Electric Cars Sitting UNSOLD On Dealer Lots – Here is the Truth!
New electric cars are sitting UNSOLD on dealer lots – Here is the truth! The uncomfortable TRUTH about EVs is what the main stream media is not talking about. Here are the facts they don’t want you to hear.
Drive by car lots and you will see rows of unsold electric vehicles. Why is that, I thought everyone was transitioning to EVs. Why is this happening?
Let’s start with rental car companies, this was supposed to help people get comfortable with electric cars. Now, Hertz is selling off over 30,000 EVs due to high depreciation, customer frustration and massive repair bills. Other rental car companies are following the lead.
Tesla just laid off more than 10% of staff globally, and their sales are down too. Tesla is still the leader in electric cars. China's BYD is the main rival to Tesla, they offer an more choices in EVs for less than $30,000 and BYD offers a pickup truck, they're coming to the US soon and all while EV sales continue to fall and sitting on dealer lots unsold
for 1 and 1/2 times longer than hybrids or gas vehicles.
How did we get here, what happened it felt like yesterday that every automaker was jumping on the EV bandwagon. Remember, #jaguar pledged to be all electric by 2025; #alfa Romeo by 2027; #chrysler by 2028; #volvo #lotus, #astonmartin #gm and the rest by 2030 and forecasting an all electric spaceship flying to the moon; electric #boats and #airplanes too.
Today, the #ev euphoria is dead, automakers are scaling back or delaying their electric vehicle plans all together, this is what I call getting car catfished. This is an electrical nightmare and I’ll explain how it happened and how we got here and where we're going.
EV adoption and EV sales growth has slowed with market leader Tesla stalling in the
first quarter of this year sales fell by 15.2% compared to Q4 last year and while Tesla's sales have gone down almost 10% versus just a year ago and profits have followed suit being cut in roughly half the alarms are ringing.
Why are EV sales down for Tesla and other automakers?
Thanks for watching!

Is 2024 Chevy Silverado Electric RST Truck Better Than The Ford Lightning?
The 2024 Chevrolet Silverado EV is available in multiple specs: 4WT with 450-mile range on a full charge. 3WT with 393-mile range 1 on a full charge. RST First Edition with GM-estimated 440-mile range
We test drive the RST and show you the many unique features that makes the Silverado the benchmark in electric trucks.
Big power with the GM-estimated 754 horsepower and 785 lb-ft of torque, riding on 24” production alloy wheels and weight a whopping 9100 pounds, but this truck is fast with a zero to 60 mph in 4.5 seconds.
Range is critical in an EV, the RST offers an impressive 440 miles of range. Compare that to the Ford Lightning extended range battery which offers an estimated range of 320 miles, and the Rivian R1T offers with a Standard+ pack with an estimated 315 miles of range.
One unique feature that we have seen on the Hummer EV is 4-wheel steer, a feature offered standard, making it more nimble to drive, tight turning circle.
The RST offers up to 10,000 lbs. of towing capability and 1,300 lbs. of payload. Chevrolets exclusive Midgate allows some of the rear seating to remain usable, but passengers will be sitting next to whatever the long thing is that’s being hauled and exposed to the outdoors. The Multi-Flex Midgate that increases the pickup’s storage capacity when it’s dropped down. This increases the storage capacity from 5 feet 11 inches to 10 feet 10 inches.
Silverado EV First-Edition RST with an MSRP of $94,500
Competes with:
Ford F150 Lightning - https://youtu.be/ZjoUSzHb00U
Rivian R1T - https://youtu.be/CT-W5tj99Yk
Cybertruck - https://youtu.be/93ecx5JKyOU
There is so much more, watch the review and see for yourself.

What is The Impact Of Chinese Tariffs On Car Prices
The Biden administration announced significant tariff increases on China last week, targeting roughly $18 billion in strategic industries, with a sharp focus on electric vehicles (EVs). These tariffs, which quadruple to 100% on Chinese-made EVs, are designed to counter China’s unfair trade practices and overcapacity while boosting U.S. industries. The move also aims to strengthen President Biden’s lagging poll numbers heading into the November presidential election.
Increased costs to the #Chinese will also increase cost on all cars as many components and batteries are from #China. I'll explain.

Is The 2024 Toyota Highlander Hybrid The Top SUV Choice For Hybrids?
Is the 2024 Toyota Highlander Hybrid the BEST Hybrid SUV? The Highlander Hybrid effectively starts with the solid foundation of the regular Highlander and simply adds excellent fuel economy. It's adequately quick and nimble, and it loses no passenger or cargo space compared to the regular Highlander. Its third-row seat is small by midsize SUV standards, but that's one of few drawbacks.
New for 2024 is the Nightshade Edition styling package and a hands-free power lift gate now standard on XLE trim.

Dealership Use These Tricks to Make You Spend More!
How do dealerships tricks you to spend more? We show you the trick and how to respond. If you’re thinking of buying a car in 2024, try to hold off until July 30. That’s when the Federal Trade Commission’s new CARS rule goes into effect, which forces dealers to stop using shady tactics like peppering you with hidden fees, overcharging for silly extras like nitrogen in your tires, and luring you in with fake online prices.
Many dealers are honest and but how many will keep acting shady, even after the rules go into effect. I’ve seen car dealerships brazenly ignore consumer protection laws that are already in place. Which is why knowing these tricks can save you money.
The CARS rule will help bring some controls on overcharges that consumers pay and have no clue on how to escape them.
Here are the most common dealer ripoffs to look out for, and how to respond. Not every dealer will try such shenanigans, many of them are perfectly reasonable and easy to deal with, but some dealers will and it pays to be prepared!
To end on a positive note, the CARS rule is a massive win for car buyers, and many dealerships didn’t need it in the first place. But there are also dealerships out there that will try one of these sneaky tactics when you're shopping for your next car.
But if you go in confident and prepared, you're more likely to walk away with the car you want at a price you can afford. Share this advice and help others.

Confused About Buying vs Leasing? Watch This!
Are you confused about buying vs leasing? Then you need to watch this! Buying or leasing a vehicle can get confusing, knowing the facts will tell you which is the better option? The truth is that there are two aspects to this decision.
If you’re in the market for a new car, you may be debating whether to buy or lease. The choice between buying and leasing has often been a tough call.
On one hand, buying involves higher monthly costs, but you own something in the end. On the other, a lease has lower monthly payments, but you get into a cycle where you never stop paying for a vehicle.
Choosing whether to buy or lease a car is a serious financial decision. Research terms, compare payments, and calculate how much you'll pay in each option over the term of the loan or lease. Always negotiate the price first whether you opt to buy or lease a vehicle.
And Never Pay Retail.

The Big Electric Car Fail: Why They Aren't Winning More Buyers
Why Aren’t More Car Buyers Going Electric? While the EV market has grown in 2023, sales aren't rising as fast as expected, even with new model launches and price cuts and generous tax credits lowering costs for buyers. Automakers are taking notice and acting accordingly.
Automakers are being forced to lower their EV prices to attract customers and compete with Tesla. But this approach is especially painful because they're already losing money on their EV investments.
Why aren't people buying EVs:
EVs are too expensive: Joseph McCabe, president of AutoForecast Solutions, says vehicle cost is the No. 1 barrier to EV adoption. EVs usually cost at least $10,000 more than their comparable gas counterparts, he says.
Charging is expensive: If you can charge your EV at home, there are considerable fuel savings that come with going electric: You’d spend about 3x more on gas than the cost of home charging. However, the costs are about the same if you’re using a public charger, and getting fuel at a gas station is much more reliable and less time-consuming.
Charging is inconvenient: Fast chargers are still hard to find in many more remote parts of the country. According to AAA, 56% of people say the lack of convenient charging is a top reason for not going electric.
Depreciation: The average used EV price dropped nearly 20% in the past year, according to iSeeCars.com. Potential EV buyers have good reason to worry their cars won’t hold their value well as the technology improves. “The used market is not as strong for electric vehicles, and as a result the depreciation is higher,” says Greg Brannon, director of automotive engineering research at AAA. “That's your single biggest operating expense.”
Range anxiety: Some high-end EVs promise 300+ miles of range on a single charge, but even that is not enough to cover a common drive like San Francisco to Los Angeles. You’d have to take a charging break, potentially adding 30 minutes or an hour to an already long drive.
Hybrids are more popular: According to Adam Ragozzino, principal analyst, batteries and electric powertrains at Wards Intelligence, Tesla isn’t the best-selling electrified vehicle brand in the U.S. It’s Toyota, which has over 20 hybrid models and is focused on these cars in the near term, given that they offer good fuel efficiency and are capable of making long trips without requiring charging breaks. Hybrids are not only more practical and familiar to drivers than EVs, they also tend to be cheaper.
Auto experts are increasingly skeptical that the U.S. will be able meet a 2032 target essentially requiring 67% of new cars to be EVs. Right now, the current EV market share in the U.S. is just 7.9%, according to Cox. Automakers are already adjusting their own goals, and it's possible that more EV model launches will be delayed in the coming months.

Get Ready! USA And Germany To Implement Indefinite Weekend Driving Ban
Did you hear that a German minister threatened to have an ‘indefinite driving ban’ on weekends. This is no joke. I wish it was. The ruling coalition in Germany has been fighting over legislation that sets out binding climate targets. Could this happen in the US or other countries? It sure can, here’s how.
The German transport minister threatens to ban driving on weekends if it doesn’t meet their climate goals and the ruling coalition does not pass reforms to the Climate Protection Act by July. This sounds like extortion to me.
As governments make new laws and regulations leaders seem to not care about the impact to their citizens and what people want and need. Frequently these rules are enforced by non—elected officials, but even elected officials seem to be in lock step. How in the world is having a driving ban on weekends even a good idea.
Liberal politician Volker Wissing of Germany wrote in a letter to the parliamentary group leaders of the coalition that “A reduction in traffic is to help meet the climate goals would only be possible through measures that are difficult to communicate to the public, such as “comprehensive and indefinite driving bans on Saturdays and Sundays,” Wissing stated.
The federal coalition government, made up of the center-left Social Democrats, the Greens and the liberal Free Democrats, has been at odds for months over many issues.
The planned amendment to the emissions-reduction law allows climate goals to be reviewed for compliance. If the overall target is missed two years in a row, then the German federal government is to decide in which sector and with which measures the permitted total amount of carbon dioxide emissions is to be achieved by 2030. Translated - driving bans on weekends starting in 2030! This is not a joke.
As environmental organizations; including Greenpeace, the German Federation for the Environment and Nature Conservation BUND, and Fridays for Future, push the German government to meet their climate goals, they are now targets peoples driving freedom and want to restrict their ability to travel and their freedom.
"This claim is simply wrong," Green parliamentary group leader Julia Verlinden told the German Press Agency, referring to Wissing's threat of a weekend driving ban. She added that Wissing should not aggravate people unnecessarily because there are other ways to tackle climate issues, such as a speed limit. Germany has the Autobahn which is a highway with no speed limits in certain areas of Germany.
“Wissing has wasted two years blocking every climate protection measure in road traffic — now he is coming up with horror scenarios so that he won't have to do anything in the future either," said Verlinden.
What about here in the USA, the U.S. Constitution ensures the “right to travel,” but during the coronavirus pandemic, state and local officials are increasingly told drivers to stay home. Essentially banning the ability to drive. As stay-at-home orders spread across the United States, a number of states had moved to restrict the arrival of nonresidents to certain states and make sure that they quarantine for 14 days. Governors in some states including Rhode Island, Florida and Texas implemented interstate travel restrictions, including stopping some drivers coming from out of state at the border to remind them of the quarantine requirement.
If the government calls for a climate emergency, could the US government ban us all from driving on certain days, on the weekend or for as long as they want? Let’s hope not.

Exposing Collusion Between Big Government, Big Labor, And Volkswagen's Unionization Efforts
How Big Government and Big Labor Colluded to Get VW to Unionize and why Volkswagen employees are likely to regret it. Workers are free to choose to unionize, not so free to decertify.
Volkswagen workers’ vote for United Auto Workers representation last week was driven by the union’s promise of the same rich $108,000 annual pay package (equivalent to a Silicon Valley software developer’s income) that the union won for Detroit Three blue-collar workers last fall.
But VW’s surrender to the highly partisan UAW labor union played a factor as well. The truth will surprise you.
In a not-so-subtle threat to all 13 nonunion auto companies being targeted by the UAW, 33 Democratic Party senators sent a letter earlier this year demanding that they remain neutral in the union’s campaign.
This is audio from the Total Car Score Podcast
Lauren Fix co-hosts with Javier Mota and Karl Brauer
Today we interview Henry Payne, writer at
The Detroit News, renowned automotive journalist, racer
and cartoonist about the UAW and the important
pieces behind the pay negotiations no one is
talking about.

States Sue to BLOCK US Regulations on Vehicle Emissions
States sue to block US rules curbing tailpipe emissions in cars, light trucks. Multiple states are not pleased with the federal government forcing new regulations on Americans. The Environmental Protection Agency is receiving more pushback for its emission rules for passenger vehicles that will go into effect in 2026. Republican attorney generals in 25 states are suing the EPA to block these rules from going into effect.
The lawsuit claims the rules will threaten the economy, cause job losses, raise vehicle prices, and put the electrical grid at risk. The EPA already scaled back its original proposal after resistance from the auto industry and the UAW. The original proposal cut tailpipe emissions by 56% before 2032 compared to original request of 2026. After much push back it was then reduced to 49% in the final rule. These attorney generals say the rule is legally flawed and is forcing automakers to meet the mandate to go all electric even though consumers are pushing back and sales have dropped off dramatically.
After resistance by auto workers and the auto industry, the final version of the regulations was scaled back compared to an earlier proposal in order to give automakers more flexibility in meeting the emissions reduction goals. The EPA gave automakers more freedom to meet emissions standards with gas-electric hybrids, which many environmentalists have opposed as a half-measure that delays the EV transition.
The EPA denies that and says there is “absolutely no mandate” for automakers to adopt EVs. Because this is an election year, there will be more fights like this since EVs have now become politicized.
These attorney generals stated that the rules amount to an attempt by the administration to transform the American passenger vehicle market improperly through strict rules that make it difficult for manufacturers to not go electric.
Kentucky Attorney General Russell Coleman said the rules would harm the American economy, threaten jobs and raise prices while undermining the U.S. electricity grid. Coleman also said there is very little consumer interest in electric vehicles in his state.
West Virginia Attorney General Patrick Morrisey called the rules "legally flawed and unrealistic, to say the least."
Other states that joined the suit included: Alabama, Alaska, Arkansas, Florida, Georgia, Idaho, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Louisiana, Mississippi, Missouri, Montana, Nebraska, New Hampshire, North Dakota, Ohio, Oklahoma, South Carolina, South Dakota, Utah, Virginia and Wyoming.
Of course, the EPA declined to comment.
The EPA has forecast that between 35% and 56% of new vehicles sold between 2030 and 2032 would be electric under the rules – a range that reflected the flexibility the agency has said automakers have to pursue different pollution-cutting technologies.
States are forced into legal action against the government as more aggressive mandates put their states at risk for lost jobs, negative economic impacts to the state and its residents. An aggressive government that forces its citizens to buy something that they can’t afford by an unelected regulatory agency that makes arbitrary laws is a major issue that needs to be handled in the courts.

Discover the 2025 Kia Carnival: Game-changer, Not Your Average Minivan
The 2025 KIA Carnival MPV or Minivan has been redefined. The new 2025 Carnival MPV offers a turbocharged hybrid powertrain, a refreshed design, and advanced driver-assistance features.
The Carnival's SUV-like styling cleverly disguises its minivan-ness, which makes it cool enough to pass the suburban-family test. Minivans are without a doubt the most practical family vehicles on the road today.
The 2025 model receives updates to its grille, headlamps, taillamps, wheels, and lower body panels that look inspired by the company's new EV9 electric three-row crossover. Inside, the center console has been revised slightly and the climate control panel is now separate and mounted on the dashboard rather than part of the console itself. The infotainment system has been upgraded to Kia's latest interface, which now includes a more robust voice assistant which can perform more tasks than before. A new lane-centering feature is available and couples with the Carnival's adaptive cruise control system to better keep the van on track when traveling on the highway.

Tesla's Performance Falls Short: What Went Wrong? Why is the Stock Up?
Tesla 1st quarter of 2024 earnings show its market value has lost money in 2024. Shares are down 40%. Tesla Q1 net income drops 55% to $1.1 billion; revenue slides 9% to $21.3 billion.Tesla reported an 8.5% fall in Q1 deliveries — its first decline since the second quarter of 2020. Tesla has relentless cuts to its sticker prices which is not helping the bottom line.
New Tesla Model 3 Performance was announced, and boasts more than 500 horsepower and a claimed 0-60 mph time of 2.9 seconds. Additional enhancements include sport seats, upgraded brakes, adaptive dampers and carbon-fiber bits. It's available to order now, with deliveries starting next month.
Overall, Tesla fell far short of expectations in its eagerly awaited earnings report Tuesday afternoon, but its stock rallied considerably as the company emphasized its pathway to sustainable growth. After hours showed an almost $20/share increase, investors like what Elon Musk had to say.
Tesla claims it will have a low-cost vehicle, whatever that means, in late 2025. Also discussion on the Robotaxi which will be shown August 8, but no other update on timing.
The limping Tesla reported its first-quarter vehicle deliveries earlier this month, coming in far below expectations as the company grapples with demand issues for electric vehicles globally, especially in China.

Prepare For A Wave Of Car Repossessions - Financial Crisis Alert!
A growing number of drivers are falling behind on their car payments, car repossessions are also on the rise and financial analysts fear will continue, it is a sign reflective of soaring car prices and prolonged inflation having an effect on household budgets.
In recent months, the number of people behind on their car payments has been approaching new levels, and for the lowest-income consumers, the rate of loan defaults is now exceeding where it was in 2019, according to data from ratings agency Fitch.
Industry analysts worry the trend is only going to continue into 2024 with economists expecting unemployment to rise, inflation to remain relatively high, and household savings set to dwindle. At the same time, a growing number of consumers are having to stretch their budgets to afford a vehicle. The average monthly payment for a new car is up 26% since 2019 to $718 a month, and nearly one in six new car buyers are spending more than $1,000 a month on vehicles. Other costs associated with owning a car have also shot up, like insurance, gas and repairs.
These repossessions are occurring on people who could afford that $500 or $600 a month payment two years ago, but now everything else in their life is more expensive,” per Edmunds. “That’s where we’re starting to see the repossessions happen because it’s just everything else starting to pin you down.”
Getting your car repossessed is one of the most frustrating things to deal with as a driver. This typically happens when you default on your loan and stop making the payments. Once your car is repossessed, the lender will typically sell it at auction to recoup their money.
While it can be a tedious process, it's possible to get your vehicle back after a repossession. Just remember that you must act quickly. In this article, we'll explain how you can get your car back after a repossession so you don't lose the car you love or need.
The simplest way to get your repossessed vehicle back is to pay off the outstanding balance. Car repossession happens when you default on the loan, so you can get the car back by reinstating the loan.
Before you reach out to the repossession company, learn about the state laws around reclaiming items from a repossession company. It's not uncommon for these repossession companies to charge "storage fees" before they'll allow you to get your personal property back. In some cases, this is illegal, so make sure they're abiding by your state's regulations.
If any of your items have sustained damage, it's on the repossession company to cover the cost of it. In addition to items inside the vehicle, this includes property damage that occurred during the repossession process. For example, if the repo agent damaged your mailbox or garage door in the process of taking your vehicle, they are responsible for the cost of repairs.
The easiest way to deal with repossession is to prevent it from happening in the first place. Being proactive is the best way to keep your vehicle firmly in your possession and avoid hurting your credit.
If you're having trouble making your loan payments, reach out to your lender to see what kind of options they're willing to offer. Sometimes, lenders will give you a relief period to get your finances in order before having to make a car payment again. They might even modify your loan terms and put you on a new payment plan to better suit your current financial situation.
