Off road equipment and sand haulers going to the dock with on road exemptions do millions of dollars of damage in each county in this area. farm, sand and forestry, I’ve seen equipment driving overlapping the edge of the road on an old 2 way buckling the edge of the road as it went.

the science doesn’t agree with common sense, a road will disintegrate from old age before wearing out if it’s only cars on the road. this is why interstate freight should stay on trains, Amazon should be funding roads and the special interest pushing for high registration taxes on you and me...

It’s about $10,000 per person, how many folks couldn’t drive anymore?

A hybrid isn’t an EV and regardless of how much joy ma fair share gives you are illegal violating equal protection laws. Drivetrain and fuel economy are feigned differences that cannot be taxed. The Sierra Club has gotten them overturned in one state, let’s hope they do the rest. This is...

That’s probably back in style anyway

This is what Maverick buyers will likely think when attempting to take delivery of their 2024 PHEV in 5 years

Now that it’s “next year” when do you think the 2024 Maverick PHEV will release? https://www.torquenews.com/1083/one-change-2023-ford-maverick-owners-and-shoppers-want-most/amp https://topelectricsuv.com/news/ford/ford-maverick-hybrid/amp/

A Ford Authority notice points out of the 86,000 2023 Mavericks ordered, 73% (62,780) are Hybrids. The Hermosillo plant in Mexico has production capacity for Hybrids 35% (30,100).

Which explains the “Ford cancelled 100,000 hybrid orders” moniker from 4 months ago

What was the percentage of Mavericks produced that were hybrid?

If it’s the hottest vehicle in the country why does Ford produce so few?

In 2008 they kept building F150’s and a year later you could get them half price.

$5000 and I will drive it home, install 2 sealed beams, blinkers and a cow catcher done

Here is how GM does it, it’s a replaceable part so why use anything better than old tin cans?

I saw my first Maverick on the road pulling a camping trailer going about 80mph

So I have to find a bill from 5 years ago and black out my personal information? google used to list the range on the drop down for state demonstrating that some areas here do suck.

Depends on county and even city The title on hybrid/EV is 2.5x your registration so it’s a one time deal but if your local registration due to wheel taxes and other BS is $225 your title fee can be very high compared to the 2 digit fee on an old gas car One time deal but an average gas econobox...

3/5 of states already tax the crap out of plug ins and hybrids (a few even tax you for getting good fuel economy) even though only 11 has a statistically significant number of them on the road (See chart most states have statically ZERO plug ins and will notfor the foreseeable future) Hence...

Each county is different Title for a hybrid due to local taxes is $562.50 which is a lot of gas tax compared to the double digit fee paid for my old car. Why a hybrid that gets 20mpg is paying $500 extra in the first year for “gas taxes”is beyond rediculous. Not to mention non-plug ins paying...

My issue with Hybrids is that my state and local government tax the living $$$$ out of them. I own an antique hybrid that doesn’t even have an operating hybrid system, battery is disabled and I still have to pay an EV fine on the car despite the fact it has no hybrid system and never could plug...
