March 26th, 2009 Arnold Says: Hasta la Vista, Tesla Roadster!

Bad rumors say Arnold Schwarzenegger wants a refund from Tesla, after he drove his electric Roadster for almost a year, and praised Tesla Motors to the heavens. The governor is satisfied with the car’s performance, but he seems to have problems with getting in and out of it.
The Silicon Valley gossip blog, Gawker, says about Schwarzenegger he’s “more of a Hummer guy”. Both parties (Tesla and the governor) have kept this arrangement secret, possibly not to ruin part of the car’s image. Tesla has also delayed the refund probably due to the financial difficulties everyone is facing.
This news hasn’t ruined my view of the Tesla Roadster, as I’m used to getting in and out of several types of cars, and this would be the last reason I would want to return a car to its manufacturer. But, hey, I’m not Arnold, and I have a bigger advantage over him: I’m so much younger. So, mr. Schwarzenegger, if you don’t like the car, give it to me, I’d handle it! Thanks! ![]()
