AutoWeak Dumps On Fisker

I was so disappointed to see the coverage in AutoWeak on the recent auto show in Detroit. The show had a good representation of green cars and they liked the 550 hp Cadillac the best. Can I say WTF you F@#$ing boneheads!?!?

To add insult to injury they totally dumped on Fisker. I’ve noticed a lot of the main stream auto journalists suggesting that cars like the Fisker Karma are going to fail. For example the first sentence in this latest article starts out by saying, The questionable claims made by Fisker are almost too many to count.”

Why can’t the major auto news people give them the positive press they need like point out how well funded they are and how successful Fisker will be if he can prove his car can do all the things they are saying? I just don’t get all the negativity on these new start-ups by the auto press. Can’t they see the good these companies are trying to do? Can’t they see how much stronger America would be if we could move off foreign oil now? Why do they keep praising gas guzzlers?

I’m hoping that Fisker, Aptera and the other X PRIZE competitors show these boneheads exactly where to stick their writing implements, like their computers! LOL.

    Interesting that in that same little herd of green car blurbs that they totally <3 the Zeo. Maybe the main stream auto publications are a little anti start-up.
    Personally, I’m a little skeptical Fisker to keep to his pronounced time schedule but I remain hopeful they can achieve what they claim.

  2. [...] surprised that Autoweek gave them such a good review especially after reading what I thought was an unfair tromping of the efforts Fisker is making about their soon to be released  luxury sedan the Karma. I hope [...]
