Good luck the rest of the way and better learn how to code

They endorse the party of EV that are tanking the American manufacturers, getting rid of cheap gas, and responsible for rising interest rates that tank sales

    UAW is insane. Needs to end. GM has a workforce equal to the current workforce that are producing the cars but this workforece sits at home and collects the same paycheck as those working. Was that way a few years back doubtful it changed.

    we wonder why cars are so expensive...

    I think it’s funny how Honda and Toyota have all but ignored production of EV’s. They know it’s not the future.

    Just like the rest of the US the leadership doesn't align with the rest.

    They are just paying and collecting bribes.

    I'd bet the voting split within the union is better than 60/40 Trump.

    At Ford, what do you guess the percentage of the UAW that owns an electric Ford 150?

    Moar Joe fighting for the American working Man by vetoing a bipartisan bill that would have reversed his decision to use Chinese parts in charging stations.

    Hybrid rech make sense for 90% of cars. Going full EV, like GM is hell bent on doing, does not. Until you add in politics, of course.

    You seem confused

    You're voting again for a pedophile

    And the party you vote for is actually in favor of pedo rights

    I disagree. You’re still on the hook for gas but you also run the risk of battery failure. Worst of both worlds IMO.

    If there were mass examples of battery failures in hybrids, I would agree. They're also typically warrantied for 100k or more miles. Hybrid vehicles are a pretty mature technology at this point.

    No problem with hybrids if you want to buy one. My problem is the big federal tax credit for plug-in hybrids. If it needs a federal credit, it's an inferior vehicle.

    Fair enough I guess. Still don’t want it on a 2 seater sports car due to the added weight. I’ll have a Supra.

    There are definitely cars that the tech needs to stay out of. The 10% would be sports cars / muscle cars.

    Those batteries are about $8,000. I looked at some Priuses, but if the battery isn't very new, no way in hell.

    So not as bad as a Tesla, but still pretty pricey. That’s about what I would have guessed.

    On the other hand, there are hybrid supercars and if someone can afford it those are pretty cool. I think it was Koenigsegg that has one with a regular motor and then 4 individual electric motors that provide power to each wheel individually. The electric motors adjust the wheel spin using the computer to provide optimal grip on a race track, and that’s cool as hell.

    Hybrids give people a chance to feel good while having a vehicle that actually works because it has gas in it


    All good with me but they get banned in 2033 too
