At least he's got his hands/hooves on the wheel, if if he may be using AP

You think so, eh? Guess the Autopilot doesn't work too well on a classic Model S either!

Just to clarify things, that scene didn't have anything whatsoever to do with Autopilot. The character was contemplating taking "the final exit", and that episode was probably completed long before all of the recent autopilot incidents. It was just an unfortunate choice of cars for him to do it in.

That wasn't directed at you. We know you were kidding. It was for anyone else reading who may have thought the show was trying to take a poke at Tesla and it's Autopilot.

I'm not sure if the ad at the beginning of this will show up, or be the same for everyone, but if the ad for Adam Ruins Everything
show up note the slanderous claim

[follow up: ok, at least immediately after I posted it this link seems to work, and to only show the
relevant 30 second ad, to boot]

I've seen this ad a couple of times. Found it mildly annoying, but I suspect his show is meant to be entertainment much more than scientific (I've not seen it). I wonder if there will be an episode about electric cars?I'm not sure if the ad at the beginning of this will show up, or be the same for everyone, but if the ad for Adam Ruins Everything

On the plus side, when I looked up a list of episodes, I remembered he did one about car dealerships in the first season, so there's that.

Well, I don't know about "scientific", but he does try to be factual. Every claim is backed by a citation that you can go check out,
though of course you are free to doubt the credibility of any given source and/or his interpretation of what the source said.
I imagine he's going to say that how green your electric car is depends a lot on what your electricity source is. Hopefully he'll have
some actual data on the distribution of Tesla ownership vs. the carbon footprints of their electricity sources. Pacific Northwest: buy
more Teslas!

Yeah, I didn't mean to imply he would be misleading in any way. I probably should've elaborated. I'm inclined to expect the same, that he'll say it depends on your electric source. That's a subject that's been beaten to death, so when somebody brings that up, rather than get into the details, I usually just point out there are many sources of electricity, but only one source of gasoline.Well, I don't know about "scientific", but he does try to be factual.

Keep an eye on the new Spielberg movie Ready Player One. The photos from the filming in Birmingham, UK are chock full of EVs, although I've yet to spot a Tesla.

Brand new member here and future Tesla owner (current Leaf owner). I just noticed an add on TNT for a new show called Good Behavior that is set to begin in November. Without commenting on the premise or whether it may be a good show, I did notice that one of the main characters (I believe he is a hitman) appears to drive a Model S. I found this interesting and hope it is a sign that Tesla and EVs are moving more into the mainstream. I do wonder if this is paid product placement by Tesla or simply the writers / producers using what they consider to be a "cool" car.

Tesla has said in the past that they have never paid anyone to use their products or promote them. I doubt this policy has changed.

As a new member, I should advise you that a significantly-higher-than-average proportion of the participants in these forums are hitmen (and hitwomen). Our motto: silent gun, silent car.

Thanks for the advice Roger, point taken! And might I add, I'm really glad we live in different parts of the country!

With the superior range of Teslas, and the large number of conveniently placed Superchargers spread out around the country, that's really not an issue anymore.
