Not profitable? The supercharging stations in my area are charging 4-5 times the local utility rate for electricity per KWH plus idling fee’s and other fee’s. Furthermore, their taking advantage of multiple federal programs for Tax credits for alternate fuel charging stations. I have no doubt buying a single $20K DC…

I’ve lived in both the NE and PNW for years. In my experience, Technology moves West Coast to East Coast and sometimes very slowly. The fact that the states with the most progressive approach to electrification are on the West Coast, CA and WA specifically, means there’s a lot more EVs on the road. I’ve seen new…

I agree, I think there’s a horrible public misconception that tanks are a “dumb thing” when nothing could be farther from the reality. There’s a reason our tanks are so lethal, a combination of highly trained crews and technology, not just a superior machine. The same is true with our 5th Gen fighters which China and…

I always find it interesting that when the US provides sophisticated equipment to allies (or pseudo allies of convenience) that the public thinks the story ends there like we’re dropping off our car at a friends house with the keys- enjoy. Just a reminder, a Tank is a weapon system with highly trained crewmembers, and…

Just another misleading Jalopnik headline, I read 2/3 of the article to find out when it would actually slip the truth in and of course the comments to see who would be the first to correct the ridiculous hyperbole. 

Maybe Gen Z needs to spend a lot less time listening to those trying to convince them of their level of victimhood, or how to leverage it , and more time listening to successful people who know that having a destructive victim mindset/outlook gets you nowhere in life. It’s amazing that generations of people who grew…

I agree, there’s definitely some generational differences, but then again the saying is more true than ever that the more things change, the more they remain the same. I’m solidly Gen X, but I don’t find the need to vilify “the Boomer” generation why is that? Maybe because i’ve lived long enough to realize that every…

The Chuck E Cheese for Gen Z and Millennials has been Buffalo Wild Wings for the last 20 years. Terrible over priced fried comfort food, with enough distractions to have you not even notice the food. Where else can you go that you can sit with 6 friends and be so distracted by the sensory overload that you don’t utter…

In the context of GenZ, your comments and references make sense. I think there’s a misconception by a generation that think they should be able to live at the level of lifestyle their parents earned, and exposed them to, soon after leaving the house or graduating from College. Reality check, it doesn’t work that way…

Thank you for writing an honest article and assessment of the current state of EV vehicles. I already know the benefits, liberation really, of owning an EV so it’s good to finally see someone tell it like it is - ICE vehicle technology peaked a loooong time ago.

Ask yourself this question: Do I plan on driving more than 300 miles today before I return home? No? than your charger will be in your garage most likely which is the ultimate in convenience, and cheap charging. What percentage of the time are you actually on a road trip vs. commuting and returning to home? People who…

“...or give more money to the planet’s biggest douchebag” Yes absolutely, keep buying gasoline because we know how virtuous domestic and middle eastern oil tycoons are. 

As an EV owner I completely agree with your reasonings. Now, when I have to take one of my ICE cars for a road trip, and have to stop and pull out a wad of $20s (that I worked for) just to light them on fire at the gas pump I cringe; I’m so done with it. Sure, many people still want the “drama” of a V8 exhaust note,…

You made a lot of valid points. Unfortunately, NASCAR has tried everything possible to be everything to everybody and now their into on track character development over anything else. While NASCAR doesn’t hire drivers, they’re doing everything possible to get a more diversified driver pool on TV regardless of their…

I’ve been going to my local RR for everything from after High School event parties to family meals since the late 80s and my expectations and experiences over the last 4 years have never been lower. A recent RR visit outside of my local area will probably be my last for a long time since its just not worth it anymore…

Funny thing, if you presented your view on Cheerleader stereotypes to a group of them they would not only call you an A-hole for your male point of view, they would adamantly deny that its the intent of Cheerleading, and defend their choice to be exploited by the team owners with low pay.

Absolutely true. Why do you think teams have discovered the benefit in investing millions in virtue signalling campaigns like “End Racism” which measures ROI how?. There’s absolutely a benefit to organizations that operate in the public eye to have a plan of public misdirection so they can build up the publics trust…

We’re talking about teams that spend millions on virtue signaling campaigns like “End Racism” what’s the ROI of that money you suppose? Or is are campaigns of misdirection that buys them equity in public perception the next time some negative publicity comes out concerning something the owner or team in doing that’s…

Its easy to dismiss people once your minimize their contribution and focus on that they allow themselves to be exploited; isn’t that your real message?

I understand your the point of view, it’s simple and through a very honest lens if we were talking about the context of High School or College Cheerleaders. However, the author did an excellent job of describing the many, many, differences that make being associated with an NFL Team not just cheerleading; rather (obvio…
