Technically, all of Central America is geographically part of North America as well.

Geographically, Greenland is part of North America. Politically, it is an autonomous territory of Denmark.

I went straight from a fuel efficient pure ICE to an EV. Even with current tech and the price premium, EVs are way cheaper and cleaner over ten years. I think you get to cost and pollution parity after only six or seven years. 

Because we’d like for climate change not to ruin lives? Because we’d like there to be humans able to live on this planet in the future? Because we’d like to slow the human-caused mass extinction event that is ongoing right now?

Did you say that this will compete with a BMW, Mercedes, and a Range Rover? Because, I mean....it just wont. Not one single person on earth is cross shopping a GLS with a Jeep.

Australia had its hottest spring on record, and the American West is sizzling through one of the hottest springs on record and a mega drought, yet so many people still don’t give a shit to do their part to help out. They just keep buying heavy-polluting trucks and SUVs. Not everyone needs to jump on the EV bandwagon

20k is average

Oh, everything about the cars, medical condition, etc. screams that this is an older, upper middle-class white couple that are not used to being unable to toss privilege at a problem, because right now cash is truly king.

Depending on the car, the financing and the service covered under warranty, it can legitimately be cheaper in terms of total economic cost to buy new.

gotta agree with this here... cheap EV’s are where it’s at right now... we ditched my wife’s jeep for a 2020 ioniq limited in Feb... the cali rebate paid for the down payment, and we save over $100/month with the lease vs her loan payment. no gas. brand new/warranty. and soooooo many newer fancier features. it was

I just got a great deal on a 21 Nissan Leaf. $7500 rebate and got a higher than expected trade-in value for my 2015 Leaf. I know that this is not a car that is popular among readers here, but for those looking for a basic commuter electric the Leaf, and the Bolt, are good deals despite the market conditions.

He could also be drunk AND a violent racist. In vino veritias and all that.

White people polled recently have already turned reverted to their pre-George Floyd opinions on the policing/racial injustice in policing. 

It’s tragic, but one teeny, tiny silver lining, is that I’m hopeful Americans are largely finding common ground on many many issues and beginning to wake up from ideology soaked propagandistic news corporations that have had us at each other’s necks for decades. 

Intentionally driving your car at a police officer gives them the legal authority to shoot you dead, and rightly so. It’s Assault With A Deadly Weapon, officially. But to *some* politicians right here in ‘murica, such an event doesn’t even rate as a crime when the target changes from one kind of human being to another

You clicked on an article about racist infrastructure and your complaining that it was about racist infrastructure.

“Just like the rest of the media.” I’m sorry, but if you just want to live in a cocoon free of social awareness, you are simply wallowing in your own ignorance.

I haven’t been car blog shopping recently, but Jalopnik seems to strike a balance between anti-car transport/urban development blogs and the pro-car anti-environmentalist blogs.

Nope they cant. if you have a problem with it then dont read the article. No one is forcing you to. Or if it bothers you that much visit another car blog that doesnt harm your fragile sensibilities.

You could choose not to read it. The title didn’t mention cool cars, so you should know it was about infrastructure.
