re: We've reached price parity between EV and ICE vehicles****

[quote]Still waiting on the equivalent of the Geo Metro in EV form, if they want mass adoption of EVs they will need to make a model under $20k.

I mean you can get a pretty good used Club Car for $6500.

They made about $12.4 billion last year, which is impressive. But that would likely be substantially higher if they weren't throwing pallets of cash into their EV business....
We've reached price parity between EV and ICE vehicles****
Posted by frequent flyer on 5/20/24 at 2:47 pm
The asterisk in the title is if you include the $7500 federal tax credit applied to electric vehicles manufactured and assembled in the USA. So keep that insanity in mind when you read articles on how EV's are now the same price as similar gasoline alternatives
In 2025, two Chevrolet Equinox cr...

[quote]Lafayette is a nice place to fly out of nowadays. 2-3 minutes from the front door to the gate. The CRJs United flies out of there suck but the facility itself is great.[/quote]

I am sure you can find an outlet.
IMO an airport that you can get from your car to the gate in less than 20 minutes is damn good. That's why I love airports like BTR, OKC, and DCA...

Posted by frequent flyer on 5/14/24 at 9:02 am
If you have a reliable car, keep it going. Invest in new tires, windshield, and getting it checked over by a mechanic. Even replacing major components like HVAC or transmissions might be worth the effort over buying a newer vehicle.
The new cars out there are, frankly, not as reliable and fa...

Baton Rouge region represents 50% of Louisiana's job growth, but unemployment is going up
Posted by frequent flyer on 5/9/24 at 12:22 pm
It should be no surprise to anyone that the southern part of Louisiana (particularly Baton Rouge and Lake Charles) are carrying the state when it comes to economic growth. Baton Rouge metro alone represents just 20% of the state's population, but 50% of the job growth.
However it looks like ...
