For those who don’t want to read about how aMaZiNg this car is or just don’t wanna scroll, it starts at $130,000.
Electric SUVs are no better than gas trucks. The weight and shape of the vehicle require an unsustainable amount of energy. Furthermore, they give rich people the moral validation that keeps them trashing the planet with a good conscience.
They also weigh even more than an equivalently sized combustion powered truck, and really do a number on road surfaces. Because they weigh so damn much the kinetic energy involved when the Karen driving one inevitably hits something is also immense, even more than a fuel burning truck of the same dimensions. Bear that in mind in case you ever find one plowing through your living room.
The vast majority of people who think they “need” a truck do not, in fact, actually need a truck or large SUV.
Oh man I can’t wait to see that giant grill and headlights fill the entirety of my rear view mirror.
Imagine if car companies made electric cars most people could afford…
If you qualified for a 3% loan on $130,000 for 84 months (7 yrs), payments would be $1,717.77 per month. Total cost $144,292.68. Fuck all the way off.
The people that can afford these cars typically buy them out right, or they use collateral to obtain them. This isn’t a game for common folk.
To be fair, if this car is even remotely on your radar as a serious purchase possibility, you probably have a car that you’d trade in to lower that $130K number.
Of course, I don’t, but that’s why I’m not even considering it.
Or, just have your people wire the money to the dealer, then have another one of your people go to the dealer, pick up the car and your key, and bring it back to one of your several properties.
