Wonder how many other things we’ve been told were the next big thing that we don’t even talk about anymore. Around 2010 discussion was what company would have the first self driving cars.

When we bought 2024 ioniq 5 the lease got the $7500 Hyundai rebate but buying didn’t. However buying did have 0% financing for the purchase loan. We keep cars, so this seemed the cheapest for us. Leasing then purchase or another lease would be the same or more in the end. Have you test driven?

I just don’t understand why democratic politicians don’t try to humanize the issue more instead of deferring to it as a local issue best decided by the school/community. That’s true but these are also often young kids who just want to live life. Also, the incidence is so rare.
