Fisker gone, Rivian next.

I lost. It’s as ugly in person as it is in pictures.

The red seats made it a No Dice for me.

It will be interesting to see how the EV transition plays out. My guess is that GM will still be a player but will once again have to be bailed out by the federal government.

If I’m going to go EV, it has to be affordable. If China is the only one making them, then that’s who I’ll buy it from. Biden has made it clear that he really doesn’t care about saving the planet.

I’m loving my Starlink satellite internet

The long game is to stay profitable 

It’s kind of strange how the Biden administration touts their green credentials but wants to put tariffs on Chinese made EV’s. Is climate change important or not? I think a good compromise would be no tariffs for EV’s that sell for less than $30,000.

Toyota is killin’ it; Tesla is doing what needs to be done to stay profitable. Both good decisions.

Fisker, Lucid, Rivian, all sure to die. Survivors will be the ones that actually have something that people want now.

If we want to get serious about switching to EV’s we should remove all tariffs and allow our market to be flooded with inexpensive foreign cars. Our automotive industry will still be able to sell the good stuff.

I don’t want to relive how bad these cars really were, and I don’t want my grandchildren knowing either.

The EPA, nor the presidency, should not be making laws. The correct order would be: 1) EPA explains what the new law should be and why, 2) Congress passes the law, 3) the president signs the law. The people, by electing their leaders, have had their say.

A 24-year-old Subaru, maybe. This car, not so much.

Looks like other companies are adopting the Toyota Way by finally embracing hybrids.

Obviously, you have never been to a church potluck where beans and cabbage was served.

They want us to adopt EV’s, but they won’t allow affordable ones to be imported to protect against job losses? The American auto makers are plenty smart enough to still make money, this is why they don’t make small affordable cars.

My first generation Miata is still a joy to drive, but ingress/egress is getting more difficult as I get older.

I don’t know, my old man mind thinks it’s kinda cool; but it is a Chrysler product. No Dice

With the mass adoption of EV’s I think it’s high time those owners start paying their fair share of road maintenance taxes. Some people rich enough to afford new EV’s got $7,500 tax credits, and they don’t have to pay road taxes. There’s something wrong with that picture.
