Man I seen a tesla pull up the other day, passenger door opens, girl gets out and walks away. Nobody else was in the car. Was I just not seeing the other person or they can do that?

Ford has been like 12$ a share for like 5 years, i feel like its worth more than that...

I wonder if goverment handouts are going to send this stock flying?

They are announcing a new EV truck tomorrow, interested anyone?

Or is ford a lame duck?

Ford is an enormous economic power house. They are moving with the times. Change or die. Thats is interesting. Less weight = more power. Im all for it. 100% torque at 0 rpm is game changing. The mach-e is a bad bitch.

It would need to be like a car truck not a real truck. Batteries can't run a real truck yet or possibly ever. I don't think you guys realize the power and longevity a gasoline or diesel engine offers.

This man has no testicles.

how dare you praise a kitchen appliance and not be joking. It can do 0-200 in 1 second for all I care. Cart carrying the horse mentality, its so strange and weird. Truly a modern man with his head fully inserted up his own rear.

Same people that get off on Stadia, the next gen console or anything mobile. You make me sick and I think you a disgrace. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

I've had a Mazda 3 hatchback the year they got released.
Drives well but broke down very fast but this may be due to it being my first car.

I then bought a toyota rav4 and that was a mistake.
That shit is unkillable but it drives like shit and reacts even worse but I still think toyota is great. All these million kilometers camry out there.

And then I bought a mini cooper S john cooper work and this is my car, still.
6 speeds. 300 horsepower on a car that has the wheels in the corners of the car so it handle like a go kart, is very fast and great for the city.

Comfortable but I don't think this is a very good car.
It's breaking down randomly.
It's a fun car though but only if you plan on being in the city a lot.

I'm not in the market for a car but I think if I had to buy one, i'd go for a volvo and if price was of no concern, I'd go for a Bentley. (that night sky interior is siiiiiiiiick!)

P.S: I would like a peugeot, great cars but not for the northern climate I fear.

Nothing screams I love freedom, I AM A RIGHT WINGER! like being physically sick from what other people do with their freedom and disgrace them because of their choices.

Because of computers a modern vehicle is about as bland as can be. A mode for every occasion, removing the need of any real cars for a real purpose (other than pure track use). The cool factor of a special edition or some new super charger technology (going back to drag racing) is replaced by a battery you don't touch nor do you tamper with the motors. How interesting is that? literally no hassle at all. Just get in and go!..

E-Vehicles are the iPhone of the computer world.

Are desktops and old push-rod V8's a bunch of dinosaurs in the past? Sure they are! but you will never ever be as cool as any one of them. You are a womans device. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

It's my freedom to say so, the freedom you only have because we are here (you don't really have it, you ride the coat tails). The people you make fun of. It doesn't come from you, you big ugly, dumb fat stupid troll of a fake maple leaf [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Next you are going to tell me soldiers dies for human rights.

Actually, our rights are born when we use them and they die when we stop defending them.

I know you got nothing wrong on you, and you can show the cops your bag: it has nothing in it but I don't have to, it's illegal.


At any rate, your car analogy is great but like, it applies to everything.
Did you build your house?
Boring.
Did you build your electronics like a real man back in the day?
Fucking... boring.

Did you just order foo instead of making it like a grown adult? wow that is very boring.


Cars don't really serve a purpose other than transportation.
There is a severe trend in American automaker losing part of the pie.
Something about either you think you are the best, or you innovate.
