The price I got for it made it a whole lot easier. 🤣



In the realm of 3rd gens, I would also settle for an 89 turbo T/A. :D

Yes, it really was that nice.

It had 9,995 miles on it when I sold it in 2022.

How exactly is he benefitting from it?

He's doing the exact opposite of promotion for Tesla. If they are aware of it, I would certainly hope they would tell him to stop. :rofl:

Refuse drinks? Really? That's the argument you're going with? Nobody is "refusing drinks" to kids to go longer between stops, you f**king clown....

Yes, so do I.

Shockingly enough, they do just fine without stopping for an hour every 250 miles to recover from all of that hard work sitting in the back seat.

Keep twisting.

Your EV range goes to shit on the highway. That's a simple fact. ICE cars don't lose nearly as much. Keep telling yourself how efficient you are if it makes you feel better.

Great. So a 25%-30% loss vs the < 10% of the brick shaped Escalade (with 4 people, luggage, and an entire go-kart operation in the back)

Everything on that list is 100% stock. My Firehawk had a cam, aftermarket exhaust, and some other mild work done to it when I bought it. The first thing I did was put it all back to...

The difference is that a loss when you have a range of 600+ and it takes you 5 minutes to fill up again is a hell of a lot less of a problem than the massive losses that EVs see at highway speeds...

I never said anything about it being rare, fast, or a collector's item (Although by comparison, GM made 37,000 Corvettes that same year.)

Nope. There's nothing "partial" about it.

What I said is 100% correct.

Your complete inability to accept or admit even the most basic realities about EVs is absolutely f**king absurd.

Great. What's your point?

Deflect all you want. As speed increases, your range goes to shit. That was the case in 2016. It's still the case today.

Ironically enough, the reason that I sold it was when the kids came along it was absolutely terrible as a wagon. I couldn't fit the car seats in it. Now...
