As Demuro says, Land Cruisers are for rich people who don’t want to flaunt it.

+1 for Lexus GS, well depreciated into the $20's

If you weren’t around the car world back then, you’ll never really know what it was like, but this car got a bit over a decade of hype before it finally released to the ultra-wealthy public. Only twenty examples were built per month at a cost of $375,000 each, but Lexus reportedly lost money on every single one…

Despite its CEO railing against Biden, Tesla was more than happy to take the administration’s money.

I’m in Denver, we do see snow but it’s FWD and handles light snow easily. For heavy snow I have a 4Runner that is a tank.

Wife and I bought a Chevy Bolt EV last year, then a Chevy Bolt EUV this year. It is the first car in a very long time where I’ve thought “this car is worth more than I paid for it”. Both for less than $30K. Its main deficiency is charging speed.

No vehicle is perfect and Toyota has some bad years and some issues.

Comes off real easy, only costs .7 MPG per the TFL guys

Just got exactly that spec of Bolt EUV, it’s fantastic.

Reported on, absolutely agree. I listen to an hour of NPR each morning, it’s well covered.

I’m struggling at how to classify this article as associated with Jalopnik’s “Obsessed With The Culture Of Cars” mission. Is that why “drive” is in the headline and article 8 times?

No reason to wait, you can buy used ‘22+ Bolt EV and EUVs now. I’ve had both, they’re fantastic bargains for the money.

Nobody deserves that much money for anything, period.

The stock price is not equivalent to actual value of the company in Tesla’s case. The stock is worth an astronomical sum in P/E primarily because of his lies and hype.

I’m not sure I could justify ignorance of the facts just because I hate a person that I’ve never met so much.

The problem is that there is only the carrot offered to CEOs, the C-suite, and boards. There’s never a stick

Once past that question, ask yourself this—especially if you’re a Tesla owner or stockholder: given how much good $56 billion could do for Tesla
