I think everyone uses Enterprise. I can still remember taking a $50,000 Audi in for some warranty work and being given a base model Ford Focus to drive around for a couple of days. This was in the early 2000s so the Ford Focus was REALLY bad.
Yep, that's right--driving other cars. Model S owners hate it, according to a semi-serious, semi tongue-in-cheek thread on the Tesla Motors Club forum.
I took my wife's ICE out to get it washed and when I got home I got out of the car and left it in the garage...running. Fair warning when switching back to ICE MAKE SURE TO TURN THE CAR OFF.
Love the 'ICE age' pun.I agree we should not be allowed to go back to the ice age.
The greencarreports title could have been:I think this thread is mistitled. Something more like this is warranted...
Safety issue with older ICE vehicles after owning a modern Model S
Also, the "idle speed", a.k.a. creep. That keeps freaking me out.Best way to minimize the danger is to write a checklist for yourself for when you get back behind the wheel of a petroleum fueled vehicle. Read the checklist before driving to remind yourself of the less responsive throttle, reduced or no regen when lifting off the throttle, less powerful brakes, and turning off the vehicle when parked.
Checklists are the best way to insure against faulty human memory.
I had an interesting post-Model S experience yesterday...
The weather was finally nice enough in Montreal to take my bike out of storage. So I drove it out of the warehouse and parked it in our parking lot, hopped off and started walking into the building.
Oops -- I'd left it running. What a contrast from an S... loud, ICE, etc... But there's still something to be said for the feel of driving in the open air.
I'm going to have a hard time deciding between the two vehicles this summer.
I'm having the same issue with my motorcycle...pano roof or open air? I've been choosing open air since the weather in VA is really nice right now and I just love two-wheeled shenanagans.
Ride safe!
