It’s death but a thousand (well a handful) of cuts....Taycan, e-Tron, MQC, i-Pace, Kona, Bolt, e-Golf, etc.

But it is a zero sum game. There will be a finite number of EV buyers each year even if the market continues to grow rapidly. It’s a matter of market share, and Tesla will need a minimum portion to be able to sustain operations. If Porsche can push their sales below whatever that figure is they could very well fail.

Hot take: if they can make equal or greater profits exclusively selling $29,999 EVs they will drop ICE like third period french.

It’s exactly a protection racket.

This is where...

This is silly when the db levels emitted by Medium and Heavy Duty commercial vehicles is deafening not from their exhaust but from their cooling fans.

I wouldn’t argue that but its certainly not enough to explain away all that has gone on in Detroit in the last 10-12 years. Local, State and even Federal policy cannot change the fact that manufacturing has suffered a rapid decline in the last 20 years and the entire economy of Detroit was based on the manufacturing…

Pretty sure it was the economy, not political ideology that turn Detroit in to what it is today.

I don’t watch F1 all that much but when did pit crews grow to 20 people?

I don’t understand the Jalop circle jerk over this thing. it looks like a 2003 Chinese ripoff of a Lincoln.

100% the C9 will be a plug-in hybrid. 50/50 it’s all electric.

I think what manufacturers are saying with Autonomous is that (like always) it will be legislators and regulators that slow a technologies entry to the market rather than the technology itself.

Not a chance. She would have done this in a Smart car. It wasn’t that she knowingly decided to try and take the stairs. She made a wrong turn and it was too late by the time she realized what was going on.

You’ve got my take wrong I think....Around here the ones making the most noise about housing are “young activists”, otherwise known as upper middle class or higher college kids to early 30's professionals that want to live near the beach/restaurants/clubs rather than being 30-45-60 mins out of town.

Yes. Drive a PDK and you will be too.

Yes, but what would it be like for those families if millennials from all over the country hadn’t showed up to so-cal with their unused college money and a beach cruiser and started pushing families out (the same ones now complaining that they cant afford a two bed near the beach).

You know what my parents gave me towards my down payment? Absolutely nothing.

Its not about my tiny dick, i was simply demonstrating ive been living and working my way through one of craziest runaway housing markets for more than a decade. I live in one of the most unaffordable markets in the world and I’ve never complained about it or the sacrifices I’ve had to make. I’ve certainly never…

If that’s what’s necessary to support yourself and/or your family, yes.

I think youve misconstrued advocating and whining.
