Computer chips will be in high demand for the foreseeable future. Invest in chip companies if you haven’t already. I did.

Yeah, Why do they put an old man like him on a jeep commercial? Seems like us Boomers aren’t exactly their target market.

For me it’ll probably whatever car I have at the time of my death. I’m already 62, I live off the grid and without spending $40,000+ to upgrade my solar panels and batteries I could never meet the charging requirements of an EV.  But I can’t say for sure because there is this thing called ‘Hydrogen Fuel Cells’ that…

So let me get this straight, the Feds want to give $10 billion so freeways can be turned into boulevards? Thus making it harder for those in poor communities to get out? Most cities have these things called an overpass or an underpass to get through to the other side. Thus, the cities are no less connected. Maybe the…

Tesla can’t survive on credits forever. The question is will credits be enough to keep them going until they can actually make a profit selling cars?

For my wife and me it wasn’t the lights themselves but just regular aging of the eyes. After 50 for most people the eyes can’t adjust as fast to light and dark, causing increased eye strain and headaches. My eye doctor told me this is normal and to try to drive less at night.

You know I just can’t see Lexus as being anymore than a niche brand in the luxury market. It’s kind of like Cadillac, boring cars or SUV’s, slightly behind in trend setting technology. Still I wish them well.

In regards to Tesla’s first full year of profits we must realize that Wall Street looks at many different metrics when they determine if it’s ‘good enough’. Are they making any money selling cars? Or is it just because they sold a lot of carbon credits like before? Toyota and Volkswagen sold almost 19 million cars in…

C’mon Erik! In your first sentence in first gear you said Tesla outsold Volkswagen last year. Hopefully that was just an error by someone who didn’t bother to proofread your article. My guess it was just a bit of lazy journalism when you meant to say Toyota outsold Volkswagen.

This old man is still waiting for his nuclear powered flying car. Wait.

Self driving will get here someday. I think some Scandinavian will be a test country for the world. They have the money and a small enough nation to try it. I only hope it comes in time for my car to drive me to the doctor when I am no longer able to drive. 

Apple making a car? Sounds so familiar to this Boomer. General Electric (GE), once was raking in so much money that they invested in things they weren’t even familiar with, and hence were not good at. That once highly prized generational company is now a shell of it’s former self. Apple should be wary of what they…

Since everyone uses the roads and bridges, make sure everyone pays their fair share by including a per mile driven tax on electric vehicles in addition to raising the gas tax. Those gas tax revenues are only going to go down as people adopt EVs

Ugly then, ugly now. No dice.

Tesla is indeed here to stay. But I doubt our electric grid can keep up with the adoption of electric cars in the long run. Here in Southern California we can’t even keep the power on on a windy day. We have rolling blackouts during peak demand periods and the cost of our electricity is one of the highest in the…

Leave it running, at a liquor store, in a bad neighborhood, and they still won’t steal it. Damn it! How can I get someone to steal MY car?!!

GM to make Hondas and Acuras? There goes their reputation for quality.

When I was a kid back in the 60's we were supposed to have nuclear powered flying cars by the year 2000. Still waiting. I would like to have a self driving car on long drives up I-5 when I go from LA to Oregon. I often wonder how I got home while paying so little attention to driving. Self driving cars will eliminate…

In order to buy an electric car I would first need to be connected to the grid. My solar system + battery storage does not even allow me to run an electric dryer. After that I would need to have trust in the grid. I live in a high fire danger area in California and they can’t even keep the lights on during a windy…

As a California desert guy, about once a month. But it only stays looking clean until I drive it down my dusty dirt road.
