Well hell.

Get ready to take that yard-shit!

It GMG media paid for it I'll shit in my front yard.

I love the Changli updates because I have never seen someone so enamored with a machine as you are with it. The pure joy on display here is delightful.

HR didn’t see it that way.

That’s the real answer. I’m now at my third dealership, and I’ve never once gotten a discount on any vehicle I’ve ever bought from my own brands. You want me to represent your brand - make it easier for me to do so.

It’s car-racism...

I suppose.  But they don’t carry the same stigma and gut reaction as a Tesla.  Which is very much a statement car.  

I’ve never understood the Foreign/Domestic lots at factories. I would understand a GM lot and an “Everything Else” lot.

This is such a ridiculous practice in the first place. If you want your employees to buy your cars, just make better cars.

I’ll tell you what it is.

That M45 was indeed a very cool car. I had a friend who had one and it was just a great cruiser with plenty of power. Infinity once upon a time built really interesting/fun cars. 

C3 Vette. Foxbody 5.0. Impala SS.

“but I still want to have some street cred with my uncles and cousins who still dominate the dirt track where I grew up.”

The other Teslas Erik listed are also available and can use Tesla’s charging network. Yet he said the Lucid Air was better than those.

I’m using the article’s premise, which doesn’t ask whether they’re in showrooms or not.

You can actually buy one ?

The Model S Plaid is just the regular Model S (boring, kind of chintzy, half-assed) with a bigger battery and the world’s worst steering wheel.

Lucid needs to stop making its case and start making more cars.  Its presence in the market is so tenuous I’m barely cognizant of it as a manufacturer.  I thought they were still in the It’s All Prototypes But Any Minute Now stage.  Like Lordstown but with a slightly weaker whiff of BS.
