Yeah, that wasn’t a very good comparison and it wasn’t fair to either the Tesla or the Corolla, just in different ways. A Corolla really isn’t a market equivalent to a model 3. A more fair comparison would be something like a Cadillac CT4 or a Buick Regal if it was still made.

I had an old Neighbor from the 80s who was a labor negotiator there. Interesting from an engineering viewpoint.

I'd argue this isn't exactly a "very good" comparison. I don't like when they throw in maintenance and just say "routine maintenance" will cost $XXX. That's so broad. What kind of routine maintenance will cost 6k for a Model 3 over 180k miles? 3 sets of tires and one set of brakes? $7300 for maintenance on a Corolla? I'm sure that's following the book on oil changes, a transmission and coolant flush. Are they assuming a full suspension overhaul at that mileage for both cars? Oh yeah, they didn't even mention the Corolla's fuel economy that they used for their numbers. Or national average insurance rates for both vehicles. I'm sure it's considerably more expensive to insure a Model 3 than a Corolla. I just feel like blanket comparison like this always leave a lot out and aren't actually "good comparisons". They're just *A* comparison.

His birthday is in the vicinity of or right on that of a few people I know. A certain light bulb went on as I was responding to his post. Much like I remember engine displacements and the weird names GM used to assign to car colors, I often remember birthdays. I don't even try. I just do. I'm not sure if there's a term for that. However, I CANNOT tell you what day of the week a day fell on. That one is weird. I knew one person who could. He was "different."

I honestly think the AI spending has gone nuts and we are going to see many companies go bankrupt rather than become that uber profitable company everyone says they will become. AI boom risks global financial crash, warn central bankers Continued proof of Idiot47 lack of any real intelligence. I wonder what legacy companies could die if the market crashes as the warning signs are pointing too. President Donald Trump just took a jab at his handpicked Fed chair, Kevin Warsh, over interest rates

OUCH, we are just a couple percentage points away from the 1999 Dot com crash. Anyone want to take a bet on a Market crash under Idiot47? https://www.msn.com/en-us/money/savingandinvesting/is-a-stock-market-crash-looming-under-president-donald-trump-history-doesn-t-mince-its-words/ar-AA26Jri9?ocid=msedgntp&pc=W069&cvid=6a41e4d027ad43e183317e1786e7edde&ei=10 History has not been kind and all his stupidity is moving America to facing a terrible crash that is going to hurt many. This is pretty clear on why EVs are better in saving you money over ICE. Very good comparison. I compared how much it costs to own a Tesla vs Toyota gas car over 15 years and there's a very stark difference
