Another 1 year term for DF before he is fired
EVs ok in cold, but are seriously lousy pulling anything as we all know by now.
@xjd+1nzdgDk6 If EVs don't work well in the winter, how is Norway at almost 100% EV take rate lol.
They're THE poster child for EV adoption w/average max annual temp 49F, and average min at 34F. Year round, the average temp is a hair over freezing.
Though...most of those are all teslas, so maybe just those are good in freezing weather.

EVs su-k. Everyone with a functioning brain knows this. Which means Doug Field thinks they are wonderful!
Well EVs are not selling. Quite a few sitting on the lots. quite a few customers refused to make final purchase. Not looking good for BF or JF. WS needs to demand new leadership. Staring with the family controlled BOD. Then filter that down to the senior management starting with JF, DF.
EV's work best at around 72 deg F ... the climate of comifornia is great for EV's and other bad ideas.
