[@alphaforce6998]

You already have that right; the thing is that your rights must be exercised. You and many other people subscribe to the idea that others will exercise your rights for you, but the reality is that you must assert your rights and stick by them. If you want to know what your rights are, look at what the enemy is labeling as "sovereign citizen" and mocking - they're pushing that propaganda to keep you a slave to them. For example, each state DMV is operating a massive fraud, because federal statutes define MOTOR VEHICLES as "a carriage...used for commercial purposes" in 18 U.S. Code § 31 (6). And yes, this applies in EVERY STATE because each state is subject to the supremacy clause of the Constitution for the United States...so it doesn't matter how states define "MOTOR VEHICLE" if it is in conflict with the federal statute, which requires "commercial use" to be a requirement. The other big scam is tricking you into believing that your car or truck is "equipment", thus subject to registration. Equipment is something used for commercial purposes. For most people, who just use their cars/trucks for traveling in private (i.e. you are not being paid to transport goods or passengers), they are CONSUMER GOODS (durable goods) which are not subject to registration. See UCC § 9-102 (23).

His review was honest and affirmed all the information I had already attained via independent research. EV's have poop range for towing.

I have 3 cars. I may replace my Focus RS with an EV. I may replace my SUV with a hybrid, but I probably won't replace my truck ever with an EV... This doesn't mean I'm against them, but just like was stated in the video, the cons are too far negative for the jobs I'm demanding of the vehicle. AND 1 thing not stated ever in EV reviews is you absolutely need a lvl 2 charger installed at your home location if you plan to drive an EV daily. That's an additional ~$1000 cost...

Alex Jones gives head to chipmunks

[@Mountain_Valley_Sky]

You do a great job on your channel. Now, let's get dwn to the real topic both seen & hidden. This video was a TOTAL CYA deal. Trying to undo the massive bad PR damage that Jones created from thin air, using selected facts, ( as do ALL MAIN STREAM MEDIA outlets, daily, to lie to viewers). So now Hoov has to try to do a wrap of car review video so as to try to appease the Ford pple from totally ruining his present and future relationship with the largest truck manufacturer on US soil. It's rather comical to see how a guy that nobody including Hoov likes (Jones) when he 8s doing EXACTLY what MSM does daily to viewers by lying & twisting facts to suit there narrative. Like when WhiteHouse press secretary JKP lied 9 ways from Sunday about how Joe's gaffe of a tragic death of a woman in congress a month previous, was met by Our President asking where she is in the crowd during his speech. That part was not funny. What was funny was the circular loop of lies the WhiteHouse told to try to defend Joe Bidens inability to remember when pple died & how they can no longer be present for his press brief or speeches. Anyway, Hoov had to try to smooth this all over to avoid a future relationship with Ford, & although Ford Executives would never act mad about this PR nightmare, even Hoov had to ADMIT he uses clicking titles to lure in viewers & subs. So this whole thing was a TOTAL Public relations disaster for Hoov, Ford, & CLIMATE Change/Global Warming activist. & Hoov doing everything possible to distance himself from his own content by pointing out small nuggets of misrepresented info from his vid to Jones show. When we see the exact same things DAILY from our own Main Stream Media & WhiteHouse, & are just supposed to accept it as fact, when they present lies & twisted dialog as real reporting. So, in closing, for once, maybe...just maybe... the Liberal Left got a dose of there own medicine. Clearly this scared Hoov. Not cuz he did anything wrong. But because Liberal public relations was given to them what they believe they give to the STUPID AMERICAN PPLE every day. & now nobody likes it. & this could cost pple something do to the damage believed to be done to everyone involved. Welcome Liberal Pple, to the world of 74 million voters. Now ya get to understand how they feel when you lie to them daily on TV, youtube, & the internet in general. Nice review BTW, Hoov. Especially pointing out the seat materials on the Ford EV F150. Man, this really scared ya, looking forward into your own future. Well... lesson learned son. U want clicks, so ya use titles to get um. & now no free trucks for you anymore from Ford. Unless your awesome review in this video got you off the hook.. Don't worry. Americans have short memories. & politicians know this. Just gotta deny deny deny, till the next distraction comes along. Just think if KZbin shut off your channel like they have thousands of others who accidentally did exactly what you did..?? Got the wrong pple upset at you. Those CLIMATE pple & Others will crush guys like yourself if you hadn't done all the hiding & fainting to try so hard to show how bad you act like you feel.

No wonder why Jones got his ass sued off. it's obvious that Jones doesn't know shit. I have told people over and over that that battery technology is not quite there yet. and that is holding back EVs at this point in time. maybe sometime in the future battery technology will improve. but right that's where it stands. but people don't want to listen to me and that's their problem. TFL did a test on the Lightning on a steep mountain pass in Colorado. with a much heavier load and it was very impressive. but if a person is going to want to drive across Country. it simply can't be done yet and this is the same for All EVs.

Tyler, keep doing what you do and telling it like it is. We appreciate it!

Hoovie, when you are wondering where your keys went, re-watch this video @ 15:01... They yeeted into the back area.

[@95scort]

In a world full of lies and overall dishonesty, Tyler told the honest truth and that is a refreshing thing for the majority of people(except for the ones who cannot handle the truth as they are so accustomed to being lied to). Please don’t ever stop or change what you’re doing Hoovie, we love the content you bring us because it doesn’t come with a hidden agenda~

[@nameless-og]

That's true. He is one of them though, there is no need to say it's a "war with conservatives". Jones clearly got a mixed bag of info from someone who doesn't even know the difference between Hoovie and TF mixing it all up. "Get me all the negative stuff about this on the youtoobs!" ... but why fixate on that, just set it straight and laugh about it. As a side note, I actually clicked the video just to unsub when I saw the divisive title, only to find out that I consistently get his notifications without being subbed, instead of the channels I actually sub to... don't have to go very far to find that dishonesty and lies with this company.

[@maverick_trail]

@@nameless-og 100% correct. What is Tyler scared of? A so-called "conservative" website having an opinion about his video? And I'm not talking about AJ, he just likes hearing himself talk.

[@davidtimmerman3368]

Its real easy to see what Tyler is scared of - being cast as a partisan by either side, reducing his audience, and his future projects. Conservative sites cast him as 'telling the truth about how bad EVs are' and some who are disgusted by people like Alex Jones decide no longer to watch his videos (or buy his merchandise). Then, he has to 'correct' the record, and several people think he is a turncoat, and also unsubscribe. You can scroll through these comments and see some people are calling him a sellout for this, or saying he misrepresented, and all the dude wants to do play with cars. And the last thing he wants is to have FoMoCo mad at him, especially since he has some pretty examples of their work, including the Lightning....

[@maverick_trail]

@@davidtimmerman3368 That's what's wrong with this world today. If you worry about getting canceled, then you're not really being honest. Who cares what Alex Jones or Ford thinks? Who cares what their fans think? They can make their own videos (we already know what Ford's video would NOT show). Tyler's original video was not political, but he made this video political for no good reason.

[@BOOT]

@@davidtimmerman3368 He made this video to try n minimize the damage because it's well known that KZbin punishes conservative content creators or any who don't go with their agenda and talk about things they don't approve. Even if you mention certain things like china. I know of several car creators who won't use the word gun even if it's in reference to a tool. It will hurt his channel long term no doubt about it.

[@ChrisJones-qw7bn]

Only an IDIOT would think the FIRST generations of a new type would be even remotely useful for towing or hauling. Those folks FAILED at Science and Math classes obviously. Even the gas/diesel engine versions WARN you that TOWING WILL REDUCE EFFECTIVE FUEL RANGE!!! Its in the fucking MANUAL!! I'm SURE the EV one has it CLEARLY Stated too!!

[@ironymatt]

This is an opportunity for Tyler to re-do his initial video, but with the Ford towing profile optimized for it that the EV rep mentioned and the drop hitch for a level load. Let's see how much of a difference it really makes!

[@andrewfletcher5584]

@@ironymatt you're missing the point. Real world usage mean that people will hook up the truck with the trailer leaning one way or the other, they're going to drive by it at 65-75 mph and if you're in the Northwoods, like I am, there's going to be freezing cold weather, heater running, wipers running, etc. I don't have time to way for a truck to charge for hours on my way to a job and I'm not going to ask my customer if I can charge my vehicle once I'm there.

TFL had similar findings, but they used bigger loads. As they have stated, “The Lightning EV is a Model T”. The tech is early and not at parity with current towing tech.
