I get the frustration but all of the cars are only there because BOP exists in the first place. The old days are gone.

This take is dumb and wrong, and I know of multiple people now in California that have explicitly made vehicle buying decisions to avoid the companies that have sided with Trump. And yes, it is a signal they want to make dirtier car and skirt CARB.

Not legal for operation on any public roads, and won’t be any time soon. Pump and dump.

I, too, have never accelerated from a stop.

It is a representational graphic of the data. I’m not sure why I have to say that. Feel free to read the article:

My point is that they are dangerous and bad and nobody should buy them. I hold out zero hope that our government will ever actually fulfill its regulatory function and effectively manage the safety aspects of big SUVs.

Yeah, and its been shitty as hell since the day they released it. Cool!

The measurement is explicitly looking at vehicle blindspots in relation to children standing in front of the car. I also hope to god you aren’t looking way down the road when driving in cities, on residential roads, and near schools.

Congrats on the poor reading comprehension. “Literally every road user” in this context was pretty clearly referring to categories, and the fact that SUV drivers are more likely to kill themselves, their passengers, passengers in other cars, and pedestrians.

NHTSA studied that and found that SUVs drivers are 11% more likely to die in a crash, mostly because they are much more likely to get into high speed accidents because of “perceived safety”. Even in individual accidents at identical speeds, cars are often much safer due to their lower mass. So no, the “im so safe in…

Other peoples choices in microwaves and TVs don’t directly kill other Americans like their shitty choice in cars does.

Great, another gigantic square poser SUV with comically huge blindspots, perfect for endangering literally every other road user and pedestrian.

Take the comment in its context. It is not easier to drag them around because they are adults with responsibilities with now. The size and weight of the computers is not the issue.

This isn’t a centrally planned economy, and it is unlikely that governments will mandate a certain fuel type, let alone mandate trillions in public spending to support it. The trillions in infrastructure will only be spent by the private sector, and only if the market adopts it in a widespread fashion in the first…

Of course there is room for both. There is more to the future of low carbon transportation than just sedans.

They think they can spend the money to bribe politicians into allowing them to keep making high profit ICE cars for the long term, instead of legislating them out of existence as lots of Europe, California, and elsewhere are moving. That is the situation.

It can’t.

It already exists in the US. Also, you have no fucking idea what you are talking about.

Tesla 3 is close enough to me on interior size and price, personally. If you disagree, do what you want I guess!

yeah but it looks like a catfish so...
