  1. Um... you misunderstand my point. But nevernevermind. Edit: I used incorrect terminology. I will need to write the estimate in my system manually, because our humble friend Elon has not supplied CCC with the database needed, with part numbers/prices and a labor time guide. I can write a Corvette, or anything else up to a one-ton truck from anyone all day. With this POS, I need to go old school and punch everything into my super duper computer manually. I am rolling my eyes at this. He and his car are not that special. But that is OK, we are part of a collective that will be able to supply me with the necessary information to override Musk's decision to curtail his customer's choice of repair shops. I WILL OVERCOME.
  2. Seriously folks. Who down votes an opinion that is literally from personal experience? I had the car for six months and spent $1600 fixing various issues with it, from bad regulators to bad knock sensors. If someone can't give an honest opinion of their own experience without a down vote from the petty children on here, then honestly those children can just take a hike or maybe I just need to jump this ship altogether. Sorry to vent but this is just ridiculous behavior by people pretending to be adults. What I'm reading is they are only providing the guidelines to Tesla certified repair centers. If the center is not Tesla certified, no guidelines. Good point. It's the same for every manufacturer and their guidelines. No it is not, sur.
  3. Well I think Consumer Reports is a bunch of nerds. I don't like Musk or his car, so I will stoop so low as to side with the enemy to make my point... like a broken record. We actually have a P85S in our shop right now, hit a deer, and I have to write the estimate to repair it... but Elon thinks he does not have to supply simple body repair guidelines to the company that writes our estimating system (the number one collision repair estimating system in the world by far)... so we have to scramble to get the customer taken care of properly. Typical Elon Musk hubris, seen first hand.
  4. Tarted up French looking Datsuns. Nothing to see.
  5. Old fart? I was 8 years old in 1972.
  6. This is why I got the 3.6. Although it has a very reedy exhaust note on the rare occasion.

    2015 Regal Turbo

    Congratulations on the CC, Control Specimen!
  8. Traveling down the road at the speed limit... when someone pulls out, does ten under the limit... then turns off an 8th mile down the road... without ever using a turn signal.
  9. 1964 Pontiac Grand Prix
  10. Snow hit my windshield yesterday.
  11. Not at all happy about the prospect of losing control of my own vehicle. May as well not own my means of transport, but take public transportation... then the automakers eventually go out of business.
  12. It's Friday
  13. '69 Impala = BAD ASS INDIVIDUAL!
  14. True on the purchase price, but if it lasts 20 years, it should work out in the long haul. Ford is the nicest of the Euro vans.
  15. Haha, I happened to be walking by the TV this morning at work, and I saw these ugly little TRDs bouncing across the desert.
  16. An impressive ELECTRIC vehicle, based on what we've been promised. The proof will be in the pudding.
  17. But, but... I thought it was a "crappy midsize truck"??? Yes, in the context of a comparison a Platinum level F150 or Denali GMC interior the Canyonados have terrible, dare say again I say 'crappy' interiors. You chose to forget a pretty obvious detail. Your opinion regarding my truck interior should matter to me... why again?
  18. I guess when a limited scope of experience comes into play, the original Taurus is "storied" however, mention the word "Chevelle" and you will see entire encyclopedias written.
  19. Good save! Now if we could act like post #40 never happened.
  20. Trouble is, nobody important wants to follow Tesla anywhere.
