As we all know, Dodge owners are the most badass folks out there. Former high school quarterbacks. Cellphone salespeople.

Shades of Billy Ctystal and Gregory Hines in Running Scared.

Get back to us when it will do a 585 mile day on the interstate at 80 mph.  I’ll even allow for a 10 minute fillup in the middle. 

Nobody is buying the cars we dont sell

Your dad bought an STI while he had kids??? Not before?! That sounds like an awesome dad.

You could look at this through a cynical lens, or you could look at this the way Jagrjones is looking at it which is purely a bright spot in a really shitty time for a lot of people. Yes it sucks that people are dying and no amount of time is going to change that people have died due to these fires. You know what…

I would say that he also scammed the state of Oklahoma, with help from Governor Stitt

It looks nice but apart from producing a handful of vehicles Canoo looks more like a scam or money laundering than a viable vehicle builder. Rivian has actual delivery fleets in service alongside consumer trucks and Lucid also has a substantial number out on the road. Even Fisker got more stuff made before imploding.

Now where have I seen this before...

I’m going to armchair engineer this: The smart thing would have been to strip the body panels off the California, remove the power top, etc. and then build the body you want around the hardpoints, keeping as much as you can. (With this as inspiration and at 9/7 scale.)

For Sale. Low miles. Stored indoors. Price firm (I know what’ve got!).

The guy is trying to buy a ~$90k car while being $29k underwater and only has $7500 to put down. Assuming a 6.5% car tax (this is a guess) and a 10% interest rate (no way this guy is in single digits), you hit that $2500 with 60 months of payments.

Using the car as token goods, one party owes another $35k, uses two accounts to bid the price up to a number they can all agree on, pays the bill attached to a rare or at least rarely valued car no one bats an eye.

Guy A gives Guy B $120K worth of drugs. Guy A cannot accept straight cash (cuz his bank and IRS surely wont without a receipt), so he “sells” his car to Guy B for ~$40K and the cost of the drugs to Guy B, and now has a “legit” receipt to show the tax man and banker for all that scratch.

You can’t convince me that BaT is not some elaborate money laundering scheme.

Forget autos and auto parts, Orange Jeebus has no clue as to how much produce comes from Mexico. Five-dollar avocados is just the start.

Trump is envisaging a world where, to bypass the tariffs, automakers bring jobs and manufacturing flooding back to American soil. Maybe they will, but the millions of dollars that have been invested in Mexican and Canadian manufacturing over recent years suggest that maybe they won’t.

All speed...and no soul.

This is like measuring wich microwave can boil water faster.
