Yes, the wheels do sorta look similar.

I think reverse is louder, appropriately so, for most EVs. Its annoying, but not as bad as killing a kid.

EV owner here. You dont really hear the sounds unless your windows are down or you’re a pedestrian. Its far more noticeable to anyone but the driver, even w/ windows down.

Any lawyers out there want to explain to me how a neighboring state can prosecute someone for doing something that’s legal in the state they’re in? So much for that whole “state’s rights” argument by Rs. Its like prosecuting someone in Utah for going to Colorado, smoking a bunch of weed, and once sober, driving home…

Ha, that was a weird glitch. No idea where this article came from.

When did Beto start making Youtube videos?

Good point. Its an even nicer way of saying “fucking careening down the street at nausea inducing speeds”, a skateboard would have never gotten up to that dangerous velocity.

 Is that a Qanon dig?

My Bolt is categorized as a compact SUV (facepalm).

I’m reading lots of rooftop tent bashing. I just picked up a 4 person Thule RTT, and it actually makes camping enjoyable again. Im 41, 2 kids, and every year throwing the tent up feels like more and more a pain in the ass. After the tent is up, I still have to blow up 4 “10 breath” mattresses, one of which leaks after…

Seems like one crash like this would be enough to bankrupt this organization after lawsuits. Is law enforcement not aware of these events? Seems like an easy thing to prevent when everything is telegraphed ahead of time. Cops can just set up on the promoted course, pull every one of these d’bags over.

The average miles driven in the US per year is ~14,200 (so I plugged in 39 miles each day - weekends or weekdays. 14,200/12 = 1183/30 =39.4 miles per day. I then plugged in the US average cost of electricity (which after very quick googling I got $.104/kwh (.12/kwh in my area, but *I have solar*), which I admit can…

I just crunched the numbers, and at current US average miles/year, US gas prices, and US average length of ownership, US ave fuel economy, a gas car will cost $18-22k along in gas. With US ave electricity costs (granted, this number is all over the place), you’ll save nearly $20k driving an EV, I shit you not. With…

I never said impoverished, in fact I made it clear that “not rich” doesn’t mean poor. I’m talking middle class. Poor people shouldn’t try and buy a car they cant afford, which is probably well below $18k.

If you’re coming from a Tesla and you dont like selling kidneys, I recommend a Bolt. Nerdy, but quick, efficient, just fun enough (though coming from a Tesla nothing will feel quick anymore), and best of all, doesn’t run on gas.

Uhhhh, why not? How the hell else do you buy anything if you dont have cash? Better do it quick before interest rates go up. The Federal Reserve just hiked them up .75% and its only a matter of time before it trickles down to consumers. Here’s my credit union’s rates, still seem normal for the moment.

I’m slightly disappointed its not called “motor-goating”.

You live in *this* state? Nice.

I bet you didn’t even search the forums yet.. amateur.
