At present - West Coast beginning counting - it's looking like Trump will win US election
That will throw cat amongst pigeons of EV policy in the states.

its a damn mighty HOOT !
What a friggin win - Elon made the call long call ago backing the horse he knew would agree making a special under the table agreement no doubt about it. Never know what it is but you can bet his brand will have Import protection of some kind and other EV competitors not.

Yep it might be tied to 'so long as you build it in America'.
They're going to drill on day 1. Also, this win is bigger than the 1980 Reagan win apparently - look what happened to all the late 1970s green tech developed under Carter, and what happened with oil, when that occurred.

In the end Farley's still an Idiot!
Still talking crap about how good EV sales are while repurposing a plant in Canada from building EV's to F350's & shutting down another shift for EV's in Michigan Never seen a CEO with less vision |

The manual gearbox in the i30 is fine out my way, it's no good in suburbia if you have ligament issues with your left knee. I haven't picked it up yet, maybe sometime next week... |
