1st Gear: cross border tax and inheritance laws, even in a place like the EU, where they’re rather harmonized (yes, I know about Switzerland) are still a mishmash of conflicting regulations that add unnecessary complexity to the system…and here in the US, we have idiots screaming about ‘giving it to the states’,…

He can try moving out of California, but that huge educated base that makes his businesses possible won’t have any of it. Remember when he moved Tesla’s R&D to Texas a few years ago? What happened? The solid majority said ‘no way’ to the move, and they couldn’t find enough talent locally. They were forced to move it…

The usual excuses. Couple those with those who exhibit political bias on the matter, and it clear to see we won’t get anywhere.  Let every other country beat us, once again. 

Actually, if you lose, we’ll still have a country.  Priorities.

Too damn big and heavy. 

That project to no where, miles and miles of open farmland, in regions where barely anyone lives, was pushed by local red district politicians. Place the blame on the right people.

If the donor engine comes with all required emissions equipment from that year, then it’s legal.  You can even get a waiver in California doing such a thing.  

How did anyone avoid jail time from breaking the Clean Air Act?

Now build a car on the same platform at the same price.  These tall riding vehicles are so yesterday.

Got a first gen 500e. Perfectly reliable, not one visit to the dealer for any issues, the Carfax can confirm this.  Battery is showing almost no depletion after 108K miles.

You are parroting American preconceived notions. Fiat does quite well on the sales and reputation end in Europe, South America and other global locations. If it was as bad as some people parrot, they wouldn’t be around after 125 years.

Venture capitalists of that era wanted long term growth and stability, seeing your examples. Today’s equity bandits are in for a quick payout, end results be damned. But you already knew that.

Exactly that, the reason I gave up.

Oh, he nailed it.  Why are you a corporate bootlicker?

You mean the place filed up with a bunch of racist Nazi fucks, aka trumpers. 

can’t believe this.

Pity who ever controls security for that prohibited airspace didn’t engage in established protocol for eliminating the threat.
