Blowing Up A Tesla Model S
Tuomas Katainen of Finland recently purchased a used 2013 Tesla Model S. After about 900 miles of satisfied motoring, Tuomas started getting error codes on the dash. After a month at the dealer, Tuomas was informed the only solution was a new battery — at a cost of around $23,000. Rather than continue the frustrating experience Tuomas decided on something more cathartic — detonating the Tesla with 65 pounds of dynamite and an effigy of Elon Musk strapped in the driver's seat.
