    I agree. But Freedom isn’t always free. Our freedoms will most likely cost future generations more than we can imagine, unfortunately.

    That includes his M3. Once the price drops, it should do down. Hopefully

    Much of Europe is like Japan. Small, crowded. Small cars. Short travel distances. EV friendly. On the other hand.....North America is vast which gives us freedom of the road. The aforementioned places don't have such freedom. When driving up to AK there was an almost 300 mile stretch between fill-ups! Yep, I could visit 3 or 4 Euro countries in 300 miles if planned right. Of course public transportation is amazing in those places. Yes...ours sucks in comparison. I'll take our vast wide open spaces and freedoms over anything the Euro's have to offer.

    now let’s compare and contrast the euro experience to say…the densely urban landscape of say…Chicago or Baltimore or nawlins

    one would probably need the speed and agility of a quick ev? Yes?

    Ukraine folks would prolly disagree. We are currently in a very precarious situation that shouldn't be taken lightly. Kind of a mess now. Not meeting recruiting goals. Focusing on gender and not on art of war. China has nukes with no nuke agreement. Iran apparently is hands off even though their proxies are trying their best to kill Americans. Yeah, no worries...

    I’ve said the same thing, but this hits different. Don’t think it’ll look like normal black paint

    Oh yeah. Hauls ass, built like a brick. Totally under rated. For me....best bang for the buck for what you get and what you get will put a smile on your face. Never considered the new Taco. I smoke em while I got em. On or off the trail. Still loving it after 2 years. :thumbsup::burnrubber:
