To be fair, what you’ve quoted from Reddit is just another person who shares your prediction, not an actual datum of it coming true. And, this “incentive” being at the dealer’s discretion is no different than a dealer holdback, or FPA, both of which also show on a Vincent - or a markup over...

Agree, and I think this is all that would be required for Ram to deliver a “paradigm” shift in pickup truck EVs. I imagine something like either or both of the following: (1) Road Trip Extension: before a significant road trip, I not only do charge to 100% I also put in [10] gallons of...

same, plus to add: the F150 platform’s back seat legroom is huge, and an under-appreciated gem for those of us with multiple car seats/children as a big guy, I can put the driver’s seat where I want it, and the kid’s carseats still aren’t touching the back of my chair, by many inches. not to...

car and driver found the AT to cause a 30% range reduction in a 75mph test … if that sways your thinking

I’d add that the button locations and sensitivities are such that I’m constantly turning on the rear defroster, etc., if when I go to turn up the volume my finger happens to whatsoever drag the screen generally agree this entire “zone” of the controls is poorly thought out at best, and...

guess it’s a “hybrid” in some sort if sense, but of course it’s not a “hybrid” of the sort we’ve become accustomed to thinking of when we think of”hybrid” vehicles. I think more the jargon is a “range-extender,” like on the BMWi3, which includes a gasoline engine only used to charge the...

agree, but admit my interest is raised by these suggestions of a “backup” gas engine being included as an emergency range-extender for pickup purposes, and transition-adoption purposes, I wonder if the first to offer this sort of feature won’t have decent success!

this isn’t the full picture Tesla prioritizes regions of the globe (CT not going outside US anytime soon, despite int’l reservations taken), as well as regions of the country (eg not shipping to regions until sufficient regional orders for shipping), and otherwise also at times appears to...

yeah, that’s where the phraseology gets…strange to my ear maybe I’m projecting, but the turns of phrase like ”way more profit” starts to sound value-based, rather than reporting an example of what I mean is: you know what types of companies also make “way more profit” than they used to...

i understand the miscommunication you’re describing, and perhaps it in part emanates from this seemingly mixed message that can be interpreted(misinterpreted!) from the “making way more profit” but that’s mixed in here. That is, there at times begins to be the appearance of suggesting not merely...

really? 100lbs? That’s the equivalent of 2 toddlers in the truck. as with towing, it seems pretty well established that weight is almost irrelevant compared to resulting drag and similar inefficiencies Car & Driver tested at 75moh a Rivian with stock street tires vs a Rivian with stock AT...

he meant the image from their prior post

Tesla doesn’t do it this way, Ford doesn’t, and - while I’m less familiar - I don’t believe Rivian does, either. givin the apparent consistency, is there a good reason.

this is as good a summary as I’ve seen there’s another thread around here where someone posted the memo sent by Ford to dealers

understand the frustration, and sorry for it the Ford build page has for a long time had a zappy-ride populated field that by no stretch has ever been reliable except by accident; for example when I bought my truck it still advertised a state incentive known to be unobtainable. If anything, I...

a member here just had a dealer pay them $20K over MSRP to re-purchase the vehicle My dealer in ATX has a live auction for used vehicles running all day, can be watched from showroom - while I was picking up my Lightning, a Platinum auctioned to a dealer for $130K eBay has plenty of sold...

though for some it could be worth the resulting net $72,500? $7,500 more than the MY22 version, but not as bad as $15,000 more? *sad trombone*

Is it not removable?
