The Great Sprite75 2015 Road Trip went by the Twin Cities today so I went to the Tesla store in Eden Prairie.

I'm not really looking to buy anything new right now, especially a Tesla. I just wanted to actually see one up close. The sales rep answered all my questions and then offered to let me actually drive the car. I got to take it for a spin around the area. He got me on to an empty street and I found out just how fast those cars are. 0 to 60 in 4.3 seconds.

Wow: for an electric car, that is fast.
Just a word of warning: that car was designed by a South African, so be careful. :wink:

I don't think Elon Musk needs my shorts: he can go buy his own. :wink:
My sister said my brother in law was quite excited - here he thought I had bought a Tesla when he saw the photos of me behind the wheel of a Tesla. Of course if I had he probably would have been up here right away wanting to see insane mode.
