I’m in the battery business and I agree, battery technology is changing very quickly. That being said, you can have all of these batteries that can accept a charge very quickly, but if you don’t have the infrastructure to charge them, it’s not going to take hold as quickly.

Battery technology is changing faster than that. Gasoline refining is going to start declining sooner than later. 

My 993 is worth more than a new car, and I happily paid a little more so I can can listen to my music and sort through my songs without having to pick up my phone. It’s nice to be able to take a roadtrip and have a GPS that isn’t suction cupped to my windshield.

Eat shit.

Or it could be that EV development costs are lower because it was committed to upfront. They’ve already spent $2 billion alone just to develop the Ultium battery.

I’m not going to tell someone what to do with their vehicle. If they prefer a certain approach, and that approach includes a touch screen, have at it.

Installing them in a vehicle smaller than a Bluebird bus and lighter than a cement mixer might be a good place to start.

I for one am excited that cheap money is gone.  Hopefully the fed upping the rates will shake out all these damn car flippers.  No one should be flipping civics or mavericks.   

They have multiple cars (likely) or travel for work a lot or work from home, or... Think of it as a good thing, it comes out for fun on Sunday morning, not for boring commutes stuck in traffic

There may be a few fools out there who aren’t shopping around and still think it’s 2021. I’m guessing those will diminish steadily as 2023 marches on and those dealers will have to face up to reality.

1 is all it takes sometimes. I'd take $8k profit for waiting a couple weeks. 

Me when I see $2,500 mark up on a base Elantra.

Somebody is off their meds. Delusions of grandeur.

No but you keep playing Freedumb victim

Yes becasue only having 10 years to lead up to this is not enough time to plan

This doesn't remove the engines from the road just displaces them to neighboring states

Boomers gonna boom.

From the future message boards:

So, is the Cybertruck going to be made with 304 (likely), 316 (better, but probably not), 430 (doubtful) or some other grade?

Only problem is that in 10-15 years, they'll be coming out next quarter still.
