    that's unfortunate & it means NOBODY will buy one except the ultra rich.

    and they won't buy it because it looks like a Toyota Avalon.

    The SUV looks nice...but I'm sure it's going to be >$100k.

    I was going to make a disparaging comment about resell values of Lucid, but I have NO room to talk.

    damn....

    Plaid is what ~$100k now?

    not gonna pay damn near triple for marginal performance increase & no whoopie cushions.

    By that logic a Plaid is 3x the price of a Corolla. You should get a Corolla instead.

    you are marginalizing the performance aspect & overlooking the main comparison.

    these 2 cars are similar in performance & amenities.

    the corolla is...well...a corolla.

    corolla = m3 sorta.
    highlander = my sorta

    If you get it a base color, such as stealth
    Grey and leave the wheels, interior color etc alone. The Plaid in itself:

    Ew. That's a huge no from me unless you can 100% opt out of it and block it from your vehicle.

    This is ponderous to me.

    big 3 make money on ICE

    big 3 lose money on EV

    How does this play out?

    I learned something today!!

    I did not know the big 3 was selling EV's in china to offset ICE in USA.

    my oh my.

    what a tangled web we weave....

    it's all one big joke. and we - the hard working folk - will suffer the decisions of fools.

    That $4035 in Tesla maintenance...that's gotta all be tires, no?
    This ancient-tech dinosaur of a truck that I own outright and will last forever is looking better and better by the day.
    But I'm sure they've got their sights set on making it harder to buy gasoline in the near future.
