Not in the States. VW has a terrible rep Stateside. When it’s time to sell, you can sell your Toyota instantly, anywhere, for top dollar.  VW sells about 350K units annually here, Toyota sells 2 million+.

Bexcuse the batteries are showing good durability. The cost of an engine and transmission also exceeds the value of most 10 year old cars as well...

One thing about Yugos: Whenever I see them placed on an “ugly cars” or “ugliest cars” list/book, I immediately conclude that the author has no credibility. They simply include the Yugo out of sheer laziness.

Of all the problems the Yugo arguably had, styling was not one of them. It’s a very conservative, aesthetically

Tell us why you would make a great candidate for owning this vehicle

Just because BEVs are cleaner on whole than ICE vehicles doesn’t mean that we can’t and/or shouldn’t examine their environmental impacts. I dare say that such examination is good, actually.

The issue with EVs is that they didn’t have a chance in 1900. In most cities, they used gas lights not electric lightbulbs. Take Chicago. In 1893, they hosted a world’s fair. Their were tons of firsts, one of which was that the entire fair was lit with electric light which was such a wonder for the era and nobody had

Unfortunately, human activity almost always has an environmental impact. What many don’t realize is that you have to do a trade off.

The example in the WaPo article that you quoted was an iron mine, the product of which is obviously not exclusive to EVs. You know this, and I know this, and I’m sure most people reading this site know this. But a lot of people that read the source article will either not know this, or not care, or miss the part where

No matter what they said regarding this - they look bad.

Not to mention I, as a F1TV subscriber, can have a little map of where every single car is on track (example pictured) for like 10 bucks a month, so to say they didn’t know where he was is absolute garbage. I’m happy someone was relieved of duty, and they seem to have some useful things to implement. God willing,

Race Control do not necessarily monitor all cars that may pit during Safety Car periods

Hey, keep them!

In all the years I’ve ever owned a truck, I didn’t once think “Man, this thing is great, but it’s just missing the ability to be a boat too!”

First gear: I don’t believe a single word that comes out of that dude’s mouth. Musk is a perfect example of why CEOs need to keep their mouths shut when it comes to anything other than legitimate business discussions. He is the primary reason I will never buy a Tesla.

Fourth gear:
Too little, too late. People have

It’s like the current GOP can literally not find a public policy issue to not take a regressive and backwards stand on. I’m half expecting a GOP candidate to come out and publicly demand that NASA admit to covering up the fact that the earth is flat. Or that it is, in fact, the center of the universe.

Probably because this has been in development for a long time now and they have too much invested to just abandon it, so they added a hybrid option along with the turbo version.

Something from VW is more complicated than it needs to be? Color me shocked.

For very good reasons!

Highway mileage in the high 20s? With that weight and aero? Yeah, bullshit.

I’m happy you’re happy. Fusion is a great car, I’m sure the plug in is great too. And we dont have any way to go back in time a see what a regular fusion would have cost you at the time with the same mileage and condition, but I am strictly speaking about new cars. Tax credits when available also change the math. I’m
