There’s literally a police station in the mall across the parking lot!

That’s one more car than Ford makes...

A PT Cruiser? Really? The car that looks like a ZZ Top album cover?

When did they start making better cars? That’s one brand I have no sympathy for. 

It does partially (or maybe completely) explain the lack of an eBeetle - which to me seemed like an obvious step. 

Honestly, when isn’t Volkswagen in a crisis? I feel like there’s a new crisis at VW every couple years, and then they fix it by either spending the money to make cars better and not prone to breaking or they cut expenses and make their cars objectively worse for a while.

Damn, my commute is unfortunately 524 miles.

Of all of those things, about the only one that isn’t entirely duplicated by the smartphone the passenger almost certainly already has and is using, is the passenger side environmental controls. And those have existed in many cars for about twenty years, even without touchscreens. I don’t see those even needing the

I got an obsolete GPS screen in my 2005 vehicle. Imagine in the future buying a 15-20 year old vehicle and your whole damn dash is obsolete.

The base model starts at $69,900. Are you surprised that a bleeding-edge tech luxury car is $111,000?

“From $110,900.”

My EV requires an order of magnitude less thought and effort than my gas cars. No oil changes. No air filters. No spark plugs. No gas stations. No clutches and throw out bearings. No diff fluid or pinion seals. No chain lube. No grease fittings. Two years ago I set the max charge and then I was done with maintenance.

Most, if not all, have recommendations from the manufacturer in the manual, as well as reminders within the charging software re: how to maintain battery health. As you’ve suggested, it’s usually as simple as setting max charge to 80% and not dropping below 20%. People like to make things seem difficult.

No offense, but what are you doing on Jalopnik then?

Step 1: Lease your EV
Step 2: Charge it however the fuck you want

Driving a bus full of kids with no AC going 6mph is just punishing the driver. No sane person would do that to themselves.

You gotta be drunk to put with all those kids. Like my bus drivers back in the day.

Way to give zero fuck’s

OH HELL NO. WE CORRECT YOU. HATE. MAIL. ONTHEMOTHERFUCKINGWAY.

Their you halve it. An other peace, wear the average, person demonstrates they’re inability, to, write, affectively. You’re points are valid, but still, its a shame to sea.
