This is not justice, not yet. The officers claimed this happened after 11
but the bystanders say it happened before 11. At that point, it throws
into question every other claim that these officers made.
On facebook it's more clear that racism may have been a factor.

I was wondering about this. Glad you found the article, Bruce.
Maybe it's just as well not to have a bunch of compliance cars on the
market, here. The real ones will come along as the EV market and
technology progresses.

The Leafs seem to be the most reliable as a population, at least I
haven't run across information to the contrary yet, while the i3, e-Golf
and 500e have some teething pains, the FFE has SSN events.
Is there any website with data on reliability for all/most of the
electrics ?

You're right, not likely to happen.
But the auto bailout had more to do with its timing and the likely impact on
jobs and the economy than anything else...think dominos.
If you do think of anything, let me know. Seriously.

If they made a car that fit my needs better than anyone else, I wouldn't care.

Might be worth checking out the lease options. I'm leasing a Smart ED
for $124/mo with $250 down. A Smart's not the best freeway car but it's
great around town. I've seen deals on Leafs for under $250/month.

Thanks, but I don't think a lease is likely to be especially desirable. It's
that fixed income Social Security bit...an extra triple digits per month
would be a disturbingly large fraction of their budget.
That's part of the reason why I think an EV would be ideal, if a suitable model

I don't follow your reasoning. There are reasons not to like a lease
but the fixed income aspect is not usually one of them. In fact, often
it's the opposite: people on fixed incomes like leases because they are
predictable and the payments are (usually) lower than loan-to-buy
payments.

Presumably more choices will mean more cars. One size never fits all.
My guess is that most ZEV owners (and many ICE owners) have a 2nd vehicle that
is not a ZEV unless their lifestyle, tastes and habits match their ZEV
perfectly.
Compliance cars are frequently no less perfect for someone's
Here are some links regarding LEAF batteries, warranties and replacement:

I don't get this.
Why on earth would anyone want any less ZEVs out there, no matter why they are
there?
We need as many ZEVs out there as we can get, as quickly as possible.

That's assuming that more choices == more sales. I don't know if that's
true or not for this market. There are plenty of EVs for sale in Wash.
and I certainly want to see their sales increase. Ideally speaking, I'd
rather see real cars rather than compliance cars. Just an emotional
