Got a link?

Might be faster but it's no drivers car. Rather just about as opposite as they might get. Auto, electric, nannies, not road trip friendly etc...

I have personally been in situations were a nanny not being able to be turned off could have seriously hurt myself and others.

No, but it's in the latest R&T print magazine.

Wonder if they will ever get the Tesla track safe? Batteries over heat and go into limp mode.

I'm really not trying to sound like a jerk, but if the Tesla doesn't handle well, why would anyone be surprised by that? The thing weighs as much as a pickup truck.
