Waze isn’t as good as it used to be. I got tired of it hijacking Apple CarPlay as the default map, so I had to disable it.

Where I live, there isn’t enough charging infrastructure for me to justify a pure EV. I will have to compromise for now.

Hey! Respect the OG! The Acura ZDX beat the X4 by 5 years AND proved that no one would buy them!

You just need some good lawyers to put on a good show with the right jury in the state the law is written in (checks notes). Yeah, this’ll probably work. I could totally see someone putting this together and suing to shut down coal, gas and oil using this bill in Florida.  Just get the right jury of anyone who can’t…

These nutjobs should get educated exterminated.

Coal, gas and oil are the leading sources of weather altering carbon emissions. Looks like this bill could turned into another conservative self-own.

If it’s global warming, that’s not possible because humans can’t impact the weather.

Hey, remember how Tesla got Department of Energy loans back in the day to support their early manufacturing!?

It’s amazing how the leaders of MAGA know how insanely stupid their base is, and how shamelessly they pander to and intentionally foster that ignorance.

Fun fact: if you check off all the option boxes, you can spec out a Kicks and even a Sentra to around $34K.

In my small Canadian city, the local Nissan dealership has 5 rogues for $50k and one for $55k (CAD). Why? Why is a Rogue 50k? Absolutely mind bending. 

1st gear:

I’m just an numptie that cant spell “MBA”, but it appears the biz plan was during COVID, raise prices per 6th grade-esque supply/demand curve principles. Then after COVID, KEEP those prices despite very new, very different supply/demand curve slopes, then stand agog whilst sales drop off a cliff.

Get ready for all sorts of epic blame-shifting.

They should let me be CEO, I’ll do just as good of a job in killing the company

A 3 cylinder?

Then you’re gonna turbocharge it?

And then hook it up to a CVT?

For 45k?

Hard no.

Coming soon to an airport car rental booth near you! You ordered a sub-compact? How about a Rogue instead?

In a word, no.  Life is too short to spend $45k on boring cars like this, especially those equipped with engines that probably won’t make it to 100k miles.

One of us has facts and the other is mad about it.

EVs have great prices and a lot of additional pros (to counter the cons you mention):
