Not a single shot of the 2nd row?

If you don’t want or need the extra features, then it’s a valid comparison. PHEV may or may not be worth more money on resale, I know when I bought my hybrid I stayed away from PHEV models because I was concerned about battery replacement cost, which is significantly higher for a PHEV vehicle.

Why is everyone taking the high side of his ‘claimed’ income. He says 30-40k a month, he was probably around 25k at most. He now says 10-15k, it’s probably closer to 5k. Dude is all about appearance.

I agree boss should be in an EV.  However I have read it mentioned many times that a lot of people don’t both plugging in their PHEV, which negates much of the benefit of owning one over a hybrid.

Maybe price difference are less in the UK, which would make PHEVs more attractive to purchase, but the article mentioned a average price premium of 10k in the US. That’s a lot of gas you have to save. If you are forced to buy a higher spec than you would have in a hybrid, that’s not a benefit, that’s a additional…

If you drive 1k miles a month, and use no gas at all in you PHEV, the breakeven time on the PHEV increase in price is still over 8 years.

And there’s your problem. PHEV vehicles cost 10k more than a hybrid, and you save maybe 50 bucks a month in gas, provided you’re diligent about charging. That’s a 16 year payoff for the 10k increase in price if you drive 1k a month. The solution, of course is a straight hybrid vehicle. Better use of batteries (you can…

I remember back in the 90s people were saying there was a 1% chance the neck strap on your helmet would kill you where you otherwise wouldn’t die in a motorcycle accident.  Yeah, those are great odds to live your life by.  I’ve been saved by helmets twice in my life, so if I ride, I wear a helmet (although I just…

Sheetz prices are outrageous for sandwiches. I can get one at Jersey Mikes for the same price and 3x the quality. The only reason I go there now is because they are the only local gas station that sells 88 octane E15 gas. As a delivery driver I like saving that 20-30 cents per gallon.

It’s their non-legally binding motto.  Supreme court has held they have no duty to protect, even if they witness a crime in progress.

Why would you give Musk an interest free loan on a vehicle you weren’t really going to buy?

The Corolla is most definitely boring, as is the Tercel.  They are driving appliances.

Useful and efficient sounds a lot like boring to me.

Maybe it’s time we started treating car thieves like real criminals, rather than giving them a slap on the wrist.  Stealing anyone’s car is going to cause that person a lot of problems, and when they are stealing so many of a particular car that insurance companies are dropping that make of car it causes problems for…

“I know what I’ve got”

Actually, cops are supposed to investigate crimes and arrest people to be prosecuted.

Yeah, so Amtrak has about 1400 passengers cars which hold at most 90 people each. In order to evacuate 2 million people (less than 10% of the population of Florida) it would take 16x more passenger cars than Amtrak owns.  So I don’t think rail is how to do it at all, buses would be better than rail.

Geico is pretty notorious for dropping long term customers for 1 accident. So this doesn’t shock me, the CT is expensive to fix for minor accidents and they want to keep rates low.

Basically they both got replaced with V8s (Hemi and Godzilla) that produce more power.

If you’ll notice, the 14k towing is only available with the longest possible chassis (Supercab with a 8' box or SuperCrew) which would be as long as a F-350 and only in 2wd.
