the Oldsmobile 5.7 diesel wasn't nearly as bad as you've heard

You know it costs like $80k/year to keep someone in prison, right. Is keeping someone in there really going to benefit society?

You know shipping containers aren’t built to be their own transport, right?

Armored car, but not for the reasons you think.

Yeah yeah yeah. Everyone knows Valor’s build quality is lacking but their running gear is second to none. 

I had a 74 MG Midget with a 1275 A-series and a Weber 32/36 (shut your mouth, it was the best option at the time).

Remember when Ford put the Ecoboost v6 in the F150 to improve gas mileage? Remember they got all kinds a shit on because when you actually towed with it the gas milage was worse than the V8 it replaced?

Sure, slap a Chrysler badge on that and put it in showrooms.

I’m wondering what PSA expects to get out of this. Access to the US market? Maybe Jeep?

Sorry, why does FCA need small cars in the US?

The thing is EV’s and Tesla’s aren’t entirely the same market. One of the higher ups at Toyota said something to the point of: People buying Tesla’s don’t want an EV, they want a Tesla and what that represents.

Well, if they offer the option of a spool in place if the differential it could be setup for rear drive. 

Why it’s bloody stupid to do this.

It’s not like Tesla SuperChargers are all in upscale boutique-y neighborhoods. Chain Hotel and supermarket parking lots seem to be norm.

2. So it would seem, but I’m not defending Musk in his libel case - just getting tired of biased journalism.

Government spends it on what they call road diets to take away drive lanes

Tesla’s are incredible for what they are... That should be enough, no need to exxagerate, if it can best the F150 in range and tow capacity it’s a winner... The rest is just meaningless aggrandization.

neoliberals let them because surely all you needed was the image of a level playing field to achieve one.

I disagree. If the bulk of your daily driving is less than 40 miles a day, a level 1 changer would work fine. Your battery doesn’t need to be fully charged everyday. The car will work just fine if you start the day at 80%.

 Munro performed a tear-down of a Model 3 and flat out stated they had the best battery design on the market
