The tesla is a sports car, it's meant to be owned by rich families and playboys.

In my opinion, one the the greatest reasons for Ford's dominance, at least in my region, was not their vehicles but rather their credit company.  If we had customers whom we had to turn away because they were a credit risk, sure enough you would see them in a new Ford the next day.  It was also easier for someone with poor credit to buy a pickup truck because the lender saw it as a slightly slower-depreciating asset than a car or minivan.  ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Will]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Apr 15th 2008 11:06AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Tesla Motors sues Fisker over stolen secrets]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2008/04/15/tesla-motors-sues-fisker-over-stolen-secrets/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2008/04/15/tesla-motors-sues-fisker-over-stolen-secrets/</guid><description><![CDATA[The Tesla ... the best Porsche 911 one can realistically afford at the $100k price point (after any of the normal options + tax) is of the generic Carrera blend.  <br><br>Call me a show off, but I'd rather not look like 50% of the other Porsche owners out there (the rest drive either a Boxter or Cayenne).

The battery life of most of the laptops we have in work has been reduced to about an hour and many of them can't hold a charge at all.  Is the same thing going to happen with a Tesla?  <br><br>If it is then it's going to be bloody expensive to replace the 6,831 battery cells every 2-3 years.  I'd imagine it would also be quite expensive to dispose of the existing batteries and not very environmentally friendly.  ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Charles]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Apr 15th 2008 12:12PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Tesla Motors sues Fisker over stolen secrets]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2008/04/15/tesla-motors-sues-fisker-over-stolen-secrets/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2008/04/15/tesla-motors-sues-fisker-over-stolen-secrets/</guid><description><![CDATA[This is addressed on Tesla Motors' blog: <a href="http://www.teslamotors.com/blog4/?p=66" rel="nofollow">http://www.teslamotors.com/blog4/?p=66</a>]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Sam]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Apr 15th 2008 1:40PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Tesla Motors sues Fisker over stolen secrets]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2008/04/15/tesla-motors-sues-fisker-over-stolen-secrets/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2008/04/15/tesla-motors-sues-fisker-over-stolen-secrets/</guid><description><![CDATA[I mean, just looking at the Mockup shot of the Karma you can see a strong resemblance...<br><br>]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Fangorn81]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Apr 15th 2008 1:03PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Tesla Motors sues Fisker over stolen secrets]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2008/04/15/tesla-motors-sues-fisker-over-stolen-secrets/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2008/04/15/tesla-motors-sues-fisker-over-stolen-secrets/</guid><description><![CDATA["I think it's ironic that Fisker chose to name his car the Karma, when what he's done is very bad karma," said [Tesla's] lawyer.<br><br>Unless, of course, the Karma is retribution for something bad that *you guys* did to Fisker, heaven forbid.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[macserv]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Apr 16th 2008 2:18PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Tesla Motors sues Fisker over stolen secrets]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2008/04/15/tesla-motors-sues-fisker-over-stolen-secrets/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2008/04/15/tesla-motors-sues-fisker-over-stolen-secrets/</guid><description><![CDATA[Wow, that car is beautiful.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Liam]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Apr 16th 2008 11:14PM</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
