Why is it revolting? Because they didn’t make it clear enough the origin? Not everyone is up to speed on that and not everyone is willing to evoke the Nazi origin. They think the term is over used. It is NOT over used but people do start to take it too lightly. It starts to have an actual negative effect on the source…

Pulling your advertising is a big deal. Apple now pulled. IBM pulled. I am sure others to come. Free Speech is one thing, words have consequences.

No, Elon’s just decloaking, coming out of the closet or what ever you want to call it. Apartheid Elon showing who he really is.

I agree. It isn’t just EVs - ALL cars. Since first going to dealerships I have had a salesman that KNEW their products one time. Depending on the vehicle I have known what I consider enough to everything about what I am looking at. “Enough” is really the base level of knowledge about features, packages and specs. At a…

Pontiac Aztec meets Delorean. When ego and hubris have a baby.

No, you hear squeals like that just fine and even the slipping - even with vroom vroom as you say. I was watching the tires I am thinking it is software problem - as in the developers need to back to the drawing board and see how off road rigs get places. Certainly not the best tires either. Possibly combined with…

Who did we fight the War of 1812 against again? Righhhhht the same people we won against in the Revolutionary war. The British did invade and took Washington DC at the time as well.

Ironic right?

What?

Yaaa. Brought out during the height of the Cold War.

I can totally see that because that is what totalitarians do. The fact God was slipped in at some point (forget the year)... It has no place in schools IMHO. I am not a millennial and have always thought that.

What vehicle with any major repair work isn’t insanely expensive today? Replacement engines, transmissions, axels are all stupidly expensive then you throw in thousands in labor on top of it. My truck had the engine replaced under warranty. It would have cost me half the price of the truck - $17k engine and $15k labor.…

Huh? Look I am not buying an EV anytime soon but come on... What vehicle doesn’t have 100s of miles of range? Not all EVs have high base prices or bonkers horsepower. There are several for half that $60k number. Chevy Bolt - 27.5k, Nissan Leaf - $29k, MiniCooper SE -$32k, etc. Dealers were adding their own arbitrary…

Umm, My conventional Truck has insane repair costs. Like a new engine is $17k plus labor.

I agree - if that is really, truly what happened and there were not falsifications along the way. All too often there are falsifications by the police when they do something bad. More and more the body cams are catching them in outright lies about events. A current one - police reported they killed a man who was out…

The thing is most truck people don’t want an e-truck yet. And the ones that do don’t want Musk’s monster.

And proceeded to reduce it’s estimated value to $8 billion in one year.

There are a lot of challenges with the panels and the “beta” trucks out there are illustrating a lot of it. The NVH material needs to also last long term - not always easy. Adhesives and foams break down, fall off in heat/cold, etc. That still doesn’t address the structural issues of keeping the panels flat. I am a…

You don’t do something just because it is hard. That’s just silly. You do hard things because there is a good reason to do so - like Space X’s reusable boosters.

Apparently a lot more resistance because I know what Pantercougar is talking about. I literally brushed my mother’s when it was closing and it reversed. I was actually irritated. This kid hit it with his head and it kept going. I agree this was a no harm / no foul incident but I wouldn’t want to have a kid’s melon…
