Is he still flapping his face hole?
Is the media still platforming him?
I drove the cheap Chinese cars that are illegal in the USA. Now I know why

NP only. He wont stoop to rebel news at least. The rest of the media see him as an irrelevant fossil. Too bad they didn't do that when he was running things.

Rebel would be the perfect place for the person formerly known as Lord Black. Then most people could ignore him easier.

Lord HawHaw he was...
2 things: I used to own a Kei truck, Mitubishi Minicab. Friend just bought himself a Subaru Sambar pickup. You can import these duty free so long as they're 15 years old at least. So why can't I bring in a brand new one and pay the 25% duty?
I also drove a 2027 Chevy Bolt awhile ago. $41K Tell me why I shouldn't buy one.
Get the usual gibberish BS from people, ranhe, no chargers, battery expensive, roo many gizmos to go wrong etc.
So I tell them: say I expect to use it for 100,000 Km. Reasonable, right? My Wangler gets 12L/100km at best, that's 12,000 L or $24,000. Of gas I wouldn't buy. Tack on 12 oil changes at $100 ezch, timing belt job. coolant. transmission and at ;east 1 brake job in 100,000 km.
And hell, all those $3.50 bottles of pop and bags of chips not stopping at gas stations.
I can drive the Bolt for 4 hours at 100kmh, and I stop for food or a piss that often as it is. I figure a 1/2 hr charge in Quesnel, and overnight in Cache Creek (do that anyways) and be in Abbotsford next day to visit and charge up at my sister's. Or visit my daughter in Prince George, shop and come home on one charge and fully recharge at home overnight. In winter I can have it preheat too, unplug it and drive in warmth and just plug it in again every day JUST LIKE the Jeep - without driving ro rhe store and halfway back before it even starts to warm up.
So tell me why I shouldn't run out and buy it right now.

And all the cars have gizmos, usually to advertise you you or slurp your data and sell it in your own private space that you pay for.
