Toyota Just Killed the Future of Electric Cars
Rev up your engines well Toyota’s chairman AIO Toyota is predicting that EVS will only reach a 30% share now I kind of agree with them there but I think it’s going to be even less than 30% at least in the United States maybe worldwide possibly could be especially places like China
Where communist government can force people to or Europe where they’re always bullying people around with laws and making them pay taxes up the woo right I can’t ever see it reaching 30% in the United States because they just don’t have the range they cost too much money
Nobody knows how to fix them you try to find a good mechanic these days to fix a regular car there’s like 160,000 mechanics that are needed and they claim it’ll be probably twice that in the next six seven years because it’s a low paying job low status job nobody wants
To do it right cars getting more complex but the the people that work on them they’re not getting the cream of the crop so they need more intelligent people to fix the more intelligent cars and it’s not happening well you can quadruple that when it comes to electronics try to find a good
Electrician it’s even harder to find than a good mechanic right so when the cars if they all became electric you really wouldn’t be able to be it’ll be like throw it away oh well your electric car broke okay buy another one it’s broken now right I got to agree with the
Kio Toyota on this one except that I think it’s going to be even less than a 30% share people just aren’t going to accept the nonsense that comes with electric cars you live for your car plug it in make sure it’s warmed up do this that and everything else Americans want
Convenience they want it now and they want something that’ll last a reasonable amount of time without having to spend a fortune fixing it all of which is the exact opposite of battery electric cars well V the online used car sales place has gone kapoot their vom in is no
Longer voming down the road another car salesman online company is gone out of of business they’re not doing Automotive eCommerce anymore everybody jumps on the bandwagon you know oh we’re going to sell cars online they don’t understand the tremendous hassle it is selling used cars being sued by people who get ripped
Off I’ll give you a kind of a comparable years ago the big auto part store Auto Zone right they were selling junkyard parts at the auto part stores they had a relationship with I guess a bunch of junkyards right well that didn’t last very long especially in Texas when I was
There because point of buying parts from a junkyard is you’re trying to save money you don’t even know that stuff’s going to work right and then when you got another middleman AutoZone just getting them from the junkyard bringing them to the AutoZone store and then selling to you it was such a headache
They had so many problems with returns things not fitting right that AutoZone gave up with the idea right to me for an individual it’s kind of the same idea buying a used car online right they’re almost all middlemen either they bought cars really cheap or they’re selling
Them for somebody else and they’re the middleman and they try like you can see here the same old crap oh they deliver it to your house and oh there it is it sounds convenient I’ll tell you the truth buying a used car is not a convenient experience it can be a royal
Pain in the butt now you can save an awful lot of money I’ve always bought used cars myself but it’s not you push a butt and the great used car comes and Away you go it doesn’t work that way you got to get the down to dirty you got to
Fire a mechanic like me to check it out before you buy right most of these places they never even allowed people to have their mechanic check it out till later well you bought it now you can have the mechanic check it out well it’s too late then right and they have
Warranty policies that all kinds of disclaimers a lot of more like well don’t worry if you didn’t like that one yeah they don’t give you your money back they give you credit for buying another one at their store a lot of them right so vom vroom went bye bye and I’m happy
I hope they all go out cuz it’s a stupid way to buy used cars it’s very dangerous for the consumer you don’t get your mechanic to check it out before you buy and these Mega online places to buy and sell cars there was too much room for corruption and problems people not
Getting the right title for the car it’s just something where you really want to do it in person not spting on your phone and buying a car that way it’s not a smart thing to do overall especially for the consumer well watch out if you own
Or are driving behind a 2011 to 2019 Ford Explorer because they’re recalling 2 million of them cuz the trim pieces might fly off now when you’re driving your own car generally it’s not a problem for you but the people behind you especially if I’m following you on
My motorcycle I don’t want pieces of trim come flying at me to hit me right it turns out that they’ve already had 14,300 warranty claims for missing their pill trim parts are relatively big right you wouldn’t want to get hit by one when you’re driving down a road road yet
Again Ford Motor Company leading the nation in recalled Vehicles they have the last three years in a row they’re probably going to continue with stuff like this you know their quality just isn’t there I’ll tell you one thing if I see one of these explorers in front of
Me I’m going to either pass them or I’m going to slow down so I’m way behind them worried that pieces are going to fly off and smash into my car and find a motorcycle I’m going to stay really far away from them right man you can’t even
Glue the parts on right anymore these are just trim Parts how hard is it to put trim parts on a car so they don’t fall off Tesla shares plunged and wiped out $73 billion in market value back they had a bad earnings go see the problem is everybody in the stock market
It’s always kind of Buy on rumor and sell on fact right so in the past the rumors the electric cars they’re the future blah blah blah blah blah blah blah right well the facts coming out that hey maybe they aren’t the future you better sell these things as fast as
You can well just by some bad news about what they said their earnings were in one day it shed $73 billion do in value they go down a lot faster than they go up right people are starting to realize that this isn’t the future expensive electric cars there’s no charging
Infrastructure let’s take the United States government they’ve thrown out something like three billion dollars to build charging stations and as of a few months ago they built none and as of present day I think they built two charging stations with that $3 billion right and you know if the government’s
Going do it they’re going to do it wrong it’ll get broken nobody will fix it right now that electric cars are coming to roost and they’ve been out a little while talk to people who’ve actually owned one and they say you know that thing broke down all the time and when I
Had to get it fixed it cost a fortune I had to wait months and other people found out they get in a wreck there’s no spare parts for them you’re waiting months to get your car fixed or in the the case of my neighbor in Rhode Island
His friend hit a curb with his Tesla it totaled the car because it broke the front motor which was bad enough but then it hit the bottom and it dented the battery and once the battery’s damaged okay there’s 20 something Grand so they total the car beautiful looking car oh
He had like 20,000 Mi on him and it was the end of the car was total so then he’s got to go buy another car and his investment was down the toilet what he paid for it he lost you know $115,000 right there just by getting in a wreck
Cuz they’re not going to fix it they said oh it’s too much damage because the electric battery was damaged and the electric batteries on all those electric cars on the bottom of the car so you get in a wreck guess what that’s the first thing that gets crunched if it hits
Anything and then it’s goodbye car well here’s some information I’m going to tell you to use with a little grain of salt GM beats Wall Street estimates forecast continued strong profit in 2024 now the funny thing is they say beats Wall Street estimates as if Wall Street
Is a real thing Wall Street is a street they’re referring to analysts on the stock market right well let me tell you something I’ve learned for being on this planet for 70 years and that is this don’t believe anything that any of these stock market dudes tell you they just
Want you to put your money in the stock market CU that’s how they make money right and they’re saying GM oh it’s strong it’s going to do great in the future GM is a company that’s made so many mistakes it it make your head spin they pushed all their money into
Electric cars and now they’re finding out nobody wants to buy them right I would never take information like this and use it for investing money because I’ll give you a perfect example for a while they were touting Tesla right the other day Thursday at least when this
Video was filmed right Tesla lost $80 billion in market value that’s 80 billion dollar disappeared because of the news of what’s going on in Tesla right well these same stock guys were pushing Tesla like mad in the past right they don’t guarantee anything they just want you to throw money in the stock
Market cuz that’s how they make a living you can’t listen to what these people say they want you to invest money in the stock market right so they start telling you oh GM’s doing great they’re going to do great in the future that is a bunch
Of horse manure the company is in all kinds of trouble and they’re basing this on data that was given by GM now one thing I learned don’t ever listen to data that companies give you out cuz they’re just like the federal government what is the federal government do they
Get these giant deficits and then they’re like well we can’t make it balanced so let’s move this stuff over into four years from now so it’ll look like this year isn’t all that bad right they hide everything and these companies are the same way so anybody that’s
Saying oh wow Wall Street says GM’s going to do great in 2024 what the heck does Wall Street know about the car business they don’t know anything and that’s part of the problem of these car corporations they got guys in there running it they have very little experience with Automotive they hire
Them from other companies that gu great salesman oh they’re great designers right but they don’t know anything about cars and now they’re running a car compan it’s no wonder they’re in such a mess and if you ask any honest mechanic any of them they’ll tell you that Americans have all kinds of problems
Building cars and trucks and SUVs these days look at Ford they lead the nation in recalls the last three years and it looks like this year they probably do the same thing they certainly don’t seem to have turned anything around right so don’t listen to these Wall Street Boys
Throw your money in these companies because most of it is just a bu bunch of nonsense well I got bad news and good news here’s our new kitty there she is unfortunately our old cat Lucy passed away so we had to rush out and get a new
Kitten which we went to Kentucky if anybody wants kittens or cats I got tons of Christian County Animal Shelter Hopkinsville Kentucky he’s climbing behind me now so as the say goes if one of your pets passes away the only way you can get by it is get another one
Really quickly before you go totally insane and she wants to explore everywhere so I get open the closet door for and of course when you open the door for cat it immediately turns around and goes in the opposite direction that’s what I like cats they’re contrarians
Just like me they don’t follow the crowd they pretty much do what they want but they’re very curious just like me even though I’m old it’s a good thing I last longer than cats do or I couldn’t give you advice for very much longer so if you never want to miss
