Ferrari Mailing List: Re: Good old Captain Slow

[Rick Moseley (ramosel]

Peter,

Ha!  We have a good friend who is a militant feminist, tree hugging socialist... otherwise a sweet lady.

She doesn't mind having her husband do things for her but only if she is capable of doing those things as well.  That part of her quite endearing.   She had her Smart car for about 4 years and was glad to be saving the planet in it.  When one of the headlights burned out, she took it on herself to fix it.  She researched several tutorials on YouTube and dug in for herself.   About 4 hours in, she remembered her first Chevy from 70s and how she changed those headlights with 3 screws in 15 minutes.   It took her most of the day to put the new bulbs in the Smart car, but she did it.   The next day she took it down and traded it in on a Tesla S.  After the Smart Car, she's often alluded to the Tesla being too big.

I can't wait to see her response to the May video, I just sent it to her after you jogged my memory on the issue.

She once inquired about the SAE port I have on my Kubota that is there for Battery Tender.   I wonder if she'll attempt installing a port on the Tesla herself...  or trade it in on a Leaf....

Cool, now I know how to break into the front trunk of Tesla Model S!

 

Not as bad as changing the headlight bulbs on a Smart car:

Ah, this was enjoyable with my morning coffee, nothing like Captain Slow crapping on his Tesla.

Glad to see that the buffoonery in the design and engineering teams hasn’t changed since I left the industry.
