I don’t know of any traditional hybrids that have a full electric mode, nor do I think any have big enough batteries to make it a viable mode.

If you are averaging 30 on the surface streets, you have to average over 72 on the highway, including on and off ramps.

good luck getting Texans [living in small towns and rural areas] to vote [for anything that changes any sort of status quo or does not directly benefit their interest directly and tangibly] to change the state constitution

You’ve done nothing to defend why the brand matters more than the price. Unless you can point to an EPA codified definition of a “luxury brand” then it is a completely irrelevant opinion...price on the other hand is an objective way to control what cars are available for the credit.

Can you not currently hose out the Express van? obviously not the dash, but I feel like as long as you don’t get too crazy you probably could? Also I guess that would depend on the slant of floors and if they drain or pool in the footwells. 

Where did you find that the Ionic5 gets the credit with the SUV price cap?

Why does the brand matter? The Lyriq is cheaper than a Model Y. The BMW X5 and 330e are also included as well as few Volvos, FWIW.

It’s always a good sign when the breadsticks are dripping with butter. Our cross country coach told us if we went there for carbs a couple days before a meet, to NOT eat the breadsticks. We promptly ignored him every time the angel came around with the basket.

Manifesting a Fazoli’s to open in Houston so I can relive high school and [pretend to] not worry about how unhealthy those buttery buttery breadsticks are.

Unrelated, but almost related: The Original chicken sandwich was my BK go to when I was a teenager. Now that I don’t eat meat, I think it would be one of the easiest things on the BK menu for a plant based option. The taste and texture of the actual chicken (from what I remember) is not very different at all from the…

I don’t think Texas has any plans to annex any parts of Sinaloa.

Oh, so before someone says some racist shit like “go back home” they ask if you are here legally?

I like the Rivian the most. And I love everything on the Silverado from the A pillar back...which is the exact opposite of the Ram, imo.

I like the front 1/3 of this, the back (from the missing B pillar rearward) is awful to me, especially the way the bed interacts with the cab.  I am a big Avalanche fan, so its probably no surprise I like the way Chevy did that portion.  The Silverado face completely ruins it for me though.

This is great news for GM. The Silverado EV is no longer* the ugliest electric truck.

Ultra luxury for the time, sure. But that was a time when the iPhone couldn’t send multimedia messages, was only on AT&T, and did not even have 3G.

I do agree as long as the team is red and called Ferarri, most people won’t care who makes the ICE in the back of it. It will just get harder for boards to approve the spending if there is no engineering benefit.

There are plenty of people in red states that do no vote red.

Well thats a horrible take.

You asked why we need OEMs, then continue to push OEMs? Ferrari and Mercedes are both OEMs, along with Alpha, Alipne, and Aston. If you meant that you want OEMs to build chassis but not engines, asking “do we really need them?” does not make that clear.
