Not at all. I tend to have an obsessive compulsive personality so I concentrate on specifics, but I recognize that most people probably concentrate on generalities.

OK.

One needs to be careful with that. Yes the AGT with the 19 inch tires is rated 512 miles. But most do not achieve that range and others who have the 20 and 21 inch tires will get less range. Yes that is specified in the website, but some may just look at the advertising and then be disappointed...

I think your example of jaguars is a terrible example. I have always wanted to buy a Jaguar for the last 40+ years. I always decided against it since they were usually at the bottom of consumer reports on reliability. All my friends and relatives felt the same way. Yes there are people who will...

I didn't say the sky is falling. I have said I am pessimistic over the short term, but it is possible if Lucid starts making some changes for it to turn around. That means putting the car in every major mall so people will see it every time they go there(that's what Tesla did when they started...

I suspect it will squeeze the Saudi's

I agree with your statement. Getting more cars on the road without outstanding quality control and aftermarket service will just lead to more bad mouthing of the brand and be the swan song for the brand long term. They need better marketing along with topnotch QC and service. HMP has the...

I remember when posters on this board said the stock looked tempting at 10, then at 6, then at 4, 3, 2 etc. Maybe it is at this low point, but I don't see any near term catalyst to move the stock up, other than some traders taking a risk because they believe the stock is oversold which it may be...

I agree. Another time bomb waiting to happen, is what do owners do when their warranty expires and they live hundreds of miles from the nearest service center. I highly doubt any owner will be willing to pay thousands of dollars just for transportation costs both ways just to get their car...

Cars on the road is fine, if people will buy the car. That is not the case here in Oregon. I almost never see another Lucid. However, having Lucid at all the car shows and having a Lucid at all the major malls makes so much more sense, as people will be exposed to the car every time they go into...

If you don't want to do anything fancy like put options, selling call options on the stocks you presently own is a good way to pick up some extra money, if you think the market may go down in the near future. You can't lose selling a covered call option. You always get to keep the premium. The...

If you are that sure that the US is in for a recession or worse, then follow up your outlook by buying put options on the stocks you own for downside protection or you can short other auto stocks that you seem to be certain will decline in price. There are always ways to make money in both bull...

If they do a mass market offering of the mid sized sedan and it is rushed so that it has glitches and problems, then word will get around and sales will sputter. In order to succeed, they have to have outstanding service and reliability. Not everybody is willing to put up with problems...

My previous Panamera Turbo did not have that extra $700 added on when I bought it. My car's registration expires in April and my wife's 6 months later.. Will find out whether the extra fee is added on when it's time to renew. Not optimistic as Oregon has been trying to extract every dollar it...

If you look at the bottom right of page you will see charge of $702.50 for my Lucid AGT. Similar charge incurred when I bought my wife's BMW i-4M50. Again no sales tax in Oregon.

There is no sales tax in Oregon. Below is payment for buying an EV auto. Payment Receipt Confirmation Your payment was successfully processed. You may print this receipt page for your records by selecting Print. Transaction Summary DescriptionOrder IDAmount Oregon Department of...

Yes, I understand that the $700 registration fee is supposed to make up for the lack of gas tax revenue, but an increased EV title fee that is going to triple and an additional fee for mileage driven actually makes it more expensive to own than a comparable ICE car. This defeats the whole...

Actually, some of the states themselves are also disincentivizing EV purchases. I live in a very blue state(Oregon). You would think that they would be promoting EV's for cleaner air, etc. Instead the registration fees are an extra $700 per car for each EV (we own 2)each time the registration...

As I said before on this forum, my wife's BMW i-4M50 has been gold. Almost 3 years old and she has never had to bring in into the dealership for anything. Everything works perfectly. Stating that "no more from non-EV only makers" doesn't necessarily mean that "only EV" makers make a better EV. I...

As some of you may remember, 3 years ago I posted on this forum that I bought 25,000 shares of LCID at 22, I sold 250 call options and it got called netting me a 12 point gain and +$300,000 profit. Paid a little less than 1/2 in taxes and bought an AGT with the rest. I initially kicked myself...
