Took the Plunge EV

Fake exhaust noise?

 

[Hey-O]

Stellantis buckled by killing off the Hemi so they effing suck too.....they are eating crow now!

The world of business runs a little bit deeper than dork wheels, stacks of cars and parts and your thoughts that our world is ending because of Stellantis, but I get it. The way things are unfolding at the governments end of it, the hemi's coming back.

My Coronet is part of my recreation, not my total life. My love for the smell of gas and being able to drive whatever I want is my reward for all the other things, other than cars, that define me. It's true, I don't turn wrenches anymore and dying with the most cars and parts all around me for someone else was never my dream. I guess I'm here for a different reason than you. When you and I are gone, none of this will matter. Till then, my goal is to "Let The Horses Run".

While I wish you good luck. (Seriously) The ev stuff wouldn’t have happened without government subsidies . The ev push, solar farms and wind mills are all a big scam without taxpayer funding we wouldn’t be here. Our fore fathers are laughing their sack off at us right now. I was told by a higher up in a large electric company in St Louis solar never ads up and I believe him. Coal / gas / and nuclear power your car and diesel dug the ores, etc etc.
I hate any Stellantis, vehicle as the quality is terrible. They treat Chrysler Corp like a red headed step child and throw the scraps to us and say isn’t it great? Everything except the full size truck, wrangler and Pacifica are all sloppy seconds... My wife’s. 65k Grand Cherokee L is a pile that thinks it a Maserati on the radio screen and constant lights for this or that... I stopped going to the dealer because they kept charge of me and nothing got fixed ever!
Good luck, please be safe with it and don’t park it inside the garage!

Do a little research, Globally, fossil fuel subsidies accounted for about 7% to 7.1% of global GDP in 2022, which is equivalent to $7 trillion, according to the International Monetary Fund. In 2023, global public financial support (subsidies) for renewable power, mainly targeting solar and wind energy, was at least about $168 billion, with advanced economies and China accounting for 95% of this support. This amount is less than one third of global fossil fuel subsidies, which were roughly $535 billion in G20 countries alone.

In regions where conventional electricity prices are relatively high, solar power can compete favorably by offering cheaper energy alternatives. Markets in Spain, Italy, France, Greece, and the UK have benefited from this dynamic, enabling solar projects to be profitable without subsidies by simply by selling power directly to the market.

USA is going to be left behind because too many people believe political crap being circulated that is simply not true. People think you can bury your head in the sand and wish for the good old days. in my life I have learned that the only thing you can count on is that things change, how well you deal with the changes, is what affects your life the most.

Everyone I know that has solar panels regretted buying them,the payments on them equal or exceed the price of their electric bills, and by the time they are paid for they will be obsolete. A guy I work with signed a 25 year contract, it's iron clad,no getting out of it. My other friend made payments on them for a year before the company could make them work. He still had to pay his full electric bills too. Not to mention the holes drilled into a perfectly good roof!
