Elon Musk Lays Out His Evidence That NYT Tesla Test Drive Was Staged 841
mykepredko writes "Tesla Motors CEO and founder Elon Musk definitely isn't the best guy to try to pull a fast one on. The visionary entrepreneur set Twitter a titter when he claimed earlier this week that New York Times writer John Broder had fudged details about the Tesla Models S car's range in cold weather, resulting in what he termed a 'fake' article. Musk promised evidence, and now he has delivered, via the official Tesla blog."

Not to mention, they are usually extremely biased against American cars.
Mind you, there are a lot of not great things about American cars, but TGUK would try to convince you that they are fueled by eating babies alive, and could have their efficiency rated at babies-per-mile.

Perhaps Broder would like to test drive --- A ROCKET SHIP!!!
Maybe he would refrain from screwing around with the fuel tanks; and if not, problem solved.

1. I can't feed my horseless carriage grass, it needs some special fuel that I can only get a special stations?
2. I can't breed my horseless carriage to make more horseless carriages.
3. It costs how much?!?!?
Why would anyone ever buy one of these things?!?

He was probably less happy with the envelope Elon Musk gave him with a xerox of his ass.
