This type of car is going extinct in 2023.

It is the end of the road for mainstream rear-wheel-drive, four-door internal combustion engine cars. Kia has announced it will end production of the Stinger next year and is sending it out with a run of 1,000 Tribute Edition cars, with 400 earmarked for the U.S. It will be joined in the history books with the Dodge Charger, which is being replaced in 2024 by the all-electric Daytona Charger SRT coupe. Ford, Chevrolet and the non-luxury Japanese brands all stopped selling this type of car years ago as they transitioned to front-wheel-drive and SUV-focused lineups.

BMW produces RWD for sure.

One of the reasons I convinced my wife to choose over honda and toyota FWD.

be for us to sell our property and move into town close to our doctor and a grocery store. I think that is what the Global leaders want.
Think Project 21 For the globullists that is our future.

We’re in the EV fad phase. Once its challenges become more “common knowledge”, and they will, all these state “EV ONLY” mandates will melt into the wind, if it means voting out the nincompoops that created them.

I expect ICE vehicles co come back with a vengeance in the next five years or so, whether the deep state likes it or not.

Probably we all should have followed their life path. We’d be so much better off in every segment of society.

I’ve heard that, too. I haven’t talked to any of them about it; teams of guys used to construct and recover my 6 massive 30’x90’ greenhouses, every 3yrs.

We’ll be importing cheap, RWD, CCP-Chinese cars within a decade.

This extortion to force people into electric cars or public transportation is all about inhibiting Americans from moving about freely. No more vacations or trips to see Grandma at Thanksgiving when you have to stop and recharge the battery every couple hundred miles.

The world has been gripped by an insane climate change mania. More atmospheric CO2 is beneficial, but very few people any longer care about facts.

I never understood why Hybrids were never marketed better. They give the best of the electric with the reliability of an ICE powertrain. It would reduce pollution and be usable. I have never bought into the whole NWO, secret cabal, UN agenda stuff. It is more about who has money invested where. That is the drive to force electric.

I’ve been saying for 2yrs, that like 1895-1915, EVs were just a fad, and easily eclipsed by steam and ICE vehicles. I predict that all this EV crap will be gone in 7-10yrs, with mfgrs losing TRILLIONS in assembly plants, inventory, parts etc.

I got a 2020 Ford Explorer specifically because Ford built it on the same frame as the reintroduced Ranger - it’s RWD with the option to engage the front wheels on demand. I really like this SUV.

CO2 is only 0.006% of the atmosphere. They could have chosen another gas -- like water vapor -- to blame everything on.

Nothing wrong with most of the rear-drive setups except for winter traction.

Translation: Doing donuts in the parking lot.

I plan to start buying up 25-30mpg gas powered cars, small trucks, small SUVs.
