People sucking at basic math is why gig companies exist.

Independent of their legal challenges, these companies have far more to worry about from a booming jobs market in the entry level sector.

For all the “Oh but the Lithium!!!” crowd. That is why is everyone is trying so hard to get batteries away from using lithium. There are literally thousands of labs working on different chemistries. There are dozens of promising combos in various stages of development. It is not the same as oil.

Also Bay Area, east bay, I’ve seen a few ID.4's, probably a dozen or so. 3's are so thick on the ground you can’t avoid them. Bolts are probably 2nd in my neck of the woods.

They are now, pick up a 500e for 9 grand

This and the Lucid are going to be replacing a whole bunch of Teslas in my neighborhood.
