    If this becomes reality, I’d love one. But right now I'm solidly in the “way too good to be true” camp.

    60% that they make some...10% they make any significant number....0% the company is around at the end of the lease term

    The Tesla credit isn’t “nearly” up. It’s January 6th, the credit is officially gone for Tesla. 

    I might consider trading in my Faraday Future FF-91 on one of these. You know, once that’s not made up as well.

    I’ll believe it when I see it. As of now, Fisker has no established supply chain, no manufacturing facility, and no dealer network. Just more vaporware from the KING of vaporware. It’s alot harder to build an automotive startup then just renting office space in a WeWork

    An inexpensive, entry-level electric Bug would be perfect.

    Uhh, nope. Still sticks out like someone pooping with knees half bent because bad hemorrhoid.

    Also the abysmal mileage relative to all the other concessions.

    1) The United States is NOT Europe, in that we do not have the same urban parking issues European cities do and we also like to drive our cars more than 20 miles in one stretch.

    The stupid smart car failed because it’s stupid.

    What did they feed that Scion TC?!  Happy New, to the, year!

    I don’t see any reason to air my personal laundry in a post about autos. Also little Amos Yoder is doing fine, not that you ever ask.

    Nope.  I also don't charge my EV to 100% everyday.  And I damn sure don't plan to make it home on 0!  I do drive on the interstate everyday which unfortunately kills range

    “the latest year for which data is available, only 4.9 percent of vehicle trips had a distance of 31 miles or more.”

    If this mattered, the millionth Ford Focus Electric would be rolling off the line soon.

    Range anxiety is mostly irrational. Facts don’t matter and won’t matter.

    And the market has moved away from that range. 130 miles means maybe 95 in the winter. I only charge to 80% because I want my battery to last. So maybe I’d get 75 miles in the winter.  It's fine for a city only car.  Most people don't won't want to spend 40k for a city Only car.  

    Some people have too much time on their hands.

    a pretty masterful job of physical-world trolling of Elon, who periodically needs a good troll like this.

    They should probably decide instead to move the cab forward and have a larger bed

    Hold my beer.
