The best price i can find is 229 a month 3 year lease with $2.349 due at signing IN states with the govt. subsidies.
Then there is this: "Sorry, the e-Golf will be available only at participating dealers in California, Conneticut, Maine, Maryland, Massachussetts, New Jersey, New York, Oregon, Rhode Island, Vermont, and Washington, DC."
Guess i am SOL i don't live in one of those states.
Well lets change the laws why cant i have one license plate registered to me? Put it on what ever I am driving.
Same with insurance, i know the insurance crooks think I loan my 2nd car to anyone that asks, but that's bull. I never loan out a car.
First thing to being green is getting rid of ridged rules about registration and insurance.
My example, when the weather is nice i would ride a motorcycle, bad weather commute take the shit box, I need a truck for the weekend so gotta have that too. I cant afford to register and insure a fleet of cars so compromises must be made to the detriment of the environment. As the system is now i have to have the truck so the shit box is not owned (OR maybe an EV) due to the high cost of government and insurance stupidity so i pollute more when i shouldn't have to, just because of these archaic ways.
LOL reminds me of when my manager came to see what weatherunderground was, sorry man its just a weather site not a bunch of bomb throwing nuts from the 1960's.
I like my 62 dodge dart with a modern fuel injected engine controlled by a megasquirt (http://megasquirt.info/). Clean running, reliable and not full of bloat ware and other useless junk.
The engine control unit is connected to some sound systems in OEM setups so your puny engine sounds "cool" by making fake engine sounds through the stereo. Pretty lame reason to make it less secure.
The real question to me is. Do these cars really need all this shit? How about a car that just takes me where I am going, don't really need it to babysit , entertain of second guess me.

I used to live in San Jose and they made us sort into 3 bins and then dumped them into the single bin on the truck. Just scratch your head and say "whatever".
LOL Great comment, Flash is trash, and it must die a painful death.

I agree i get paid to recycle aluminum, steel, cardboard and electronics in the free market and my village takes the glass and plastic and paper. Why do the big cities and their corporate overlords have trouble making it pay when the average person and a village of 30,000 people can seem to manage.
If the crap they were selling was true we wouldn't be having this conversation, we would all be dead according to the experts at that time. I have learned most people prefer fear to reason and this is just proving my point.
I am an old grey beard and they were selling this bull and many other FUD stories in the 70's. None of it came to be. Seems to me we are going to get to relive all the paranoia and BS again. Nothing new in this old world.
I doubt Apple would buy it, the growth would reverse in a day since Apple is no friend of privacy. (Unless i suppose they need a quick tax write off but they got that with Beats)

More of the one size fits all BS. Sadly humans are not binary thus are a bitch to really understand their motivations.
Nice to see that American politicians are not the only crooks with too much power. Now what do we do about it?
So you have to compare it to race cars, not so impressive when comparing it apples to apples.
Seems to me everyone that believes in any "isim" is trying to force us to bend to their neuroses.

Thanks for the trip down memory lane, Jr College and the Apple II. Too bad i failed most of my regular classes to screw with BASIC coding.
Add writable optical media to that too, found an old backtrack 5 CD i wrote years ago the other day. Damn thing is blank now.
It fails 5 minutes after I think "I can can back it up tomorrow to busy today"

Never thought of it that way, he has a right to sue someone if it is defamation, but yea it might not work so well depending on who it really is.
I never said we have no affect on the biosphere, i said they were lying about the effects and they were, and likely still are.

I was just being a smart ass, then you come up with such an eloquent retort. Wish I could mod you up.
So he "used" a firearm thru the internet or thru the mail, pretty neat trick. The IoT is more interesting than I thought. :)
How 2005, guess I dont need to see it anyway.
Allow me to add to your almost perfect comment. "Start" Eliminate the corruption!!! We have a solar world, pretty damn simple!
