Papa, I believe it’s time we discuss the next step in my driving carer.

That’s because the two cars you just mentioned are PHEV’s (assuming that the i3 had the range extender option). This is different than a full EV. On a PHEV, there is an ICE, typically smaller in size, works with an electric motor to form a genset, charging the battery while driving, while another electric motor

Those aren’t electric vehicles. Don’t get me wrong, plug in hybrids are great (source: the wife has one), but pure electric still has a ways to go psychologically. If I have a commute that is not bike-able but less then 40 miles OW you bet I’d be in an electric car. It’s just, for most people, they don’t have a spare

Correct me if I’m wrong, but don’t the incentives only really help once you pass your standard deduction? For a married couple you might not see any benefits depending on your situation since there is a high standard deduction.

Let’s get real here. It’s not the EV’s per se. It’s the half assed attempt at making EV’s from the majority of the big 3 that’s the problem. 87 miles on a charge, on a city car? Even for a city car, that’s ridiculous. Get stuck at long light? You’re done. Get stuck behind a slow truck? You’re done. Point is, the

Leasing says you only pay for the first 3 years depreciation. So a $23k car might depreciate to $11.5k. If you have $7.5k Fed + $2.5 State + $1.5k in incentives, then that $11.5k in lease payments is covered by the $11.5k you’re getting back as incentives. In fact, year 1, you’re ahead!

Señor Couthard should never have said this, unless he can back it up, and he can’t.

Jason Cammisa, Matt Farah, and Danny George would be my choice. But it really needs a Raph or Torch grenade dropped into the mix!

He clearly has no idea that you own a hotel on Ventnor. Pissant.

It didn’t work on me, but a friend of mine bought 2 kias... because... I don’t know, she only needed one. So she just had this second car sitting around for a while

I’ll bite: I see the Stewart thing as different. You don’t walk onto a live track in the dark. Period. You want to make your point? Do it in the pits. As KyBusch did.

What’s really weirded me out is that my dad left part of his car collection to his kids as well. 4 cars to the three kids of his two wives.

getting a few hundred thousand dollars worth of jewelry or artwork may be possible, but when the few hundred thousand dollars weigh 50 tons and take up the better part of a city block in sq footage its probably a different story.

If anyone cares to watch the replay, Logano was going to intentially pin Busch, using Keselowski as a pick. Busch, who wasn’t having it, turned down into him. Logano didn’t like that so he accelerated into the side of busch in the middle of 4, knowing he would dump him. Not a fan of either driver but Busch had a right

I think McLaren are just hanging in there until such point when F1 regulations allow a 3.8 liter twin-turbo V8 because honestly, that engine seems to be their one-trick-pony for everything.

Lamborghini: I didn’t sign up for this!

Subaru builds the GT86.

With no proof? Do civilians usually get a rundown of the information gained in raids? We’ll literally have no idea whether or not this raid was worth it until the info found is declassified.

Right, because veterans and widows have never ever been at a SOTU address before.
