We think similarly based on your opening line.

“Why buy a Mach-E when you can get a comparably sized Model Y with significantly better range and performance for a lower price?”

The answer to your “why buy an _____ when you can buy a Tesla” is as simple as I have a HUGE dislike for Tesla’s CEO. For years my dream car was a Model X- it was an aspirational thing; this giant, cool expensive bauble that hits all the right spots from a practical and fun perspective. The thing is, when it became my…

I’m just a simple man, so I don’t own an EV, but are Tesla’s really hard to get repaired?

I think his statement makes sense; he’s kind of trying to square the circle of how they still sell so well. The reputational issues will definitely begin to catch up with them, though, and I don’t see how they will pull back once this happens. It’s a slow motion train wreck, and part of the pleasure is that we will…

Bolts are genuinely good GM cars. They even fixed the way they look with the facelift.

I got a used 2017 bolt a year ago and I’ve been having a blast as well. I live in a fairly conservative area and nothing is more satisfying than having some “global warming is a myth” bumper sticker yokels rev their Hummer/pimped out raised truck next to me at a light only to overtake them instantly once it goes…

I wonder what mental thought process this revelation would trigger in someone who exclusively drives lifted 4WD truck with a confederate flag sticker somewhere on the truck.

Fun fact: The Energy Policy Act, which began the Loan Program as described in TITLE XVII—INCENTIVES FOR INNOVATIVE TECHNOLOGIES, was enacted in 2005. George W. Bush was President, the Republican Party controlled both the House and the Senate. Both Tesla and Ford have been previous borrowers. The U.S. does collect…

Yes! Like Latchkey for adults. That would be awesome!

Hello Cam. Thank you for sharing what your experiencing. I agree, it is tough locating the proper mental health professionals when you need them most. I am a nurse which is irrelevant, but it became extremely frustrating when I personally needed to seek help. Have you considered that some of your symptoms describe…

Overall, you are not alone. There are tons of people in the same boat, including myself. Sending you tons of good vibes.

If this was made by VW, they could call it the “New New Beetle”.
