Tesla Model 3

[shel311]

Oh dang, didn't realize this car is 2-3 years away, boooooo!!!!

[shel311]

I imagine AJ's infamous weed Wacker debacle went down in a very similar manner.

I agree and this new release is going to set the precedent for multiple manufacturers offering a $35-40k vehicle that is electric, has auto driving capabilities, and is setting the trend for future possibilities in the section.

Others will get on it shortly afterwards but Tesla seems to stand head and shoulders above the others at this point in terms of design but also much more expensive...until the 3

What's the model name so I can Google what it looks like

Being unveiled in 2 weeks and preorder begin with a $1000 deposit March 31st.

Deliveries expected quarter 4 of 2017 but safe assumption is 2018 with how the S and X releases went.

Probably at the max of my price range until I start the new job full time but that's a good year away, probably two before I'm fully certified. The 3 looks alright, I think I'd be all in if it was the S from the picture above

That's just fan art. No one has any idea what it looks like as it has been under lock and key and no leaks whatsoever.

Only thing anyone knows:
Around $35k
Latest auto pilot technology
Possibly 20% smaller than the S
Employees and current Tesla owners get first dibs
The more customized and options you get the sooner you will have yours delivered

That's it

This seems counterintuitive

I've been having the same issues with my screen door and almost got to that point. Had to take a deep breath and walk away. I'd probably be willing to pay to see AJ go off on the weed Wacker

Awesome, that actually looks just like the one I have in my kitchen. Which brings me to something a bit funny... about 4 years ago 1 of my bulldogs decided to come into the house through the screen door. Ripped a hole right through it. It was pretty much destroyed so I tossed it out and didn't think much of it. A few weeks later I decided to head over to Lowe's to buy a new one and come to find out, the size of the door was custom. FML. They told me that I would have to get the frame and have it rescreened. Well, that wasn't going to fly. About 2 weeks after that, a neighbor that lived a few houses down needed some help loading some stuff in a truck. They were moving out. Unfortunately, come to find out, they were getting foreclosed. We had been talking about the neighborhood, the financial landscape, how the builder did some things back in the day and the topic of the door came up. He ended up giving me his screen door as a going away present. Bad news, he lost is house, good news, I got his door.

Bad karma. I would have left the door.

Just wanted to say, I like you guys. The wife wife always teases me about my "nerd" friends at first (2005ish) but she now realizes that we are a community of dumbasses that love gaming.

If you didn't see in the news we lost a marine right down the road from us (2 miles away). Pray for his family and the rest of the marines,soldiers,airmen out here with us. Things may get hairy over the next couple of days or so.....

fuck George, be strong and be safe.

you're in my thoughts as are his family.

[The_Niddler]

I second that, stay safe brother and condolences to his family!

[shel311]

Looks like reports are out that the US base was attacked again.

Checked to see when George was on the boards last, he's currently perusing the NDL boards, rockets be damned.

Crazy world, get home already!

[shel311]

1. That's pretty funny.

2. Who thought it would be a good idea for the president to pose with that pic in the background?

I didn't hear any explosions. Not sure when it happened.

This is awesome! Even if it is photoshopped it's still awesome

[shel311]

The crazy thing is the pic is not photoshopped, they actually took that pic with the Che murial in the background.

Brussels is under attack after waking up and seeing the chaos that happened overnight. At least 15 confirmed dead but going to be many more. Sadness.

what a time to be alive.
