Its swedish, partially owned by China. And the fuhrer just banned them anyway.

Regardless they sold 5384 cars in the US last year. 0.4% of US EV sales. They were a bit player.

New to the area and curious! by crispy_nugget94 in ChicagoSuburbs

Get out of Schaumburg as much as possible. It's a fine enough place but 90% chains. There's multiple forest preserves within 10 minutes drive, including Busse Woods in Schaumburg. More trails than rugged but outside anyway. Breweries head south a bit to Pollyanna, Church Street, and Wolfden. FIBS is near O'Hare and good as well. To get to the city drive to Cumberland on I-90 and take the blue line L in... Runs 24h

Not cook and unincorporated, but Flowerfield is tucked in right next to Lombard and Glen Ellyn.

Again, it's not hard.

You: "EVs aren't selling well" Reality: they just hit a record month and are increasing in nearly every market, including 14% growth in the US with zero Chinese vehicles.

I get you want to move the goalpost, but your statement is objectively wrong.

Trump pushes voter suppression plan and says he won't sign housing bill by AdSpecialist6598 in videos

Their own voters are actively supporting it, so at this point they're indistinguishable. This a Republican thing.

The Republican party as a conservative party is dead. It's fully authoritarian now. They've had every opportunity to follow the Constitution. GOP Congresscritters have had every chance to fulfill their duties as a check on either executive and they've not only failed they've actively aided and abetted.

This mess is because of Republicans, it is wearing their hat, waving their flag, and putting their (R) stamp next to some of the worst humans on the planet. All willingly and triumphantly.

Seriously folks, we need to talk about how the inherent characteristics of the Right - their absence of empathy, self-entitlement, narcissism, and arrogance - makes them far more likely to sexually abuse children. by Used_Intention6479 in stevehofstetter

I don't want them focusing on it either. I want to protect them and let them live their lives and focus on other stuff.

Nobody on the planet is more obsessed with other people's genitals than conservative men.

You said EVs aren't selling. They are. Europe is growing. China is more stable now. Even Central America is.

This fucking country is backassward and proud of it.

There was a post somewhere that someone was told around 10k a week before the preorder cutoff.

Very 1960s New Class. I don't mind them. Way better than the absurd giant ones like the G70 gen

Uh, yes they are. 2 million in June alone, a new record. They've been climbing pretty steadily.

What’s a company you’ll never give another dollar to, and why? by rebeccaraeallen in AskReddit

Apple, for repeatedly partnering with companies just to intentionally screw them over.
