Been threatening to do this for a while. Picked up a 2020 Tesla Model S P100D Ludicrous. Got it about a week ago and loving it so far.

Boom goes the dynamite! I was beginning to wonder if I was the only one around these parts who liked awesome stuff.

One of ours is that color too. It's amazing in person. Did you get a left-over P100DL or is that a brand new Performance model? They dropped the P100DL even though it's basically the same thing but with a fancy new name. Is it a Raven model? Damn that thing is cool!

So, how long until we find out who has the more bad ass Tesla, J or Jer?

I can squash all the debate right meow.... that one is more bad ass. That there is the fastest car Motor Trend has EVER tested from 0-60. Not the fastest EV, not the fastest sedan, nope. The fastest ever. Full stop. It was clocked at a mere 2.2 seconds from 0-60. My old, clapped out, out-dated excuse for an EV can "only" muster around a 3 second 0-60 time. I know, I know... it's slow. It beats my wife's car though as her's takes an coon's age to hit 60mph in about 4.5 seconds. Hopefully she never needs to rush my to the emergency room because I don't know how many hours it will take her at those speeds.

It's got a lot of other nice improvements and it's crazy to sit in one that's even a year newer given all of the advancements they've made changing the assembly lines monthly for upgrades in many cases over the years. Kind of sets a new bar for other manufacturers who wait 4-8 years before adding any improvements to their cars.
That thing is dayum secksi though and if I had an unlimited budget I'd have one pretty similar. Instead, I have to make due with my clapped-out 5 year old used cars that I buy.

I picked up this little do-hicky to provide me with options...

They come in a 4 pack and make one heck of a cup of hot tea. I made a pitcher of ice tea as a test run last night.

The price savings should be nice considering the last box of k-cups I bought had went up by 10 dollars.

Looks like the same ones we use. It's a winning solution to always have a fresh cup of coffee (and tea etc.) with practically the same per-cup cost as a traditional glass pot. These work well with them: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...?ie=UTF8&psc=1

It's a new performance ludicrous. Most people just know the P100D better, so that's what I said. In reality, it's the same car, so long as you have the Raven update on either (yes, mine is a Raven).

And yes, it's fast. I have a Ducati Panigale V4s, which is debatable the fastest bike all around. Up to about 60, this is even faster.

So sounds like you need an electric Ducati. I bet that thing would rip your arms off when you pinned the throttle back.

Ludicrous speed!

My Boss bought a Tesla, when he became dissatisfied with his Maserati's acceleration.

On the bike, power isn't the issue, putting down that much without wheelie, or wheelie control cutting power is the issue.

On a bike, normally you want to just worry about braking.

The front brake is your friend.

Ah. Been wondering what I should do after topping out sixth gear. Thanks for the advice.

I guess you have a very loud exhaust too?
