Fisker Ocean..World's coolest taxi?

[martinjlm]

Spent a few days in Manhattan recently. Saw one other Lucid. Saw at least 8 Fisker Oceans. At some point I realized that they all had "T#####C" license plates. That's the format for taxi license plates in NYC. When we wound up behind one while riding in an Uber my family and I were discussing it. Our Uber driver said that a company (Margolis?) bought up a lot of Fisker Oceans for as little as $9,000 per car. All the good ones are on the street as taxis. The more questionable ones are stockpiled and harvested for parts to keep the rest of the fleet rolling.

Right, they're the company who leases the T&LC vehicles to the drivers. They bought the 2,400 remaining ones for $9k each plus tons of repair parts
