Fortunately, school bus drivers (are supposed to) follow far more rigid driving rules and they mostly remain off of freeways, so the risk is significantly lower. That typed — my stomach gets queasy every time I see a school bus driving down I-5 in Seattle.

“Honda and Toyota ... focused too much on their bread-and-butter, and not enough on the out-there stuff that heralds the future.”

The problem is easy to fix: Tax based on net worth instead of income.

I was about to ask why anyone needs a V12 engine today. Thank you for explaining it so succinctly for me.

“Eugene is less than an hour from Portland”

Did they charge for tickets to it? The reason more directors do not do creative productions like this is that copyright holders well send their lawyers. If you don’t charge (run on donations) then you can potentially skirt the law, but then you get into cost issues.

The question is how much Tesla will profit on a vehicle sold for 35K. They already have pretty remarkable pricing for what they deliver and this 35K offering is bad news for GM, Nissan and anyone else trying to nudge their way into the EV space. (But, great news for customers.)

Tough call. It might give more points but it has a higher APR than the Facebook / First Bank of Moscow card.

Simply put, we wouldn’t own an EV if we could not charge it at home.

Ah, the pitfall of being a game developer - am I right? [cough] No - don’t get up. I’ll show myself out.

I suspect you have a better EV than our Nissan Leaf. Between the power delivery and the tires, it is more about skating the car when there is ice/snow on the ground.

I agree - facts matter. From the site you linked to:

This may be obvious, but dino burners can lose up to 25% of their “mileage” in cold weather requiring more stops at the station in the cold weather, which is more annoying to me than having to plug in the EV at home every night instead of every other night.

• Honda Accord (mid-size car) gets 30/38 MPG. A Toyota Camry gets 29/41. There are mid-size hybrids that get up to 55 and dino burners that are down in the mid-20's, but I would move your MPG number up to the 32+ range.

There are different levels of “mad”, hence my point of “marketing mad” versus “truly mad”. The proper analogy would be my girlfriend cheating on me and whether I still continue business as usual in public or whether we consider breaking up.

“But Apple is mad, right? I’d say so.”

“... the fact that cars today get better mileage at 79 then the cars of yore did while driving 55.”

“Where did you get your 45 mph number from?”
