Electric cars are bullshit...try going up mountain with one and then not have it start....and you have 4 full bags of pine mushrooms and just want to go home. What do you do? Kick it until it starts...idiotic technology. Give us cars that use little fuel and that only need 5 tools to fix everything ourselves with.

It was just days ago that we reported that the NHTSA was opening an inquiry into the use of Tesla's "Smart Summon" feature. Then, just hours ago we followed up by reporting that a petition had been filed with the NHTSA claiming that Tesla was using over the air software updates to cover up dangerous battery issues.
Today, we offer a stark reminder that just because the NHTSA has started to perk up its ears, doesn't mean that Teslas haven't stopped going up in flames all over the world. The most recent example comes from Austria, where after a Tesla was involved in an accident and caught fire, firefighters had to use a special container to transport the remains of the vehicle and the battery.

They are like the stupid 'energy saving' lightbulbs that you need a hazmat team to clean up if one of them breaks in your home. Fucking (pardon my French) retarded tech that really isn't needed...
