Yea, but your argument is that it is price for EVs, but gasoline cars don't seem to follow the same logic. That is where you lose me. Average Transaction Price was like $47k for last month (google...

So you found a list where two cars are below $20k to drive off if you can actually find ones with no options. That just helps me proves my point. Nissan Versa sold 24,807 cars in 2023. By your logic...

Google the Tesla thing, it's real. 10.7% unsold last quarter 45,000 vehicles in inventory. 2023 average was only 2% over production for the entire year. That is not me speculating, those are facts. ...

In time? Dude, time is now! 2028 CAFE makes EV sales a mandate - 1/3 of sales or over 5 million EVs. That is only four years away. I agree that in time EVs might grow in popularity. But right now,...

You can play word games all you want. CAFE is a law. And to meet it, 1/3 of sales per manufacturer are EV by 2028 and 2/3 by 2032. What happens when people don't buy a million more EVs per year? It...

I like the stock multi-layer steel exhaust gaskets. Last time I bought headers from kooks, their gasket was a solid piece of aluminum. Both will work, but everyone has their favorites.
