The thread is cute, witty, humorous, and the trucker engaged in some reprehensible behavior. But, the OP is the instigator and in the wrong. The first clue is that we see six vehicles pass on the right before the truck appears, digit extended. That is clear evidence that the OP should not be in...

A very kind and generous offer, and thank you for that. Geography is working against this opportunity as neither of our residences are anywhere near you, and we're in the midwest for the Summer. Therefore, I must respectfully and regretfully decline an offer I would otherwise most certainly find...

LOL....I'm getting by meanwhile with another 3 Series....at least it has a "3" in it meanwhile! :D (6 months old...no issues to report;))

Likely not. Once I saw the vehicle on display at the Las Vegas showroom, I knew the program was not ready for volume production. As discussed in an earlier thread, the build flaws on that display vehicle were apparent. Had I gone ahead anyway, the chances are just as good I'd have been one of...

Surely, you cannot be serious. As one who very much wanted to have a M3, with a 1.5 year old deposit, but then became more and more disenchanted as more issues were discovered, I don't recall reading anyone here who expected perfection. But, the list of design and manufacturing problems...

I don't know, but I would confirm with a reliable hand-held digital gauge.

Balance is a wheel/tire assembly issue and results in vibration when lacking, either through the steering column/wheel (front) or seat cushion (rear). The symptoms you describe could possibly be as simple as 1) driving on a road with a severe crowning to the pavement, 2) uneven tire inflation...

Elon's response, if that is what he said, is nonsensical. The new FMVSS requirement was promulgated quite a while ago before taking effect. Everyone in this industry (where I also work) has known and understood the measures needed to be taken. The analysis demonstrated the different (and less...

Hang on for Polestar Model 2

After I got my deposit back, I gave up on the Model 3 for a 2018 BMW 330i GT. $0 down/$492/month for 36 months.The overall size and interior room were critical, and I traded-off waiting one more cycle for my first BEV, as there was nothing comparable available now. However, with the Polestar...

I think that is a very valid reason to cancel, and did so a while back (leasing one more/last? ICE vehicle), even before the current full list of quality bugs and craftsmanship issues arose, but the first hints were starting to appear. From door latch switches that unexpectedly lower rear...

I realize it's an artifact of the forum software, but all the quotes attributed to me are actually from the Autoweek article. I was just sharing content I had received in my daily newsletter from Autoweek of interest to this forum.

Missed that...sorry...mods please delete.

Tesla's chief of engineering is 'taking some time off'

I'm still pondering the difference between "every garage door" and "basically every garage door"....same mystery with owners, per the title. :rolleyes:
