"Why would you guys buy a $35000 EV when you can buy a $60000 pickup truck that takes $200/week in gas?

Are Ontarians stupid? Get a job!"

Xpeng wanted to sell this in EU:

EU said nein unless they make them there. So they are now being made in Austria by MAGNA.

So a Canadian maker can make EVs for EU, but not for Canada. We only make trucks for fat fucks and muscle cars for Boomers.

That's crazy! The only part I disagree with is the using fat as an insult since there are plenty of other ways to poke fun at emotional support pickup trucks.

Fully agree - thank you for stating that.

See making stuff for germany is at least close because I know we would need to take our winters into consideration but if I would try to make a canada mobile it would be something like a 4/awd kia soul, not too big but effective
