Can't Compete with This

[TIMINATOR]

I promise I won't be corrupted, at least absolutely. I'm not a biden, clinton, Pelosi or obama....
Car is close! Gotta do the Axis, Alky Controls, install the dual 3" exhaust, 70 mm T body and upper, rear seat brace, scanmaster, and waiting for my B.O. drag radials...
Still need 15x8" wheels to match my GNX ones. Enky used to make something close. Don't know if they make or made the metric g body bolt pattern. Nobody has called back yet.

Jeep's CEO doesn't think there are enough raw materials on earth to meet electric-car demand

 

[TIMINATOR]

Did he mention if that demand was with, or without federal subsidies and mandates?
Electrics have been tried without success for over 100 years (Baker, for one) but they all failed. Government subsidies and mandates are the only difference this time.

(Baker, for one)

My grandfather had one!
I was too young to have seen it, but the garage was still wired for the charger.

How long did he have the Baker?

The latest increase takes the base model's price to $59,974, nearly 50% higher than when the truck was launched last year.

The kids in the lithium mines go on strike for more cookies?

How long did he have the Baker?

Not sure. He and my great grandfather may have had the car. However, that was gone before I came along in 1939.
His house was built in 1925, and the garage wired for the Baker.
Bakers were made from 1899 to 1914.
So, I'm assuming he had the car when he built the house.
He passed in 1958 @ 85 yrs old. 1873 - 1958.

He was witness to and a participant in some epic historical changes in this great country!

Tesla slashes Model X prices in Canada for second time this year

A $7,000 price cut early March, plus one mid-January, means the electric crossover is now $21,000 cheaper than it was at the start of 2023

Yeah!

From what I gather, Marty is the kid here!

I got a line on another white Turbo Coupe! Since I got a cool plate on this one, how about:
WYTE PWR

Mebbie if my last name was White, but then again I might come out of a store and find it on fire!

My female neighbor has a plate on her white 300Z that says WHTE GRL.

She claims she's never gotten any shit for it.

One of my customers is a gynecologist, he had "SMEGMA" on his Porche plate for over 3 years before they gave him 10 days to surrender it!
I wonder if someone sniffed it?

Maybe just “BOOOO”?
Or “CASPER”?
