Detroit is the worst place to own an electric car | Metro Detroit News | Detroit | Detroit Metro Times
Detroit is, of course, the Motor City — but apparently that only refers to old-fashioned internal combustion cars, and not those newfangled electric ones.
According to a new study of the best U.S. cities to own an electric car, Detroit ranked dead last. The study was conducted by roofing company Gnome Roof, which helps connect consumers with solar power panel installation providers to help charge their electric cars.

Whatever the outcome of the UAW strike, #Musk has already won. A few days into #UAW #strike against the #Detroit #automakers one thing is clear. #Musk has already won. From the get-go, #GM #Ford #Chrysler parent #Stellantis were expected to spend more on wages because of the union’s pressure the question is just how much more.

All of the big 3 companies have not reached an agreement and put out statements saying they're "disappointed", trying to lead us to believe that they've put forth a fair deal.
A targeted strike by the United Auto Workers has begun, including Ford Michigan assembly plant in Wayne, the Stellantis owned Jeep plant in Toledo Ohio, and the GM plant in Wentzville Missouri. The strike plan starts with calling upon only 3 plants to strike and will increase the amount of strikes if bargaining isn't going well.

“But a few nights later, there was Scout, back on that same couch in the nursing home lobby. Somehow he again scaled a 10-foot chain-link fence, then a 6-foot solid privacy fence, crossed a highway without getting run over, entered the front door unnoticed, jumped onto the same couch as before and made himself at home for the night.”
