Hertz and EV

The CEO of Hertz has resigned. The problem is EVs. A few years ago they ordered 100,000 but only about 60,000 were delivered. At the present time they have about 20,000 for sale but there don't seem to be buyers. They want to sell these things because maintenance and repair is killing them. They want to get rid of all of them. Good luck.

Too bad we couldn't do that with the incandescent light bulb. Now I'm stuck trying unconventional styles of bulbs for the bathroom.
Lots of that Mr. Haney type stuff going on now days.
EV's, Solar, Windmills, global warming, made in China and on and on.
Consumers (people) and their money are the Guinea pigs.
Hertz and EV's
Experience is what you get when what you bought is not what you wanted.
especially if you are listening to politicians. (and the news media)
Selling off 20,000 electric cars will be a megahurts for Hertz
My brother has been a service manager with Nissan for 40 years. Last week he told me about a woman complaining about her EV only getting 50 miles to a charge. It called for a new battery that would cost $13,000 and $1,000 in labor to change. The car was a 10 year old Nissan leaf, which is a small compact car. My brother said she went ballistic.

very illuminating meme
That puts the subject in a different light.
JD and Austin, someone please demote them one star each. Grins.
Back when America was great, companies made products based upon what their customers want. Today, the government tells companies what they must make, and tells customers that they must buy them or else.
It amperes they've been volted down.
(Sorry)
That is a SHOCKING comment
This whole thread is reVOLTing!

Seems some folks get a big charge out of the topic
Yeah, some of us are just wired that way.

You just described Marxism perfectly.
I other words the government is saying: We will decide what’s best for you because your not capable of making decision on your own. Just trust us and don’t ask questions.
The whole electric car thing is very polarizing
That is a very negative comment! Can’t you be more positive? 😝😝
