It’s telling that the chemistry isn’t anywhere near what they claimed 3 years ago since they can’t even expand production to fit all of their other cars and there isn’t meaningful changes to the car capabilities...

Multiple factors. First, we have a habit of outsourcing non-routine public works to consultants and contractors rather than bringing that talent in-house in the US. It’s why municipal utilities run pretty well, municipal transit projects suck because the agency doesn’t know what they want, how feasible ideas are, and…

You’ve heard of “ESG”? That “Environmental, Social, and Governance” thing that Florida wants to ban? This is a great example of how ESG is actually a benefit here, because it makes projects with lower impacts more feasible. In fact, it’s a great rationale to stop mining in unfriendly countries completely.

Youtubers need to make interesting content. Interesting content isn’t going to include a tagline that says “it was a comfortable and uneventful experience.” Because EV’s are providing owners with maintenance-free operation and wiping the floor of gas vehicles, we all love to see where EV’s actually fail. The typical…

Two kids and two dogs, you’ll do fine with a Prius or a Bolt.  If you need to tow your house every day of the week, you’ll need a big truck.  But you should be taxed and licensed appropriately for driving such an oversize vehicle.

We should put a price (literally) on the adverse impact these vehicles have on our streets, our lives, our infrastructure as a whole. Tax by size/weight and make it a non-trivial amount and watch the size of all vehicles normalize very quickly.

Looking for the “I have to tow my giant camper 4 days a year, so I need a giant truck to daily drive the other 361 days a year” comments.

The people who have bought the truck to own seem happy with it. The people who bought the truck to create Youtube content aren’t. Draw your own conclusions as to why that’s the case.

Kill yourself, eunuch.

There is always someone who just has to let everyone know they have a micropenis. Thanks for being that moron.

I’ll quote Alliterator who already gave you the best answer:

I get accused of being a ‘centrist’ or a ‘right-wing apologist’ on here a lot, when really the only thing I’m advocating for is for the left to actually engage with what the right is saying - like, the actual points that they’re making - and learn to dismantle those.

If guns are not the problem and people are the problem, why would you give the problem guns?

I see where you’re coming from but I disagree. Reason and logic do not work. Those are tools to explain to people who already agree with you why they’re right to think that way. If the left wants to win elections they need to manipulate and control the waves of hysteria that occasionally cross their base just like the…

Did you intend for that to make sense?

I will bet money they will look lame and barely distinguishable from the rest of the shoe shaped crossovers

There is no shortage of lithium. As they have been mining lithium they have discovered that there is a lot more lithium reserves. Additionally, Tesla next gen motors use zero rare earth materials.

I’ll never understand the people who see every conversation as an opportunity to list their property. Is it narcissism or aspergers?

How to say "I missed the point" without actually saying it.

Weather extremes? Nordic countries get along quite well with tons of snow and smaller vehicles. Rain and heat don’t matter for trucks vs. cars.
