Every illegal that makes it across the US border should be given a free Chevy Bolt that is programmed to drive to the west coast of Canada.

As soon as the illegal gets in the car it locks itself and speeds off for the nearest northern border crossing.

2283 km could be covered in one day, (+ 60 hours charging time).

The illegal would find in the backseat 100 liters of Coca-Cola for the road-trip.

When the lucky Mexican gets to Canada the car automatically drives straight to a Diabetes Clinic.





*The Bolt would have to be charged 6 times to get to Canada, each charge would add ten hours to the road-trip.

Eric,
The Average New Car Price Is Unbelievably High
Total B.S.

A Toyota Corolla Hybrid base cost is $23,500. Here's one for $26,362:

The Chevy Bolt can be had for roughly $20,000!
Again, total B.S.

A Chevy Bolt 2023 goes for $26,595:

And that's even considering that the Chevy Bolt will be discontinued. Who's gonna want a car that is discontinued and may not have the spare parts available for the lifetime of the car?

No matter how you slice it, EVs are simply more expensive than their equivalent ICE counterparts. Not even equivalent, mind you. The Bolt, for example, has a shorter range that the Toyota Corolla.
