Coryton created a synthetic fuel using 100 percent agricultural waste.

My understanding is that it takes a bunch of electric to produce the fuel. The problem is that if you are going to generate that green electric anyway, it’s way more efficient to push it into a battery then to build carbon chains. This presumes that batteries are cheap however.

Where Canoo is “based” is a tough thing to track down. Wikipedia says “Torrance, CA” but media/press releases list Justin, TX (current) and Bentonville, AR (future...?) as “HQ”. FWIW their official Linked-in says Justin with (some?) manufacturing in Tulsa, OK and soon-to-be Oklahoma City, OK.

Especially now. Hammond and May seem to be just these pretty nice blokes who dabble in side projects and enjoy each others alcohol.

Didn’t manufacturing move to Taiwan due to labor costs in the first place? The irony...

It’s a feature, not a bug. Why do you think they locate their plants in the "business friendly" South?

Its a European factory, so I’m willing to guess the cars will be for the European market, which means that they will be on the smaller side. Hopefully there is an avenue for great small cars returning to the US in some capacity. I loved the Fiesta and Focus revivals of the early 2010s.

It’s important to understand that in Texas’s deregulated grid, these shortages and price spikes are a feature, not a bug. Power plants that sell electricity into the wholesale market only turn a profit when they sell during these price spikes. The system is working as designed, since its designed to make money for…

Ah yes, I want nothing more than for my car to be assembled by an over-worked, sleep deprived technician.

“truthful story”, also lol :) 

I don’t mean to make this suggestion lightly, but is Elon bipolar?

Likely that, or just a sociopath. He’s admitted having Asperger’s, and that can have impacts on a persons ability to relate to others socially... but it’s just as likely that he’s a power drunk nerd that has become a raging asshole and high on his own image of being “funny”

Well clearly you’re our enemy!

These fucking things.

Truck Nutz is so obvious I’m surprised it wasn’t in the prompt.
