So it'll be a cute in-town runabout.  

Seeing that it only has L2 charging, the range can’t be that much, as they're effectively useless for a road trip.

NP on the car, CP on the seller.

On low production cars it’s one thing, but right now I just got a quote of $40k out the door on a used Trailblazer. FOH.

Not a state, but Puerto Rico is still US, and specifically because they have a Euro sized specialty plate

GM's no longer eligible for government tax incentives, and it doesn't look like BBB will pass.

I’m genuinely glad to hear that in at least some parts of middle America, Teslas are prevalent. I’m in one of those coastal cities (but in a deep-red state) and it’s kind of awesome seeing EVs of all types on our roads: to the point that Teslas are as common as Camrys, and I’ve seen 6 different manufacturer’s EVs…

Just wanted to add, my local Lexus dealer has a massage parlor on site. A fucking massage parlor!

I can't argue that point.

Humans are complex.

Umm, reading your experience, other than the at-home service (and btw, I live in a neighborhood full of Teslas and have never seen this), you just described the standard luxury brand dealer experience. It mirrored my experience at the local BMW, Audi, and Jag dealer, as well as at my dad's local Lexus dealer when…

The amounts invested by legacy manufacturers into this tells me that they’re in it for more than just some compliance cars.

Readily available means that they can pop by a dealership or store with their old car (or no car) and leave in a new car. Granted, it’s mostly due to outdated laws, but the fact still remains that…

IRS Section 179: IIRC, Businesses can deduct $25k for commercial vehicles purchased that weigh between 6000 and 14000 lbs. That’s the F150 lightning, the Hummer EV, the Rivian R1T, Brightdrop EV600, and likely the Silverado EV and Sierra Denali EV.

Companies are going to buy fleet EVs just for the weight based tax…

I’m not saying dealers specifically. I’m saying (once inventory shortages end), they can go to a physical store (can be adealer, can be OEM owned - doesn’t matter), buy a car on the spot, and drive it home from there.

EVs will become the norm when the most normcore EVs are made.

An affordable electric SUV, sold using processes that are familiar, using a name that’s already known, from a brand that’s familiar.

“Not sure how”

My neighbor drags an actual power cable from his townhouse down to his car, which...I guess works?

As a previous resident of a town neighboring Clermont, I’m not surprised that this happened in that shithole. Rest assured that Clermont is where Florida man was born and raised.

What a horribly shitty situation to be in for women.
