Did you consider that most people that can afford 6 figures for a car are going to live more than 20 miles from their place of business? Perhaps they might want to run some errands at lunch, after work, maybe meet some friends in the next town over for dinner, perhaps go golfing in the countryside? average commute isn't a very good indicator of usefulness for the target market.

So rather than tossing up icons and insults, how about actually discussing the topic at hand?
I thought it was an excellent use of the icons.
I don't often get to use that Horsie one, and I like it.
We're just gonna have to disagree on this.
I feel the need to like and want a tesla, without slicing and dicing it to pieces.
Unless you have a common frame of reference to compare to other battery cars, (oops, pretty small supply side there,) there really isn't a point discussing it.
As a guy that leads in "new products," you can ALWAYS "make it better."
But at some point you gotta cut bait and fish. The bottom line is, there is a waiting line for teslas. That's the end of the discussion. When they are fighting for market share, then you can say "well, as an armchair economist and marketing expert, this is why they aren't selling any more."

You remember there was PCdos 1.0, right?
