Keep in mind in California, especially SoCal, that other incentives to lease electric including carpool lane/HOV benefits with the white stickers with no expiration and also FREE single occupant access to all the tollroads, which I personally find to be a lifesaver. Right now I live DT and there is a very robust EV…

That’s a stupid statement to make, as any Leaf, Fiat 500e, BMW i3, Chevy Spark, Golf EV would be in the same boat as they all have the same limited 90-100 mile full charge range. So it’s not just a Nissan Leaf problem

Yep I feel the pain as my DD is a Fiat 500e so I’m definitely concious of the limited daily range. In addition we have wall charging at work, unfortunately the number of electric car owners has nearly doubled in the past year so we’re constantly fighting for charging plugs which is irritating to no end.

Hi Mock is basically some generic cannon fodder MS gunpla kit made foe the Gunpla Battle game

The Legacies did hit their peak with the BL/BP generation. I miss my 2007 GT Spec B. Legacy body with the Sti 6spd...

Ignorant statement = ClubGay

Yup, pretty much that

I’m not a Nissan shareholder, so I’m unbothered by this

Why are you bothered by this? They are investing the money and taking the risk pushing the boundaries of tech not you. You make it sound like you’re the one losing money in this crazy experiment.

Sadly, I find individuals can be reasonable, but groups...forget it. It’s their way or the highway

The flame wars also simply tap into that ugly aspect of human nature called ‘tribalism’ where individuals are allowed to give into their ugliest impulses. This extends not only to phones, but cars, politics, religion, sports teams, etc.

The exception to that is their PCs, I own a Macbook Pro for photo editing work and the presence of iTunes has zero impact on my regular laptop workflow.

That’s not what ‘hipsters’ mean. What you’re describing are hardcore Android hacking nerds (I’m among them, so I know)

I buy the best products suited for ME and my needs regardless of brand.

Brand loyalty and snobbery does suck and is for the weak and narrow minded. I switch brands all the time when it comes to buying new phones, tech, cars, shoes, etc.

To me, definitely began with the B5 A4. The new design language really injected new life back into Audi in the USA. Before that I remember my parents owning an 5000 (with the infamous sudden accel recall) and a rebadged 100. Both were nice cars and very high tech, but not particularly memorable.

Nope, the cars don’t create douches, but douches are attracted to those brands. They of course ruin the brand for the non-douche owners who just like that cars.

I’m enjoying my snoozefest B8 S4 just fine. Thanks. Still take it for canyon drives on weekends.

Maybe if he gave the car some of his ‘special’ cocktails, it would have been easier to control

I vas only following orders from Herr Kommander!!
