I have a set of the Open Country’s on my 2007 Silverado. I have a 2 inch leveling kit up front and an add a leaf in the rear to help make clearance, they are about 34inchs tall.

This certainly has changed my mind about riding in the Backseat of a Model Y for any reason.

Tom - I want to add something to this. For the buyers who like to walk the lot and browse inventory, the best time to do that is early on Sunday Morning as the sun is rising. The dealerships are not open yet - generally no one is there - and you can walk an entire lot without any sales people bothering you.

That is one Mean Looking Patrol Car.

The non-street legal “trail” versions of the Surrons are already a big problem. I mostly see clueless parents buying them for their teenagers who wheelie them on public streets while not wearing proper safety gear.

oh goodness yes. Why some vehicles do not have that helpful little arrow is a disgrace - especially when you rent cars a lot.

yes, there are oil changes and other fluid changes on an ICE.

$12000 to replace your battery pack is about twice as much as it would cost to replace an ICE motor.

I would personally prefer there was no winter blend in California and I would gladly pay the higher price for better gas.

Those price tags are why people are keeping their ICE Vehicles longer and just fixing them instead of diving into the EV game.

I have three high mileage vehicles with no payments.

I currently have Zero Payments.

I live in SoCal, so it rarely rains and when it does rain I drive my paid off truck.

There is still the high cost of purchasing a new EV.

Range is not the only or even the main thing holding people back. It is the cost.

100% these Kwh numbers mean nothing to those without an EV - which is still the majority of the market - thus the majority of those reading Jalopnik.....

Battery Recycling is a HUUUGE unknown - so yes blanket statements that EV’s are better for the environment are really only targeting Emissions, they do not account for the full lifecycle. In 30 years we will know more about how used batteries in Junk Yards are impacting the environment. Maybe it is no big deal..... we…

I cannot figure this website out. Last week Jalopnik is pushing to ban all large vehicles to supposedly stop pedestrian deaths - this week they are showing with video how the size of vehicle is not the problem - the drivers are. Lets find a narrative and stick with it eh?

If you are spending over a million dollars fixing a thing - perhaps dry dock is where the repairs should be made???

BART train going from San Fran back to Oakland around 1 or 2 am.
