      I will have to agree that I will never go back to the complexity and overload of maintenance on ICE. Love my EV9 and once Genesis has their full size Luxury SUV out to compete with the EscaladeIQ, I can see me possibly retiring my Escalade for the Genesis. Of course, the wife would still love a truck, so once Kia gets the EV9 pickup out, might get that since we are very happy with the EV9 SUV. https://insideevs.com/news/744035/ev-owners-survey-global/ This is awesome what they did in making this Skyline R32 an EV. Would love to have an R32 or R33 EV. Nissan Made an Electric GT-R R32

      Happy Friday the 13th!  With that comes this joke: Q:  What did one lesbian vampire say to the other? A:  "Same time, next month?"

      Honda has been surprising with their Prologue as it is a huge seller here in the U.S. GM has come on strong, but I wonder if it will last without the Android Auto and AppleCar play support. I see Kia/Hyundai/Genesis taking a solid 2nd place for 2024 in EV sales. I think they could challenge Tesla next year even if they kill off the IRA which will require both House and Senate to approve and right now, this will affect a big chunk of RED states where EV and battery production is, so those house and senate members have already said that touching IRA is a bad thing. Going to be interesting. Germans are falling and Genesis as well as Cadillac has come on strong with Luxury. I honestly see no reason to spend the extra coin for the German brands over Cadillac or Genesis.

      I think Musk is so arrogant that he thinks Tesla doesn't need any tax breaks or government help (despite building his business on them) and that if all the tax credits go away, it will hurt the legacy OEM's selling EV's more than him.   But without that $7500 discount n Tesla's they look $10k more expensive than the ICE counterparts and once that value proposition is gone I think the sales grown crawls to a halt.  And Stellantis and Nissan may be a mess, but Toyota is a juggernaut, Hyundai/Kia have good momentum, GM is looking pretty strong again, Honda does their core products well and the Germans have the luxury market sewn up.  Tesla faces a lot of competitors who aren't just going to roll over.
