Brace thyselves. Feathers shall be ruffled.
[Ahem]
I don’t like that the blinker and turn signal share — and are — the same three-ish LEDs in the tail light. All that space and they utilize this little sliver? What’s the deal? Couldn’t even make them aternate to amber ? Seems like a waste. Doesn’t seem very safe either, they seriously look like marker or running lights, not brake lights.
Thank you.

If you can afford a Tesla, you can afford to pay for the gas of a regular car.

It’s not about the gas or money. It’s about being one of the unwashed masses vs. one of the enlightened on the One True Path ™.

You are correct, since I have read nothing else on the Model 3 so far today. But t hat could change.

Mostly that, but also about that acceleration. Have you driven one? Having a flat torque response curve is pretty nice. You can pass at 75 like nobody’s business.

I agree with you. How a lot of cars pass through DOT regarding rear lights is a question I’d like answered . There’s that ugly Kia thing that looks like a catfish from the front. What you would think are rear reflectors or just marker lights are the turn signals. They’re like on the ground. That red truck doesn’t run the turn signal and brake at the same time. So when the other side is burned out (often because the lights leak) and the signal is on...no brake lights . Except the 3rd.

Nope never have, but that doesn’t fit into the pithy meme I was referencing.

Yes, but you won’t be as impressed with yourself...

I get so triggered by LED turn signals that cut out the headlights/DLRs and turn into the signal . “You got me this time, fucker, but next time I’m going head-on into you.”

The lights are way too small, especially compared to the size of the housing. This is a good take.

I will never buy a car with red turn signals. The Venn diagram of where laziness, tradition, and stupidity meet.

I agree with this take. They have this yuuuuge tail light assembly but make the brake light/turn signal tiny. The model x does this as well. Not a fan but at least it’s better than the A7's Bigly center tail light that is brighter than 37 suns on a hot summer’s afternoon. I might have permanent
eye damage from being stuck in traffic behind one at night.

Jalopnik is basically free advertising for the Engineering Explained guy, pictures of rust, and reviews of cars no one can afford.

I BOUGHT A TESLA SO I CAN SAVE THE ENVIRONMENT AND ALSO IT’S MORE EXPENSIVE THAN YOUR CAR AND I GET THIS AUTOPILOT FEATURE THAT MEANS I DON’T HAVE TO ACTUALLY DRIVE IT.
Please tell me to never do that again.

When I realized my e-Golfs have red turn signals I started researching how to fix it. But I can also spend around a thousand dollars to get real Euro ones.

The Smug episode. That show is so over the top. The bits that aren't to vulgar and offensive I enjoy.
