Surveys are biased, and now we have real numbers to look at as gen 1 EVs buyers are going into their next vehicles.

I don’t see it any other way at this point.... They have the lead on battery tech right now, they have the lead on battery manufacturing of the said battery tech, they have a competent system for designing and programming cars, and at this point, all the legacy manufacturers are playing catch up to it and failing…

In 2035 ICE automakers will be out of business as the Chinese take over.  That’s what they’re doing to themselves.

1st Gear: just like when Trump proposed lowering COVID cases by stopping testing for COVID. “If you don’t test you won’t find new cases”

I hope the autoworkers are happy they don’t have to build WOKE EVs when they are at home not building anything because their union protections went out the window. 

Just like when he said we can lower COVID cases by not testing for COVID.

Spiteful and world-class stupid pretty much sums up the incoming administration.

They’re in the process of being replaced by these new trucks (the NGDV) that come in both ICE and EV variants. I believe the first batch are all ICE but will transition to 75% EV later.

God damn all of the stupid racist assholes that voted for Trump. They have already damned the rest of us.

Lowering standards so you can meet them is peak Trump...

You know that some people with psychiatric disorders have died at some point since the introduction of leaded gasoline, yeah? So it’s not half the country.

Also, since this is science, you’re welcome to conduct your own peer-reviewed study to back up your hypothesis. 

And? What’s your point? That we shouldn’t attempt to improve anything even a little bit because we can’t make everything perfect?

Fun fact (okay, maybe not so fun): Thomas Midgely, who played a key role in developing leaded gasoline, also invented Freon and many other harmful CFCs. It is very likely that no other single person has had such a long-lasting and deleterious effect on the environment.

If it’s global warming, that’s not possible because humans can’t impact the weather.

I remember when people could actually read, and see that an article about cars is uh...about cars instead of getting pissy because their dumbass buddy looks bad for doing dumbass stuff.

Fun fact. The patronage system led to gross mismanagement of government agencies and eventually resulted in the Great Depression.

They’ll still blame it on “the deep state”

The only positive outcome is that Trump's voters are going to suffer as much as anyone.

His comment about Tesla highlights the massive conflict of interest Musk has. No CEO should be in government, much less the world’s richest, with lucrative government contracts.

President “drain the swamp” is putting together quite the circus with these clowns (and relatives and donors) he’s handing jobs to. I see a big pile of elephant shit coming our way.
