    Folks aren’t posting to keep you entertained. We’re posting to find how others are dealing with our assorted nightmares, and maybe learn how to navigate the Tesla maze.

    No one really needs a blind cheerleader - which seems to be your modus operandi.

    Hate to break it it you as well... recalls for consumer products (not just cars) will often entail an upgraded component replacing the original design. Are you Elon’s nephew or something ?

    Reasonable scratch I’d say for a car barely 10 years old.

    Clean First-Gen Tesla Roadster Sport Sells for $112,000 at Auction

    You’re just such a hardened, scorned anti-Tesla muppet that apparently all EVs for all time have been swept up in your butthurtedness. ;)

    A reasonable approach, but let me guess: You never got married. :p

    Nonsense. I am getting my information from being a car guy for 30 years. You need to learn to do some damn maintenance on your car instead of trying to cheat the system by spending 50% more for the hopes you will be able to adjust for wear of shocks. Do you even know how a shock works?

    You are not so smart fella are you?

    You provided article to read behind paywall. 2nd link is just a video with not much explanation. General public want to know details. Try to think for more than 5 seconds.

    People coming to comment how dumb this is. You’re gonna have to step off your high horse and get used to people wanting their car to have things they like. Don’t become a purist asshole it’s ruining the community.

    So no one is allowed to have an opinion? You gave me a thumbs down for my comment of not liking how it disrupts the minimalist lines of the car (nothing about it being dumb or useless). Maybe you need to look in the mirror to see where the problem lies.

    Of course he didn’t, yet you have it anyway…

    That’s more than I might be inclined to provide to some of the Chicken Little trolls in this echo chamber.

    Quick, cleanse your mind with a few pledge of allegiance recitals like they do in school or at the breakfast clubs, followed by some national anthem before the game...

    You may be looking at the wrong account. wk057 has been posting recently but apparently his posts are reviewed before showing up on the forum.

    I see how it is. We post the "other side" of this argument, and the posts get moved to the "basement" where no one can see them. But the moderator's original, inaccurate, reply gets to stay in the main thread for everyone else to see.

    Censorship much?

    Straw bales with plaster/stucco cover most of those requirements.

    I am an electrical engineer, and someone who installs control systems for a living. I find op showing off how smart he is to people who are trying to help to be annoying and counter productive.

    I am a certified power and grounding specialist, but op has google so I am wrong. Rocky obviously knows what he is doing, but op has google so he wrong too.

    OP doesn't want help, he wants to show off his genius.
