The OP is talking about taking a driver's test in Texas, therefore, the only relevant skills that his daughter need display are those that are relevant to the state of Texas' driver's test. What does how they drive in another part of the world have to do with being able to pass a driver's test...

Well, words do mean things and the word "jaunt" specifically means "a short excursion or journey for pleasure", so yes, when you start talking about trying to get to Texarkana from McKinney by going through Shreveport, or even Lindale, you are no longer talking about short or pleasurable, so I...

When you start talking about adding 72 miles to the trip, I think you've pretty much taken the concept of "jaunt" right out of the picture, no? :)

I need some help with this decision I'm facing right now. I'm kind of teetering on the fence because I've really coveted a Model S for a long time now and really want the free supercharging for life, but I don't know if I should go ahead and order now or wait until they come out with the new...

First, it's whompy wheels and now we have to deal with hoopty handles. This is NOT acceptable! Not acceptable just one little bit! (Imagine I'm speaking in an Aussie accent)

That's nothing new, it's always stated that. The old pano roof has always been the only option for a roof rack and the satellite antenna is incorporated into the roof rack anchors.

Yes, and it's people who make claims that the driver isn't responsible for the operation of a vehicle with driver-assistance features, like AP, that will induce further wastes of time and public resources by our legislators in writing up bills that feel the need to make the already obvious claim...

Maybe I missed an announcement somewhere, but exactly when was the claim made that the driver won't be responsible for the operation of a Tesla that has AP 2.0? It's attitudes and thought processes like the one you're displaying here that are helping to inspire legislators to write up bills...

I always scoff...yes...SCOFF, I TELL YOU...whenever I hear or read, "but I assure you that "_______" had nothing to do with our decision" from a politician. As if, when called out on their duplicious BS, they're just going to say "Oh well, you guys got me on this one. Yeah, gotta admit, I was...

If you notice, they set the cut off date for delivery of the "free SpC" orders at April 1st, so it's actually more of a Q1 push than a Q4 push because the numbers go by delivery, not order. The AP 2.0 announcement was more of a Q4 push. Because of production delay on any announcement that's...

Well, you say "it won't be long", but then you point to nine years from now, maybe we have different definitions of "long". You then say, "it's only a matter of time", with no indication as to what Tesla will be doing during that same span of time. Will they somehow be stuck in amber? Sure...

So, you responded to my statements directed towards someone else's comment, but you now admit that you don't agree with the point that I was originally countering? Pardon me, but what was your purpose in using my words to make this whole other point, other than to create a strawman with which...

You & I obviously hold differing opinions as to what "rational" & "reasonable" mean. :) One thing I think we do probably agree on, though, is that these people aren't really in the market for an EV anyway. BTW, I believe you meant the noun "rationale", rather than the adjective "rational".

This doesn't fit into the proposed "geofence every SpC within 200 miles of your house" that the OP was advocating for and it also doesn't address the point of my question. If I leave my house on a long-distance trip, say I'm headed to a destination that is 477 miles from my home, I will...

Sounds like a touch of insanity, to me. So, exactly who is this other car company that's offering free fuel for life from their continent-wide supercharging network that they're going to switch to, instead of purchasing the M3 that they have reserved?
