The poster said they're in canada, but after traveling to different regions of the US, I've noticed that certain brands are more popular than others depending on where you are. On the west coast, it's all Tesla, Asian brands, BMW/Merc, and GM/Ford fullsize trucks and SUVs. In the midwest, everyone drives GM, Ford, and Stellantis vehicles almost exclusively. Here in Oregon I've only ever seen a handful of the Blazers and none of the EV versionn nor have I seen many Equinox both ICE or EV.
GM bet the hardest on EVs of any US manufacturer by far
Except Tesla and apart from them, the only remaining US manufacturer is Ford.
There aren't. Mercedes system only works in two states on freeways during the daytime on sunny days at speeds below 40MPH with clearly marked lines and no construction. There are so many qualifiers that it's basically useless outside of the attention grabbing headlines.
You talking about Oregon? The state legislature torpedoed the whole thing from the start and set it up for failure and as a lifelong resident, haven't noticed any uptick in the homelessness or drug issue since 2021 when the law was implemented. We had these problems of 'visible' homeless and drug use leading all the way back to the '08 recession and prior to that had meth cooks scattered all over in the boonies and everyone under 30 popping opioid pills in one form or another.
Wow, you win the "King edgelord" title for today. Congratulations!
It's not just Ohio. I'm on the west coast and the outage is happening here too.
I bet your friends on Facebook love when you make posts like this.
He did this with Biden too.

This is such a farce that I hear about all the time in the true crime podcasts I listen to. Prosecutors find themselves with a case that has no direct evidence pointing to their guy and 9 times out of 10 they pull a jailhouse informant out of the woodwork at the 11th hour claiming that their guy confessed (to a complete stranger) every little detail of their crime.
Meanwhile whenever someone who may have any sort of criminal record comes on the stand to defend the defendent, prosecutors claim they can't possibly be trustworthy because they have a record.
It's a clear "heads I win, tails you lose" situation in the courtroom most of the time.
Which can be a failure in itself when you spend 10 years and tens of billions building something "perfectly" only for it to break on its maiden voyage. That makes you wonder what was the point of doing everything so methodically when they could have taken a more efficient and iterative approach.
You're the person who corrects people to say "datum" and "the data are ..." aren't you?
What if he and his identical twin stole two identical cars at the same time?
What if it executes and install Windows 11 on your machine!?
Third-party ECUs are already wildly popular items (Holley Sniper and Terminator along with less popular third-party products).
Also, your car being an automatic isn't the difficult part of the conversion, having to fabricate the parts to adapt the drivetrain and battery are.
The 80s famously didn't have any muscle cars due to the gas shortages of the 1970s, new emissions standards, and burgeoning popularity of Japanese imports.
Because the prosecutor threw the case.
They have a $25B yearly budget.
What is SpaceX spending on R&D? From what I've read, Starship is estimated to cost $10B for development and their R&D budget for 2023 was $1.5B. If NASA was going to build something similar themselves, they've had nearly 70 years and hundreds of billions to accomplish it.
In reality their budget goes toward companies like Boeing, Northrop Grummon, and Lockheed Martin, who then pocket it and build substandard equipment. This is all public information so I can't imagine why people are downvoting other than being extremely emotional for some inexplicable reason.
