9. We traded for an Equinox EV in February. I'll tell you what, it's a nicer car than the Model 3.

My buddy just did the same two weeks ago and agrees. He calls it “a real car that you don’t have to worry about blowing a tire on a pothole.” It definitely rides nicer.

I’m happy he traded because he parks his car in my driveway when he travels and he’s going to be gone for a month. I was joking at first when I said he had to get a camouflage cover for the car… but I don’t know now. I’m glad that resolved.

Yesterday my buddy told me his realtor drove his Equinox and now he wants one. The realtor’s Tesla is paid off but he says he just can’t be seen in it anymore - Chicago north side with, I think, a big LGBT clientele base.

The Tesla was great when it was ahead of the game. Now not so much. I do kind of miss how super fast it was but that can get you in trouble. The Chevy App leaves a LOT to be desired. But the Tesla interior was falling apart.

I guess I can live without the fart noises the Tesla makes. Especially since we programmed my buddy’s car to do it when he first bought his…unbeknownst to him.

I’ll tell anyone to take a look at the Equinox. That free $7500 is a nice incentive.
