Rejoice! Making Automobiles Great Again

[Toddsterpatriot]

Well for you and other MAGA it can't come soon enough.

5 minutes?
5 months?
5 years?

Or never?

And the first one to do away with has to be that stupid auto stop feature.

I don't know. I ride with enough senior citizens that probably shouldn't be driving now that I rather like that feature. (I agree that you should be able to buy a car without it if you don't want it though.)

Now, if they could make them affordable again.

The more things cost the more tax revenue they generate. I wouldn’t hold your breath for lower prices on almost anything.

 

[Oddball]

The US will be stuck driving around in outdated fossil fuel vehicles while the rest of the developed world moves on without us.

MAGAs are just modern-day Luddites.

Then STFU go live there.

Do you own an EV?

 

[initforme]

How long after CAFE standards are eliminated until things look like that again?

3 minutes.

 

[Sunsettommy]

Let's all go back to the days before CAFE standards and those ridiculous clean air laws

Remember those good times!

Now you are being silly since the air pollution laws are not being removed it is the CAFE penalties that have been reduced to ZERO which is about fuel mileage and reduction of energy usage.

Which is why I buy older models and fix them. Lower taxes and no payments.

Now, if they could make them affordable again.

Tariffs are now officially at their highest in 100 years. That will impact both direct imports and shoot up raw materials pricing.

WE can still get EVs.

 

[JWBooth]

WE can still get EVs.

Without the subsidies to artificially boost interest we will see what the true demand for these things are.
Consumers elsewhere aren't any more interested in these things than we are, their governments are just shoving them down their throats with greater emphasis.

 

[Old Rocks]

Says the kind of fucktard that wouldn’t know a left handed half inch box wrench from a pot of striped paint.

Says some dumb fucktard who has probably never used half the tools this old millwright with 56 years experience has. Transportations use of ICE engines is a major factor in the present and future environmental disasters.

More dumb fuckery. No one is being forced to buy an EV. And very soon, before 2030, EV's will be faster, safer, have more range, and cost less than an equivalent ICE vehicle. Over 17 million EV's sold worldwide last year. Going to be more than that this year. Go ahead and stand in the horse turds by the road, yelling " Get a Horse. LOL

Never. We are going to turn out this cadre of loonies and incompetents that follow the current pedophile and felonious President. Maybe as soon as 2027.

Exactly. And when the wheels fall off my current rides, a 35 year old Ford stretch van, and a 22 year old Dodge Caravan, I will be in the market for a good used EV.

 

[Old Rocks]

Do you own an EV?

And?

 

[Toddsterpatriot]

Never. We are going to turn out this cadre of loonies and incompetents that follow the current pedophile and felonious President. Maybe as soon as 2027.

Why will eliminating CAFE standards result in smog?

Then STFU go live there.

**** you. I will stay here and work to make my nation better. Unlike the MAGAts, I do not think the 19th century was ideal.

Whatever, warmer buttpipe.

Why will eliminating CAFE standards result in smog?

CAFE standards, or Corporate Average Fuel Economy standards, are regulations in the United States aimed at improving the average fuel economy of cars and light trucks to reduce energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions.

A major greenhouse gas and creator of smog is ozone. Another is nitrous oxides. Many of the CAFE standards involve those gases. However, doesn't really matter, as that will be very short lived. As the MAGAts and Trump by this midterm will have created their own demise. And, by 2030, the majority of new vehicles even in the US will be EV's.
