Register Hardware Quote: according to the Top Gear spokeswoman, the tested Tesla was filmed being pushed into the shed in order to show what would happen if the Roadster had run out of charge. Wow Thanks guys. I have such problems visualising what that might look like.   12-22-2008, 08:35 AM   #205 doug Head Moderator     Join Date: Nov 2006 Location: Stanford, California Posts: 3,605 Quote: Originally Posted by malcolm Top Gear admit the car didn't need pushing BBC: Top Gear Tesla didn't run out of juice ? Register Hardware Well I'm glad the car blogosphere seems to be picking this up. I don't think Tesla should push too hard, though, since it could back fire. This victory added to the fact that most of the review was quite positive is indeed a great result. Top Gear: Shocking Scandal!

Yes, I totally agree. Victory achieved on this one. Back off and let the public figure it out for themselves. Anything more from Tesla itself will backfire.   12-22-2008, 09:04 AM   #207 Kevin Harney Senior Member   Join Date: Apr 2008 Location: Herndon, VA Posts: 920 I would say that Rachel can put this victory squarely in her quill.

Register Hardware Wow Thanks guys. I have such problems visualising what that might look like. Yes, it looks surprisingly similar to what happens when you run out of gas Maybe they could also demonstrate what getting a flat tire looks like? __________________ Building the AMPhibian http://amp-phibian.blogspot.com/ If you can't wait for or afford a Tesla http://www.diyelectriccar.com/forums/   12-22-2008, 10:24 AM   #210 JRP3 Senior Member     Join Date: Aug 2007 Posts: 670 Now if they just retract all the pro hydrogen nonsense we'll be all set.
