Chevrolet is bringing out their own EV trucks which will be better in every way than anything Lordstown can produce and available long before any vehicle rolls out of that dump of an assembly plant. The Biden administration should concentrate on changing the economic balance in favor of EVs rather than picking winners…

Lordstown Motors is changing their name to Swing State Motors so their appeals for money are more obvious to average lawmaker.

25 years has left us jaded. This is a beautiful mid-engine roadster with 4 liter flat six for under $100k. That used to be some serious exotica. Now its ho-hum.

Ichor - I learned a new word today. Thanks Torch!

Until the company issues more shares at that inflated price, something Tesla has done many times.

Many people invest in Tesla because they want the company to expand, build more factories, and lead us into an EV future. That core of people (and the success of the company) has driven the shares relentlessly higher until it became a self-fulfilling prophecy. Invest in a company as a good deed is a new concept and…

Yes, let’s have hundreds of unpaid amateur athletes to risk their health for 4 games beyond a regular season for our entertainment. If the value they get for playing football is a scholarship, maybe they should spend some time in school.

But no other team can afford him or provide a winning car so Lewis has no reasonable alternative. The only way Mercedes can justify paying that…

AlphaTauri and Red Bull won with a Honda. Renault and McLaren couldn’t win with Renault.

I guess Jason’s ChangLi is out of Fashion.

For most of his tenure the Renault engine was a laughingstock. Honda, another laughingstock, actually started from scratch and eventually surpassed them. The Renault F1 team was outperformed by non-factory teams several times over. It is about time Cyril was told au revoir.

Sometimes I go on my own (like today) but sometimes I call up a buddy and we just wander up in the mountains for a few hours. Great therapy.

Wow, installation of a wind turbine is an amazing erection.

A beautiful design for a not-so-beautiful car. This really shows what GM can do engineering and manufacturing wise. And if they have already designed hybrid and forced induction versions, that is truly impressive. Now get some new stylists.

Elon is busy. He should hire me to find and purchase cars for him. I’ll come get the Yugo first.

and pixelated.

Sure they had a choice. If the party your are representing stands for something you don’t believe in, you can stand up and take the consequences or resign. There are other careers. How much is self-respect and just doing what is right worth anyway?
