LTERALLY the entire body of the Ford F-150 is aluminum my dude. And has been since 2015.

https://www.lightmetalage.com/new...inum-body/






are you confusing aluminum with stainless steel?

Yikes.
The problem is his posts are so bad that I actually don't even know if he's confusing aluminum with stainless. I'm just assuming that he's smart enough to know the body is an aluminum casting and I'm running with it. I really can't tell anymore with the stupid crap being spouted in his posts.

Holy crap, just caught this moronic post. I worked in oil and gas for 12 years. This is not how things work. This post is so cringe it's actual pain to read. Turn your TV off, walk away from the keyboard and go touch grass.
Yet you have no intelligent response and 95% of your post is to insult and use adjectives to describe nothing related to my post. Thats not how a discussion works

Yeah, a nail can happen with any tire though. And you don't want to buy tires through Tesla, the same as you don't want to get your tires through any auto dealership. Always other retailers with better pricing on tires.
I needed to replace a tire (Subaru), and was shocked when the Dealership (Santa Monica) was cheaper than Costco and the various chains around town. And it was more convenient as they were able to do the service at the same time.

Yeah you might be able to save 39 bucks vs going to a dealer . The whole point why the tesla picks up nails is because its AWD and has alot of torque off the line. instant torque for that matter because its all electric.. So one could easily argue that a tesla is more acceptable to flat tires and picking up nails vs another car made with less torque or traction.

Glad to see the price of Evs falling to offer more value. I will be holding out for Toyota in 2027 with their new battery tech. Not a fan of lithium in this space.

Imagine trying to say electric boats have been made since the 1800s.
Mainly because they have.

I can't say I've ever seen someone so remarkably proud of his profound and continued, and frankly at this point one can only conclude intentional, ignorance on literally every topic they try and discuss.


A quick history for ya!

Mortiz Von Jacobi invented the first electric boat in 1839- which carried 14 people on the Neva river against the current and which he demonstrated for the Emperor of Russia.

He's also the engineer and scientist for whom Jacobis law is named and among his other claims to fame is he disovered electrotyping, the Jacobi naval mine, and worked on development of the telegraph.

The first more practical/commercial electric boats came along in the 1880s, by then there was an entire fleet of electric boats, and charging stations, along the Thames in London... they had ships as large as 70 foot long luxury craft taking 75 passengers.

In 1893 at the Chicago Worlds Fair 55 electric boats carried more than 1 million passengers.

In some places these turn of the century electric craft were never replaced even when ICE became common- on the Konigssee lake for example in Germany (I've been, it's beautiful- but the boats are only electric and have been for over a century.


Also, you might want to google how most submarines operate when they're underwater.
(Spoiler- they are electric. And have been since, again, the late 1800s-starting with the launch of the Peral by Spain on 8 September 1888- including electric motors and huge banks of batteries.... somehow all the navies of the world have been doing this for over 120 years and don't keep getting electrocuted)

The Peral still exists BTW, it's on display at the Cartagena Naval Museum if you want to go there and explain how it's impossible for it to exist.

LOL indeed my dude.

And then you'll be holding out for 2030. Then 2033. Then 2036.

Every 3 years for well over a decade Toyota announces their imaginary solid state cars with be on the market in just a few years, so please don't go buy anything that exists today.

Not sure your issue with lithium, as mentioned earlier in the thread there's multiple sets of fleet sourced data showing Tesla batteries retaining near 90% of original range at 150,000-200,000 miles of use, and they've only gotten better since.

"the cons are: rough ride, noisy, tire wear, and low battery if you go longer distance than 3 hours. all I can think of."

Your electricity still comes from fossil fuel power plants, batteries are extremely expensive to replace, extra heavy weight does more damage to our infrastructure and releases more toxic tire dust while driving, battery + salt may equal huge fire that could burn down your house if in garage and will take 10k-20k gallons of water to extinguish, not good for the economy there. Also takes longer to charge than pumping gas for 4 minutes.
Engines are also expensive to replace… doesn't mean every car gets to that point. I haven't met anyone who has needed their hybrid or their Tesla batteries replaced.

I am a fan of Japanese build quality. Competition is a good thing. You will probably more likely have a real dashboard with instruments too vs buying a model 3 or model y at the same price range

Why do I need instruments? It's a car, generally being driven at low speeds (or even 80mph)...it's not an airplane.

I have a Tesla, and before I bought it, I was worried about the lack of instrumentation and manual controls.

After 18 months of driving, everytime I go in my 2023 Subaru Forester Limited, I ask myself why I need all these knobs and switches.

The lack of clutter is wonderful, IMHO.

I recall driving a tesla at night. Its pitch black in the cabin , and why can't they afford to install grab bars on the interior lol . I like to use my right hand as a passenger to grab onto something. not the door

I mean, pitch black except for the big 15" screen right in the middle of the car.

C'mon dude, nobody believes you've been in a Tesla laugh out loud

If electric was so good in boats why is the navy still using steam or combustion engines the last 100 years lol and still use it today for battleships and destroyers.
The fact is you think tesla battery tech will change in your life time is pretty funny to say the least and that it will revolutionize everything. So driving a tesla semi truck 300 to 500 miles is comparable to a diesel truck that can do 2k miles and be refueled instantly is not a better option lol . Let's see it takes 21 hours to charge a tesla truck and doesn't even come close to to the luxury space offered in a real semi commercial truck where the driver can sleep. So I guess you are saying electric boats will be the future . Your intelligence clearly shows any professor would fail you in any research class taken the next 20 years in regards to electrification . I guess next you will say rockets going into space will be all electric too in the next 20 years?

How much insurance you guys paying for Tesla cars, just curious.
I pay $1,300 per six months for a 2023 Model Y Dual Motor Long Range - I'm in Houston, mid-40's, 2 no fault accidents within the past 7 years, insurance through Farmers. I got quotes from State Farm which was about the same. Progressive quoted about $100 cheaper, and offered a greater discount if I used their driving app that monitors driving (another $100 or so discount). Houston roads are the worst and lots of uninsured/under-insured motorists on the road.

Actually I have and whats funny the used model y performance i kept over night from car max had a crap after market led kit installed . I guess the owner that traded it in felt the same way driving on the highway at night with no lights inside the cabin. I also test drove one from the dealer model y performance. Returned it with a flat tire after doing full throttle stop and go runs , it only took 1 hour since tesla wants the car back in that timeframe..
