For the price I would expect a retractable hardtop. I don’t see many cross shopping between a z06 and this, maybe just a few, may as well go base C8 convert and really save. They only make a few...

Always nice to have a pickup around the house. You may get asked to help some family and friends now, as that comes with the territory of ownership of one.

I was going to say that the stock Blazer SS EV looks better.

Blazer SS EV $10k more compared to Model Y performance, that’s 20% more. Blazer made in Mexico compared to a model Y made in the USA. The Y cost less (value) and supports more USA jobs (patriotic),...

Ford EV’s up 61% but when you look at the actual number is only 24000 for the quarter and they are heavy discounting the product for a loss.
