You drive everyone away that successfully took a battery system you licensed from AC Propulsion and a sedan you co-developed with Daimler and Toyota's help - and based the next three models on, and just have what idiots are left who did the dumpster.
Indeed and let's not forget the trucking log jam, I could never forget as it delayed my IONIQ 5 delivery 2 months.
Indeed, strap in!
Right!
It's fascinating, really, the shifting of all that negative equity, enabled by being in the 1% or so of income earners, that would normally bankrupt the average American, propping up brands with uncompetitive, very expensive EVs with enough MSRP to absorb it.
And, as you pointed out in your post, we don't need to even consider everything changing to EV immediately because it's unreasonable. I do love how Americans, in particular, don't realize how much of our energy goes to fossil fuel production and just ceasing that would give us a big % energy needed.
Electrification of heavy vehicles is the greatest tool we have in reducing transport air pollution and making a big dent in global warming.
Obviously country specific, but this oldie is a goodie:
Has China provided updated footage of the Lincoln?
Glorious!
What’s going on here is Americans with 5 or 6 figures in negative equity are artificially inflating struggling prestige brand sales as they offer large discounts on very expensive vehicles that aren’t moving to allow those folks to bury that negative equity.
Awesome! Thank you!!
It’s just startling the volume of 1%-ers rolling over 5 or 6 figures of negative equity and no one is talking about it…
lol right?
It’s interesting, the state with lots of renewables, DCFC, EVs, building HSR, also expanding other rail, and building thousands upon thousands of residences on rail, instead of excuses and blaming the FED.
Stating to think folks spreading EV FUD are projecting because they aren’t engaged.
It sure would be hard to sustain the aggression without tie chief architect.
Who knows until anything’s confirmed just rumors of residences etc being hit by relentless Iranian barrages and the videos looking off.
Oh... as crafting supplies, great point! Exciting! Thanks for sharing, can't wait for the update.
He's not appeared in war council meetings and the two videos that were shared had odd artifacts (sixth finger or oddly lit palm in first, weird coffee not moving as the cup does in second). 🤷🏽♂️
Was just chatting with @d2lo.bsky.social about this, so many factor, but it's hard to ignore the tangent Dodge v Ford and the Regan administration set the U.S. on, divergent from most western democratic capitalist nations. Also, a not insignificant dash of parental influence as we see w/Musk.
What... what are the odds BiBi's still with us and the videos aren't AI? 🤔
I wonder if they'll eventually lock weapons to NPCs the way they do player core weapons not in bags, so we don't have outpost littered with weapons, further encouraging crafting? 🤔
When my AC died the quote to replace it with a conventional AC or Heatpump was a 3% difference
I'll never understand why the mid-west and east coast are so deplorably behind on DCFC, EVs, Renewables and efficient technology. Well, thanks to this thread, starting to, arcane regs, lack of incentives
During the span of a week gas has gone from an average in San Diego of $5.18 to $5.52. During that same time, my cost to drive my EV daily, 100% renewably powered by solar, has set flat at an equivalent $0.25 a gallon.
Life's better with a non-Tesla EV.
I mean yes, they already were before Canada instituted 100% tariffs, so one would expect they’d pick up where they left off once returned to normal favorited levels, the big question is why Canada artificially delayed it with the tariffs and why the punitive unit caps still?
Totally! And it’s just going to compound as manufacturers that aren’t globally competitive on EVs fall further behind and need to cut more corners and write down billions more in unrealized products due to inept leadership and incompetent engineering.
The car industry conflation accelerates!
50%!!
Texans pay 23% more than Californians yearly for electricity because of a blend of factors like no focus on demand destruction or retiring methane, data centers, inefficient housing, etc, and their baseline costs are expected to increase 50% this year. Fifty percent!
