Watching Top Gear on the History channel right now and they have a Dodge Hellcat vs Cadillac CTS V vs Tesla P90D and while driving, they are showing the autopilot of the Tesla, definitely a very cool feature.
Very cool episode.

Stopped into a dealership for a minute while over here in South Africa. Saw this thing, pretty sweet looking but don't know a whole lot about it.

Eh, having trouble with the uploading but here's a google photos link to see it. It's the new BMW i8.

I've seen a couple of those on the road. Nice ride.
I saw a brand new Challenger Hellcat at a body shop today. Someone and rear ended him and caused quite a bit of damage. I asked the guy "How did you get rear ended? Nobody is supposed to be able to catch a Hellcat." He wasn't amused and I probably shouldn't have kicked a guy while he was down. If it had been my car, I would definitely have been pissed. It had less than 1k on the odometer. I didn't know that or I wouldn't have said anything.

Terrible decision. :lol:
Dear Corey,

Thank you for booking your Model S test drive. We look forward to welcoming you in person.

Model S is designed from the ground up to be the safest, most exhilarating sedan on the road, and we can’t wait for you to experience everything it has to offer for yourself.

During your test drive, you'll encounter features such as Autopilot, which allow Model S to steer within a lane, change lanes with a simple tap of a signal, and even adjust speed in response to traffic conditions. It also allows the car to scan for a parking space and parallel park on command.

Revolutionize your commute

Of course, you’ll also experience the exhilarating acceleration (0-60mph in as quick as 2.8 seconds) and handling that Model S has been recognized for, as well as the personalized preference settings that Tesla owners love.

We encourage you to visit our site before your appointment, to configure and save your perfect Model S.

Saw George's Jeep thread bumped and realized that I had been saying I'd throw up a pic of my truck that I purchased last year. I happened to take a pic of my wife's car after I cleaned it and did some work to it today and figured I might as well grab both. I need to wash my truck, haven't had a chance to in a few weeks. Thankfully it's been all road since then.

Ordered July 6th
Confirmed July 13th- they allow 7 days to make any changes before production
Went into production July 25th
Put on a train last week
Delivery set for next week after vacation

I've never wanted a vacation to be over so fast.

The whole experience has been awesome and cool to see how Tesla handles the process.
