Or, Little Red Rented Rowboat. Warning: a Tesla X is NOT an Amphicar.

Luckily, the driver´s husband came to the rescue before the Model X could simultaneously sink into the saltwater and go up in smoke. No one was injured in the incident ... The fire was allowed to burn underwater until it extinguished itself." Bystander video clip: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zuFelNI2c08 I understand the physics, but it's still a bit mind-bending to watch flames rolling out of the ocean. It's worth noting that this phenomenon isn't limited to Teslas. Any EV could have the same kind of accident, though I don't know how many other EVs are approved for towing and apt to be towing boats. Be careful when launching your boat. David Roden, EVDL moderator & general lackey To reach me, don't reply to this message; I won't get it.
