It is what it is. Not like i can do anything with these points anyways.

The original price of 24950 included the federal tax rebate. This is why they used cheaper batteries and other cost cutting to try to keep the price the same. The rebates are gone.

No regulation is a problem, and incorrect regulation is also a problem. Both led to terrible outcomes.

Your insite on this topic is amazing and we are all better of for it.

This is just another way of saying the policy lead to bigger vehicles.

Thanks

And the law made the cars bigger

Thanks. This is exactly what happened. And when vehicles started becoming larger, consumers wanted to feel safe so it become an arms race of size. Now we have a whole generation of drivers that demand large vehicles.

Your are the only one that thinks the epa didn't cause large vehicles. Just Google "suv loophole" and get some free knowledge.

The policy had good intentions, but failed miserably. But keep defending a policy even the policy makers admit was a mistake.

Just Google suv loophole. Knowledge is still free.

No, that's a logical fallacy, and you are using another one called a strawman. It's common knowledge in the industry the epa created large vehicles. It's not even disputed except here on lemmy for some reason

No, it was the standard that made large vehicles. Not enforcement. And yes smog is a real thing.

Usually large works for carb.

People who work in environmental compliance. I worked for carb for 10 yrs

That's not what the CEO of gm and ford said when the epa started these rules

The EPA did this. It created a whole generation of customers wanting large vehicles because of their dumb emissions standards they wrote. Glad they are gone so we can make small cars again.

Edit: boy lemmings be lemming.

Well at least your ears still work

Im a millennial but ill take that as a complement. I do have more money than most boomers now
