I do understand what you’re saying, but you’ve got to keep in mind these guys livelihoods are on the line. It’s a crappy job, trying to screw people out of money to make money, some like it, some relish it, and some don’t.

Because.....South Korean.

I’ve never been to a Kia dealership, but I have to ask....

I’ve been through Deals Gap many times, a couple of them in a 5th gen Camaro SS 1LE.

This is for people who complain about people who complain about the twin’s complete lack of power:

Apparently, he had no clue of what he was doing, either.

Take a look at a Tesla dyno, like this P85D

A kid who complains of jokes being mean, and apparently needs a safe space, lecturing about maturity....

You’re right, that’s my bad, it was a poor choice of words.

That entirely depends, on some things yes, that would be true, and for some things no, it wouldn’t. Is John or Jane Doe willing to spend $10 more on their child’s $40 made in China toy? Would they be angry if the “made in xx” $19.95 glassware at Walmart suddenly costs $26.95? Would they be angry enough to not buy it?

Did you yell “for freeeeedom!” before the charge? Because that’s the important bit, can’t leave that out.

Old enough to drink, that’s really all such a response would require.

Well, the theory is that, yes the price of goods will increase. However, the quality, durability, and longevity of the products would also increase, since they are manufactured to a higher standard than what an 8 year-old Chinese kid could produce. Therefore, supposedly costs would equal out.

Did you try spikes or swords, or even archery?

Eh, yes and no. Some will come back, they’ll have to after all, if they want to sell it in the U.S. market. Many jobs will not, they’ll either cease to exist or be moved somewhere else, for production directed somewhere else.

I wouldn’t call it “perfect”, it’s a 52/48 split with the ecoboost vs a 53/47 split with the GT. If you want a “perfect” 50/50 distribution out of a front engine, RWD vehicle, then get an rx8 or a Corvette.

But they do taste good. Maybe you should start giving them something to fear.

So then you claim Tesla uses low quality motors?

Call it “job security”.

I wouldn’t really call a 53/47 weight distribution “nose heavy”, in fact for a front engine V8, RWD vehicle, it’s about as close to 50/50 as you’re going to get without using a transaxle. I know GM’s offering is slightly better in that regard, but an OHV/pushrod/cam-in-block design always will be. It’s a smaller,…
