No company is completely innocent (just look at all the banks accused of fraud or robbing their own customers). But these days I will settle for the companies whose CEOs aren’t making “awkward hand gestures” during public appearances.

Not that General Motors is a innocent lil’ angel of a company... but I’m pretty glad we chose to get an Equinox EV instead of a Tesla. In fact- I’d say Elon just helped GM and probably anyone else who makes an EV a lot. 

(shrug) I trust a 101 year old to run the streets better than I trust a 78 year old to run the country...

Didn’t they start Making America Great Again with those hats? So moving stuff to sweatshops abroad :D.

Stop trying to apply logic to Trumpism.  They’re mutually exclusive terms.

Completely apolitical, purely economic question — what is the point of moving auto manufacture back to the US if it results in, say, 20% higher finished product costs for consumers? The pro stance are jobs (but of course, they cant be union ones, b/c unions are the devil), but if paying US wages requires a 20% bump in…

People should think about how they would perform basic tasks if they suddenly lost the ability to drive. We’ve spent over a century building a society around the idea that being able to drive yourself somewhere is a trivial bar to get over, but not everyone can, and we can do a lot better to accommodate such people…

Notice what he’s NOT doing — looking at/typing into/distracted by a phone. While wrinklies chartering a land yacht to procure produce via 50mph on a highway is sub-optimal, so are yoots going 90mph scrolling thru Insta and texting friends their party plans while balancing a hot venti and QT sando in their laps.

I mean it’s kind of cool, but 10k is crack pipe pricing when a similar example with the gas V6 is no more than $4000. CP

Exactly this. Either you are going to be a contractor ripping around town on electric mode, or you are towing long distances at which point the range extender is smarter. And maybe they didn’t want to take on the Silverado EV head on.

They have the vision, they have the designers, but even so this is hilariously ambitious.

Since poor people aren’t paying this tax, and the rich are, and it’s designed to fix public transit I’m guessing you’re just outraged for the sake of being outraged and you haven’t actually applied any logic to your argument.

The congestion zone is fully within New York. If that is “impeding interstate commerce”, then so does New Jersey’s tolls on their roads.

You are complaining about $18?

Financial burden of public transit compared to owning a car.  lol  First time I’ve heard that nonsense.  Thanks for the laugh.

The interstates are funded mostly by the Feds, but they’re owned by the states in which they’re located.  So no, he COULDN’T.

For some context here: New York also previously offered to integrate their subway system with New Jersey’s, and New Jersey refused to do that too, which is why you have to take one metro from New Jersey to New York, cross a big ass lobby, then use a different pass to board another metro. Or you can do the same thing…

Hard to think of a car I’d want more than this. Once you have that kind of money it’s A: monopoly money, and B: you’ll never lose money on this deal barring an apocalypse.

I had a 2004 GTO and loved the fact that it didn’t draw any attention to it, until I dropped it in 3rd at 60 mph to make a pass. Then you see that “what was that” look on faces :) 

I’d totally rock this, and I always liked the understated looks.
