No the construction worker won’t buy ford lighting truck because you put a trailer on it and little weight and the thing can only drive 75-80 miles totally useless when you put weight in it and use it.
The ev is not the future. We can’t power the grid let alone electric cars and I’ve been saying his for years. California is proving it right now don’t run your ac don’t charge your car cause we don’t have the power but we announce making internal combustion illegal few days earlier lmao!
Aside from classic cars turned electric, in the daily world hybrids are the solution for the next twenty years. Too bad so few don’t recognize this. More economic hardship and strategic calamity is going to take place because of the illogical frenzy for EV
s.
Could not agree more, this is a mad dash without real thought. Jay lives in California, Newsome says don’t charge your cars because it’s hot and of course we need our air conditioners! Can you imagine if every car was an EV, the electricity doesn’t mysteriously appear. The end result is zero emissions, but what about building the batteries and what do you do with the batteries when they die, are you going to find another mountain to bury them like nuclear waste? Jay says $7 a gallon for gas, what was it before biden closed down the pipe lines and he’s going to be on the show with him, is he using a teleprompter??? The reality of EV’s is they will take a part of the scene along with fossil fuels, solar, wind and water to sustain the world, but trying to make every vehicle electric is a fools errand. Make solar panels mandatory for every house in America and the world, that will be a real change for power production and cut our use of fossil fuels.
I know where there’s a MORVAIR . . .
It’s parked next to a bananarama
Always enjoyable listening to Jay.
In part I’m jealous of his collection and wish I was him but another part of me thinks this is whats wrong with our world that one man can have so many cars while many people cant afford even one?
He didn’t get that collection overnight. That’s a lifetime’s worth of collecting.
Motivation
@GWAForUTBE Its more than motivation, some people are highly motivated work 3 jobs and cant even pay rent and food for the week
@mindofown your working the wrong 3 jobs. Are they for other people or for yourself. Some succeed some just suck. Consider visiting a hospital of para-quadraplegics. Feed someone who can’t even feed themselves. You will go home after feeling very lucky with what you have.
We dont want no stinkin EVs ….ICE’s yes….shove your EV
Jay Leno touting EVs …say it isnt so jay ….your a traitor too the ICE.EVs at $57k are not “affordable” by any means
When you have too much money next on modern Marvels.
Classic Cars should not be made electric then you take out the soul. I have a few Classic cars to, i hope the government leaves the Classics alone and keeps fuel for classic cars available. It can be very clean burning fuel anyhow, i mean without the ethanol crap
I always liked jays analogy about the car and the horse. What he doesn’t say is that back then, they never made buying a horse illegal. Also, we were sold the idea of the environmental necessity of ev cars. It is now clear that there is no environmental benefit.
Jay Leno is a sell out for money. Yes he has personal interests, cars being one of them. Hell has many car enthusiasts.
How can someone so intelligent believe that immigrants were banned?
We don’t have Old Trafford! We have Anfield Road!
Jay, they didn’t ban immigrants. They wanted them to enter legally. As in a legal process…wtf guy!
Awesome!
Jay without denim! 😂
Swimming through the cesspool which is social media and the internet is made worth it because of this kind of interview. Thank you for posting.
I hate when people make some random comparison about a new technology being adopted by the masses. A electric car and a gas car are literally the same thing besides how you charge or fill it up with “energy”. We act like this is a brand new revolutionary thing. We are switching to electric for environmental reasons that is it, we are not switching so you can have cheaper energy. One day filling up your electric car will cost the same or more than gas.
Mike WTF. You start by saying you hate random comparisons then give a random comparison. Which is it Mike?
The lighting with the $20K extended range battery tows 69 miles with an empty trailer
I’ve become a bit of a Elon fan even though I’m not a fan of EVs.This is because I like his libertarian thinking.He’s a EV manufacturer yet he seems to not want to be seen as stupid enough to believe that man’s responsible for “climate change “Jay’s other mention however President Biden yes has a corvette but he’s been molded into climate fanatic by his party.Not to mention his Corvette has no trunk for all his baggage.
F-150 lightning gets 100 miles maximum range to 0 charge in perfect weather towing low weight trailer. Evs are stupid
Jay Leno is Jay Leno. He is balanced, on camera anyway, in his attitude about American ingenuity, and how people are creative. He is not publicly political, he only has one shirt and one pair of pants, and does what he wants. People want to be in his circle of influence and I enjoy watching when I get a chance.
Interview starts 6:50 OK, I get it now, this is a a Ford an GM commercial.
17:30 Jay Leno articulates the natural decline of American society.
Jay Leno not in the weekend driving your Hemi, they are going to ban ICE cars! it’s not like you like Electric and you like ICE and are all get along fine. they are going to outlaw ICE.
This guy is terrible at interviews. It’s like he’s not even listening to what jay is saying and only thinking about his next question.
Me thinks Jay is a bit out of touch, but, he knows his masters.
Elon is probably one of the top 5 smartest persons on the planet.
The horse analogy was good, but back then you had a choice: horse or car. Now they want to FORCE us into an EV, whether we like it or not. Freedom of choice, let the market and people decide.
Hi Jay great to see you found time to mention President Trump in this interview and how sad it was that Trump wanted a merit based immigration system but President Biden fixed all that sadness away for you that may destroy many American lives but that sadness gone
Never knew that Leno identifies as a Lib until now.
Still have respect for him as a car guy but that’s it.
So all you have to do is be funny, and host the Johnny Carson show for a long time, and you too can own a shitload of rolling history. Who is this guy?
Jay is based
Jay is way off. The EV will NOT be the savior of the classic car. Within a few years EV cars will drive themselves, hence… young people will not get drivers licenses, nor learn to pilot a horseless carriage. So unless you are talking about a 100-year-old boomer…..there will be NO customers for these, for a use, other than museum piece.
What car do you wish you had Jay that you don’t currently have? Caveat: it cannot be a Ferrari
When Jay Leno is driving fast in his fancy cars he doesn’t need a helmet, he only has to wear a chin guard and that will do the job.
He is never funny! How on earth did this man make money like that?
Rather than spending 300$ on your electric bill(house) and 300$. In gas,… you now have a 600$ electric bill…makes sense 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Credit for “leading the charge!” Lol. No puns intended 🙂
Didn’t they hike home electric rates pror to talking about ev cars?…. they did…wtf.
Leno could play Ted Kennedy in a future movie
Jay’s my favorite hoarder of all….well done sir…well done indeed! 👍
Jay, listen carefully…no one in this country is against immigrants ! After all, most of us are not Native Americans, but even they came across the land bridge to settle this continent. We only ask that they respect our laws and immigrate according to the prescribed formula for entry. I know…it’s a long tedious process but the reward at the end is still worthwhile, otherwise the worlds population wouldn’t be clamoring to enter the land of milk and honey.
I like that Jay talks Corvair and then Corvette, has both, but admittedly loves to drive the Corvair!
I enjoy your shows I have read data on EV, how much does electricity cost ? 240 V charge 4 hours costs $73. Your sitting for 4 hours. Let’s look at a batteries $10,000 plus installation estimate if
Hit wrong button $10,000 for batteries and $10,000 plus to install? Then no one looks at power plants cost of diesel hauling loads of coal and hauling cinders? It’s a good thing you still have gas vehicles to get around that is better on the environment.
Fantastic interview!
The Hummer EV isn’t lighter. At 9000 lbs, it’s almost a half ton heavier than the H1 was.
Jay raised an interesting question wondering how they make the Corvette for under $65k. Maybe the answer is they didn’t. The OEMs spend millions each year on marketing. Maybe the Corvette was considered an exercise in marketing and they were happy to accept the loss on a small release car. Or maybe they sold it at break even cost for the same reason. It would be interesting to know the truth, but it would require a whistleblower to tell the real answer. You can hide losses such as this in your quarterley statements as they don’t break down profits and losses directly against a certain car. It is an overall set of numbers.
Where in he’ll can you buy a Vett for 65k? Dealers are charging 90 k over list! Please tell me I will be first in line to buy it!
Smart
Jay, you are the king of logic mate.
So blabby and so apparently intelligent, but completely disconnected.
I guess jay never tried to drive a EV to Alaska as did TFL and see the issues they had with the ford lightning!
Liked it till i realize he threw politics into his interview
Anyone who considers having Biden on his show has no credibility
When was this originally aired?
Never mind. It’s August 2022 at the earliest.
great – What to expect when president Biden talks about EV’s … or what should we expect NOT to hear ?
One of the few decent entertainers. As a car guy, I think Jay is the man ! 🚗
Leno Elon and big Don Ding Dong Daddys from the USA 🇺🇸 👌 FU46
Dusenburg is a wealth automobile. Right Jay?
Leno = Optimism. It’s what makes visiting with him thru his videos such a pleasure.
Jay is the authority on this subject. Nobody else out there comes close. I’m not an ev fan. But this is what will be in the future. 👍🤑🤑😎
If evs are so great why do people have to be forced to buy them?
10:27 the thing is, Jay, it’s 60 years too late. To the rest of the world american cars are jokes on wheels that are horribly inefficent, archaic, unnessecarily polluting and can’t turn corners. Some of them may be horrifically fast but it’s irrelevant if have to essentially stop to make a corner……. and don’t get me started on mustangs. They are cool but all of them except for the current gen are deathtraps
15:12 wait, no it didn’t. it was more like 15.
Trump never banned immigrants… He delayed the entry of immigrants from 7 countries identified by the Obama administration to be hostile to the US until they could figure out how to vet them.
Interviewer needs more education on these subjects
Sorry buddy.. the cathedral of soccer is Real Madrid’s Santiago Bernabeu stadium, not Old Trafford.
“America was never about building premium automobiles.” – Jay Leno. Mr. Leno, how many Duesenbergs do you own? How many Packards, Lincolns or other cars from the 1920s and 1930s when coach builders crafted custom vehicles for the mega-rich robber barons of the USA? Very humorous statement, sir.
Agreed. My ‘66 Monza Corvair convertible is one of the better-looking cars from that era.
Hopefully, when you die Jay, you will not donate these cars to a museum; but will auction them off or give them away to people who will actually drive them. This has been your philosophy your whole adult life.
Any sports car that is Naturally aspirated and manual will appreciate in value and any V10 or V12 will skyrocket
Jay seems like a great guy but… so out of touch with the what the average person could afford in a vehicle. lightning F-150??$80,000-120,000 in Canada – where most people make 30 to 40,000 a year maybe- if they told Jay that he had to pay 75 million for a new car- 3 years of his wage, I wonder how fair he would think the auto industry is.
The car guy on the left would have no idea what most of the cars in that shed are
Hyundai may make a mark in the EV world but Biden not allowing the $7500 rebate for their vehicles is not good. They are preaching climate change and EV but they are delaying the inevitable…hypocrites.
americans are smart? yeah right.
Question to lenno.curiious about when in house financing started and did intrest rates propell them up In becoming a bank
FJB
My dad had Corsair spyder
1962 Corvair spider. I enjoyed it while I had it.
Jay is unique because he’s humble and has such a mellow sense of humor that always manages to get a laugh out of me. I can’t remember any time where I have ever sensed any arrogance from him. Wonderful guy.
I really hope his collection and his garage as a whole will continue after he passes. I may not have loved all of his late night shows, but I truly enjoyed all of his videos and shows related to his collection and garage. And he has many nuggets of information about the “first” cars and trucks.
My son has a EV (Leaf) and he drives it to and from work 10 miles a day, It costs him 200.00 a month in electricity. It would probably cost him 60.00-80.00 a month if it was a gasser (ICE) if it was a small Nissan car even with 5-6 dollar a gallon gas.
The interviewer did not do justice on this interview.
Come on buddy, the opening joke was a waste of few seconds.
Corvairs were indeed unique
JR
Odd that Jay didn’t comment on the forthcoming restrictions on internal combustion engine use – California will be at the vanguard of this – possibly banning their use altogether . . .
This will have a huge impact on Classic vehicles which will simply be turned into static exhibits in museums – with a consequent huge plunge in value . . .
The thrust will be that driving a vehicle creating a poisonous gas is dangerous and an irresponsible crime against public health and the wellbeing of the environment – fines and/or imprisonment will be the penalty . . .
The zealots will have another new axe to grind, a new bunch of people to call enemies, and another position for virtue signalling and self righteousness – I bet they can’t wait to get started
An ELON LENO video
Wait until your electricity rates double or triple. Then what?
The EV’s Are ok the problems are people in life don’t have time for a electric toy car when we are always on the move and don’t have time for a charge like you charge your kids toy cars and trucks that take hours , And then we stil half to use our .. Grids .. To charge them when they say were not because they tell you this lie about .. China Solar Power Systems .. Who has to use in there country do to they don’t have Fossil Fuels like we do , It’s all one big lie and trying to dump all there lies on the truth of the matter so they fatten there pockets and telling us what to do , Won’t Happen
Leno better house the EVs separate from the real cars so when the catch fire it won’t take them too .
Every 2.1 minutes there is a car fire in the US.
I vividly remember my Dad saying only a wussy would buy a truck with power steering and an automatic transmission. My current truck has so many bells and whistles I couldn’t begin to name them all.
Smells like a liberal to me.
Jay basically talks about the impressive, cool, luxurious, fast cars for the 1-2 percenters. What about the common man or woman, the other 98%. It would be nice if he would occasionally talk about the car for the common folk. But then again, nobody would watch his show.
i hope jay took a good shower after meeting with biden
The EV. . . Is no savior.
It’s sharpening your dull tool of ignorance. To think Lithium. Nickel. Plastic. And electric charged toy cars. The oil economics of the world aren’t going to change. Coal fired power plants charge ev toy cars. Ita a failure.
I seems like just a down to earth kind of dude.
You consider $60,000 for an F150 affordable ?
9-11 operator, whats your emergency? We are on fire! Operator, sorry sir, all our trucks are being charged and won’t be ready for another 8 or 9 hours!!
The electric Hummer is the biggest pos ever built.
Jay, no-one banned immigrants. The plan was to regulate the inflow based on the laws that are in place so people come here “legally”. Yes there were quotas but there have always been quotas based on our laws that are in place.
Too much leftist, liberal agenda. Heard enough, bye.
EV are the first two letters of the word EVIL. This is planned failure. And sorry to disagree with Mr. Leno, you cannot just drive it across the country. Ford Motor Company wouldn’t exist if it weren’t for the Dodge Brothers.
Mr. Leno needs to get a clue about how the batteries for EV’s are made. They are more destructive to the environment than any ICE. The people driving them who think they are “saving the planet” are living a lie.
Tell us what happens to the EV batteries, how they have spontaneous fires.
I like this chat Jay, very good.
