The driveline is the unique part of the NAPCO; if you are going to update it and heavily change it with different transfer case and axles, you would be better off starting with a 2WD vehicle.

If it’s an electric Maverick, Dearborn can have my money right now.

Why is it that if i steal 20$ from a cash register, i go to prison, but if this dealer steals a million smackaroos they get a slap on the wrist and the ability to pay it back with no jail time what so ever?

I think it’s more like “Well it’s time to replace my aging car, since I am going to be in the market anyway I would prefer an EV.” 

I think anyone who is savvy about EVs is going to be aware of both. I’m not sure that Toyota has that much more brand cache’ over Subaru...perhaps with EVs but goes back to my first point if buyers know they are the same car they are going to prefer the one with a tax credit. 

It’s unfair to pick apart a prototype for its specific issue related to non-serial build quality.  General issues and serial build quality will be enough to pick it apart when its time.  

Corporations get years to correct financial mistakes. Meanwhile the common citizen gets their lives destroyed in just weeks if someone else makes a mistake. Consumer protections in the US is garbage. Contact your representatives! Tell them to do their job and make life better for us.

Basically, they make electricity with hydropower. They’re like 98% renewable.

Any of the discussions regarding Norway’s oil exports aside, part of the reason why so many individuals & companies in Norway are buying EVs is because the nation is incentivizing it’s population to actually do so. Buyers of EVs receive all sorts of registration & tax breaks, key of which include no purchase/import…

What if instead of locking you out, it gave a warning that “This motor is not designed for excessive, repetitive use. Abusing its use will cause premature failure” for privately owned vehicles?

Well that 50k car is the 35k car. So the 25k car we are talking about would having a selling price of like 40k once you add a few options in....

Yeah, they’re not going to move in to lower margin segments until they actually saturate the higher margin ones.

Why a $25,000 Tesla will never come: because people are climbing over each other to pay $50,000 instead.

It’s not bad. It’s definitely better than the LC300, inside and out. I do have a problem with how they solved the flat floor problem. That just looks lazy. Why can’t 3rd row fold flat with the floor? 

Demand is through the roof, so the right thing to do is slow down production. LOL

Pretty much every ev except the lower range leafs now have thermally managed batteries.

I got stuck on a highway once in my Model S on the way to Vegas when some guy decided to yard sale his travel trailer all over the highway on and it took a while to get it all cleaned up.

I think we were there for 4 hours.

Biggest…

I get shit for driving like a grandma in the snow in my truck and people just don’t get what you said about AT tires in the snow. Please forgive me for not wanting to send 5,500 lbs sliding into anyone around me. I’ll take my Subaru on on iPikes over a Raptor on K02s any snowy day.

1st Gear. Its like there’s no free energy out there. Phucking physics.

Sir, you are clearly still imposter Torch, as the real person has children of appropriate age and would know that Chuck E. Cheese makes frequent appearances in the restaurant.
