Always assume the police (anyone in power?) are not acting in your best interest, especially once they have you in cuffs they now assume you are guilty and will act accordingly.

I had a Chevy dealer attempt to charge $1200 for dealer prep. After digging at them they revelaed this included a pin stripe down the side of the car and nitrogen in the tires.....that already came from the factory with nitrogen in them....which is a scam in itself. They literally tried to scam the scam and cover it…

You mean single issue ‘fascism’. Regulation of roads/cars is not fascism. You may not like it, it may be antithetical to our American values, but it is not fascism if democratically elected officials enact these regulations. Driving is not a right. Hell if we got together as a society (through our democratically…

Ok yes I agree in part with you, but this is not some liberal semi facism thing. It’s just selective outrage, and it’s common to both conservatives and liberals, meaning everyone. Don’t try to make it more than it is with your own personal bias. That’s how we become divided on issues we all actually agree on to turn…

Not to mention how badly affected the handling/braking of these POS’s now become...Oh, should be awesome when someone gets rear-ended by one as well!

“...a $500 “general admission” ticket, featured no views of the track itself; instead, you’d hang out with a bunch of other F1 fans in a convention center and watch the race on TV.”

The headlights are the issue? I always assumed it was because you have a blind spot for roughly 30' in front of your vehicle.

4-time Mazda owner (2 new, 2 used). Yeah their dealers historically have been a bit scummy. I know this is counter-Jalopnik, but I’d really be interested in a Mazda hybrid. Something a little more future-proof, but I’m not dead yet either.

I would imagine the ramcharger would not let the battery deplete below 25 percent and would only charge the battery to about 80ish percent full. I could see users being able to select an “ev mode” to keep the gas engine from turning on but when the battery gets to a low enough threshold that will no longer be…

So what you’re saying is that there is nothing on the market like this?

UAW Documents list the Wagoner and Grand Wagoner will be using this same platform, so expect this powertrain to be put in those vehicles. 

He said unlimited battery range, which is true if you put gas in it.

Not at all. This is more akin to a locomotive, than any hybrid on the market. The ICE engine does not directly power the wheels in any way. 

If they price it too low it will be another Ford Maverick situation where everyone will want one and Chrysler won’t be able to keep up with production and dealers will mark up the MSRP.

The 4xe is a plug in hybrid where both ICE and electric connect to driveline. This is range extended battery electric vehicle. Essentially, the V6 is not directly attached to the drive system. The V6 is only designed to recharge the batteries as needed.  This is an electric vehicle prepackaged with a generator like…

This is exactly what I’ve been waiting for in a hybrid vehicle.  Electric for the daily commute and no worries about range or sitting around waiting to charge on a road trip.

and the ever dangerous intentionally ignorant

Worse than uninformed, many are misinformed. 

Look at so many lines of evidence over the last few years, 50% of Americans are and have been uninformed rubes and will continue to be.
