Very cool to see the Bolt/Bolt EUV doing so well. Chevy Bolt Family Gains Massive Market Share During Q1 2023 (gmauthority.com) Almost 20,000 Bolts sold in the US compared to January-March 2023: Tesla Model Y - 93,294 (up 79%) Tesla Model 3 - 52,885 (up 11%) Yes small but growing which is good.

Thank you @trinacriabob for the review, interesting to see how GM just kept this going when it truly needed a major refresh. Sad for the end of ICE cars for GM, but hoping they get more options in EV format.

So excited for you Robert on your new place and all the exciting things that come with a new place. Just got back from PTO at Fairmont Hot springs and already miss the twice day soaking in them. I can feel the difference in my body and I know you and your sister will love it for making the body feel better. Looking forward to updated pictures when you get a chance. Exciting to think that you will be moved in next weekend.

Just like Tesla and Mercedes, Selling out can mean many things and VW is not stating how many they are going to produce for this year, so it can be many things of German Deception, no different than Tesla Deception.

This so deserves a FAILURE emoji as there is NO camper. Musk had a one and done custom built unit to show off, but there is no company building or even offering to build yet a camper, trailer, etc. for the Cybertruck. There is a company that has exclusive rights to sell you a limited space bed tent. There website and name is a deceptive name as it is NOT a CAMPER. Homepage - Space Campers

It will be exciting to see how this goes. I like the look, be interesting to see how roomy it is inside.

I hope they prosecute that You Tuber for her stupidity. She deserves to have to pay big time for that stunt.

Will be interesting to see as it is selling out for the current production year in Europe at a starting price of $64,581 Euros which is $69,133.96 U.S. dollars in today's exchange rate 6-2-2023.

Will be interesting to see how GM/Cadillac if they do bring it here will make it a Performance SUV as the current numbers for China with Hybrid is nothing spectacular.

Interesting read. https://gmauthority.com/blog/2023/06/heres-how-to-reboot-your-gm-vehicles-infotainment-system/

I can see this being a hit and will force Chrysler to move forward with a modern EV update to their Minivan as will the asian brands that still build minivans.

Not bad looking, I have to assume the interior will be the same as the current trucks which would be a shame as they could have taken it next level. At least they have given a decent suspension system.

Kicking off the June spotting thread with an Imperial Crown that has a 1963 license plate.

How do you explain that the Pryamid angle of the truck and especially the bed means there is NOTHING out there from a bed camper to a 5th wheel that can work with this truck as it is NOT standard in anyway. On top of this, basic uses of a truck require a flat bed area which this does not have. Then you also have the same problem as the Rivian, a Unibody bed which means unlike the Ford, you cannot just simply replace the bed when it has damage. Cybertruck will have the same extreme costs to repair as Rivian. Damage can be small, but repair of this Unibody truck will be expensive.

A few statements from both Tesla and Tesla Fan sites. These Cybertruck buyers have never owned a pickup truck. The bulk are new to the pickup truck market. Those that had Cybertruck reservations have become Ford or Rivian Pickup buyers as they got there first. Course we the public have no real knowledge of how many refunds have been made to date against the Cybertruck nor how many actual reservations Tesla has. Tesla on their investment day and battery day have clearly stated that they will start with top end fully equipped Cybertruck orders first, so 6 figure trucks that are no different than a GMC Hummer Pickup or the F150 Lighting Launch edition or what is know as the Launch Edition for the Chevrolet Silverado or GMC Sierra Launch Edition. All 6 figure trucks. GM and Ford like Rivian will get to 5 figure trucks far faster than Tesla which has proven they truly have NO INTEREST in building cheap EVs. I doubt you will see a Cybertruck below 70-80 thousand dollars before 2026 when GM and Ford as well as Ram will be shipping their commercial EV editions. On top of this, the Cybertruck will be a FAILURE as it is not a Real Truck but a Unibody Honda Ridgeline competitor that will not be able to haul the bulk of todays 5th wheels and other trailers as it was never designed or intended to support the real truck market. Yes Tesla Fans will buy it, but the bulk of the truck market will not buy Tesla.

@oldshurst442 @ccap41 @surreal1272 @trinacriabob @NINETY EIGHT REGENCY @Drew Dowdell Seems Hyundai has decided to move forward with the 2 door Pony car concept as an actual street car. https://www.hagerty.com/media/news/hyundai-n-vision-74-is-go-for-launch-report/ https://news.mt.co.kr/mtview.php?no=2023050808323469185 Seems facial recognition is a go for Genesis EVs plus much more tech for security and more. https://electrek.co/2023/05/31/genesis-brings-facial-recognition-cool-new-features-evs/

Good read: https://moparinsiders.com/dodge-charger-daytona-srt-banshee-continues-to-push-forward/ Also released by Chevrolet, the ZR2 Bison ? extreme off-road truck. https://media.chevrolet.com/media/us/en/chevrolet/vehicles/colorado-zr2/2024.html New standard safety for GM EVs. https://pressroom.gm.com/gmbx/us/en/pressroom/home/news.detail.html/Pages/news/us/en/2023/may/0531-safety.html SRT Banshee is refined and being shown to the public again.

This study has some valid thoughts, but is wrong saying it applies to the whole nation. Being a California influenced study, yes in southern states it makes sense to probably recharge during the day. PNW it does not as hydro and wind is the big power source and here power consumption during the day is higher than at night. https://www.thebrighterside.news/post/stanford-study-warns-against-overnight-charging-of-electric-cars-at-home

Lovely wagon, amazing most old autos here in Canada are rusted out, but this is sexy wagon.

Very good read for those interested in batterybtech. https://ts2.space/en/solid-state-battery-technology/ Damn, this is close for the Rivian pickup.

Bigger is better IMHO. I love my Galaxy 23 Ultra. I cannot think of having a phone without a stylus and big screen for my big hands. I get that for some the Pro Max is a bit too big, but both the Pro that my son has and the pro max that my daughter has they love it. All the best to you Robert with your new iPhone. Enjoy the realestate.

Is this the actual move into your new house Robert? Wishing you all the best for the holiday move if it is.

I have posted so many times in so many threads here that the ExoSkeleton Cyber Truck would have been a game changer. Instead, the public will get a Honda Ridgeline competing Unibody pickup that will have a fraction of what Musk has promised. All flash and no real steal!

So I have been all week in Vegas, sucky story I will post after I get back in a week as I am taking PTO off to go escape and unplug in the Canadian Rockies, Fairmount Hot springs. Summer Family Trip - Fairmont Hot Springs Resort Reservations Wanted to jump on this as I thought about this all week long and I wonder if this is what they will do? Escalade IQ Escalade IQL EV versions of Escalade Escalade ESV I totally agree that once ICE is gone, just go back to Escalade, but what about the ESV, go with just L then?

True valid points, but then this surprise 50 extra miles tends to lead me to believe that GM is being ultra-Conservative on the Ultium battery packs and motors. I would not be surprised as they get more data on the existing EVs to see them tune the controllers giving more range under normal conditions and better estimates under load / trailering.
