Anyone else seeing very new EVs being sold on the side of the road with a FOR SALE sign in the window?

I've seen 3 in the last week at various street corners. Expensive new EV cars being dumped because the dealers won't take them. How about you are seeing what I see?

Just the other day, i saw a H2 hummer in pristine condition. The new EV hummer's are being rebranded "Bummer".

Anyone notice just how destroyed the Co2 FRAUD is in Enviro section???

If Trump picks patriotic Americans for AG and FBI Director, the Co2 FRAUD will end very shortly... VERY SHORTLY.

I read that the Hummer EV battery weighs THREE THOUSAND POUNDS!!! That's as much as a mini Cooper!

Normal tire wear for vehicles like the H2 and Ford Bronco, would be around 50,000 miles. The weight of EV's make the tire usage end up around 30,000 or less. But hey, no big deal, right, less miles traveled per charge, less miles it takes to wear out your tires.

I see ones for sale in ads, sides of the road just like gas powered vehicles.

Nope haven't seen it once. We have a new EV company making custom sports cars for the US market and a lithium ion battery plant coming into our area though. I don't expect either to have a lot of local sales, but as long as it creates jobs, let them come on down and be the next contestant on The Government Subsidy Is Right.

It's happening because the entire EV industry has been pushed on us DECADES TOO EARLY. Nothing is ready for prime time and the market has spoken. People don't want their VERY NEW EVs because they are a pain in the ass and dealers don't want them because they can't sell them.

The place being built locally is out of England and they hand-build the cars to order so I am guessing they will be pricey as F.

I see Tesla cars from time to time and occasionally those ugly ass trucks, but they are still very much a novelty. There are only 2 charging stations in our city--one for city vehicles only and another at a dealership that doesn't let just anybody use it. If you want a full electric vehicle, you better be ready to also get the electric upgraded for your house cause you will be on your own in the wild otherwise.
