    What’s the paint issues? I was told to get them so you don’t get paint issues.

    Model Y folks show like the rear passenger door with like sandblasted paint

    I believe many of them can still trap dirt. If you decide, make sure they are trimmed appropriately so they arent scarping over bumps and such. I would periodically inspect them for trapped debris and fitment.

    uh oh...we kinda called this a few days ago.

    either Gov doubles down & starts another round of Solyndra handouts - or this crap goes away.

    you know where my money is.

    BP Exec Describes US Offshore Wind Industry As "Fundamentally Broken"
    It's not just Orsted that just realized the Green revolution is really deep red when it comes to shareholder value.

    Speaking at the FT Energy Transition summit on Wednesday, a clean energy executive at supermajor BP said that the U.S. offshore wind industry is “fundamentally broken” and needs a reset. But the regulatory and permitting environment for the industry can be fixed, Anja-Isabel Dotzenrath, head of Gas and Low Carbon Energy at BP, said on the conference, as carried by Reuters.

    all this crap going south in such close proximity to each other is ponderous.

    I believe that smell I smell is a bailout.

    Big 3 EV's will be folded into it.

    hide & wait.

    I heard a piece yesterday, I think about this one, that due to high interest rates a lot of the projects that were planned pre-2020 are now falling off.

    Yeah it’s really next level. My wife isn’t used to one pedal dive yet. But I like the phone as key just get in and go. Or just get out. 4/5 times my wife keeps saying “turn the car off”

    Yup. Looks alone it would be strong competition for the Teslas if it were similarly priced. It's not even in the same ballpark, though.

    Yup. Couple the loss of those subsidies for EVs with the war on fossil fuels and you'll see not only the price of the EV go up, but your basic electric bill is going to skyrocket.
