Extant has a very high density of Tesla Model S cars … or perhaps just one used over and over again. Set in the future, all of the vehicles sound electric – overlain in the soundtrack. Not sure if the sound is that of a Tesla Model S, but it could be. I am almost to the end of Season 1. Model X and BWM i3 are also shown (maybe in Season 2?).

After reading I want x2, wherein I comment on test driving the bullet-fast Tesla Model S P85D, my lifelong friend emailed me and commented:
Just be glad that you can’t afford it, because everybody will call you a snail …
… they’ll say “Look at that escargot!”

Now you know where my pun-ishing skills come from.
I want x2
I just test drove a Tesla S P85D (see next post)
At a standing stop, fully depressing the accelerator is like driving an ejection seat. (Never having been in an ejection seat)
It’s got everything one might expect and a lot one wouldn’t for a $130k driving machine.
Elon Musk
is the next Steve Jobs.
There … I said it.
Where to begin? Have you ever watched a Steve Jobs product unveiling? Watch Elon Musk as he unveils the model D or Dragon V2. They are both on this blog.
Jobs: changed the industry with his first company; Apple.
Musk: changed the industry with his first company; PayPal.
Jobs: was simultaneously CEO of two companies; Apple and Pixar
Musk: is CEO of Tesla, SpaceX, and … Solar City.
Jobs: gave us amazing technology that changed our lives
Musk: electric cars, coast to coast free charging stations, freakin’ rocket ships, man. How amazing is that!
Jobs: “the journey is the reward”
Musk: “Mars”
I could go one, but you get the idea.
Elon Musk is the next Steve Jobs.

I was fortunate to travel to Norway (Stavanger) on business several times in the early 2000s. It is an extremely beautiful country. I wish I could afford to live there.

I was amazed that most of the back roads are effectively one lane wide, as can be seen in the video.
