    Tesla’s stock?


    One thing, is a Tesla easily drivable by the typical renter? It has a bit of a learning curve. Given time I’d guess yeah.

    Its even better news that people can pay a little more and check out an ev, that should accelerate the growth of plug-ins in the US.
    Hertz Buying 100,000 Teslas, Making EVs 20 Percent of Its Fleet
    I took my gf to vegas on herand my aunt'sbirthday ;-) My aunt and some cousins live in las vegas now. Someone asked if I rented a tesla, nope. My gf gave me lots of abuse for driving funny when we first got in the rental. It took time to remember how to drive a normal car after not doing rental cars and flights during covid ;-)
