    ... what kind of dumbazz spends a hundred-large, on a glorified Volkswagen toaster oven special?

    Porsche Applies Large Markdown For Taycan EV As Demand Runs Out Of Juice | ZeroHedge

    Perhaps lazy, overpaid Porsche people intended "Tay-can" as a clever grammatic conjunction for, take + can? As opposed to, kicking the can? Or, perhaps going-to-the-can?

    There are people who just tell the dealer to bring one over tomorrow morning my good man, pocket change. Lots of them.

    Ah but Prius came before this spirited young horse ... soul ...

    Vehicle-naming lowlights have include Hummer (not that I know what that means) and Dodge Ram, now that trucks are coming into their own for pedestrian 'removals'.

    .....Porsche says the team tasked with selecting the name for the electric car took a year and a half to complete their work...Of the six hundred or so ideas, Porsche chose Taycan because it represents something “lively, impetuous, vigorous, light-footed on long stretches without tiring, and free-spirited.”

    And they came up with a made up word that means (roughly) a horse's backside?

    ...and they say you can't give Rednecks money....:whistle:
