If you keep honking the horn maybe that be an incentive for them to get the car on a hauler and out of the lot.

Bill writers are likely organizations that are anagrams of MG, DORF, and EUA

The Equinox, Blazer, Cybertruck and Silverado are not being sold yet though. Also I’m not sure if anyone knows for sure yet which current models meet the % requirements for battery raw materials sourcing, and battery assemble. The bigger thing that few people are talking about is the fact that...

Where do you get the info on how these cars are classified? Do you know if this is an official EPA classification or something else? It seems to me there could be a lot of grey area. In the old days an “SUV” was essentially a body-on-frame pickup with enclosed rear to provide more passenger...

Rivian has a lot more money in the bank but have been going through it way too fast. It does seem like they got a little ahead of themselves expanding. Lucid has to be more than 4,000 now. They were 3,900 end of 2021- a time when they only delivered 125 cars in a quarter and averaged 3 cars...

This is a new bill that is fresh.

Expectation is this will be signed into law before end of year and apply beginning 2023. Of course this will all be derailed if any other dems have issues with provisions in the bill (Sinema?)

They are working on a smaller car so this will certainly give them a price target to design too. SUV limit is $80k but I can’t see them bringing the Gravity below that.

I hope you are right (per my above post, given order confirmation has an “out” for the purchaser I’m not positive it qualifies). If it does I hope Lucid offers my Pure order confirmation before that point (not holding up much hope though).

Agree. Although what specifically happens at order confirmation? I understand that deposit becomes non-refundable but my read is that would not be a “binding contract to purchase” as the purchaser can still chose to cancel. In other words the agreement between Lucid and purchaser gives purchaser...

Actually VW is going to keep paying his CEO salary until 2025 (end of his contract term). Then he will probably get a big severance :) On a serious note I’m not sure this is a good thing for VWs transition to electric. It seemed like Diess was the one really taking EVs seriously.

No one has level 5 and I think realistically to get to that point (autonomous driving in any condition, anywhere) we would be talking timeframes of decades not years. Both due to the technical challenges and the approvals needed. Mercedes is hoping to have Level 3 on select freeways in CA and...

It’s an average of almost 350 miles per day. Just crazy for anything short of a long distance trucker.

Lucid is going to be under a lot of pressure by a lot of order holders to get their cars delivered by 12/31/22!!!

Expect an announcement of something “exciting” shortly before earnings release (last quarter it was announcement for GT Performance). Maybe this time it will be finalization of Touring specs and giving a hard date for beginning Touring deliveries.

The Twitter deal is explicitly not contingent on financing so killing finance sources would hurt him alone.

The June article seems to be reporting on a May interview. I’m not really sure why Elon is the CEO- it seems like he isn’t interested in being a CEO (or whatever he calls it). I think Tesla would not exist in any form close to what it is now were he never in the picture but he can still be...

Yea I’m not sure what the source is on the original post. He made comments in May that new factories are money furnaces until they ramp, on top of Covid shutdown, so maybe it was that. Even given that, they are printing money…just less of it in Q2 than Q1. I agree it’s just to keep media attention.

Looks like it will be after 8 years. I’m getting sick of micro subscriptions- Apple Music, Tidal, Netflix, Apple TV…etc. etc. etc. Once it gets into heated seats and nav I’m definitely looking into hacks. Note BMW tried charging monthly for CarPlay… around 2018 I think. There was so much...

Awww man- sorry. Washer fluid probably unlikely per your reasoning. Limited options for fluids in an EV so coolant, drive unit lubrication, or brake fluid would be main culprits. Does the driver’s display show any sort of brake error?
