I guess I should've said Bethesda...I was in the entire area. And got delayed at BWI for the 3rd time straight time due to rain. If they hit drought conditions, I'll fly in for a small fee.

http://www.motorauthority.com/news/1057 ... -falsehoodTesla claims that Top Gear misrepresented the company along these following points:
1. The Roadster ran out of charge and had to be pushed into the Top Gear hangar by four men.
2. The Roadster’s true range is only 55 miles per charge (not 211).
3. One Roadster’s motor overheated and was completely immobilized as a result.
4. The other Roadster’s brakes were broken, rendering the car undriveable.
5. That neither of the two Roadsters provided to Top Gear was available for test driving due to these problems

My personal favorite paragraph of his:Tesla could not complain about what was shown because it was there. And here’s the strange thing. It didn’t. But someone did. Loudly and to every newspaper in the world. The Daily Telegraph said we’d been caught up in a new fakery row. The Guardian accused us of being “underhanded”. The New York Times wondered if we’d been “misleading”. The Daily Mail said I could give you breast cancer.
The problem is, though, that really and honestly, the US-made Tesla works only at dinner parties. Tell someone you have one and in minutes you will be having sex. But as a device for moving you and your things around, it is about as much use as a bag of muddy spinach.

Well done, Cathy!!
Think what you want, but size, price and flashiness of men's cars often DO represent the size, experience, or capabilities of their (you know what).CathyCA wrote: I could write something here about how some men erroneously think that the size, price, and flashiness of their cars represents the size, experience, or capabilities of their. . .
