For everyone on the edge of their seats
Rumor is
The new BEV Charger starts shipping to dealers in 4 weeks

doesn't seem to be much excitement and this review isn't good, in my opinion.

Some hilarious comments I've seen on the net ...

"Mustang sales are gonna skyrocket!"
"Wait 'till someone straight speakers it, it's gonna be mega loud!"

and my own ...

"This will make Hornet sales seem like they're flying off the lots!"

Personally I drive my toys on Sundays when the weather is nice
So I accumulate little mileage on anything except my daily driver
If I did want 1 it would be a bad idea knowing it will sit in my garage & die a fast expensive death

I m not interested in replacing a battery in 4, 6, 8, 10 years for 10, 20, 30K in a car that may have 3K miles

We enjoy going on road trips where we sometimes hit more than 600 miles in a day. This would never work for us.

It has a fake gear shift. Wonder if you can add a cackle to it?

It will be a part of the accessory clutch pedal when it's released next summer. The pedal resistance will be adjustable from 'blown' to 'Mac Truck' in addition to the amount of cackle. It will also make the car 'stall' (shut down) if not operated correctly.

nothing is different about the cars except the software. How long will it take to hack the system and "tune " it?

this time it will probably cry back to the mother computer to report the hack.
