Industry News: Ford Executive Wants A Sequel To "Cash for Clunkers"
While I have no problem with the government spending tax dollars on new tech to get things moving forward as to why I support the EV rebates for now, eventually they have to go away. Things that need to go away are pork like the $50 billion given to the oil industry for exploratory drilling. WHY, Exxon Mobile made over $100 Billion in pure profit last year, I doubt they need tax dollars for finding new oil well's especially when they make that much money. Another PORK that needs to go away is the billions spent on maintaining the worlds biggest Tank fleet parked in the high Dessert in California when the military says they do not want or need tanks in this modern world as they are not useful in the modern warfare world. Just a couple of examples where we need to cut fat, live within our budget and focus like we did in the 90's paying down national debt.

Project INVICTA
Deep Metallic Forest Green my dad had on his 49 Merc and it was amazing! It was very much like this: Wish he still had it, but traded it in for a Mercury station wagon late 60's as my two older sisters and me made them go after a bigger roomy auto for the family.

I understand that, I just do not see value in people trashing a product like this as it is not even a valid review video. Guess I just do not see any reason why people have to be like that in the video. I am also the type of person that sees no value in social media Idiots that only want people to look at them like the Kardashin morons or how ever you spell their name.

True, impressive that it still ran so well after all the crap they did. Still, work is so hard to earn the money to then trash something that cost so much.

I will never understand IDIOTS that destroy auto's just for the sake of seeing if they can. Anything can be destroyed and why would you pay that kind of money to then abuse it. Must be a trust fund IDIOT! ?

Weird as the chevy web site says 690 trucks, but then I clicked down into it and for a 100 mile radius around me it says actually 86 available. Removed everything except the true base level and came up with 24 matches. wow.

Yes, that is what came up when I built on the web site. Clearly had it marked as a diesel and it came back with that many. Posted 12hrs ago on page 585. Love the Havana Brown Metallic

Easy, those are the common cord used for DVD/Blue ray players. I have them on multiple home electronics in both the living room and family room. Ya need to Rip those babies and put them on a NAS for the house with Bluetooth/WiFi connectivity and then have a Bose Wifi/Bluetooth speaker out there. Then ya get some really sweet sounds.

That is very weird as I found 688 variations of what @balthazar is looking for in my 50 mile circle search area.

But they do build them to withstand forces greater than what happens in an auto accident. That alone from an engineering standpoint shows that Aluminum/High Strength steel sub assembly like this can work. Especially with the honey comb crumple zone would imply that it is designed much like the front end of auto's to absorb the impact in protecting occupants and then allow it to be replaced to get the auto back on the road asap IMHO. Latest Update on the Jaguar XJ Sedan. https://www.autoblog.com/2020/05/04/electric-jaguar-xj-design/ Jag has confirmed that while they are ditching all ICE power trains for the next generation XJ sedan, they are not going to give up their style, size and luxury interior as other auto companies have done. Jag states they will keep the elegant luxury look of the XJ sedan and evolve it for the 21st century. Currently the new EV sedan is undergoing cold weather testing at the far north arctic circle.
