And? Its still a certain amount of commitment when he could have gotten a job closer to home. Large corps reward commitment with overwork and then disposal is the story, not that someone who wants a good paying job and is willing put in the effort is (somehow) to blame for corporate mismanagement and short term stock…

Its bad that everytime I hear about someone putting down a pet I will have this image of Noem gleefully popping one into her dog. Worst timeline ever.

Perhaps, fundamentally we should all be asking, why is Fred Beans?

Maybe the as of yet unnamed driver should stick to sports?

The rest is fair game but the speculation that its Santino does feel...premature? That he is a MAGA dipshit is not wrong, so just linking to the previous articles as a wink wink nudge nudge is probably more even handed since there is a good chance it will come out its him.

Yea, I’m calling flag on the play here. Has there ever been a mandate that led to an industry being “killed” as a basis for this claim? There are certainly examples of specifics businesses going under due to not being able to meet a mandate but there are always others rising up to meet them. Hell, every expert said…

That’s the used sales game now.

I dunno man, I watched this video and was told in serious tones this was the best product ever?

Unpuckering a sphincter after a surprise accident can get pricey.

The Lotus Elise/Tesla Roadster/Vauxhall VX220 was a lovely little design for the time; the Tesla was certainly more staid compared to the other versions but these weren’t meant to be lux cars.

Morgan Plus (4 or 6)....be an adult.

I’ve often wondered the reason for the cultural undertones behind this. In other parts of the world, parents need to drive kids and things around just like in the US/North America...but I think the social perception when you are of age to buy is the factor. In other countries, smaller wagons were the norm; in the US…

Larry had the LC in this along with the other Toyota offroad models. Not sure why, but I actually like the 4Runner more?

I need an EV that charges to 500 miles of range in 5 minutes just like a trip to the gas station or they are trash.

When they were available dealers complained they couldn’t sell them and they are low margin (because of complexity) compared to EVs (at scale); cars take a while to build so deciding to keep something when at the time nobody wanted them was a hard sell.

Toyota had built in clientele with Prius; other OEMs were still…

I didn’t say they don’t have an impact (I won’t buy a Tesla because I don’t have an interest in giving him money); I just said that it wasn’t the primary impact that Collin was implying it is.

I would love to see Musk get his comeuppance and god willing it will happen sooner than later. But his personality has been on…

FWIW, part of the issue with Tesla (at least in the US) is that there isn’t a natural buffer of dealers buying cars. As unenjoyable as the purchase experience usual is, dealers create a ready supply purchased with a 30+ day lead time on models and cushion against erratic swings in sales v. production. Investors aren’t…

It was time; took my kids on it last year and they said “why is it so loud” and “why can’t it by like your car?” (we have an EV); that being said, I took them to F1 the year before and they asked why my car wasn’t cool like those so...{shrugs}

That was not the point I was arguing. The assertion made by Collin is that Musk’s personality and antics are “The most likely explanation for the drop in interest”.

EV sales are slowing at the moment in 2024; they are still increasing in sales volume and taking share from ICE, but the momentum compared to 2023 is…
