Good thing that guy didn't quit because it was hard to find gas in the early days. I love the rumble of an American V-8 but I admit we aren't going to be able to burn fossil fuels forever. Alternatives are coming, Fudd it all you want. Tesla ain't perfect but at least there is some innovation there. Someday the big three will get more involved and put their long history of engineering and innovation to work.
That's the mindset I can't wrap my head around. "It doesn't work right now, so there's no sense in trying further." Ford and GM are on the same tech plain as Tesla and Rivian, all expected in 2021... Tesla and Rivian just can't afford to keep it under wraps and not use their vehicles to raise investments.
I also remember some bailouts recently too.
I'd like to know who had the gumption to tear up that $600 Obama check.
