Quad cab pickups *are* personal luxury for many of the buyers. Look at something like the 2-door Lincoln Mark VI: it was 216 inches long! The quad cab F150 is only 7% longer.

There are these things called hats that keep most of what you’ve mentioned above from happening.
If you’re driving hours on end, don’t put the top down.
Depending on type, costs could be twice as much. Sorry for getting into the weeds, but look at cheapest pickup, Maverick versus cheapest BEV pickup.
The coup was coming from inside the house all along!
So, my wife and I was just talking about the Orange one.
Not sure about this one. Who knows if Trump has friends who want to do something for the environment.
You know that spot where they have a sign to advertise Marlboro for $8.99/pack? Right there. The charging station could go right there.
I wouldn’t call current gas stations “hubs” either. You’re talking on a scale those places aren’t trying to serve anyway. Installing in ground tanks and pumps, not to mention the environmental impact and mitigation isn’t cheap or easy either, but it happened. It’s start with the bigger places like Sheetz, Love’s,…
What’s the point of raging on American-built electric car incentives other than to own the libs?
Any road trip involves planning a route, the assumption is that there are gas stations along your route, while with EVs that’s just a little more complicated. Not much, though, since we know this fellow is going to take the interstate highways from KY through WV and MD to get to DC. Here’s a map (I started in…
Donald Trump does not have a friend
who owns a car that gets 38 mpg.
Nothing except possibly the universe starts everywhere all at once. Even a cup of water begins freezing one crystal at a time, and then another freezes and then another. Those are the green dots on the left. When more people in the green dots buy electric cars, and then people just outside the green dots buy electric…
Donald Trump does not have a friend who owns a car that gets 38 mpg.
Once upon a time, back in 1986, some guys in Germany took every single thing they knew about making cars, and invented some more stuff, and put it all into one neat little package...
The Ferrari GTO. Drive it from Maranello to Le Mans. Win the 24 overall. Then drive it to Paris and go clubbing.
Mercedes 300 SEL 6.3. Take the 300 SEL which at the time had a 3.0 six as the standard engine and throw in the 6.3 litre V8 from the 600 Grosser. Leave the looks alone and a sleeper that could surprise many of the muscle cars and sports cars of the day.
After 3 months of being punched in the stomach every day it would become normal too.
VW really screwed the pooch with all the haptic shit. No one asked for it and most people hate it. It is actually a deal-breaker for me. I have a Mk 7.5 GTI MT (which has nearly perfect buttons, knobs and switches) so I’m prime candidate for a Golf R or another GTI and I simply won’t buy one with the new controls.
I don’t understand how these things get through testing with actual humans? We know most new cars go through real world testing - hence why we get all the camo shots of upcoming cars. I see a camo’d next gen BMW X1 on my commute most mornings. So we have to assume these things, along with the infuriating infotainment…
