The pickup tarriff which protects the domestic ICE mfrs most profitable products, which increasingly is what they make

Time to revisit - prices are good so hopefully quality will match.

South facing front door is a deal breaker for Indian buyers but east facing is fine - Asians and South Asians want to stay inside with AC comfort so west facing backyard is mostly a concern for non-Asian buyers who would use the backyard .

Easy - Tesla makes the best pure EV. They have the best sw enggs and material scientists and SCs are ubiquitous. And FSD is crack.

Fascinating market reaction but makes sense as there is no way they can deliver those with the same profit levels or exclusivity as their ICE machines

Did you grow up getting bused across town with jr gangsters like something out of a Snoop song -“2 braids in my hair n******, khaki suits and corduroy slippers “ - that line reminded me of my 5th grade school bus denizens in the late 70s. Got mugged by gangsters walking home - ripped off my 22K...

Sure sounds like it which is what matters

How many nice El’s though? El Sereno, El Monte, what else? ET was the cheaper option next to MV back in the day so that name change made a lot of sense. A USC gf who went to Capo told me back then ETHS was the “poor”’school. Being from Pasadena I had no clue but I knew El Toro sounded cheaper...

The name change from El Toro to Lake Forest back in the 80s was strategic genius on the part of city leaders - it would be at least $100/sq ft cheaper with the Mexican name

In late 70//early 80s we used to visit a friends house in Cerritos for a 4th of July block party in the tract by the park next to Whitney HS and it was ALL Indian - back then Cerritos was known as little India. They must have moved to Irvine as Indians want to live around other Indians (but not...
