I do own a CityCOCO electric scooter. It is fine for going to the hardware store, or perhaps a couple of items at Target. But it is not something I can drive to the grocery store, and haul home 2 bags of $90 groceries! As I sorta ask, who is to blame?

God I hope this is Sarcasm....
Nothing wrong with good old capitalism. Funny how just a short time ago gas was cheap and inflation was none existent with no complaints about capitalism. Interest rates were as low as they have ever been and the stock market was rolling.
Hmmmmm
I believe in the late 70’s something similar happened.

I was there in the late 70' s , sitting in a LONG line to get gas with my dad , thinking "this sucks ! When I finally get MY ride I won't be able to afford or FIND gas!" it went away though, right before I got my first car... Pinto ,all glass hatchback... even survived a rear ender in it... didn't blow up er nuthin'...

Joe did that. He campaigned on ending oil and moving us to green energy and this is the result of his policies. The fundamental transformation of America is underway... border policy and driving up the cost of oil to end our dependency is just a start.

Exxon gave Joe 700k in 2020, Chevron gave him 1.4 million. They have more than made that back in profits in just Q1 from the price gouging based on a oil shortage hoax. They are using the war in Ukraine as an excuse to rip us off. Joe talks about transitioning to green energy, but it ain't gonna happen when he can make big bucks from oil companies. He just says it to get votes then does whatever is most profitable just like every other politician. We will suck every last drop of oil out of this Earth, there is too much money to be made to not.

wheel well liners??
the internet has your back.
be creative



That's the equivalent of me putting a flag over it to hide it ... retractable fender skirts is where I'd like to be , auto adjust to how much weight is in the bed , also , why don't we have built in bed scales ? Be nice to have that on my screen , should be standard on any ? ? ? ... isn't this the future ?
