If you didn’t already have your solar panels good luck finding some after the apocalypse happens. And if that apocalypse is the result of a super volcano that blots out the sun for decades your solar panels won’t produce enough electricity to power a flashlight. Just ask the dinosaurs.

How does one recharge an EV in a post-apocalyptic future? Asking for a friend.

I agree with most of what you’re saying but a list of $30k EVs that are still eligible for the Federal tax credit is a mighty short list.  Also, most sources indicate charging on house current gives you about 3 miles per hour, useful for many probably.

Wandering around the neighborhood indicated in the listing on Google Map’s streetview it doesn’t look like an area you’d expect to find a car like this. Census Bureau profile says the median household income is $67,000/year, again not the kind of place you’d expect to find an Aston Martin Vantage for sale. But, hey,…

Only a jerk would start a car with a hand crank.

America: defined by fear misplaced anger for well over a century.

Jason would never do that to us.

Isn’t this how newer Teslas do it?

Upper 40s to low 50s here. I’ll be taking it out today.

Something, something, always the answer. No back seat, no room for family to ride along.

Even under the proposed legislation EV tax credits are aimed at affluent households not middle-income earners for whom a $12,500 tax credit is nearly meaningless. According to U.S. Census figures the median household income was $67, 521 in 2020. For a family of four making that income the tax liability wouldn’t be…

Asking price ≠ selling price.

Chevrolet Monza, Pontiac Sunbird, Buick Skyhawk, Oldsmobile Starfire.

Different, apparently, just for the sake of being different. Wouldn’t it have been cheaper to use the same parts bin 4 button unit VW uses on literally every other car they make?

“If I were Chevy, I’d kill the Bolt model and relaunch whatever the next generation is with a totally different name.”

The results come from polls of their members/subscribers. They have to have enough respondents to be statistically significant. Apparently with these brands they didn’t.

What? No “Magnifiq”?

In today’s era of cookie cutter sameness, an odd and quirky car like this would be a breath of fresh air. Unfortunately, we’ll never see a manufacturer take chances like this again. This one looks to be in really good shape and seems to be well maintained so even though the price is a little strong it would be worth a…

You’re taking this way too seriously.
