quote of the day count the assumptions edition

From Tesla’s stand at the NAIAS. Ironic counterpoint after the jump.

It’s a good thing Elon and Tesla don’t plan on stopping anytime soon, because the only new product they brought to NAIAS is the body-in-white of the forthcoming Model S. One step at a time, Elon, one step at a time…

I'm looking forward to seeing this beautiful car on the road; the negative vibes notwithstanding.

My favorite bumper sticker: My Jeep is burning what your hybrid is saving.

George How Could the old car have any connection with the new car as performance and wheel size?
ToolGuy Spouse drives 3 miles one-way to work 5 days a week. Would love to have a cheap (used) little zippy EV, but also takes the occasional 200 mile one-way trip. 30 miles a week doesn't burn a lot of fuel, so the math doesn't work. ICE for now, and the 'new' (used) ICE gets worse fuel economy than the vehicle it will replace (oh no!). [It will also go on some longer trips and should be a good long-distance cruiser.] Several years from now there will (should) be many (used) EVs which will crush the short-commute-plus-medium-road-trip role (at the right acquisition cost). Spouse can be done with gasoline, I can be done with head gaskets, and why would I possibly consider hybrid or PHEV at that point.
FreedMike The test of a good design is whether it still looks good years down the line. And Sacco's stuff - particularly the W124 - still looks clean, elegant, and stylish, like a well tailored business suit.
Jeff Corey thank you for another great article and a great tribute to Bruno Sacco.
