Seems to me a lot of these buses were parked and not used due to various quality issues.

ahh yes, one of the articles I read a while back.

IF EVs can’t stand on their own, this is the type of thing
that should happen in the support industry.

We will probably see more of this.

The sooner the industry moves away from lithium the better.

The sooner they put more charging stations out there, the
better.

These are the two biggest downsides I can see right now.

I talk to people when I charge up. There are real problems
finding good charging stations with the chargers all
working.

So what happens, is they make first sales of EVs, and then
people have a hard time charging up.

Will they go back to a second EV? Maybe yes, maybe no.

Some undoubtedly will not return to and EV. I do expect
EVs to get better, and so there will still be an influx
of new EV buyers, but they will kill their market if they
don’t get more functional charging centers out there.

Musk was right on target when he built his own network of
chargers.

"If it moves, tax it. If it keeps moving, regulate it. And if it stops moving, subsidize it."

Bailout with subsidies, round two.

People give Elon Musk a hard time over Tesla’s subsidies. I don’t agree with the policy, but standing up a new car company is not an easy thing, EV or not. DeLorean, a seasoned exec at GM who once seemed headed for the corner office, failed to get his eponymous company off the ground, despite his signature car being iconic enough to be featured in Back to the Future, after the company’s dissolution. Musk, with zero background in the auto business, being able turn Tesla into viable car company, and the only US company with profitable EV operations is why US auto execs always seem overawed when asked about him.

I bet against Tesla repeatedly, and lost money doing it. I still think it’s overvalued. But to conserve capital, I’ve stopped betting against Musk. (Of course, this is probably the best sell signal anyone’s ever devised - when I stop shorting, it’s time to short).

TRANSLATION FROM HEARING IMPAIRED INTERPRETER: "Well, it is five minutes after five, which means it is time for a drink. I'll get tight, touch some girl's breasts, and maybe stroke her hair, but her father might yell at me and cut my hand off. Anyway, I don't have any idea who this Build Back Better company Proterra is."

Instead of exposing and chastising Biden the media will cover it up. They need to be stripped of all media reporting responsibility. Just like they just did to White House journalists. Worthless propagandists.

EVs are maybe good for short range within city limits.
