated cars.
That's a long, long way off. Only once you get three things will manual driving be largely outlawed:
1) An organized and electronically managed traffic system, whereby all of the automated cars are basically remotely managed by a network, maximizing efficiency.
2) Cybersecurity so good that managing the nation's cars on a network in an environment where even small errors can result in major accidents is not considered a massive vulnerability to terrorist or military attack.
3) An automated, networked system remotely managing automatic cars that is so reliable that errors of any significance don't happen.
Those things are a long, long, LONG ways off. As in, probably only a thing once you get thoroughly reliable AIs.
@@Raptor747 I am guessing decentralized will prevail over central control. A bunch of completely independent non networked agents following a common rule set will be way more flexible and resilient than any central system will ever be.
@@Raptor747 Number 2 will never happen. But we will have the network regardless.

I told myself a long time ago, that i'm never, ever going to buy a brand new car.
But a Tesla... here i'll make a exeption. but i'll wait for the newer one, based on a BMW 3-series. i think it's going to abit more praktical for the common man, and much cheaper. my dad says he'd like to buy it with me, we're living under the same roof anyway.
I tryed out a P85... you'd think a electric car does not make any sound, when you accelerate. but it does.. some kind of turbine-ish sounds and.. it sounds pretty darn cool.
Hi. I'm from the future. I just got my "newer one, based on a BMW 3-series" (aka Model 3). It's AWESOME!!!

LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL. i am in love with this channel. when you guys get 200k, i'm gonna make a video dedicated to you guys.
It's a great car, but unfortunately here in the Bay Area they're so common you can blindly throw a rock and it'll strike a Tesla's windshield. That's not so much a problem of the car, more of the average buyer here who buys one to 'keep up with the Joneses' and use the car simply as a status symbol. They don't really care about the performance, they certainly don't care about the mileage or tax credits, they want them because other people want them.
I sure hope this mentality is exclusive to my area because it's otherwise a very nice car (though I'd change the grille design, I can't unsee it with a Hostess Ding-Dong stuffed in it's mouth)
I wanna know what side of the Bay Area you live in cause I hardly see any and I usually only see one... Like literally one all the time
Melo Kix I live in the south bay and I see them pretty frequently.
WittyDroog I don't think it's a matter of "keeping up with the Jonses" IMO. In the bay area you can't keep up with the Jonses - it's a losing battle because the Jonses probably have a 2 million dollar home. People buy them because it makes them feel good about not hurting the environment (while conveniently ignoring the pollution of those batteries once they're useless and the pollution created to produce them) as well as simultaneously getting great gas mileage and having a luxury car. It really comes off as a good car to commute in if you have the money to throw that way. I feel like people like it because it wraps them (mentally) in a security blanket that says they're doing everything right.
WittyDroog If that mentality funds Tesla to the point that in 10 years they can sell a similar specced car for around 30k I hope those semi rich asswipes keep keeping up with the joneses. Who cares? This is still car 2.0 and is the sort of automotive architecture I would like to see as standard in the aforementioned 10 years. I just hope I can fit some solar panels before so I have a home charging infrastructure setup. The idea of doing 100k kms a year for no fuel costs appeals to me :D
WittyDroog I doubt most people are buying them to keep up with the Joneses. Most of those people are buying them because they are AWESOME cars. All you need to do is drive one, and you'll want one too; doesn't matter whether or not the neighbor has one.
i've spent my saturday alternating between cleaning my house and binge watching your reviews.

Great review!
I agree about the interior. It's nice but it's not $100k nice. You clearly pay for technology and not for luxury and comfort.
Holy shit the owner is Ainsley Harriot! :D
You basically described my exact experience. I had a costumer that came to my shop for.....well....tires...
Then he had a TPMS sensor go out. So i had to take it for a "test drive" to re-learn the sensors. There was nothing like it.
Given my almost irrational hatred for this car, this review was surprisingly well-balanced. Good job, Mr. Regular.
I completely agree on everything you said about the interior. I remember my first time sitting in a Tesla and it was just....basic. Besides the giant pad of course. Still an amazing car.
Dat bioshock reference
TheAxio300 where
Yo where 😭
I really adored the oblique Bioshock super-libertarian reference in your commentary. "Isn't a man entitled to the sweat of his own brow?"
God, inflation just smacked me in the face watching this. "It's a good cheese steak, but is it a $7 good cheese steak?"
Sitting here like "I mean, $7 sounds like a real reasonable price for an alright cheese steak... How *old* is this video??" And only 6 years old. Jeez.
Crazy this car is 6 years old now and could come out today and still be top of line n state of the art

A Bioshock reference whilst reviewing a Tesla. Mr. Regular, you are a man of taste and culture.
That screen, fancy as fuck, looks useless in the sun. Also makes you take eyes off the road as you can't just operate tactile buttons with one hand.
Great insight pointing out the airbag warning sticker. I'll never look at my own car the same again.
The funny thing to me is, id rather buy tesla stock than a tesla sedan. Well, until the suv is out. Then it's going to be a good time to be alive.
CptnJCFG Several years ago our son (then 15 years old) suggested we buy stock in Tesla. He said to his mother..."Mom, you should take $40,000 out of your 401K and invest it in Tesla" Of course we laughed our asses off and gave him the typical response a parent would give a teenager who makes stupid suggestions. He then got a summer job for 2 Summers in a row. Saved up all his money and invested that money in Tesla. Well, he's now 20 years old and has helped his mom and I pay for college with his Tesla investment and still has a little left in stocks which he's holding on to for a down payment on a car after college. His mother and I, on the other hand, wake up in the morning and the first thing we do, before brushing our teeth, is kick ourselves (REAL HARD) in the balls for laughing and making light of our son's suggestion 5 years ago. Today we would have had enough money to buy a nice home for ourselves, something we have struggled to accomplish in our lives. So my friend, I "more" than agree with your statement!
Eddie Lopez we all carry that one regret when investing lol (mine is netflix), better not let that eat you up. There are always new opportunities. But hold on to tesla, remember they also are also big on energy and that is about to take off. Your kid is going places, hopefully in a tesla of his own!
Eddie Lopez Are you married to her anymore?
nigmosh65 LOL!!..... yes I am (that poor woman!).

Dude, This guy is freaking outstanding. Favorite on TH-cam!
When I first heard of that car it was basically everything I came to expect from a future car watching Back To The Future and Knight Rider.
Mark Lee However, that being said... electric cars are not my cup of tea. The amount of discipline required to charge a car everyday... hell, I am practically addicted to my phone and I forget to charge it overnight occasionally. Maybe some day, but that day isn't here. Yet.
Mark Lee Soon they will charge with induction plates on their parking spaces...
rubiks15 That is a good point. I have a hard time putting the Tesla into the weekday/weekend categories though. On one hand - it's economical. Assuming you still spend more on it with the purchase than you would on a Prius in 5 years, that everyday money-saving is still psychologically good. That means it's probably good for weekday driving, but then you might run out of juice on the way home and be late for dinner. Then it's best for weekends, cause it's fast and you probably don't have anywhere to rush... but if you're anything like me, you want a 2-door manual FR for weekends. If I had the funds, the struggle would be very real :D

Which VW?
Shayne Wolfe I'm fairly certain he is talking about the VW Phaeton, there is nothing else ever made by VW in the modern age that could directly compare to a Model S.
iiBetrayforAR Nah, the Jetta for sure.
iiBetrayforAR don't forget about the Veyron
Shayne Wolfe Jetta. The whole hate-filled Jetta video? Cunning misdirection.
catfish552 I'm inclined to agree although i wish they would review a VW again.
The sound that came from Mr.RCR when he opened up the throttle reminded me exactly of when I picked up my '04 GSXR600 a couple of weeks ago(my first big bike) and I made exactly the same noise when I opened up the throttle.
You should never press the bonnett close. You risk bending it. Just drop it from 5 inches or so.
he's probably run into a few cars where you have to push it down and formed a bad habit, got a VW that something got damaged so now you gotta slam the hood or punch it otherwise it stays open partially
Nope. Tesla specifically says to press it --never to drop it.
This totally lived up to my expectations. Good job!
I would like to comment on your assertion that Romeo and Juliet is a tragedy, though. For me, it's a romance that says love is so beautiful that people die for it. Anyone who's been in love could tell you, that, no matter how illogical that is. It's a psa that says "if you're in love and you feel like killing yourself, you're not alone."
Obviously, the subtext is "don't do it." One learns to be callous and cynical towards that vile biochemical compulsion: love. It, in the end, it's like the Sun; you need it, but it can kill you.
Everytime i go past a car dealership i think "naah, my car is just fine".
But then you see this thing driving by..
and then you're like... nah... my car is fine.
***** And I'm like... it's nice, but it's not that nice. I'd rather have an M3.
And then you abuse your car and kick the shit out of yourself mentally for not being rich
This guy is the best.
I lost my shit at the Andrew Ryan reference; sure, not obscure, but... it unexpectedly caught me by surprise. Made me laugh.

I support these cars, especially the auto drive mode. I live in Florida and drive on the turnpike and i-95. I've SEEN how people drive.
