If you have to wait 35 years for a car to become unimpressive, it’s impressive.

They have times for that, however it’s typically a months wait for a loaner appointment. For something like a silverado with a window that drops in the door at random, you can’t really wait that out.

Not elder Gen X as I am in my early 40's but 100% remember leaded gas, and pull tab soda cans lol.  There is like what 2 whole generations that don’t even know WHY it’s called unleaded gas.

As a boomer, all I can say to you is get used to it.

As a Gen X’er that turned 50 this year putting elder in front of that hurts!

I’m not sure how long the market expects to go on like this.

I ran it aground because I shorted the pasta market. I’m going to make billions.

evs arent even close to being as bad as ice.  the only reason this is a problem is because we dont bury our lines like smart people would and that weve half assed the grid since ww2 and done nothing for infrastructure. it only seems like a lot because weve done fuck all for the last fifty years and its way behind.

Not sure how you came to that conclusion, but our infrastructure sucks from decades of under investment..

I don’t think this is saying EVs are bad at all, it’s just a fact that our grid sucks and needs an upgrade.

Learn a lot about life at the Boat Ramp
