Yes, I'm quite familiar. I'm neck-deep in the market every day.
That means China borrowed money and isn't going to pay it back.
That's good for China. Bad for us.
Only 5% of next car purchasers expect to buy all electric cars-Road and Track.

Americans are so silly and don't understand civilizational warfare.
China took our money, pretened to follow our norms and regulations, and is not going to pay a lot back.
Meanwhile, we destroyed our own manufacturing capacity and they don't need to innovate because they can steal it all.
We've been played for suckers at every turn. They are winning.
Borrowing money and defaulting isn't a failure. That's winning. It's the lender who is screwed.

What are you talking about. You have no idea..China years ago bought all of our junk bonds. I believe it was by the billions. Do some research.

Let me talk to you like a toddler for a second:
They borrowed our (mostly Wall St) money and aren't going to pay it all back. That's winning for them.
They lend us money (buying our government debt) and we pay it back. That's winning for them.
They win on both ends. And we are suckers on both ends.
I may not be able to get this information down low enough for you to understand. That's the best I can do.
Do the research. They bought our junk bonds, with the yin. By the billions I believe. Do you even know what bonds are?? We were under the agreement to pay those loans back to them. We defaulted. So looks like they are returning the favor.
Take your toddler up a notch upstate. You are way to old to be this dumb..

More facts for a guy that can't produce any...
How Much U.S. Debt Does China Own?
China owns more than $859.4 billion in U.S. debt. That's less than the U.S. debt owned by Japan but it only represents about 2.6% of the total U.S. debt.

Yes. Those aren't junk bonds. Those are the most pristine bonds in the world, and we have paid every single cent.More facts for a guy that can't produce any...

So, we pay China and China doesn't pay us. Do you get it?

A New Approach to Car Batteries Is About to Transform EVs
Auto companies are designing ways to build a car’s fuel cells into its frame, making electric rides cheaper, roomier, and able to hit ranges of 620 miles.

It always made sense to integrate the weight of the batteries into the structure of the vehicle. The structural battery pack is going to be a norm. Tesla spotted stacking structural battery packs at Gigafactory Texas; what's happening?According to this article soon people will be driving their EVs encased within their batteries.

I can't see the advantage of putting any weight above the chassis. The low center of gravity provides phenomenal advantages in handling. It's easier to manufacture a long flat piece for the undercarriage. And for every inch you raise the weight in the air, you need more weight under it to hold it up.
Integrating batteries and the structure makes perfect sense. But I'm not sure why it would ever move off the chassis.

The article explains that.
The larger the battery pack = larger wheels and brakes to support and stop the heavier vehicle. Which creates even more weight.
So in order to decrease weight make the batteries the frame.
Which increases the interior spaces.
Now if one could make the entire vehicle structure a battery then the weight would decrease and increase the vehicle's range.
However battery replacement would be eliminated.

Disposable cars. Off to the landfill when they wear out.
Did they already do that with the Yugo?

You get the same weight substitution by removing pieces of chassis and making the batteries pack act as the chassis. Either way, you're getting rid of the weight, but you're putting it in a better place if you replace the chassis.
The thing that every cool designer forgets is cost. What he's talking about cannot be made quickly or cheaply. It'll be a novelty at best.

We might be saying the same thing. People use frame and chassis slightly differently sometimes.
We never paid those back. Quit with your Obama economics..
So now you are trying to make it sound like Tesla don't weigh a lot more then gas vehicles?
No, again you lie..more facts. Look when this was published. You either have an ego that is way to big, or by definition are retarded..

We have made every single scheduled payment as promised. That's what a bond is. Good grief.

Of course they weigh more. They weigh a lot more. It's not even close to being as light as gas and never will be.
