Well, if I truly believed EV’s would help save the planet and all I could afford was a Chinese made EV, then yes, I’d buy one.

Now we truly have to make a choice; do we want to allow affordable electric vehicles to propel us to a sustainable future, or do we want to exclude a whole class of people unable to afford an electric vehicle?

If we’re serious about promoting electric vehicles we should not be adding tariffs to Chinese vehicles. What is the average Joe supposed to be able to afford?

POS then, POS now. No dice at any price.

I have no idea what these are worth, but I doubt ANY Fiat could be worth that much. ND

Ford’s quality issues are nothing new. In 1984 my wife and I bought our first new car ever; it was a Ford Tempo. Ads at the time said, “the quality goes in before the name goes on” and showed a factory worker happily slapping on a Ford emblem. That car was a POS that needed 3 transmissions in the first 36,000 miles,…

Count me as old, but I just don’t see those little delivery robots as becoming a successful business. They are too easy to flip over just for fun. I don’t know how difficult it is to break into to steal the contents either. Like electric scooter rentals, a good idea on paper but not in practice.

Once again Toyota has it right. A company has to make cars that people want NOW, and at a profit. They’ll be there as the EV revolution unfolds. Some of the EV and ICE makers will go out of business as they run out of money.

More Lincoln dealers gone. Ford should just go ahead and close the whole thing already. No compelling products equals no compelling sales.

If adopted this will cause more highway deaths than it will save. I recently passed a big truck on a two-lane highway going 45 in a 55 zone; I really had to step on it with my little car to pass quickly. I ended up going 70 for a brief period to make the pass as quickly as possible. Can you imagine what the head-on…

A true marvel of engineering

The name was misleading, but in a good way. I had ‘88 Chevy Nova, meaning ‘No Go’ in Spanish; It had Toyota running gear. I put 318,000 miles on it before I gave it up. It never gave up on me. 

We should give Toyota credit for making a practical, affordable hybrid. A 50mpg car uses half the fossil fuels of a 25mpg car. Let’s talk about how much fuel Toyota cars have saved since their inception.

EV’s will win out in time because the technology is simply better. Weak, poorly run companies will die. Toyota’s embrace of hybrids looks like the right call (for now).

The more I see of the state of EV uptake, the less convinced I am of widespread adoption. It’s great technology, and it will eventually win out over ICE. In the meantime, Toyota got it right, Hybrids are the winning formula.

Toyota is doing it right. We’re not yet ready for a complete EV transition; their hybrids are the best in the world. A winning strategy for sure.

Regulations in California have already made housing totally unaffordable for the average resident; now they want to do the same for cars too. EV’s could be competitive with ICE vehicles, but government regulations add a 25% tariff to EV’s made in China (BYD, NIO). Free markets would do better than government mandates. 

It’s the Democrats that do the most to promote Trump. Their fearmongering of saying Trump is a threat to our democracy, or that he led an insurrection on January 6th, or their over-the-top pursuit of prosecutions, or that he’s like Hitler, just feeds people’s desire to stick it to the establishment. Trump is clearly…

The fact that EV makers need a government subsidy to make any money says enough about EVs. The technology is superior, let EVs win on their own merits. Say no to subsidies.
