Red and amber are the least fatiguing.  Blue is one of the worst and I wish manufacturers would quit using it so much.

Hawaii.

You could fit a lot of battery under the hood of today’s trucks.  Or up where the spare tire usually is.  That would help with traction too.

Except in California.  If you buy the car there, you pay the taxes to California AND to the state where you register the car.  California is special.  You used to be able to get around it by having the car shipped out of state, but I don’t know if that’s the case anymore.

I was thinking the same thing.  If I was living there I’d rather have tires than money.  At least the tires I can barter for something useful (assuming highway bandits don’t kill me fist, like with Luis Valbuena).

I don’t use public charging stations unless they’re free. My C-Max gets about 20 miles on a 6kWh charge. At the Blink chargers, that costs a little over $3. A gallon of gas is $2.50 and gets me 36 miles.  Plus most of the places I stop that do have those chargers are near my house anyway, so I either just left the

“Too big to fail” didn’t stop GM’s bankruptcy. If it happened to Ford, common shareholders would be lucky to get pennies on the dollar for their stock.

Oh we dreamed of having a Geo Metro hatchback. My six siblings and I had to ride in a cardboard box on a skateboard that my dad pulled behind his bicycle.

Don’t really care about that. My C-Max gets 20 miles on 60 cents’ worth of electricity. The same distance in gas would cost a little over $1. It’s not much difference (especially since gas prices are so low) but when I drive the 20 miles 5-6 days a week it adds up.

I think the more likely future scenario is that your car drops you off at your apartment and then drives itself to a charging center somewhere nearby.

In your scenario you’re buying one car and then helping pay for a separate autonomous car just to keep yours charged. The simpler solution would be for your car to be

If you’re skidding on ice with the wheels locked up the car thinks you’re going 0mph.

Also there’s an electronic system on the plane that tells you if you’re lined up on the runway. Even if he was flying manually he or the other pilot should have checked that.

Reverse:

The Kroger by me has one. Know what it costs to recharge the battery on my C-Max Energi? $6. $6 for the 20 miles of range, the same I could get from about $1.50 worth of gas, or about 80 cents worth of electricity at home. The Blink and similar chargers only make sense if you’re in a full EV and absolutely need to

If it’s something that is only used in drag mode, then it could pressurize the system before you hit the throttle, and then stop the A/C (which most cars do at WOT anyway) and still be able to cool for a few seconds before the refrigerant pressure drops.

The Tesla does not generate any power — it consumes it.

So what they’re saying is... ...it’s NOT grounded to the ground?

I’m not talking about one group of people having enough water in one specific region where they chose to live. Water stays water until you hydrolize it. The whole point of doing that is to use the energy we get when we make it back into water. The net result is almost nil. Once the water is exhausted it has to go

Burning hydrogen is sustainable. The output is more water.
