I worked for a large window manufacturing company in the midwest. The executive department told department heads that they had to lay off a certain number of people by seniority. In the past it was always to lay off people by seniority throughout the whole plant and people would be farmed in to fill in those spots which was easier because people with the lower seniority didn't have the experience. But the way they did it was a huge disruption to the overall plant. It took 2 to 3 years of permanent overtime to build up enough experience to go back to regular production. The layoff what's up to 1800 employees many men who had years of experience and had to cash in any benefits and if they wanted to work their had to start over at minimum pay. Needless to say they could not find anyone that was willing to work there except immigrants from the cities Manny who did not understand our culture and our language. That was the result of Obama giving the company a certain amount of money for hiring immigrants. I was one of the many older employees that had to train them and found that many of them we're very good employees but a significant number of them didn't understand the concept of being to work on time and getting back to work after breaks. Another thing that I feel impacted the production was that many of them were Muslims and decided that they must take time to pray which would shut down the lines for a short period of time. Personally it didn't bother me but I did talk to one of them and asked him why he did not pray and he said he chose to do it after work. So it sounds to me like a personal decision which I feel many of them took advantage of the company. Although I did not let it bother me because I knew I would soon be retiring there were many many older employees who were both white and Hispanic that were not happy. This was a company that became disconnected from its employees. Excuse the spelling and punctuation. It is Google voice typing because I cannot type with my arthritis.

I once found out my catalytic converter was clog up on my 1982 VW Vanagon. I did not have money for a new one and obviously the junk yard would not sell me a use one. Upon removing the converter, I discovered that with a wood chisel I could reach in and shave off enough of the clogged converter to make it “like new” as far as air flow goes. The catalytic convertor was the honeycomb ceramic type. It took a while, but I got the majority of the front face of the converter cleaned off (about a half inch or so). It ran just fine after that, but it was still a gutless wonder with that air cooled boxer engine.

I own a model Y. I strongly recommend having level 2 charging installed if you want to go electric. (Meaning a charging station 240V). Your electric company may have rebates and off peak pricing so get that squared away ahead of time. If you’re just going to rely on supercharging it makes things a little more difficult and it’ll eat into your savings. The other thing is MAKE sure to check your insurance cost BEFORE purchase. Buying through Tesla makes it difficult because you won’t get the vin # right away before you put down a deposit. My insurance cost went up from 90 with my old car to 160 with the Tesla. Factor that into your math in terms of savings. It’s rare to not have increased insurance cost because minor accidents can be expensive.

There are parking lots of unsold Teslas surrounding the plant. The quality of the cars is terrible. It is a novelty. You can’t drive it in rural areas due to no place to charge. The range in the mountains is 100 miles maybe, no place to charge. You can’t buy parts except from them if they want you to. The people that fast charge them ruin the battery in 50-60k miles but you can only buy the battery pack from Tesla $20k. The depreciation in the first year is 40%. What a salesman.

Notice that they still lie about resale of EV's now talk about brainwashed. Some of them slip up with media coverage just after 24 months of ownership the EV falls to 45% of retail prices. Later on in the videos they come back with a chart showing 55% off the EV after 5 years. After 48 months EV's resale is 95% of the total value you paid $90,000.00 for the EV now after 60 months its worth retail $8,500.00 black book is $4,000.00 because the battery is $12,500 but we no longer carry this next generation is $16.500.00 plus $3,000.00 in programming and do you want the upgrade, that is another $1,300.00 or we can give sell you a new EV for $25,000.00 off last years model, you interested?

This doesn´t make any sense. 1. Using 7x the amount of electric power to produce synthetic fuel instead of charging batteries directly does not make any sense at all. 2. You can rather grow Bio-ethanol and use that instead for cheaper, especially with all the switchgras in the US.

@@sierraecho884 Actually makes perfect sense. First wouldn't require to replace all cars on the road for EVs. Second, the Country adopting this strategy would need to rely on foreign countries for their fuel production. Third, it would convert the infrastructure already in place for fuel delivery. Fourth, no need for intensive mining for battery production or relying in countries such as China, controlling supply chains.

@@sierraecho884 completely false. Tesla doesn't build cars in house. They also rely on supply chains. Plenty of cars on the roads with more than two decades. Which isn't easily at reach of most BEVs due to battery degradation. Behind the rush push towards BEVs, it' the strategy to lower Oil imports. And synthetic fuels have plenty of other industry sectors to be used besides the Automotive.

What do you mean it´s not at reach due to battery degradation ? Do you mean to say an EV´s battery doesn´t work after 10 years ? Synthetic fuels have zero use becasue they are at least double in price compared to oil hence it´s not used there isn´t even an infrastructure to produce any at scale whatsoever.

Put in quarter tank of gas - no point in overdoing it. Drive to a remote oocation, stop, pour all the gasoline in the garage gas tank over your GM vehicle and pour a thin trail some 50 yards from the vehicle.. Crouch on the ground and using your cigarete lighter, light the trail of gas to the vehicle. Will be a VERY satisfying whoomph when the trail gets to the vehicle. Hitch a ride back to town knowing that you have done an immeasurable service to Mankind.
