What I was really going to say ... Last call for LaCrosse ... what that really means is last day for LaCrosse. Yesterday, I sold my car, for which doing research on it and clicking on the links brought me to C&G. (Lucky you!) I handle change fairly well, especially while traveling, but I don't handle moving on to another car all that well. I usually deliberate a lot on choosing a car because they are big ticket items and, when I have bought - or was given - one I liked, I have taken excellent care of it and don't want to part with it. I was in a funk when I came home yesterday, but, eventually, I was also relieved and am dealing with it better today. This is the last photo I've taken of the car. I had cleaned it thoroughly and, with the lighting, the photo doesn't show the sheen that's still in the metallic paint and the tidiness of the interior. It was taken yesterday.

Technically Ford made an Electric Focus... because California.

And that is why you fail. I am not a “brand nut jobber”. That’s just you sensationalizing as always because of your clear bias AGAINST some brands. You confuse my explanations of Toyota with fandom and that’s why I am quite honestly tired of the endless horse$h! you keep peddling over it. Get over it already and don’t drop my name like that when you clearly have had no clue WTF you are about. It’s that simple. (I wasn’t going to respond but that “brand nut jobber” BS was not going to stand when I know it’s a 100% lie) Quite frankly, this is where you stand with me and that’s the end of it.

PSS: little adjustements NEED to be made. I aint THE boss. I am A boss. Not THE Boss. HUGE reality check I just faced today. Im humbled and THAT is a GOOD thing!!!

Explain this. This is literally the first time I've read this.

Rescue of damaged Navigator, it got stuck, then a flood came...

Feel good story for today...

Ford breaks out their EV financials, Ford themselves say their EV's will lose $4.5 billion dollars this year. (or $1.125 billion per quarter) Ford has sold 46,671 EV's through Q3 at a loss of $3.375 Billion, which is actually $72,314 dollars lost per car sold. Tesla meanwhile making billions in profits on EVs:

There is nothing to explain as he is lying through his teeth when he says that... He knows that the Mach-E is built on a pure bespoke EV platform. This also a lie... However... Tesla's production efficiency is non-existent. Elon lies a lot. Therefore... Tesla's price cuts and Tesla is bleeding money meaning that the measley $1 250 rebate of the Model 3 and the $2000 rebate of the Model Y are monies that interfere with the Model 3s and Model Ys profits meaning small rebates of vehicles that have sold as much as they have and produced as much as they have and the production lines of Tesla are not up to legacy automobile manufacturer's srandards. Meaning if FoMoCo is losing $60 000 on each Mach-E sold, then Tesla ALSO is losing money on each Model 3 and Model Y sold. ESPECIALLY on rebate. Meaning Tesla cannot sustain rebates... The thing is...Elon started a price war Tesla cant afford. His mouth is writing checks his ass cant cash... But its nice to find faults with GM or Ford or anybody else but hypocritically defend Tesla. Sounds like a Toyota argument come to think of it. @surreal1272 Hope your hip surgery went well, buddy, even thought I would have NEVER have thought to paint you as a brand nut jobber! But...it is Toyota you defend, so it makes sense. Apple, Toyota and Tesla...

Kia EV9 concept debuted in November 2021. Not yet at dealers. And the Mach-E is bad product built on an ICE platform, they rushed it because Tesla was so fast on the rise. Model Y outsells the Mach-E like 20-1 worldwide so I wouldn't call the Mach-E a success story, especially since Ford loses $60,000 on each one they sell. Also Kia EV6 US sales through Q3 are 14,798, down from 15.7% from last year. Tesla Model Y US sales are 284,000. If Kia is so good, why are they getting outscored 284-14? The facts are Tesla is mopping the floor with these OEM's and I don't see how any OEM outside of BMW and Mercedes makes an easy transition to EV's because the EV's are too high priced and too low volume compared to their ICE counterparts. And even then, I don't think it will be all that easy for Mercedes or BMW, but they are lucky that Tesla isn't coming for them, Tesla is coming for the mass market.

LOL you proved the article right. By you saying the article was sensationalist journalism you are proving their sensationalist view of what and how people ignore Toyota's problems. Thanx for the laugh. PS: Love that middle finger photo of the man in black. Ive used it a couple of times myself. Thanx for the regifting.
