Been writing this for years.

Now it looks like Chinese peak oil has come. Now the world price will tank, and never recover. Build renewable!!

I looked at the major vehicle brands line ups. They are just basically SUVs, trucks and vans. Ford only sells one car, the Mustang.

None of the big 3 makes a city car. Even Subaru is making the STI in electric only.

Looked at a Kia plugin, $39000 and they promised to find a $2500 discount.... trading in the Wrangler that would be affordable.

Just read you can buy a new Fisker Ocean for $21k in Cali. Down from $70k!

540hp, 0-60 in 3!

But warranty is 30/30. 30 seconds or 30 metres.
