🏗️Audi plans to manufacture…
We borrowed a Tesla Model Y this past weekend and we had a good time. My 4.5 year old probably liked it the most; with the games, the light show, the PA system, and the tooting noises. I enjoyed the ease of charging and the self-driving features. Now, does my wife want one? $12,500 in tax credits is quite appealing.
News time.
