      The average price of a new car is 50k.

      The US car industry makes almost no actual cars since sedans and wagons don’t make much money per vehicle.

      The whole fucking industry deserves to go out of business, and the laws that incentivized building trucks needs to go with it.

      That's a very US-centric view of car industry

        I figured something was up when I got a call out of the blue from the Tesla dealership asking if I wanted to upgrade my 2019 to a newer model. Joke's on them, though. I'm unemployed.

            I thought Tesla was going to start building robots, instead of cars.

            This is my stupid fucking friend who can’t get off Elons nuts at all. It’s fucking sad. He literally bought a model Y the other day despite me telling him Rivian is about to release a competitor because he thinks he can add it to the robo taxi fleet in a year or two. God I love him and am sick of this shit.

                  Why the fuck is the are cars like the golf, 206 etc the size of a Passat from 20ish years ago.

                  Why is BMW building a fat front wheel drive called the 2 series.

                  Why can’t VAG produce anything quality it doesn’t matter if it’s a Skoda or an Audi they’ve all tuned into low quality shit.

                  Why are reasonable midsized cars in Europe now crossover SUV’s?

                  Basically it boils down to everything has gotten big, fat, and overpriced have you even seen a Polo?

                  Fuck the entire German car industry they’ve betrayed what made people like them to chase trends and extra profits

                  And finally fuck me because I own two VW’s and Two BMW’s

                    Elon couldn't pay me to buy a Tesla. I like EVs. It's not about the technology. It's entirely about Elon. I'd rather buy Japanese or South Korean, thank you.

                        I own a Honda Fit. It's small, is reasonably petrol efficient, has actual dials and physical knobs for an interface, and needs just basic maintenance to run reliably.

                        Of course they've been discontinued in Canada.

                              Remember when he told his advertisers to fuck off, and then two weeks later sued them because they fucked off? That's the depth of this man's genius!!!

                                I'd buy another one. The Fit is a fantastic economy car. I want an EV, but older cars don't track. That's more important to me than the convenience of an EV.

                                    Which Japanese EV? I'm not aware of any good ones.

                                    Korean ones? Best on the market. If you want the best for a reasonable price, Hyundai or Kia.

                                          The average price of a new car is 50k.

                                          The US car industry makes almost no actual cars since sedans and wagons don’t make much money per vehicle.

                                          The whole fucking industry deserves to go out of business, and the laws that incentivized building trucks needs to go with it.

                                          And here I am, still thinking anything but sedans are ugly af. SUVs are the most hideous vehicle I've ever seen. Ugly and absolutely the worst possible kind of shape.

                                          Well 2nd worst. Trucks are worse since they tend to be taller. Plus I've never met a decent person who owns one of those tall ones. They're all just chick size competitions, smallest dick finally wins in their eyes. If you absolutely have to have a truck, get one of those Japanese types that are almost as small as a real car that actually has a bed on it.

                                          Whoever started the trend of trucks getting bigger, taller, and fatter all while the bed is smaller than my tiny cars backseat should actually be executed. How many people are they responsible for killing?
