    Extreme weather: The melting glaciers, weirdly warm oceans, they’re all the product of global warming, which is being driven by the release of the three most important heat-trapping gases: carbon dioxide, methane and nitrous oxide. According to a new study from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, emissions of those three greenhouse gases continued to surge last year to historic highs. Global average carbon dioxide concentrations jumped last year, “extending the highest sustained rate of CO2 increases” in NOAA’s 65 years of record-keeping. Methane and nitrous oxide levels also rose sharply last year. By analyzing more than 15,000 air samples from around the world, NOAA found that the upticks in emissions last year “were in line with the steep increases observed during the past decade.”

  • @haleis4117

    I suspect the reason Tesla is transporting 5 cars at a time rather than the usual 8 is because they are not transporting them to a single location such as a dealer's lot as with legacy auto companies or one of their own distribution centers or a transportation hub (railroad, ship).
    They are transporting these to customers in residential neighborhoods and unloading them one at a time while engaging with customers and then traveling a presumably significant distance to the next customers (there is no reason to expect that five different customers taking delivery of a new Tesla on the same day will live particularly close to each other, this is not a postal route).
    As such they presumably determined that transporting five at a time worked best for this task. The convenience of a smaller size and possible speed of unloading might have also been a factor.
    Finally it seemed to me that the fifth car was loaded on a separable one level trailer which would give them the option of transporting 4, 5 or even 6 cars (double decker third trailer) depending on the total distance to be traveled to deliver that many cars.

    Outside of that I like white, like my current Subaru BRZ. Not quite orange or red, but my car prior to the BRZ was a Holden Monaro in the flame color which was an amazing redy orange. I nick named it the 'flying Jaffa' after the confectionery due to its flame outside and orange / black inside.

    While I'm at it, Tesla's adoption of 'steer-by-wire' is going to change global EV production "immensely". That one change removes so many barriers to right-hand/left-hand parts/time/costs. IT IS HUGE, and will be standard in 2030; "the best part is no part" was never so true. Dynamic wheel performance is how AI will eventually coordinate the wheels and the road, with "feedback diagnostics" that increase safety and performance. Smart cars should have smart wheels(...?) The production of electronic 'steering-actuators' will be another challenge for every vehicle manufacturer(...$)

    With the U.S. leading the world in LNG exports, I think CNG injection in diesels could be the future. Having the secondary CNG tank is a cost and ongoing service requirement, but natural gas significantly reduces emissions and adds power - reducing maintenance of DPF systems. The additional costs of a NG hybrid diesel is much lower than that of batteries. Natural gas is widely used on stationary industrial diesels. The natural gas infrastructure in the U.S. is very good. Straight NG can also be used in engines derived from diesels.
    Natural gas is somewhat renewable as it is created within the earth. A large amount of NG is still vented into the atmosphere and flared off because its too cheap to support building the pipelines or local storage tanks.
    The U.S. has no major rival in LNG exports. The NG industry is utilizing an energy source that is often wasted around the world. This is an area where U.S. technical leadership can make the world a better place using an abundant clean burning fuel.
    Electrick class 8 trucks have their place in local shipping. They could reduce emissions in congested cities. But in long haul, some diesels get 8 mpg hauling as much as 80,000 pounds without needing to refuel for a 1,000 miles. FMCSA rules require a 30 minute break every day, then they can be back on the road. Truckers absolutely hate unplanned delays because drivers are almost always paid by the mile. Charging batteries on long haul would cause drivers to quit. There is a window for electric trucks in local trucking. If batteries advance to permit the same type of range as diesel, then there is hope for long haul electric - but shipping is extremely cost sensitive. A maintenance free electric truck would be popular, not if it costs $500,000.
    Many owner operator independent contractor truckers still use pre-emissions 1990s trucks that they do 80 percent of the service themselves. Some have 4 million miles on the chassis. A driver typically does about 1 million miles every 8 years.
    The pre-emissions trucks can be very low maintenance compared to newer trucks. Caterpiĺlar built some of the finest class 8 diesels, but stopped after 2006 because the DPF system was a maintenance nightmare. Have you seen a DPF equipped truck do a regen ? Blows thick black smoke.
    CNG may become widely used in class 8 trucks. There might even be a place for diesel-electric hybrids

      Only one problem. Burning methane is okay but the world wide extraction and shipping of it leaks alot. Methane is a very potent greenhouse gas. "Natural" gas is anything but. And fracking is another story. There are diesel electric semis already, Edison motors. Electric BEV class 8 with onboard diesel generator which could easily be re-tasked to run on methane.

    It would be deeply unwise of Tesla to run its semi fleet as a commercial freight carrier even if its exclusively for its own product "Private Carrier" .. Tesla pockets are simply two deep any incident would draw legions of lawyers, there are always incidents and the costs can be astronomically high.. It often doesn't really matter who's fault the deepest pockets end up paying most that's just the way it is..
    If I where Tesla I would set up a subsidiary corporations to compartmentalize liability exposure in transportation to about 20 million per company this is the sweat spot..

    If magazines are to be believed Tesla Semi Fleet has round 100 Trucks end of 2023 built using Cyber truck parts. Volume Production is scheduled to 2024 but little has been said about the Class-8 truck or its dedicated production line at Giga Nevada in the past year.
    However, they are behind the curve against Volvo and Daimler Trucks Europe, who are more advanced with Kempower delivering high-performance chargers to Milence for Europe’s largest heavy-duty charging network. Volvo have delivered over 500 electric trucks and claim to be the leading manufacturer of heavy electric trucks for Europe and North America.Volvo’s heavy electric truck, the Volvo FH Electric, has been selected as International Truck of the Year 2024. In explaining their decision, the jury praised the electric truck’s performance, seamless acceleration, quietness, and vibration-free behaviour. Daimler Truck sold 3,443 zero-emission trucks and buses 2023, 277% more than in the previous year (914 units). Given the competition is so advanced a better decision would have been to keep the Model 2 and dump the Semi.

How many more trailers on three[3] continents must be managed with that fleet. No wonder he is Boring under a highway in Texas, so the cars can park themselves(?...) Tesla's semi leasing operations must be like NASA given the 'pace' of Musk/X enterprises. Tesla's supply-chain operations must be a significant portion of it's expenses, and I'm curious why that is not discussed more, ...because it is a "First Principle" of how effective, efficient, and productive Tesla is today.
