So silly me kind of likes new Tesla :truk:

The roof line is insultingly ugly as are some other "design" elements but a second gen slightly massaged would be cool. I likely won't ever own one but rich people are buying them even with 3M taped iPads and toilet bowl plunger rubber steering wheels.

I gotta give Tesla credit, they know how to raise stock prices and bring actual products to the market on OPPs dime. They know how to get solid range from their cars. I like that they are American, and that they aren't afraid to be different.

Tacomas have been built in Mexico for a long while, it just seems they're moving ALL :taco: production to Tacoland.
:dat:

Production has been split. Not sure on the percentage of Tacos sold in the US were made in the US.

SHOCKING... :lolgasm:
I drove one when they first came out. The sticker was something like $45K and absolutely no room to budge on price. After driving it, the salesman asked me what I thought, and I told him that I didn't see the value in the truck. There is absolutely no reason for me to spend $45,000 on a Gladiator when there are Rams in the very same lot that are much nicer, much more capable, and have the same sticker price plus $10,000+ in rebates.

We’re seeing 8-10k here .... makes sense that women more desperate dealers throw 10-15 on the hood. They top out at 70k which is frankly insane

But that Ram doesn’t have a North Face tent for its roof, bruh. It’s also too wide for the Rubicon trail and NOT A JEEP :triggered:

I agree with your assessment. I’d take a Ram over one. I don’t off-road tho. I am the 99.95%.

The JT is +3-4k on already 10k too high MSRP. The JLs, should be quite good :dill: 's come march/april timeframe.
The Willys edition is a great package.
