You appear to have twins, yet “I love that kid.” is singular.

I believe this is correct.

This is basically the comment I came to make.

Nice negotiating skills!

I’m always required to provide nude photos as part of the credit application process , that’s probably how the dealer got ahold of the images in question .

Well, Mexicans, anyone working at a supplier that supplies parts for these cars, anyone working for a company that exports to Mexico, and any UAW employee that likes their $9k+ profit sharing check each year.

Yes, I agree that’s what he’s hoping for. It’s unlikely that a small car that’s already marginally profitable is going to make any business sense when it needs $1B in capital spending for a new factory.

Even in the great depression (undeniably an extreme case) MOST people had jobs. Right now, even more people have jobs. So for MOST people, $20k is still more than $15k.

To the degree that new tariffs are small, nothing will change other than reduced profitability (and UAW profit sharing). To the degree that they are large enough to change anything, I think it makes product go away.

Must have thought he was James Bond. And his Jetta was a Lotus. And his passenger was Pussy Galore.

Most people rely on our cars to get us to work, even in bad weather. Fortunately for you, what you consider your commute probably involves stumbling down the stairs in your boxers. This should be possible even if none of your 17 Jeeps actually has wheels.

This is a good point. However, since no pricing has been announced other than the $30k base price, everybody mentally forgets that and the Tesla Model 3 is a “30k car!”

I would for sure pay more money for a self-driving electric car than I would a gas focus commuter car.

Serious question - have people been able to do this for things like the software-locked batteries or the current autopilot system?

While that would be great, the article clearly says you will have to pay extra for the feature. The hardware will be there but the functionality will be deactivated unless you pay. I would not be surprised if the Model 3 has a top level option that is well over 60k with the performance and self driving features you’re…

If I order it now for delivery in 2 years, when do I find out how much the one I want will cost me?

What a trashy video.

It’s the prototype for this:

And I hope to be there to read it!

Just my 2 pennies.
