Red today, green tomorrow right?

And they maintain their dominance now by giving away their OS for free, so nutty. It's like a reach around.

Dude shut up. The Fed's called MS a monopoly and almost split them until Gates made deals. And for that, AND for bringing me out of hibernation, a ban. A lesson for all.

One inside and one on the rack....?

It's hard to even comprehend calling Tesla a monopoly when their patents are wide open. They are driving adoption, it's not their fault that that legacies ignored reality for so long and now they are behind because of their foolishness. Hell we still have Toyota's CEO spouting nonsense about EVs...

It's warrantied by the PPF brand, they usually come with 5 to 10 years. Story, way back a cube truck ran into the wifes Tribeca and it was repaired obviously. But the car had PPF and the insurer was going to pay for it. I went back to my installer to get it going and he mentioned that its...

Did you try to claim it under warranty? I've had PPF that yellowed and was replaced under warranty for example. Well, nvm I guess its too late now but next time...

Man it looks like a giant Lego Mindstorms kit.

Just try it. And its an advantage for you to have something to compare against.

Wrong they are not marketing names but specifically denote difference in the way power is transferred. 4WD is when left and right halves are geared together. AWD is the opposite of this. And Tesla's AWD is NOT unique, it's a result of having two motors which is normal on dual motor EVs.

He's on a roll today...

They've really lost the plot man!
