Cool. As soon as we get the hundreds of billions of subsidies that oil gets ended and the market place is fair, we will talk.

Yeah, a few teslas in my area became a Porsche EV, an Audi, a Rivian, an EV6, and a Volvo. It’s kind of amazing how once an EV car with actual build quality became available the Teslas started to go away.

I have a PHEV from 2016, and only get about 15 miles (some situations as low as 8, some as high as 22) but it already makes maybe 70-80% of my trips fully EV. I am seriously looking at the Volvo wagon when the time comes to upgrade because the 40-44 EV miles would basically mean everything but summer vacation would be…

Or always use a public charger, depending on the location. My wife has an EV and never charges at home because charging at work is a benefit.

The space to charge compared to space taken up to fill up is a good point, but it will also be slightly modified by the fact that many (though not all) people can slow charge at work or at home over night. If everyone leaves with a full tank you have less space needed at many locations, and more at others. Combine…

Grill? You based it on the grill?

Ah yes, the battle cry of scum “morality isn’t real!”

First gear: so this year is just like every other year since the “self driving” phase of the Ponzi scheme started?

If you can’t understand how it is immoral to run a system where the typical income or lower means you will struggle to survive, then there isn’t much worth trying to say to you…

Most of the problems millennials face were caused by boomers. Do you think that that is only true if pointing it out improves the situation?

Some would argue that the point of having home loans is that you shouldn’t have to save for a house, but rather pay it off as you go…

Saw one Friday in Salt Lake. Only one I have ever seen. There are absolutely out there.

You have to be impressed with the sheer level of BS in the Ponzi scheme at this point. It’s honestly amazing.

Sorry, I don’t mean to say that longer loans are necessarily an issue, just that when a loan is an issue, longer loans make it worse. I have watched a few people who didn’t look at the terms or do the math get underwater on some bad car loans. Yes, that is a function of them assuming their loan would be “just mom and…

Having driven the XC40 and XC60, the new Volvos have a nice mix of what can be done which way, not to mention things that can be done multiple ways. Everyone (especially those terrible teslas) should take a class from them.

The recession has gone?

While that is all true, as car loans get longer and longer (who has a 5 year at this point, let alone a 3?) this is going to become a bigger economic problem, even if the defaults and repos never rise.

No, it doesn’t, because the majority of current inflation is profit taking by companies, and the historic reasons for inflation do not currently apply.

If he would stop being a worthless POS, we would see less of those.
