They perfectly align with people who hate EVs but love being hateful on Twitter.

Once they stop making them they could become the new Delorean, though DMC never produced this many units. 

Economist Simon Johnson dubbed the fallout from 2008 a quiet coup. He was spot on. 

VW expanded their TN plant to build EVs and opened a battery engineering lab as well. Lots of investment and jobs to the local economy that I guess also hates EVs? https://www.vw.com/en/newsroom/everything-electric/inside-chattanooga-timeline.html

I never successfully found the Boston neighborhood fake stickers, though I’ve heard rumor of their existence. 

All captured insiders that were probably collecting decent checks or hoping to cash in on equity offerings.

I’m surprised that the Subaru Ascent didn’t make the list. It feels like the right size to replace a Mazda 5. Good cargo room, fold down seats to expand hauling, good roof to rack up, and extra seating for the family and maybe some friends of the kids. I’ve ridden in a relatives a few times and came away impressed. At

He’s already invented the weave nonsense to cover for the fact that dementia is setting in. How else to explain him getting cucked currently by Elon Musk? The old egomaniac Trump would never let Elon appear to be in charge.

It’s nice to get at least a glimmer of good news while Elon actively works to burn down democracy as the Trump puppeteer. 

Hard no!

This is most certainly true, but there are now more offerings from other makers in the Model S price range. Audi, BMW, and Porsche all offer vehicles that are competitive on range and likely ahead of Tesla on fit and finish. Beyond that, the Tesla brand is now synonymous with Donald Trump. This likely turns off a big

I love seeing green come back as an automotive color on more affordable cars. 

My wife drives 400 miles per week. The trickle charge wasn't going to cut it. But I have a friend with a Niro that does this and it works for his short commute life 

Oh yeah,I have one friend in that scenario. My wife drives 70 miles per day. The level two charger is a must for the amount she charges per week.

The tax credits helped a lot with the vehicle purchase and install options. There are credits for solar too, but there are thousands in up front costs for that regardless. At the moment I'm not looking at solar as the value return is most likely not there for me.

I was lucky that my older home is already wired up to code,but my breaker is far from the garage so installing the wiring to support charging wasn't cheap. The rebates and incentives helped a lot here in MA,but I still see this as a big barrier to wider EV adoption across the US.

I’m curious about this too and will be finding out with each passing year. The dealers have dreamed up a 10k mile service interval that just seems to account for loss of oil changes etc given there isn’t much to service

I don't mind gas stations myself,but it's an advantage to not need to stop. It does require a little bit of planning for long one day round trips in cold weather. I have a hybrid Maverick and if there's any doubt,we take that over the EV. But usually finding some charging isn't a huge issue in most of New England.

I agree with you for the most part. But my wife is a high miles driver. The OEM tires are still good at 40k miles but due to change soon. But those high miles fixes do start to add up. Timing belts,spark plugs,water and fuel pumps. I’m doing all of that with a relatively bullet proof Mazda that is approaching 200k

I tend to believe the numbers especially as I suspect the first wave of buyers have made the upgrades needed to support home charging. My wife has an EV and is very unlikely to go back after her first experience. I'm hoping the lifetime maintenance costs do balance out as we don't really save on gas due to having some
