A platform paid for by Daimler no less.

Going with my 2 favorite Japanese engines, Toyota 4A-GE and Nissan SR20.

Depends on location. As much as possible we should turn that space into housing. In places that have big auto malls we should encourage those zones to stay auto malls/squares/centers and be the storage, delivery, and repair locations for vehicles. But for those stand alone dealers away from more dedicated auto…

Start with an early 2000's Toyota Celica.  Get the running gear from a Leaf up front. Build a LiPo swap pack for the rear. Have it go in and out at and angle, not strait up and down. Two men should be able to handle lift it out and an angle and get the new one in.  It should be okay balanced with the weight. as its a…

Knights of the Good Boys at your service

I am about to go Baroque owning a rotary.

Someone is really lucky their Wish package is making it to them. Until, you know, they open it and are severely disappointed.

Nissan would have been great at it.  RIP Nissan

AW11 MR2 with mid mounted batteries. Do everything I can to keep the weight in the middle of the car.  Even with low power and a bit of battery weight it would still be a fun as hell ride.

Let’s say the creditors push to remove all inventory in an effort to minimize losses.  The smart people in the room have to realize that just dumping all those cars on the used market will suppress prices so bad they will not get anywhere near what they could in returns if they just worked to keep the business viable.…

Not just Hertz, but other brands will need to reduce expenses on the books, that means selling fleet vehicles that they have either made a profit on or can break even selling.  Even in a Chapter 11 will require brining down monthly expenses to meet court and creditor requirements.  Since fleet costs are a major part…

I don’t see Hurtz failing and dumping 500K vehicles into the market, I also don’t see rental companies dumping such a volume that they significantly hurt prices.  They will take a measured approach as these cars have loans attached to them they have to pay off. It’s not just about bringing down inventory but also…

This guy gets it.

I really don’t know if it will stay that way more than a couple weeks.  There are 2 months of pent up demand for vehicles and I can see some early discounts to get sales moving and then pricing adjusting after that.  Also I don’t expect too many cars to hit the auction houses for a couple months.  I think the low…

That has to Hertz...

RV rentals are spiking, in fact I think the new market for RVs may actually get more competitive as companies look to fill rental demand.

In the last 5 years I have become much less of a city traveler and more of an adventurer with my wife.  I have considered a truck or small SUV for my next vehicle so we can make it to more places.  I don’t do it because of the gas mileage and emissions.  I have a Leaf right now and my wife a plug in Niro. This would…

Holy shit 80%?  I would say that is about 5% away from critical and just 10% away from saying “We are starting a lottery for ICU beds.”  That’s really bad.  It would only take a small outbreak to fill much of that 20% up.  One big church meeting with someone spreading it and BOOM no beds.

A verbal soul snatching, shit was MINT! I really love watching anytime Symone is on.

It’s really not that easy for some states that have deal friendly laws on the books.  The best move is to find ways to minimize the inventory they can get and when.  Don’t offer anything than bare minimum support required, and make it known you don’t want them around.  I know that Kia and Hyundai recently forced sales…
