I just think that the Bronco is going to be a better vehicle.

Airbags are for pedos. 

I genuinely think most people who are against EVs are ones who’ve never driven them.

Neutral: No. There is almost no reason to watch movies in theaters anymore when I can watch them a few months later from the comfort of my couch. With TVs now supporting Dolby Vision and Dolby Atmos, there is less reason than ever. 

2 years ago this would have been a $45k car. The current market is wild. 

I think their design is really cool. Their pickup is what the Cybertruck should have been and their van seems like a cooler version of VW’s ID.Buzz. That said, Canoo is too late to the game. Tesla was in early enough to establish itself as an automaker of EVs early enough. Now that the legacy automakers have entered…

Lordstown Motors is dead in the water. I doubt they have any IP that is worth a damn. A bunch of people got bamboozled on that one. 

EVs are actually much cheaper to *build* than ICE cars. They are currently more expensive because batteries and R&D push the price up.

Once the charging gets more rolled out unless people needed a gasser for edge cases the EV will be the default.

Is it a 4hr drive at 120 mph? That should be very doable by the extended range.

In theory, EV’s should be cheaper to build, or about even once battery prices come down and stabilize since they use considerably fewer parts to build.

What’s that market share going to look like in 5 years when there’s dozens of EV trucks, suvs, and crossovers?

You can’t say he’s spot on about BEVs and then say hybrids will still be a thing. Those are conflicting statements. PHEVs are a necessary part of the transition to BEVs. You’re out of your mind if you think all parts of the United States are going to have the infrastructure in place to only sell BEVs within 4 years.…

3rd: I think everyone agrees that this transition is going to happen, but I don’t think everyone agrees its going to happen as fast as you think it is. Not being hasty with the transition doesn’t mean other companies are behind. Moving to EVs before the market is ready will result in market share loss, and lost…

You mean you don’t love the 1996 Ford Taurus?

My understanding is that’s the optional larger battery size, which I’d guess will come with a hefty premium. 300 miles is either too few, or recharging is too slow. Current cars with a ~300 mile range would add about 1.5 hours of charging time to my most common weekend trip, which is usually 4 hours.

I’d rather have a Sienna with its hybrid drivetrain and Toyota reliability. The ID.Buzz is another story, but I imagine it’ll cost too much, take too long to recharge, and have too short a range to be competitive in the US. 

My question is how much of this car is unchanged from when it was originally released in 2002? It’s very clearly riding on the 370z platform, which wasn’t changed much from the 350z platform. Nissan just polished their turd and put it in a new wrapper. 

Is it possible that cars that are available in yellow depreciate less? It seems like to do this accurately, you’d need to look at data across several models that were available in all the colors listed, not just at the colors specifically. 

What you just said doesn’t make any sense.
