Chevy Forced To Extend Shutdown Of Bolt Plant After Realizing That Literally No One Wants A Bolt

[Wingnut]

I have severe range anxiety so you'll never catch me dead in a BEV.  I might consider a PHEV at some time in the future.

Not when it's shit, overpriced and subsidized by my tax dollars.  I'll buy the best quality that I can afford.  If that means I'm buying something from Korea or Mexico - so be it.

I have 5 GM and a Dodge on the pavement. But the youngest is old enough to vote. No road salt here, so vehicles last a long time if you don't beat them up.

Wow. I was just at the Maserati dealer two weeks ago looking for a business lease on a Ghibli. Great car, but the place was a ghost town and their lease deals suck. Who the hell still does closed end deals?

Did you peek at the new midsized SUV, called Stelvio?

With 280 hp turbo 4 cyl. it is under $50k, and with 500+ hp turbo v6 is is $77k.

That category, small-mid sized SUV/crossover/wagon is the hottest category around here.

My wife observed that all the luxury brands are showing them, Bentley, Jag. etc. And more and more size options.

Of course the American brands are following.

The only SUV they had was a Levante. It was cool, but didn't do anything for me. I got a 90 Suburban if I feel like driving a truck. My buddy just bought a Porsche Macon though that runs like a raped date. Fun SUV.

Not calling you green. Just a degenerate bike rider who would love an excuse to peddle the rest of the trip after the batteries drained.

Well, I never!  The only thing I'll drain is scotch, whisky, vodka...

Why am I not surprised that, of all the folks on this board, you'd be the least inclined to buy things made by the fellow members of your community?   

There is so much about you that makes my skin crawl.

You crack me up.

Well thank you for that concise political commentary, but I think I'd rather delve into something a little less personal for the posters here at TBR.  How would you describe your testicles?
