I hear ya, but there are plenty of companies that sit on boatloads of cash without their shareholders suing them into oblivion. Nintendo has at least 1 year of cash reserves if they made zero income and maintained expenses. Apple is in a similar boat with around 8 months of zero income / maintained expenses.

I like the idea of having a government competitor. It is a way to keep prices fair and a serviceable consumer flight industry alive.

The caveat here being that the workers were producing a service (and supporting goods) that was being consumed by others - creating an economy.

Nintendo is my favorite cash hoarder with somewhere in the neighborhood of $7-8 billion in reserves, or 1-2 years of raw operating expenses. Seems responsible.

Question: How many months of regular daily expenses do you have in your savings account at the bank? Its not a great investment, but it is cash that’s always going to be there.

This. They can even take the same name as the old airline to save costs in paint.

You know how financial professionals are always telling people to make sure they have at least 3 months of daily savings in the bank? I think most advice is typically 6 months of savings.

Real pro tip?

Yup. We own such a spot. Many folks have found their pockets emptied by the Sheriff after visiting our property without our permission.

Yup. We own property with a power line easement running through it and I have to give the unfortunate news to many Wheelers that someone can, in fact, own the power line road.

Does it come with Firestones? 

I can also set a response hysteresis and an ‘aggressiveness’ factor to my adaptive cruise. It never floors it and it waits for you to make a decisive decision before reacting.

My Hyundai’s system yells at me if it thinks the conditions are too dangerous for its capabilities. It’ll slow if the road curves too quickly and it’ll slow if it loses traction.

Can you CSI-level ‘ENHANCE' some more so we get a side view? 

We have used both. 3 horse with living quarters 5th wheel and a 2 horse bumper pull.

EV towing is currently an issue because it hasn’t been a design consideration. Once you set a goal for at least a few hours of towing range, you’ll end up with a truck that can reasonably go 200 miles with a load... And probably 600 miles without one.

So my wife said she needed a new car and would only accept an EV... maybe I can convince that this is waaaay better than one that can tow a horse around.

When is the square-backed wagon version coming?

Totally.

Hehe. Of course!
