Eh... I don’t really see the value over the CTR at this price point. Even if you pay a few thousand more on the front end, you’ll likely break even on the backend due to very high resale value.

I have long argued that community routes, such as delivery vehicles, sanitation trucks, landscaping companies, local repair outfits, etc — these are all the best use cases for an electric powertrain.

Now that is the sort of friendly, non-aggressive face more vehicles should have.

Deliveries are such great use cases for EVs. This is a vehicle that will never be pressed into extended range duty for a road trip, can be returned to a charging station every night, will drive predictable routes around which range can be managed, and depending on electrical rates, improve operating margins vs. gas.

You ever get the feeling that the thing that actually sinks these EV startups is that they are trying way to hard to hit an unrealistic standard? Like, they all want to come out and be the best most luxurious EV with all the best technology that’s barely even finished being invented. Then they get ripped to shreds…

Or lay off the amphetamines.

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, I’ll care about these companies when they actually start selling cars, until then they are just vaporware salesmen.

All that Milton needs to do to prove the nay-sayers wrong is to produce and sell a few hundred thousand vehicles. Such an action would be simple but not easy.

“Nikola’s stock is down 15 percent today after falling 11 percent yesterday, meaning it’s pretty likely a lot of investors have already decided who they want to believe.”

This company has generated more money for others in advertisements on Twitter and Jalopnik than it has on sales for itself.

The tesla clone company has a little elon clone too. So cute.

So if there’s nothing Volkswagen left, is it really a Type 1? 

If you believe a type 1 is even capable of 800 horsepower, I’ve got a bridge to sell you. 

...and you threw it in the trash...

Don’t throw it in the trash, that’s paying someone to haul it away. Put it in your scrap accumulation area, eventually you can take that to a scrap recycling center, and THEY will pay YOU to take it.   Unless you do it right, and at some point in the next ten years until you get around to hauling the pile off, find a…

It’s also sad because if you’re going to go for “Bond Villain,” why aspire to be Hugo Drax?

I’ve hit some crazy things with much cheaper cars and never had the wheel come off.  Tesla needs to stand by their product instead of coming up with bullshit excuses why they shouldn’t.  Tesla isn’t quite mainstream enough to pull this shit.

I mean... the rest of the civilised world has a considerably lower rate of spectacular car chases on live tv without a considerably higher rate of unapprehended criminals merrily terrorizing the populace. So I’d wager there are other ways to go about this.

I honest to god don't give a shit about Sam Adams and less of one about Jim Koch, never met him, never been to his brewery despite living 5 miles down the road. As for "yet another article about how Yuengling sucks," this is the first time I've ever devoted more than a sentence to the matter. I've ranked it low on a…
