Billionaire Mark Cuban on why he does not drive his Tesla, but much cheaper Kia EV6: On the Tesla you've got to find ...
Billionaire investor Mark Cuban
has said that he is not impressed with the design choices of Tesla. Speaking at "Your Mom's House" podcast in March, he was asked 'what's your favorite car?'. Cuban, who owns a
Tesla
replied with a grin 'A Kia. EV6.' He further added 'I like it. I'm comfortable with it.'
Revealing that he hasn't sold his Tesla 'yet', Cuban explained: 'On the Tesla you've got to find [the turn signal] and push the button… while you're driving. You can't pay attention to the road as much.'
Praising Kia, he said: 'It doesn't try to be too fancy. Your turn signal is like… a turn signal'.
While Cuban doesn't mind driving a 'cheaper' Kia EV6, but his 15-year-old son isn't impressed. When Cuban suggested handing down the car for driving practice, his son quickly shut it down, saying, 'It's not cool, Dad.' He even called it a 'nerd car.' Cuban's response? 'Exactly,' he said, embracing the label.

Mark Cuban calls Elon Musk 'thin skinned'
Mark Cuban is a known Elon Musk critic. Earlier this year on the "Club Shay Shay" podcast, he even admitted he likes provoking Musk because he has "really thin skin and it just makes it easy."
In another interview earlier this year, Cuban said 'I have no problem throwing Elon under the bus, but I'll save it for when it's truly deserved.'
Last year, when Musk encouraged users to share more positive content on X, Cuban wasted no time in delivering a sharp retort. 'Please post a bit more positive, beautiful or informative content on this platform,' the Tesla CEO then wrote. Cuban commented 'You first'.
Cuban recently shared an anecdote from a night at COMDEX, which he claims was a major tech trade show in Las Vegas, where he found himself upstaged by none other than Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates. At this event, Cuban recalled chatting with a group of women when they suddenly disappeared, only to learn they had left with Gates, who had just taken Microsoft public and was quickly becoming a tech icon. Cuban noted jokingly that Bill Gates took away 'his girls.'

SJTA raises prices of dismantled chariot wheels, components
1 2 3 Bhubaneswar: Shree Jagannath Temple Administration (SJTA) on Saturday released a new standard operating procedure (SOP) for sale of dismantled components of the three chariots after Rath Yatra in Puri. The SJTA also revised the prices of the chariot wheels. As per the new SOP, a wheel of Lord Jagannath's Nandighosh chariot is now priced at Rs 3 lakh each, which was Rs 1 lakh earlier. Similarly, the wheel of Lord Balabhadra's Taladhwaja chariot is priced at Rs 2 lakh, and the wheel of Devi Subhadra's Darpadalana chariot is fixed at Rs 1.5 lakh, official sources said. Prices of the wheels of Taladhwaja and Darpadalana chariots were earlier Rs 60,000 and Rs 50,000, respectively. Purchasing a complete set of wheels from all three chariots will cost around Rs 6 lakh. Earlier, one had to pay Rs 2 lakh to buy one wheel from each chariot. Among other components, the Guja and Ansuri parts are priced at Rs 15,000 each, and the Prabha is priced at Rs 25,000 each. From selling last year's chariot components, including wheels, the SJTA received Rs 55 lakh. "We received an overwhelming response for selling the chariot components for the Rath Yatra last year and expect a similar response this year too," said Debabrata Sahoo, deputy administrator of SJTA. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Giao dịch vàng CFDs với mức chênh lệch giá thấp nhất IC Markets Đăng ký Undo "Increasing the price is fine but a three-fold rise seems too much. People buy the components for their love and devotion to the deities, so they should be given at an affordable price," said Ratnakar Subuddhi, a devotee. Official sources said interested buyers must apply to the temple administration by Sept 15, along with an application fee of Rs 1,000. After they are selected to buy the chariot parts, they must deposit the amount within a week after receiving information from SJTA about the allotment. If an applicant fails to deposit the amount within a week, the next eligible applicant will be considered.
