Ford Transit 2019 sales: 153,868
Tesla 2019 sales: 367,500
Sorry O.P. Americans do want clean electric vehicles. Just wait until 2023, there's a LOT more electrics in the pipeline coming from virtually every automaker. The electric train has left the station...
Did you really just try to weigh one model sales against an entire subsidized company's sales of all models?
If you're going to compare the companies, do it right!

So Tesla is building 1000 cars/day supported by a $7500/$3500 tax credit. And many of those cars are ending up back on the marked mostly un-driven because their owners bought it for the tax credit and then immediately put it back on the market. It's a quick way to make $7500 IF they manage to sell the car at list or slightly lower.
So if one make fun of people with “puny” cars, is one implying they have a tiny...
Actually one of the funniest bumper stickers I've seen in a while had the outline of a lifted pickup with over sized tires and it said., 'Nice truck, sorry about the p*nis"
Because there are so many of those vehicles locally I have wondered how it wasn't getting keyed constantly
Maybe because the car was pink..
I do love people rolling around in 3/4 to one ton trucks with 5 or 6k of tires and wheels on them.
I especially like when they drive around like sports cars, guzzling gas. In CA gas tax is high so I just thank them for doing their part.

As usual you really seem to have no clue.
A new car loses 20% of it's value after being driven off the lot. The math doesn't work.

I'm a lefty, but I actually agree with OP on this one. But for me, it's not a pickup or SUV. My love is my V8 6 Speed Camaro SS, I don't want a car like that to ever not be available

There you go!
I have the Charger Scat Pack in B5 blue, similar speed cars... I do have more room in mine...both respectable performers though.
My goodness, look how macho I am in my big truck!!
So now you feel victimized by people who prefer small cars and might want to preserve the environment. We get it.
I am not easy on the accelerator in my 1968 Shelby GT 350 with a 351 Cleveland. Gets maybe 8 mpg and I don’t care. The roar of that engine is soul satisfying.
That's what struck me. OP is somehow threatened by what someone ELSE drives. I don't even get that. If you want a big-ass car, then buy one. Nobody is stopping you.
I will laugh my ass to sleep tonight with the thought that people like you think that everyone else is the snow-flake. Hahahahahahaha
Nah, OP is - IMHO - just an attention seeker. He takes the polar opposite of what reason and logic and advancement entails and throws it out there.
Then he sits back and feels good because attention is energy.....whether negative or positive.
Of course, there is a small chance he actually believes some of what he says. But in that case there has to be somewhere he is repeating it from (IMHO)...I mean, who wakes up in the morning and thinks "I'd like to waste money, pollute more and not fit into a parking space"??
