That doesn't make sense. Private equity companies buy struggling companies at a multiple of what they are worth, in hopes of selling it for more later. It was purchased in 2005. I am sure the equity company who owns it isn't happy that they are going bankrupt.
You would think that people in the future would be smart enough to not do that, but they also wear one-piece form fitting jumpsuits so I wonder how smart they really are. The future does not look good.
I don't live in California. But the idea that you are buying a $80,000 car to save a couple of hundred bucks a year on gas is rather comical. People don't buy Teslas to save money on fuel.
That's true. I forgot solar panels were free. I have my own gasoline refinery in my backyard so it is more efficient for me to use gasoline. But it might make more sense to buy a $80,000 Tesla to save a couple of hundred bucks a year.

I love the "whitelist us" adblock popups. As if I am going to whitelist any site so they can show me ads that can contain god knows what malware.
It is 1995 again. Bots are going to take over the world!
Yes that is probably it! Thanks.
Thats what THEY want you to believe. I am wrapping my head in tinfoil. They won't make a fool of me!
The site seems to be down.
So what VPN provider do you people recommend?
I said my mind was blown. Get a grip.
Being a guy, pretty much.

Mind...blown. Cap'n Spock says "May the Force be with you!" before he enters the transporter.
We call those people "Republicans". Zing!
If that were true, everytime someone on Star Trek stepped through a transporter they would be dead too.
Fortunately for them, my brain can be contained in just 640k of memory.
For some reason, I am not sure why you think that is how they found out.
Thanks CNN.
I would buy a VR headset with that! It might solve the motion sickness and eyestrain issues with typical VR headsets.
Yes you might save $500/year by buying a $80,000 car.
So as long as you own multiple cars, owning an electric one is cost effective. Insanity.
When you can afford a $80,000 personal car and $20,000 in solar panels a lot of things work well for you.

Gas prices average around $2.50 in the US.
Plus gas is really $2.50 per gal. So assuming a 30mpg car it is $2.50/30 = 0.08. For Tesla you get 3 miles per kWh so it is .26/3 = $0.08/mile.
Why is that scary? It is a simple data lookup. You gave them the data.
