First Gear:
Mass Layoffs mostly have nothing to do with performance. I wish you wouldn’t insinuate that performance is the reason, Erik, do better. 

Neutral: Toyota Crown and Toyota Prius Prime would be top of my list. I’d love a PHEV which I can charge at work 5x a week.

1st Gear: No point of driving an EV if you’re going to be burning fossil fuels to charge it. 

What that means is that the cop car needs to be driving at a speed within 37 mph of the vehicle being pursued. 

Wonder how much it cost to install those chargers and any associated grid upgrades. Chargepoint 250 kW charger is $52,000 each, for reference.

At the $100k+ price point, I think the electric sedan market is Taycan by Porsche

The help can afford a $45k SUV?!

Caterpillar in late 2000's\early 2010's also added a contracting company as another layer when they were recruiting engineers who needed work visas (a rather big number onsite at Caterpillar in Peoria\Chillicothe IL).

3rd gear: Eying a used Porsche after tumbling into Brianna Wu’s Twitter account. However, used Porsches seem pretty unattainable in this market, and a new one is out of question.

Layoffs may lead to reduced morale and prompt others at GM to seek jobs elsewhere.

Tesla says it has temporarily stopped rolling out its Full Self-Driving Beta driver-assistance system in the wake of a recall that has impacted nearly 363,000 vehicles (AKA, every single Tesla with FSD Beta)

Lucid will call you 14 times to try to talk you out of canceling your order:

Depends on whether existing feed to your home can cope with the demands of charging 1 (or 2) EVs. If you need a feed above 200 A, feed wires have to be underground, so cost of trenching and cabling, breaker panel upgrades, any labor for an L2 charger, perhaps even installing a second meter just for EV charging to take…

1st Gear: I heard Focus and Fiesta are on their way out. Was hoping for more deets.
