WOW, Musk is a Dictator wanna be narcissist who needs to go down to nothing. Musk calls to impeach judge whose order blocks DOGE from Treasury systems access As long as the lemming Board of Tesla just lets him abuse Tesla, I hope sales drop so bad that it starts costing Tesla to stay open. Till the Stockholders wake up and force the board to replace Musk and even the board themselves, Tesla can become a footnote in auto history, recognize the amazing engineers who brought about the motors, battery packs and controller boards in starting the next revolution of Auto's, but let legacy companies that are investing build better product and take over the EV market. Hopefully China BYD will continue to destroy Tesla in China, Let Tesla Fail and take all of Musks ill-gotten gains via stock with it.

Both a sexy beast and an outdated dinosaur.

I am so glad idiot 47 cut air traffic safety....we seem to have an epidemic of crashes.

At my PT today, I got filled in on all the drama by my PT guy who had a Superbowl Party at his home. Was funny to hear about the halftime show. Heard that Idiot47 left in the 3rd quarter and told Roger Goodell that the Superbowl was a joke and he was going to bounce. Roger responded that apparently the Chiefs did too.

30 and cloudy today, but dry. Took the Caddy for a spin, first drive since December. Went on the coast for seafood and a walk on the beach. Came home and got the Mustang out for a bit. Looking forward to Spring.

Pathetically sad that Trump is trying to kill anything that is to protect Americans against hate in the workplace. Trump Signs Order to Kill Federal Agency Investigating Tesla

https://www.reuters.com/world/americas/canada-could-face-long-term-political-challenges-with-us-says-trudeau-2025-02-07/ Prime Minister Justin Trudeau on Friday said U.S. President Donald Trump's talk about absorbing Canada "is a real thing" and is linked to the country's rich natural resources, a government source said. Trudeau made the remarks during a closed-door session of business and labor leaders on how best to respond to Trump's threats of tariffs on Canadian imports. His comments were first reported by the Toronto Star, which said they were mistakenly carried by a loudspeaker. Trump has repeatedly suggested Canada would be better off if it agreed to become the 51st U.S. state. "They're very aware of our resources, of what we have and they very much want to be able to benefit from those," the Star quoted Trudeau as saying. "But Mr. Trump has it in mind that one of the easiest ways of doing that is absorbing our country. And it is a real thing." The government source confirmed that the Star's account of the remarks was accurate.

LOL I must apologize because I linked up the wrong link for the autoshow. This link https://www.apa.ca/en/apa-at-the-2025-montreal-salon-de-lauto/ shows what were some of the highlights. Missing are Luc Poiriers, a Quebec billionnaire, legit billionnaire and a legit Quebecois real estate mogul, young too, with his 27 or 28 Ferraris. Also, the Corvette ZR1 was at the show too. Anyway, my points being 1. I went to to show with my son. Had a great time with him 2. The Montreal show was a success as Montrealers dont show any contempt for auto shows in the winter, Montrealers are not fully immersed in the latest greatest auto reveals over the internet and a good 'ole auto show is plenty enough to see, feel, touch and enjoy the cars that we will end up buying eventually while also looking and dreaming about what billionnaire money buys you. 3. Montreal is not Detroit. (Thank the lord) 4. Detroit is (or was) ALWAYS a premier reveal destination. Montreal was ALWAYS a so-so reveal destination. Plenty of new reveals did happen in Montreal over the years though. Mainly first reveals FOR the Canadian market. But having a Corvette C8 ZR1 at the show this year, Montreal was probably one of the FIRST cities to showcase it. It was on a pedastal showcase going round and round. Kinda feels good to showcase a car like that. But sadly though, not too many people were flocked to it. They didnt seem to know it was there. But there was an E-Ray there as well, and it was a floor show piece ready to be sold and it was open for people to sit in it and there was a HUUUUUGE line-up for it. Kids, teens, young adults, middle aged folk sprinkled with some old fogeys ALL lined-up to sit in it. I havent seen a Corvette with that kind of buzz surrounding it in a looooooong while. 5. My son and I sat in the Brightdrop. It is a well thought commercial EV. It is HUUUUGE. Wide and tall and long. GM EVs are well built inside and out. We sat in the Cadillac Escalade EV, Lyriq and Optiq, the Chevy Equinox and Blazer. We were not impressed with the interior of the Hummer though. It was cheap. The doors are flimsy. All other GM EVs are great inside and out. 6. The Dodge Charger EV is a STUNNER on the outside. The fit and finish on the outside is on par with everybody else. No surprise there as Chryco does make good cars. On the inside too, not too shabby with the quality and fit and finish. The interior design looks like what a modern muscle car should look like. But...I read and listened to many UNBIASED car reviews about the Charger EV and they all say that the EV part of the Charger is mediocre. Its a shame as its got the looks. Best looking of ALL EVs ever up until now for 2025. I even prefer the looks of the Charger to the Audi E Tron. And I LOOOVE the Audi E Tron. 7. Quebecois were all flocked to the EV offerings of ALL manufacturers present at the autoshow. Less at Tesla though. Nothing to do with Elon's antics as the autoshow was BEFORE his Nazi salute and all that shyte. Its because most Quebecois already KNOW Tesla. GM surprisingy had the most people at their EVs. Second was Hyndai/Kia. 8. There was some sort of Mercedes-AMG model there. Mercedes was next to Cadillac. The Blackwing sedans were there. Nobody acknowledging them as the Cadillac EVs had the attention further away from Mercedes. This specific AMG model was at the border of the Cadillac/Mercedes display. Nobody was at theat Mercedes either. I sat in it. It was phoquing tinny and plasticky. I got out of it in disgust and I didnt notice what model it was. I dont know HOW auto journalists complain about GM having cheap interiors...

Interesting On a happier note...

And this one didn't even really make the news. https://www.adn.com/alaska-news/rural-alaska/2025/02/06/rescue-crews-searching-for-overdue-bering-air-plane-with-10-aboard/ More https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c05l28jne2ro
