Which is hilarious in this context since they're pretty much opposite climates.

One is known for it's cold, the other not-so-much.

My insinuations about testing flush manual handles in the cold thus applies to the (desert) California end of things.

This isn't a problem unique to Tesla though, unfortunately. They don't make things the way they used to be. My Chevy's exterior-sitting plastic pull-handles also snap from frozen parts, too. I'd just hope that a $50,000 small sedan which is a peek into the future also takes in to account common weather-related-issues in their preferred markets.

And ironically, similar populations. California is 1.1x Canada's population.

Not similar GDP though :( California is 2.2x Canada's GDP.
