I yelled at my phone when I saw this.
He said "oh wow! The whole thing is a computer!" like cars haven't been like that for YEARS now.
The I go on Facebook for some reason (I am in a rural area) and I am seeing people talking about buying teslas in the local community pages. These people are not people that couldn't afford a used Mitsubishi Mirage....
Worse, Teslas are designed like computer software rather than cars, which is why they are so dangerous and terrible, as software development processes are absolutely horrible for things that actually matter, especially when compared to existing vehicle engineering principles.
I feel dirty cross-linking to that other place but check out how/where they locate the brake lines. A nice convenient rust-prone place, only accessible by removing the battery. Apparently the design has become even shittier since.
