I can live in a van, by the river, and work at Am. It all works out in the end.

That cannot be right. That’s more than my car weighs.

Regardless, here (in Michigan) in the winter, you must run a defroster. That’s on top of the terrible things that cold does to batteries.

Who is geting the ‘tax credits’ etc from this deal?

Looks like a SOLYNDRA/Obama type deal...???

AMZN collects on both sides of the transaction!!!

Better look again.

Ford in for $500 MILLION

AMZN in for $700 MILLION plus

Cox Automotive $350 MILLION

Unlike Solyndra, no gov backup.

That would be tons of air condition, a measurement of the AC output.

NOT THE WEIGHT OF YOUR CAR.
