I mean, the $26,000 Chevrolet Bolt is a reality. How much smaller and more affordable do you want it?

Convertibles, coupes, and a few other types of vehicles tend to fall into the “leisure” category of vehicles, where their popularity trends with economic trends. With income levels stagnating most of the last two decades but inflation rising, there just isn’t as much $$$ to go around for vehicles like convertibles…

That’s part of the reason I got rid of my VW GTI. It was great on fun roads. Which was not most of my driving.

Oh, hey, I see you’re rolling out the easily-debunked and outdated EV criticism from half a decade ago.

I know, right? It seems the biggest “advances” in convertibles over the decades have been trying to make them more like closed-roof vehicles but still technically having a retractable roof. I’m talking things like the wind blockers, the HVAC vents in the seats right at the neckline, etc. I mean, at that point, might…

Driving around these last couple of weeks, I’ve seen an unusually high number of Broncos, and not the “Sport” model.

By their own admission, convertible sales were in free-fall well before EVs started becoming more mainstream.

Yep, that’s the issue as I understand it. For high-speed rail to be effective in the US would likely require building pretty much all-new, dedicated rail lines between major cities, which is an endeavor in itself and would likely take decades for even a shorter route to get built due to all the legalities and whatnot.

I think his point is more that since the trains only achieve those speeds for very limited sections, the whole point of “high-speed” rail in America is itself fairly pointless.

I’m pretty sure you just described a Liz Lemon.

“Shhhh...she’s sleeping”

Many trucks now have a separate generator for the sleeper cab.

Oh, sweet.

From my five minute research, apparently not. In fact, at the end of Scott Pruitt’s tenure at the EPA in 2019, he effectively lifted the 300 gliders per manufacturer limit.

Don’t even get me started on “gliders.” I don’t hear much about them now, but when DEF and particulate filters were initially required, lots of companies got into the business of “gliders” which were basically new trucks with old engines which weren’t required to adhere to updated emissions regulations.

Something something YOUR MOM!

Oh, are we bringing back “Separate but equal” and not allowing certain ethnic groups to vote?

Not to mention that water isn’t exactly readily available in many areas of the country. Using water to create H2 instead of, you know, watering crops and keeping the population hydrated, probably wouldn’t be a very popular move.

You must have skipped over the “Climate” part of the bill.

I hear the last special edition Charger will be called Charger McChargyFace.
