lol fair enough and both of those would have about as much traction as my V10 powered go kart. I am pretty sure just idling would be doing burnouts lol.

“I’d settle for taxing investment profits at regular income tax rates.”

You are thinking to small, viper powered go kart anyone? Or maybe super/turbo charge it and somehow cram it into a Miata.

Yes but that is also a proper heavy duty truck that can do truck things. The equivalent ICE comparable truck to this would be the Denali 1500 which maxes out at 5100 lbs.

Exactly, also since these are coming from used vapes I think this is a great use since many would just end up in landfills and not recycled anyway.

Keyword, restomod, though I do mostly agree with you. Also while I generally dislike slammed trucks, for some reason slammed dually’s have a small place in my heart.  Probably because of the one featured in Replacement Killers. Though to be fair it was less slammed and more just lowered.

Look IMO lane splitting is fine, in stopped traffic in a traffic jam, or stop and go, but 100% do no think it should be legal in moving traffic when people would be merging/changing lanes.

I mean on one hand sure, a natural disaster is a natural disaster, but if it’s my ONLY form of transportation nope sorry. IF my choices are, help the grid and potentially strand myself with no transportation or fuck the grid but be able to get some place I know the option I am taking.

I would have to see the numbers. There is just no way you are having wait time in seconds, for a max 4or 5 person car, versus a bus that holds dozens.

“All this and I still dont understand the need for one 64oz cup to carry from the house, to work, the mall, gym, etc.”

Yeah dealers that do that kind of thing do so because they don’t WANT to sell the car, they use it to get people in the door and sell them an Altima.  And it’s not like the Z is some super special halo car.  Heck there are luxury dealers that won’t even give you the time of day unless you look like part, i.e. look…

Yeah I mean based that one example of my car, it’s different color and it’s a 300C not a 300S, my car with half that mileage may have gone UP in value in the 4 years I owned it LOL But I mean a 320 mil 2020 Model 3 performance at under $25k is crazy considering it was $56k new, and this has essentially no mileage lol

Possibly, couldn’t tell ya. Part of me thinks this is overstock inventory they are just trying to make ANY money they can on them.. thought considering how fast EV’s depreciate might be a bad idea to drop these on the used market at the end of the lease. I mean a 2020 my Model 3 with 320 miles, yes you read that…

Please tell me BEV doesn’t stand for Bentley Electric Vehicle. Kind of like Ferrari did, WE WILL NEVER BUILD AN SUV!!! Purosangue enters the chat, hey cool Ferrari build an suv, Ferrari SHUT UP you plebes, this is an FUV, a Ferrari Utility Vehicle

Well for better or worse they are eye catching so throwing a wrap with you business with certainly get eyes on it lol.  We have 3 in town, that I have seen, one plain, one wrapped in white, and one wrapped for I think an engineering or surveying business.

If they are doing this can we assume they made to many and everyone that actually WANTED one has it and now they are piling up with no new buyers.

I could be on board. IMO there are just certain controls that should NEVER be screen exclusive. HVAC, Volume, wipers. People are already distracted enough behind the wheel we don’t need them trying to navigate screen menus because they want to turn the air up.  If using your phone while driving is a distraction having…

Do you need to with a modern car, no, but if it’s in the 30's I will probably remote start my car a few minutes before I leave, mainly to get it warm ish enough for it to blow heat.

They were oem new. I don’t know WHY they kept dying, maybe it’s because I’m in Texas and its like the surface of the sun in summer, maybe it’s because IIRC, the alternator was located at the back of the transverse V6 right near the firewall and just didn’t get decent cooling/air flow. And being almost 30 years ago…

Oh those giant screens serve a purpose, it allows the automaker to heavily cheap out on the interior, you know by not designing/including buttons or knobs, and makes people think the car is “fancy” you know because huge screen. And it doubles as being a hug distraction if you need to adjust or change just about…
