Somebody beat that car with an ugly stick. No dice, ugly price.
I’m from California, and I still think this plan is just plain stupid. What really needs to be done is to fast track infrastructure improvements so the grid can handle our so-called electric future. No one is even talking about how the poor and working class will ever be able to afford an electric car, let alone have…
580,000 pounds? I didn’t know any truck weighed that much!
It’s still the wild west when it comes to EV manufacturers. Many of these new names will get bought out or just go out of business. Lordstown will most likely be one of them.
Ungainly. Ugly. They ruined a perfectly good car. ND.
Tesla is sort of becoming the Model T of EVs. Great technology, but their models are looking kind of dated. I hope to see some new product offerings, not just software updates, from them soon. Still wish them well.
We need dealers so we can see, and test drive a car before we buy it. Also, to fix factory recalls. That’s it. Otherwise, they are easily replaced.
I predict supply of new cars will finally catch up with demand, and we will once again see vehicles available below sticker price.
Tesla stock will drop below $100 when the market starts to value Tesla like any other car company. There’s fundamentally no way Tesla should be valued more than VW, Toyota, GM, Ford, and some others. Soon, every company will have an EV, which will make it just another car company.
Wow. The storm had a name? I guess it’s bad out there. Bad for me too. I had to park in lot 2 here at the beach in L.A. Crowded for sure.
Having come of driving age in the 70's, I can tell you NO DICE AT ANY PRICE. Stay away from any of those mid 70's POS’s.
They should just kill all these subsidies that just help those rich people buy new cars. That does nothing for a non-homeowner who can’t ever afford a new car. Let BEV’s compete in a free and fair marketplace and the superior technology will win anyway. No need for subsidies.
It’s good that Tesla wants to ramp up production, but they need to be very careful how fast they do it. Their product is not very compelling and there will soon be even more choices out there.
With the nearest supermarket 18 miles away, it’s just too far. Not to mention too dangerous on the highway.
In my job at the supermarket, I would have to listen to Christmas music nine hours a day, six days a week, for over a month. Most of those songs weren’t all that good either. Then when I came home, my wife and daughter were playing the same music. They said I was a Scrooge.
Yes it is. We can do both. Make the transition smooth and affordable so energy is not something just for the rich.
You hit the nail on the head. Explaining the hard realities is difficult for some to accept.
My ‘88 Chevy Nova. It had Toyota Corolla running gear, got good gas mileage, and was a perfect family car. I put 330,000 miles on that thing before I finally gave it away.
I give it six more months before used car prices subside. By then the supply chain issues should be completely worked out and demand will go way down due to unaffordability.
