Gen 2 is where the fun died.

This affects a small number of cars. But if it’s yours, it’s a big deal.

A city bus costs easily $300-500k. That’s with an ICE engine. Near $1M for a BEV.

And mid 90s Chrysler Concordes/Dodge Intrepids/Eagle Visions

These and Previas.

This should’ve been an EV.  Toyota really messed up.

Toyota FJ Cruiser - no additional words are necessary - resale value speaks for itself.

Yes, but EVs also existed when ICE vehicles were being developed.

Now do 100+ years of fossil fuels...

I think as demand for gas drops, investment in R&D in it dwindles, reducing supply.  Prices may remain stable, but in the long run they should go up as the old curmudgeons hunt for the last drops.

This is where dealers actually make a difference, because once someone drives an EV, they have an ‘oh shit this is awesome and my ICE shitbox sucks in comparison’ moment and their mind can be changed.

Considering NYCs speed limit is for the most part 25 mph, a regular e-bike (28 mph) is just as good as the LiveWire. Best thing? On most, you can take the battery inside your home to charge it.

4th Gear: absolutely right. Over-throw the government, deny reality? Get rewarded with a majority.

1st: Tesla jacked up the price right when competition arrived.

True.  Typical jalop response: “throw on some snow tires and you’ll be fine!”

Taco Bell. Starbucks. McDonalds. Anyplace you’d want to spend 15-30 minutes is perfect for fast EV charging.

I was thinking Bolt EUV as the obvious solution.

The 6-cyl is still 400 lbs lighter than the M2...

Three words for you: Toyota Supra Manual

Does it at least have the Magic Seats like that Fit?
