I don’t disagree. My question is whether this is the best way to achieve that. 

100% state regulation - it’s required in California. We have very strict emissions laws. 

Yup. Couldn’t do this anywhere in California.

The same manager said Nimo sells more vehicles than entire sales departments at most FCA dealerships.

Here’s another idea: instead of doubling down on the economically illiterate protectionist garbage, how about we get rid of the EV tax credit all together?

Oh, there’s certainly an insurance policy - as you note, several. Maritime insurance is probably among the most complicated insurance structures out there. 

I’m about as bought-in to the Apple ecosystem as anyone, but not using an Apple display as my home monitor doesn’t bother me at all. Who cares? 

I want a European transit bus (think Citaro, etc.)

Less “rules in favor of fraudster Scott Tucker” and more of “rules against the FTC.”

Oh, no, I totally get that - I’m not saying you need to drive a compact. We live in the U.S. after all. But a family of four doesn’t need to roll around in the Titanic, either.

Counter-take: American families carry around way too much crap. The rest of the planet seems to get along just fine with a Ford Focus for a family of four.

Also 1996. I’d go with a 993.

These guys get DOD contracts and there’s some YouTube yahoo walking around like nobody’s business?

They’ll enforce it - the point is that the three strikes days are over (and in LA County, they won’t even add enhancements for firearm use). 

The laws on acquiring guns are strict. The enforcement of laws surrounding their use isn’t nearly as strict. 

200+ comments and not a single Falling Down reference? Are you kidding me?

If he’s a homeowner, sure. If he’s not, no one is going to go after him (and even if he is, it’s doubtful). City’s insurance will carry it—assuming they’re not self-insured, which they might be. 

Not if you’re going to turn around and spend the cash on buying an new car.

Indeed. If this were $80m we’d have done it yesterday.

Hah! Man, have I missed Carlin over the past five years or so...
