There is always a reason, in this case it is fear-mongering and control. If you make people scared you can control them. "If you don't do what I say the bad homo's will get your children!!!"

First thing I thought.when I read the article.

You lost all credibility there, companies prove themselves "above the law" everyday...

Interesting take, sound awfully self serving though :P

While this is nice for low customers. This is nothing but a feel good distraction, from the data caps. Which is the real issue and will make them millions...

You misunderstand what they are saying. They don't want to create another email linked to their original account. They want to create a brand NEW account completely separate from any other accounts.

"but just like I cannot get my money back on a car model that got canceled,"

This is a little different, your doesn't stop being a car. You can also get 3rd party parts to keep it running as a car.

This is more like the day the model got canceled they flipped a switch and your car would no longer start or move again on its own. Sure you still look at it in your driveway, even go sit in it. but would that be fair?

This is true with a lot of products actually. It's cheaper them with full functionality then "remove" it for low end models. Especially when dealing with anything electronic.

Exactly, I expect there to be a bunch of "new" charges, once US gets their hands on him.

Are you fucking stupid???? I normally don't call people out, but WTF. Yeah you may have ONE rough take off or ONE stall... But you forgot how to use a clutch and stall dozen times???

What in sam hell is wrong with you? give up you driver's license and you public transportation. For all our sakes...

I'm pretty sure, this is how Apple killed the Mac the first time... History repeats itself?

Yes, especially when the choice is laws or Madmax, because that's what you get without laws.

Agreed

This wouldn't happen if companies...
Paid their employees a proper wage
Didn't over work employees
Didn't fire them on a whim

The current job market is giving employees some power as they are no longer disposable. Companies are still treating employees as if they were. Ergo employees are rightfully shitting on them.

My concern, would be where is the battery going to go? How is the weight going to be handled?

Batteries are a LOT heavier then a combustion engine.

How is that extra weight going to be handled?

  Will you need to beef up the suspension?

What about front to rear distribution?

This "conversion" could totally destroy the handling
