Took the FX16 for a drive on the Blue Ridge Parkway this last Saturday.   We discovered a Tesla drive event when we got into an Elon-gated line of these things.   From their website, there were 129 Teslas on the drive.  That's a Watt of Tweslas!

I wonder how much they enjoyed the glorious sound of a Toyota 4age at 7,500 rpm in those tunnels?

This has the potentiometer to be a thread full of puns.

I have no puns, but I make a motion that we officially petition the word "musk" to be defined as a group of 3 or more Tesla automobiles.

A school of fish.

A heard of sheep.

A murder of crows.

A musk of Teslas.

I like the "Musk of Teslas"... but as more EVs come around and into vogue, we gotta have a term for groups of EV cars in general. A storm of EVs? A bolt?

If they line up for a wheel-to-wheel race, we could call that a "power grid"

A charge of EVs? A current? A potential?

A car show with more than more than 5 could be a Power Station. Some like it hot!

Can't be bolt. Then if you had a bunch of Chevy Bolts, you'd have a bolt of Bolts, which sounds dumb. Storm has potential though.

I think "current" is reserved for a parade of Amphicars laugh

A current for a large number, a voltage for a great speed laugh

You can call it AC if you line up the Bolts head to tail...

I'm really amped to participate in this discussion.  I mean I'm really wired for this.  I have a whole battery of puns that I hope you will get a charge out of.
