This almost literally is the W-Body Buick Regal for the driver who is afraid to buy American. Nice Price.

3rd gear. what i haven’t heard in the debate over EV vs. ICE is all the (what I am guessing) extra manufacturing processes required to build a gas or diesel drivetrain. How much machining is required for DOCH valve-trains, turbos, 8 speed transmissions, etc. that is not needed for an EV? I don’t know the answer but…

An executive leaving a company would likely want to diversify his investments. Maybe he does think Tesla stock will take a hit, but it would be a bad idea to leave his money all in one stock either way.

In your free time, you can also Google how Hertz seems to just have poor inventory control in general. Sometimes, employees fail to account for where cars are dropped off, and the solution is to... report them stolen.

Recently had a Hertz rental due to a car accident. The first FOUR cars they attempted to give us reeked of smoke. After the fourth car they didn’t have any other vehicle in a 60 mile radius to transfer in so we had to deal with it for a day, when we came back the next morning to switch the car out...they tried to…

I have the opposite position, i think it is going to happen faster than most think. We have been getting announcements for years now, and timelines and projects are only increasing in pace, it is not a linear path, but an increasing one.

Frida can sense that there’s more to this island than meets the eye. something she can’t quite put her finger on.

SNAP is only $120.00 per month in Ohio. You’re possibly better off with a decent car.

Most households applying for SNAP no longer have to pass a savings/resource test in order to get SNAP benefits. This means that the household’s assets (stocks, savings and retirement accounts, etc.) are not considered when determining eligibility.

It’ll probably cost more $$ to conduct these asset tests than it costs to administer the SNAP funds.

The government determining the value of what items you’re worthy of is exactly the kind of Cold War Communism shit they cry about from liberals. 

Yep. This is an old classic, along with: “How come the homeless have cell phones!”, “The poor shouldn’t have TVs and Refrigerators!” and “How dare people ask for public assistance while spending money on internet access!”.

From quoting a lot of automotive production parts to all of the OEMs, I now have a nose for vaporware. For instance, I have quoted a ton of Rivian parts - even early on they were prepping the supply chain. Starting to get desperation requests for quote, so they will be on the roads soon. Early on, saw lots of Tesla…

Much more than half of the country fits that.

Republicans at all levels are just plain out of ideas. “Poor people are the enemy” is one of their classics, which they dust off from time to time whenever “brown people are the enemy” sounds too racist. This has nothing to do with saving $$ for the good taxpayers of Ohio.

Hello my fellow Jalops — I was thinking we should start a car company. All you need is a passion for cars, making grandiose promises, and then not delivering on any of it. I feel like we’ve known each other for a while, and with our shared knowledge and ability to creatively riff together, I think we could put…

yes and no. that would be true if:

It’s not like Shell or other oil and gas companies tried to hide internal data proving climate change and fought any meaningful change using misinformation...

I’d be willing to bet it makes it here, but it won’t make it as a Toyota. We’ll get one as a Lexus, because I think Toyota has realized Americans are more than willing to pay for the Prado, we just can’t call it a Prado. The GX470 has been growing in sales volume every year since 2011, despite the fact that the J150…
