    Not TSLA but important development: Hyundai shuts down ICE R&D engine division

    Jeremy, I suggest you research this a bit more before posting these statements. I have read numerous books on the subject and watched several documentaries to get a sense of what happened. DeLorean was entrapped. Period. The government's case, including their evidence, didn't stand up to basic...

    Is GM putting 100% effort into EVs? NO! - new ICE engine introduced

    True. No argument from me, and I have 2 GM vehicles. Dodge is even worse in the trust department IMO. No legacy automakers are getting my business from my next vehicle purchase.

    Tesla's AI Day Event Did A Great Job Convincing Me They're Wasting Everybody's Time

    I started reading and asked myself what is with this guy, and then scrolled to the bottom and sure enough it was written by Jalopnik. Figures. Here's the thing: Every time I drive, I'm already surrounded by people who are driving, but not driving, and they are not driving Teslas. They are...

    Toyota Prius Driver Pulled Over for Starlink Dish on the Hood, Surprised

    Apparently the Prius driver already tried turning right against an obstructed view judging by the damage to the passenger side of the car. Lol.

    Ford CEO On Mustang Mach-E Vs. Tesla Model S Plaid Drag Race: “A Good Idea”

    Yes, recent versions especially the upper trim levels gradually added strength to the brand, and then Ford added the badge to an electric SUV/CUV, which is my point. I didn't say that it was. The parallel is that in both instances (1) the Mustang II and (2) the Mustang Mach-E, Ford strayed...

    Ford CEO On Mustang Mach-E Vs. Tesla Model S Plaid Drag Race: “A Good Idea”

    No worries. Given your age, I'm sure that the Mustang II is ancient history for you. But I'm only a few years older, and I remember the crappy car and the lasting negative brand effects very well. In fact, at an early car buying age, it turned me off from ever considering buying a Mustang. As...

    Ford CEO On Mustang Mach-E Vs. Tesla Model S Plaid Drag Race: “A Good Idea”

    Yep, the automotive press is speculating, and using the popular Rally Yellow in their renderings. Heres the thing. In my opinion, it's not about how fast or capable an SUV/CUV is. It's about a manufacturer watering down a storied brand just to compete in the next hot trend. SUV's and...

    Ford CEO On Mustang Mach-E Vs. Tesla Model S Plaid Drag Race: “A Good Idea”

    Yeah, I get it. An ICE manufacturer hedged their sales bets with a new electric car by invoking the familiar brand recognition of their popular car. My opinion is that there's no imagination or innovation to that. It was the same tactic that GM used with their behemoth Hummer resurrection.

    Nice video. So, gigapresses are eliminating robots? I guess they had it coming. Lol

    Ford CEO On Mustang Mach-E Vs. Tesla Model S Plaid Drag Race: “A Good Idea”

    I can't believe that Ford sullied the Mustang name by putting it on an SUV. Of course I always wondered if the Mustang GT Cobra was a horse, or a snake? And aren't horses afraid of vipers? Inquiring minds want to know. Will the hyper SUV version be called the Ford GT-E? ...sarcasm off... I...

    Model S Plaid Delivery Event

    That was a nice delivery event, and an awesome model refresh. Can't wait for the revised CT design reveal.

    Study: Tesla's Range, Performance, Styling Attract Buyers, Musk Detracts

    Well said. That was my take too. As far as Tesla and Musk are concerned, (coming from a non-Tesla customer and a non-BEV owner), I saw Tesla as the head and shoulders leader in BEV. Now that the tipping point is upon us, competition is on the horizon and approaching fast. That is a good thing...

    GMC shows off Hummer EV “CrabWalk” feature in real-world conditions

    Cool. I remember seeing four wheel steering for the first time in 1988 on a Honda Prelude: As with the Hummer. the Prelude in the video was white too.

    Study reveals EV secret: They are driven less than gas cars

    I was referring to a longer term study that hasn't been written yet because the post-Covid experience hasn't happened yet. As far as near term monthly sales reports go, yes, used car sales are up as that is what people buy when they need transportation if they can't afford/get approved for a new...

    Study reveals EV secret: They are driven less than gas cars

    Aside from the gradual ramp up of EVs in the years since 2017, another study that would be worth seeing is the usage of EV and ICE vehicles pre-covid, during, and post-covid. I have seen a sea change to virtual formats (when possible). I know in my situation, vehicle use has dropped...

    GM to go all EV by 2035

    Love Will Ferrell. Hey "gm", that's pretty forceful for an aspiration. ?

    GM to go all EV by 2035

    Agreed. Of course the corporate speak was carefully worded, but an "aspiration" is apparently not what the market/media heard. They heard "all electric...2035" Here's the actual phrase: "In addition to GM’s carbon goals, the company worked with the Environmental Defense Fund to develop a...
