this was coming anyways. i’ve commented on this privately in an industry context a few times.

many of the large rental companies will become ‘fleet management’ companies given thier experience in managing their own large fleets and ability to scale that experience to fleets where the equity or capital is held by someone else.

all automotive is going ot change massively in various ways that we are already seeing.

Sounds like Toyota has so far made the right bet with hybrids.

makes sense. their truck is grossly overpriced for what it is. I think it will get worse as Tesla and GM ramp up production of their trucks. I checked one out and for $100k id rather wait for the cybertruck or hummer.

I can’t figure out if it will cause a run on Titans requiring an extension, or a boycott on Titans/Nissan.

New Nissans (anything past 2000 really) are huge piles of utter horseshit. Tin can construction, THE WORST CVT ever, cheap shit paint and interior quality on par with C5 corvettes.

These are the big three main questions that are never answered.  
Some people that drive EV’s have this superiority attitude that they are “doing better for the planet” when they don’t even realize how much of an impact their car really has. It’s simply displacing the direct responsibility of the driver since they see themselves as being better by not using fossil fuels to power their car, when they really still are, not realizing what it took to make that car and what it will take to dispose of it.

When looking for a first car for my daughter I couldn’t believe how cheap 3-4 year old 60k’ish mileage Rogues were. They’re basically worthless at that point.
