We've tried nothing and we're all out of ideas!

Meanwhile, my Hybrid Maverick is backordered so long, they're asking people to switch to the gas only engine. But hey, this stuff doesn't sell.

Here's an idea, instead of only selling $80k+ EVs, sell some $25k ones.

Well, yes. We should make them as good as we can. I just don't feel cars are the only mode we should make as good as we can. Right now, it feels like we're only starting to consider cars may not always need to be the "default".

Going all in on cars is what leads to these kinds of "nothing-towns". It's like they're made for people to drive through, but not necessarily for people to exist in.
