I don't know her, but good for her. NPR is a valuable resource, but we should also do better in demanding their reporting quality to improve. They've been doing a lot of sanewashing, too.
I just want an electric car :( but the Tesla's are too expensive.
I might end up buying Chinese cars
We bought a chevy bolt and equinox. You can pick up a used bolt these days for around $10k. Equinoxes are as low as $35k before incentives...
domestically you can get a base 2025 chevy ev blazer for around $27k while the ev rebate lasts. 300+ mile range with decent fast charging. I was really looking forward to getting one in the next 2-3 years but then dondi mcshytegibbon got elected and is killing not just the ev tax credit but the grant money to build out a dc fast charging infrastructure too. I might have to look at the plugin hybrid market instead when I really want to go fully electric.
There are so many companies now dumping private capital into EV fast charging. IONNA alone is expected to build out 30,000 DC fast charging stations over the next 5 years. Its funded by basically all the major automakers in N America (except Toyota of course).
Except then you have a Chevy.
Their EVs are pretty solid, I've been driving one for 5 years and its been great.
Way cheaper if you buy a used one too
Where I'm from it's stupid to make your primary vehicle 2WD. Too bad.
Don’t sell it to someone who will die in a fiery accident, just throw it into a volcano
If you're buying a Tesla in 2025 it's a skill issue.
I always liked her, now I know why.
Swasticar drivers = Nazis.
I'm very glad I changed my mind about putting down a $3K(USD) deposit on the yet to be made 3 series.
Fuck Musk the Nazi.
And delete xitter. Might want to think about getting off Instagram, too. Cuckerberg is no better.
Cuckerberg is a new one. I call him fuckerberg.
I've hated him for 10 years now. If it weren't for their VR headsets I would delete it entirely.
Word. I donated to my local NPR stations. Will do so again.
Fuck musk. Fuck trump. Fuck the republican traitor filth.
I wouldn't want a Tesla even if someone gave me one for free.
I wouldn't get a tesla at any price because I'm now stuck in a tesla ecosystem just like apple users are by and large stuck in the apple ecosystem.
It’s sad because there are a lot of good people who work at Tesla. Elon is going to end up putting them all out of work at this rate.
There's 9 people sitting at a table, a nazi joins them. Now there's 10 nazis at the table.
That they're "good people" might have been true. But if when the situation changes, and you don't act, then you're complicit. Good people would have quit, even at a loss.
Elon's putting a lot more people than that out of work.
Starlink terminals next...
If it makes you happy...
Yeah, but what will impress Jodie Foster?
I mean Hinckley is out of jail now maybe he could try and win her affections again?
I don't think the answer is safe to say
