@3:19 for the money shot. I can’t wait to get a fully electric vehicle - I only have a 100k on my Pious, so it’s not upgrade time, yet.

Inside that 78 year old man beats the heart of a teenager who just got his hands on his first set of wheels. I married a guy like that. 8-)

Not like Biden's predecessor who got in a semi and fire truck pretend driving it and blowing the horn while mugging for the camera like an idiot.

I'd bet real money that if Biden climbed up into a rig, he'd start the damn thing and take off.

For some reason, I admire that kind of gung ho/can do mentality. I think it's the mentality that gets things done.

Biden accelerated faster than our currency inflated over the last few months.

There's a video of a Tesla SUV Model X beating an Alpha Romeo 4c in a drag race. Oh, and the Tesla is towing another Alpha Romeo 4c while racing.

Electric motors have massive amounts of torque compared to internal combustion engines. For a pickup truck that is an actual working vehicle, torque is what you need to carry a load and not slow down. The big push is in battery technology. As energy storage density increases and the per unit manufacturing costs decrease, I would think that fleet vehicle operators would think long and hard about the Total Cost of Ownership with respect to EVs.

I bought my daughter a new Tesla for her 17th Bday last month. She got the Model 3 and my wife just ordered a Model Y which is set to be delivered in September. I requested a tri-motor cyber truck back in 2019 but production on that has been delayed till 2022. From here on out it will be 100% electric cars for us.

Now ask how many of these professional message board posters would actually get in a car driven by Joe Biden.

Same for me. My wife’s folks both drive model 3s and I’ve been really impressed with them. I’ve got an old van that’s close to retirement, but I’m hoping to stretch it another couple years to have a selection of EVs to replace it with. Like Doc, I’ve got a Prius that has lots of miles left.
