True, a bit of an extreme case colored by outliers.

There’s no case where 50% depreciation in a year is a good thing.

“Why these EV makers don’t have some kind of way to generate their own electricity while the vehicle is in motion is beyond me”

In car enthusiast circles, it’s a VERY common word.

Yes, but the economics of charging stations are pretty bad. I would say, yes, they burned a bunch of money to build out charging stations. Anyone else is free to burn money to do so...but they don’t...as it’s basically building a machine that turns dollars into dimes.

Perhaps, but they seem to have kinda short lives.  I think it was Tavarish who got one super cheap and it needed a new battery for a lot.  I think he made a profit flipping to the mechanic for basically a cadaver car to learn on.

If you qualify for the credits.  That ship sailed for me long ago.

Yes, I have a feeling the $17,400 residual is quite high.  You’d probably be able to pick this up for less in 2027.

The gimmick here is that they seem to be having the Fed and CO tax credits “pay” the depreciation component of the lease ($12.5K together). Throw a factory incentive (discount) on top of it, and a near-0 money factor, and the “numbers work out”.

Yes, but thats a problem for the executive team 3 years from now.

If you say so. Very close to retiring early.

LOL, I live in a million dollar house.  And I have a few in the bank.

The remedy is supposed to be impeachment.  It was tried, it failed.

Hope you wrapped it.

And...burning oil isn’t a big deal. Just put more oil in.

Yea, and with gap insurance and a small claim amount, this can be pulled off easily enough.

Our education system is pretty bad, and basically tailor made to create debtors to feed the top tax brackets.

Yea, anything related to pharma or insurance, and the establishment will rally the wagons around the money.  I mean, MSNBC, CNN, and the rest would not exist without big pharma and the other related industries like this.

Not sure this is under the jurisdiction of SDNY, which is federal. This has a nexus in NYC.

A man who was threatening to kill people, who was alive after the hold, but did not get CPR due to being a high risk of HIV.  With a fuckton of drugs in his system.
