    I didn’t want to order my Mach-E and wait so just put some feelers out to dealers around the state. One was delivered but the guy who ordered it didn’t want it when he was told it had arrived. I got a call and said yes. Beat another guy by about 5 minutes and then the original guy changed his mind and wanted the car again. Dealer said nope, already promised to rimrocker. Picked it up for sticker and even got the color I wanted. I’ll probably go with the same strategy when I get ready to buy a Lightning.

    Dealers play tricks like that. You can be signing the papers and they'll tell you someone wants to test drive the car.

    Tesla is recalling 130,000 vehicles across the US because the touch screens overheat.

    It's not a true recall, just a software update.

    He was merely joking about Elons acquisition of twitter and the potential censorship that could be.

    Whew. What a relief. I would be more worried if my touchscreen overheated and it were a true recall.

    I'm an old. My meme game is not strong. Explain it to me like I'm your grandpa.

    (Sorry if anyone was offended.)
