  1. Anyone else see or watch the video showing the Faraday Future EV Auto Reveal? Check it out now as it is a very cool EV Auto with 378 Miles Battery Pack.
  2. At 15:20 is where the actual presentation begins with Nick. 36:02 they show their self parking with no one in the car, VERY COOL. EPA rated at 378 miles per Charge for the 130kWh battery pack. 1050HP or 783 kW motors. 2.39 seconds on 0-60. 58:36 they finally bring the car on stage and show off the 0-60 speed. 1hr 01:50 they cover the drag of .25 and how every point reduced is a 12 mile gain in battery range. 1hr 8 min they start showing off the production and details of the car and then finally bring the actual auto on the stage at 1hr 11:30 min. 1:20:00 they show off the interior and talk about the car, rear doors are suicide doors. Interior is very roomy it looks like and I think cool. The whole thing is great to watch, the last 30 min is probably what most will want to see as they tour the auto for everyone. FF91 deliveries will begin in March 2017.
  3. Here is the Reveal, so what do you all think?
  4. So lets leave the political banter in the political forum threads and get back to random thoughts! GE just bought 75 Boeing 737 Max which only has one engine, the GE Leaf engine. I wonder what besides the obvious leasing of jets to others might be a reason for GE so focused on buying Boeing jets with GE engines. Could this be GE's way to long term plan production capacity knowing they get to write off certain expenses and cost associated with leasing jets to others that they buy? Very interesting on top that GE has purchased stock in both FORD and GM according to their filings as diversified investments. Makes me wonder if GE is hedging their EV strategy as they build controllers for electric motors. H'mmmmmmmmmmmmm
  5. Awesome review of the Year BOBO, Thank you for all you have done and best wishes to you and your family for the new year.
  6. Interesting, wonder if chinese ownership had anything to do with this?
  7. Simple, he started off with saying he had stopped and test drove a CX5. I have been in all 3 of the CUVs and they all have big problems that i have come across and now that i finally spent a week in a CX9, I can say that I would never recommend the Mazda CUVs to anyone. Way too many problems which I will cover when I do my write up on my week rental of the CX9. I missed the comments about a Mazda 3.
  8. Go for the Focus over the Mazda, after my 8 days, 7 nights with a Mazda CX-9 in Hawaii, I give the Mazda CUV's a D-. Reliable point a to b transportation but everything else about the auto's fail. Writing up my review to post in members reviews of auto's for this week. Focus is a better auto for you than the Mazda CUVs.
  9. Nothing fancy today, but found these two videos of a guy who bought this 1939 Dodge Brothers 1/2 ton pickup for $250.00, cleaned it up and then decided to make it an EV. Pretty Cool if you ask me! Part 1 Part 2
  10. ATS 2.0T AWD would be an awesome auto for you.
  11. Auto companies will still be on the hook to replace them or face fines. I suspect if Takata goes bankrupt and closes down, someone else will step in to supply bags as buying back auto's will be a nightmare every auto company will want to avoid.
  12. Very Cool! Be interesting to see all the auto reveals at CES this week.
  13. Yet what is FCA doing to have current human desired auto's? Android bleeding edge nav / radio system alone will not cut it and continuing to gut the Chrysler, jeep, ram, dodge line to keep the garbage Fiat / Alfa going is a loser move. FAILURE for FCA, some wins for Google and that is it. Not going to win customers big time with this.
  14. Wonder what the Employee / Friend of Family discount would be on a fully loaded Chevy BOLT? That would be worth it possibly.
  15. I am still driving my very clean 1994 GMC SLE Suburban! Loving it man!
  16. G. David Felt Staff Writer Alternative Energy - www.CheersandGears.com Faraday Future Reveal at CES Faraday has been emailing me daily the last few days about their big reveal at CES tomorrow Jan 3rd. Here is their latest email about their new auto. I have to say that this back lit image reminds me of the car in Demolition Man. Exciting times for EV's this year!
  17. Howdy all, Welcome to January 2017, Today I saw someone during Xmas took delivery of their new Tesla X. Love the technology, but the design is just so blah to me.
  18. ^^^^^^ So Very True! Here's to hoping GMC shows off a very Butch Terrain! I love the current look, but now lets take it to the next level of off road mascular!
  19. But so bland looking. Very Forgetful.
  20. Strobe Light HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE!
  21. Good list, solid reasons and I do have to agree with those you cut.
  22. Interesting to see the variants they make with the new wrangler. I wonder if there will be a hybrid or EV version in the future.
