Electric vehicle driving in the desert

[accountinquestion]

Stand up to hate Mr. V!

Yer damned right I will.

I post on one forum dumbass... I'm just pointing out - if you haven't realized that EVs are (and have been) highly politicized then you should spend less time on gambling forums.

Huh?

First, I freakin' HATE EV's and would never own one: bah, humbug.

Second, I've seen no news articles about this issue.

Third, I actually need to spend more time on gambling forums...unlike reading the news about America Today the trolling on gambling forums warms the cockles of my heart.

And finally, fourth, I did glean that the oaf is doing away with the EV tax credit: that led me to my suspicion, given Biden was in favor of it.

I suppose I blithely believed that MAGA probably embraced them as well since Trump's butt boy, Elon, made them.

Whatever, dude...you wanna dance?

Let's dance...

No one cares what you think about EVs just like no one cares what I think about EVs. I'll tell you about them but no one cares about my opinion.

I don't think I've seen a news article "on this issue" but it just seems kinda obvious to me and I guess I must have overestimated your general awaraeness.

Elon hasn't been known as MAGA until the past year. We've been talking about Teslas on here for years and you could readily tell. At least you're being forthright explaining your views however you still didn't admit to how many gambling forums you post on.

No, I don't want to dance. If this is some sort of tough troll talk then please leave me out weirdo.

[MisterV]

What does it matter as to how many gambling forums I post on?

I'm retired...I've all the time in the world.

I spend more time online viewing youtube and newsfeeds than I do gambling forums.

As for the reference to dancing: it was an invitation: you seem to want to make this "personal" and I was simply indicating my willingness to oblige, i.e. "Let's get ready to rumble."

No threats, no violence, just scorn, abuse, cheap shots and insults...that's the way we do it.

AQ proves he has no meaningful life more and more with every bitter post. That's exactly what those who have the need to tell normal folks what's "wrong" with them, do--especially when it's on an anemic forum. And just as kew does, when he creates his online life that he believes others marvel at--even while admitting to having no family or woman due to his oddball old man personality--he thinks he's impressing with a low-bar approach.

Angry....disappointment in life....no family....casino rat....EV crusader....online keyboard warrior....hater of successful people....ANTIFA by any other name.

[jdaewoo]

Why is this retard commenting in a thread about an event that he can't afford?

I kinda feel like i actually hurt your feelings in there but the truth needs to be pointed out.

I haven't created any life people marvel at except to say my gf is successful and last I knew wanted to marry me. lol. Yes, marvel at me, Rob.

People are funny. You supposedly had this successful life and didn't you once even say you worked for some secretive government agency? I can't recall. But all this - yes you still found a need to write a column in some free gambling rag. Then you wrote a book based on nonsensical math that was an attempt to gain respect. You've been caught in numerous lies on this forum along trying to gain respect.

It isn't me making up a life trying to impress people, buddy. That is all you. I know it sucks. It stings. But thats how it is...

Look, I'm sure you impressed some people over the course of your life. Realizse that because I don't care to beat you down repeatedly. I do have a strong sense of the truth and so I respond but I don't want to make some oold man look back over his life and wince in the psychological pain of being a loser in relation to his peers.

The only reason I even brought up my gf was as a response to your made up nonsense. The stuff I'm saying is all based on things you've publicly said or done. I don't say it to be mean. I don't saty it to hurt you. I would prefer it didn't. Your whole life has been a crusade to gain credilbility and on this little forum you've gained absolutely none. That is just a truthful statement. Nothing more.

Keep the chin up though. You often have some really funny ones. If you want to keep beating up on me, please do. We've seen how you relentlesly hound Kewl. Clearly there is some psychological need that has to be fulfilled. Maybe you hate him because he was far more widely believed for so long? I don't know. I really don't... but be happy Rob, be happy.

[MisterV]

...be happy Rob, be happy.

Have no fear on THAT score.

I've no doubt that Rob is in fact quite "happy."

As well he should be: let's break it down.

I am certain he worked overseas as I've seen proof of his former address in England.

In his earlier years he obviously loved playing VP, and he had his own ideas as to the best plays: perhaps for ego or fame he got into writing about it and people read it: which is more than most of us have accomplished, given few of us seek an audience wider than our immediate friends and family.

A key source of his joy has to be his trolling this and other gambling boards, purely for shits and giggles: I've no doubt that he correctly finds it to be "great sport," trying to pick off low-hanging fruit.

Yeah he's getting long in the tooth but that is to his credit: he's survived and seems healthy enough, what more is there to life other than simply living it on your own terms?

Sure, I've given him grief over the years...he expects it, it's an expected response to his shtick.

Your criticisms, while arguably apt, no doubt wash off of him like water off of a duck.

Awww, he needs someone to back him up.

I disagree that he is obviously happy. The way he goes after Kewl is something special, much like Mdawg. That sort of thing does not come from a person who underneath it all is a happy person. How often does Singer just post something that is neutral and not trying to tear down someone or some group? What happy person does that?

The weird thing is both Kewl and Singer have more in common than most of this board and that is elaborate stories to try and prove their pro-gambler bona-fides. It is funny how these types of people tend to turn on each other. It is like seeing a big bullshitter at a poker game and here comes another big bullshitter. They almost ALWAYS dislike each other because they're basically jealous of the attention the other gets. We see that a lot at play with Singer and Kewl but hey, mister V says Rob is a happy guy then sure.

I'll actually agree that he may be more or less happy in his day to day life but if he was half of what he said he was - he wouldn't go through the effort he does to destroy Kewl. I do sometihng similar so maybe I shouldn't even point this out but there is something different there. It isn't just shits and giggles with Singer. He is really out there to cause Kewl pain and repeatedly.

It is odd how you stick up for both of these guys. Kewl I can actually understand because he is pitiful in many ways? But Singer? nah. give him the UNDENIABLE TRUTH.

If my value system was aligned such that writing nonsense and getting attention from fools was an accomplishment then we would agree he accomplished something there.

Oh he worked in England! Oh wow! great... and you have proof. Lol. who cares. He had 50 years to do that. Lots of people have been given a chance to work overseas. But whatevers brah.

Singer is a master troll. He has been for decades. You obviously know that, yet you waste your time responding to him and about him. That says more about you than him. He's got you right where he wants you.

Lol. Okey dokey. The guy spent big parts of his life writing for a gambling rag to come off as an expert. He wrote a book with la aughingly interpretation of "math". I used to be on the fence on whether he is a purposeful clown like you seem to think or an old dying man desperate to somehow have a life with a bit of relevance. I'll go with the latter..

Me, myself, much like Singer have a sadistic side.

Some will laugh..some won't. But Kewl is an easy target for Rob and Rob is one for me.

This forum was better when mickey and rob were enemies instead of butt buddies.

One hundred fucking percent.

It is sad Mickey was bamboozled by his bullshit.

Nice pictures....but I'm enjoying watching another AQ meltdown over me even more! It's slightly more satisfying to see than the constant deserved mockings kew endures by being here. Kew's an admitted punching bag--and weak to the core, which he knows. AQ? This fool comes to the party wearing his newest and best, always trying to communicate anything but chumpiness. While kew knows about and resdily accepts the chocolate streaks, HE actually thinks his underware just came out of a new Sears 3-pack...each and every day. Of course, he has no one near to help him navigate thru all that confusion. And every minute he's on here, he marches to the beat of MY drum.

Maybe I'll call it --- SDS

Is a Sears 3 pack of underwear an antique unopened thing like baseball cards or does Singer go out of his way to shop at one of the 3 remaining Sears because he's too set in his ways to learn about Target?

Honestly this whole post is rather bizarre and bordering on nonsensical. One guy sides with Singer and Singer starts thumping his chest posting up deluded barely coherent nonsense.

Lord, do not let me succumb to such sad behavior in my latter days.

Amen.

The LAST thing a loner like you believes in is The Lord. Your life being in the toilet makes you a victim in desperate need of your safe space....right?

And my oh my....mickey--an AP whom you've met and respected--is an "easily bamboozled " one??

Severe SDS.

I missed all the EV talk.
Technically I've missed about 99% of the posts for the last 6 months or so.
Anyways, they are literally giving away the Ford Escape right now.
Personally, I would only buy the PHEV (Plug-In) version.
I can't believe how much I love the car.
It zips in and out of traffic all over town and after about a month, I'm still at 95% of my first tank of gas.
Sometimes I use it in Sport Mode just to feel the difference in power.
I got mine for 31k out the door and got the one without the power moon roof.
Rather have the more standard version and not worry about leaks or gremlins.
If you haggle more, I wouldn't doubt that you can get them to 30 or 29k.
Or if you play the MaxPen game and get more discount, with financing, only to pay it off 10 days later, with no penalty.
This car is for city driving though, and 30 miles average per session IMO.
Yes, it doesn't have an AWD option in the Plug-In version, but you don't need that for what it is.
And to be honest, FWD is cheaper, better and has less maintenance cost and or breaks down far less often.

Why didn't you get a Tesla?

I see Elon said he'd quit if Tesla shareholders didn't approve a pay package which could give him $1.1 Trillion dollars.

Tesla seems to no longer be the darling it once was, given the failure of the cyber truck and the lack of new innovation / ideas / product.
