Riiiiight. You keep telling yourself that. And the topic os being discussed right above you there. Try to keep up.
-
Or better yet Dorothy, just click your heels three times and take yourself to place where I might actually give a damn. You were perfectly fine making it about me yesterday, insulting me, and trying to discount everything I (and others said) because it did not jive with your agenda (and that's exactly what it was) and now that reality has set in, you want to act like you have some moral high ground here? Seriously LMFAO here over that one. You don't get to just sweep all of that under a rug and act like it didn't happen because it did. So, to use one your more colorful lines, "Man the EFF up" and admit that you were just acting a like dick yesterday by trying to make this about me. Until then, refer to my posts above, i.e. You don't get to tell me what to do ever, mmmkay? So, I asked this yesterday and it got lost in the shuffle of insults and pettiness, so I'll follow up here. Any projections on sales for the Bolt @Drew Dowdell? Surely GM has a target in mind and I'm curious as to what they think is a realistic number for the Bolt.
-
Comments like "Man the EFF up dork" are what get threads closed, not anything I have said just now. You'd do well to understand the difference and stop telling me what to do.
-
Let me say this for you one more time. You don't get to tell me what to focus on...ever. Got it?
-
You mostly certainly did discount real world examples and you, of all people, don't get to tell me what to focus on. Really? So I'm the one telling you to "man the eff up" and calling you a "dork" because I present facts that don't jive with you? No. That is all you because you got your panties in a damn knot over it, hence your colorful responses. You have a strange sense of revisionist history but the truth was clearly laid out by you as evidenced by your little diatribes against me while having the nerve to tell me not to focus on people. And I quote, "Now man the efff up dork, and admit GM trails Ford by a significant margin." Yeah you weren't trying to make that about me at all (obvious sarcasm btw).

The Eco Boost reference was meant as a joke and not to be taken literally. I have a coworker with a FX4 model (a 2014 mind you) and he raves about the truck. He really seems to dig it and it is a sharp looking ride.
-
I was merely using eco-boost as an example of the absurdity that real world usage doesn't matter according to a certain user here. I agree with you about Eco Boost, all joking aside.
-
But he has science and and paper stats on his side and real world experience doesn't matter unless we are saying that the Eco-Boost doesn't deliver on real world MPGs.
-
Exactly but some people have to make a big deal over nothing in order to push their various agendas.
-
And are you going to get your panties in a know if I don't "man the eff up"? Seriously. My twelve year old niece posts with more maturity than you, supposed 51 year old adult "man".
-
You realized wrong as always (I'm still waiting on proof of this long held belief of yours that I'm a GM fan being that I've never owned even one). I have said nothing because you mean nothing. I'll leave you be so that you can put that chain back on since it flew off from all that backpedaling you just did. Now again, back to the Bolt (and away from the usual meaningless insults from the peanut gallery)...
-
As always, thanks for your support @FordCosworth. I always know that I can count on you. Now, about the actual subject... Any projections on how many Bolts GM expects to sell @Drew Dowdell?
-
Never, not once have I said that GM outsells Ford on hybrids. Not once. That's a scenario you created to paint Ford as superior. Take your condescending BS and stick it back in the deck before you hurt yourself. Good thing I'm not a Toyota employee or you would not have jack $h! to say about hybrid sales. Just go pedal yourself.
-
Don't change the rules to suit your weak argument. I am comparing a PHEV Chevy to two Ford PHEV, of which the Fusion is not a part of (hence the factual link provided for your education). Ask yourself this. Why in the world would anyone compare sales of a PHEV with a hybrid? Hell, if you want to go that route, then Prius spanks all of them. Try and keep up yourself before calling me a dork. And the link your buddy provided is about the Bolt, not the Teslas I was talking about. Again, try and keep up here before claiming a superiority that doesn't exist.
-
Even the Spark EV has an almost four fold advantage over the Focus EV (just over 3,000 to 800 respectively).
-
They were. Those numbers were pulled from Fords own numbers. Thanks for your concern though. Really? The Fusion Energi has sold just over 14,000 for year, putting it squarely behind the Volt. In fact you'd have to combine sales of the Fusion and the C-Max Energi to get a few hundreds above the one Volt for the year You're welcome in advance. http://insideevs.com/monthly-plug-in-sales-scorecard/

Bentley News: Bentley Plans On Growing The Bentayga Lineup
surreal1272 replied to William Maley's topic in Bentley
So more hideous looking overpriced CUVs? Good grief these people need to stop drinking the bong water. -
Past is past. Welcome to the present. Fact is the Volt outsells any single Ford PHEV right now. Having a bunch of half ass EV efforts means precisely dick. Oh continue speaking BS like you've been doing the last few days. It's certainly gotten you this far.
-
Speaking of PHEVs. 2016 YTD sales Chevrolet Volt-21k (all of which are making a profit unlike the first gen Volt) Ford C Max (hybrid and PHEV)-17k
-
76 mile range Focus EV-$30K for a stripper model 238 mile range Bolt-$37K but very well equipped and three times the range. Yeah GM sure has some catching up to do there. So they'll be minimum three years late to the real range EV party. Good for them.
-
And if you look at my earlier post you will see that I mentioned that winters are harsher. Good grief. Dont worry. Ford will join the party soon enough.
-
Good for you. The difference here is (and the reason why I brought it up in the first place) is that seeing them around town in the Phoenix heat encouraged me to ask some of those owners (at the many charging stations around here although one was a friend of my boss) about their experiences with their Teslas. Understand the context now or is being a baby about it easier for you because of who said it?
-
I am looking forward to some real world tests and experiences on the Bolt. While it is still a niche car, it could be a potential game changer for GM.
-
Its called real world ownership experiences as opposed to useless paper stats and maybe you should refer to the link above regarding other owners experiences. Which would one believe more? Paper stats or real world ownership experience? Hmmmm. It doesn't take an engineer to figure that one out but I'm not here to convince you of a damn thing anymore so take that for what it's worth. What the hell do I know though. I just happen to live in the hottest part of the country and see these things riding around everyday.
