    Mentioning ford is funny considering that more people have now died in Tesla battery fires (83) than in Pinto fires (27). Increasing Pinto deaths to account for number sold (~5M Teslas vs ~3.2M Pintos) would give 42, roughly half of Tesla's.

    But no it's a good thing when your new fancy car is twice as deadly as the car that's famous for being a deathtrap.
