I have a 2011 Chevy Volt I bought for dirt cheap since these things lose value like mad for some reason. But it has an engine AND a big battery. It is ridiculously complicated and so far at 100,000 miles I’ve been lucky and the only thing I’ve had to do was replace the 12 volt starter battery, which was in the trunk

Absolutely. Its puzzling to me why other automakers seem so hell-bent on taking an ICE carcass and shoving batteries in it. That makes no sense. It totally ruins the potential handling, range and modularity of the EV. They probably do so because as it was shown with Tesla, who spent years designing their platform, its

Seems like people my age ( almost 40) are driving the prices of these things. I too am thinking about getting an old 80's Toyota truck because my Dad drove them and compared to today’s trucks, which seem more like Cadillacs for overweight suburban rednecks filled with electronic crap and interiors not made to get

Let’s see the actual car, the cost, the production plans, the battery supplier and then maybe we can talk. But so far all I’ve seen from German automakers in terms of EVs have been somewhat muted or even laughable. Take the Audi E-tron for example: $40,000 and a 16 mile EV range... whoopeee... Even the BMW i3 at this

Ha ha ha! Now I get to be like Stephen Colbert. I knew you wouldn’t be able to resist responding to me again. I am so very curious about your ideas. So let’s hear em’. Its Friday anyway.

I should get a job at Jalopnik and fill its pages with a whole host of useless projects. Next up: I redesign my oven to have a microwave inside the oven.

I want you to continue replying to me. You seem rather hell-bent on annoying people here and so its your turn. So keep on replying to me because you can’t seem to help yourself... can you? And I know you will because if you don’t then I win... because that’s how it works...

No, what I am saying is that you’re a troll and I’m simply wasting my time here.

The word “ Agent” wasn’t in my response...

Well then.... if you aren’t an American then you should have said that before in your previous remarks about not wanting to know Democrats. Might have cleared things up a bit huh? Or were you just looking to stir the pot a bit?

I’m not sure the Russians would’ve helped Cruz nearly as much as they helped Clinton, who was actually on her way towards winning the election until ( gasp) all those emails and documents got dumped by the Ruskies the second that nasty video of Trump surfaced. So no- not just “anyone” would’ve beat Clinton. Both Trump

This thing is really, really fugly....

This shit is getting old. The question is will this one stick? You’ve got to hand it to Trump: He’s as slick of an oil salesman as they come. Nothing, no matter how bad seems to stick to the guy.

I’m not a minivan guy but I agree. I feel that the vans from Honda, Toyota and Nissan looks almost exactly the same. At least the Chrysler variation looks unique and even pretty nice.

Didn’t realize Edges were sold anywhere else except the US.

Just this morning I saw a Colorado on the way to work. There’s something funny about the proportions. Its like the cab and windows are undersized for the rest of the body or something.

The actual range of the Leaf is more like 75 miles. A LOT of people at my office own them and can confirm that. So yes, more like 1/3rd the range.

Nuh-uh... I thought it was YOUR car....

This is “the” car that looks like the stereotypical vehicle assholes drive.
