Sorry couldn’t hear you over my Zune.

I just threw down a tarp in my van, worked fine.

CP, sounds like a vehicle that is just about used up. If I need to tow something big enough to buy a truck this size, I won’t be looking bargain bin anyway.

Meh, give me a Hellcat Compass and we’ll talk.

The nice thing about Formula E is that they put everything on YouTube and the entire race lasts less than an hour. I find it great for binge watching.

Seriously, there was a Starbucks around the corner from our apartment in Paris last summer.

Keep it down will you? You’ll ruin my “Academy of Rhetoric and Sophistry” before it even begins.

I was looking for this to appear.

But where are we going to find boots that are made in America? I kid America, I kid.

True about the dealer infrastructure. I’m in the bay area so it isn’t an issue for us, but I could see it being a deal breaker in Kansas.

I looked that up, that seems about right. I mean that is all the regular maintenance you would conceivably need for around $500 a year.

Its like they aren’t even trying to get it.

There are no maintenance items on an electric vehicle. If you ignore your ICE for 60K miles it will make you pay, if you ignore your electric vehicle for 60K you will need to fill the washer fluid.

What maintenance intervals? Refilling the washer fluid?

One would certainly hope that potential $100K car buyers aren’t waiting for a $40K car that only comes in one color and has virtually no options.

You know what would be cool? A 7up type thing (7up is a documentary that has been checking in with its subjects every 7 years for like half a century) where you show the pick-up, the first maintenance visit, and so on. Show a full idealized lifetime experience with the car.

Personally I find it harder to drum on a soft dashboard. So there’s that.

You probably have that fancy power steering too, talk about disconnected from your car.

Who will save the carburetors?

I think you guys are taking the wrong approach to this. What is the fun of driving a well setup sports car with a stick through the twisties? That is what it’s designed for, how much fun can that be?
