This was going to be my next car. I sold my Kia EV6 when I heard this was coming out and have been driving my old SUV in the meantime while waiting for this.

I’d say I’m the target demo. Reasonably well-off but not rich. Enough money to buy stupid nonsense (boats...why did it have to be boats). As a kid born in the 80s and loving life in the 90s, I love the throwback 80s looks with modern flair. I love the headlights and taillights. 200 mile range would never be an issue…

I’ll start criticizing America’s love for gas powertrains when an EV truck can drive across Texas without having to stop four times to charge, eight times if they’re towing.

I wish you the best of luck finding a new position not working for that douchebag. 

Shame we can’t take a few percent of what he spent on Twitter because of his stupid ego and let these people keep their jobs. 

Ouch. Hope you find something better real soon

Why is your one example proof of that?

IMO it does not make sense to buy an EV if you are planning to rely on a charging network for anything outside of the occasional longer trip. If it is your commuter car, you’d better have a 40Amp+ charger in your garage or dedicated parking space. Anything else and you’re better off with a PHEV, HEV, or just regular…

This is not any kind of amazing coincidence; Ford has a recall most days.

With all of that known information one would think these supposedly trained, professional LEOs could have come up with a better way to take this guy in other than trying to swarm his car in plain clothes and guns drawn.

“Plain clothes or not, I know an unmarked Police Ford Explorer when I see one.”

None of that justifies 5 cops firing 96 times. The criminal penalty for everything you described is not summary execution. Cops aren’t supposed to be executioners.

Sit in the quiet for 41 seconds. Do nothing. Feel how long 41 seconds is.

Five plainclothes officers from a tactical unit for a seatbelt violation? I doubt it. Probably this guy was under surveillance already and the seatbelt violation was just an excuse to bring him in for questioning. I suspect we’ll learn more about what went down and why in the coming days.

Chicago police claim…

Meanwhile in Iowa, the clowns that run the state are in the process of banning communities from creating police oversight boards https://www.thegazette.com/state-government/iowa-bill-would-ban-citizen-police-review-boards

Don’t defund the police. Just disarm them.  Take those guns away and see how they treat strangers who may or may not be armed.

Oh hell no. I’ve got pretty good headphones. Screaming kid over fresh shit smell every fucking day.

So there isn’t an infinite market for hulking pickups that run a typical $70K-80K to put one in your driveway (since it won’t fit in the garage)...”shock”. To me the crew cab version with the small bed is simply an ugly ungainly sedan with an exposed trunk...really? So people gravitating to more workable vehicles gets…

You conveniently forgot to mention if he’s eligible for those upgrades based on status. If so, there’s nothing wrong with this. I’m a NYer who hates Adams, but this is just cheap “journalism” and not even aviation related.
