Article is a bit unclear if these are restaurant delivery services or third party like Uber Eats or Doordash. We used Uber Eats exactly once cause I got a $25 gift card, so we ordered or normal $23 chinese takeout, but came out to nearly $40 with all the fees and shit. I’m not surprised at all if people are using…

It’s the 6th bullet on Slide 9. I specifically looked for that as well but not because of that anecdotal news story: more that I had read it was rated highly previously and it’s what I drive.

You can always search for them (pretty sure those icons still show up for gas/food/etc for one click searching) if you are dying for a snack. No sense clogging up the map with a bunch of icons of them if you’re in an EV.

The X stands for X-Treme!

Yay more B-5!    Boo on yet another multiverse plotline (or am I the only one worn out on this trend?)

My point was really that asteroids don’t really have debris trails like comets tend to. Any ice or gasses will have already “boiled” off so it’s just a rock floating through space.

Of all the things going on in the world today, this is certainly one of them.

“asteroid” not “comet”

I have a Y and the “% remaining” it calculates/estimates when I get to my destination is usually spot-on (or close enough). Like you, I don’t even look at range anymore as I only care about how much battery I’ll have left, especially if I know that I’m not going to be able to charge at my destination.

It’s the…

That’s just how GPS works. It doesn’t know which way you’re going until you move. It uses the satellites to know where you are. Then it reads them again and again. It knows you were at point A, then point B and now you’re at point C so you must be travelling that direction. It has no way of knowing which way you’re…

Yeah I bought a Y despite Musk because of a few features others didn’t have (sentry mode, dog mode, etc) but mostly because of the charging network. Since then there’s more EV options and the charging network is being opened up with manufacturers adopting NASC. I sincerely doubt my next EV will be a Tesla, but that’s…

Manatees have gone woke.

Well I can give one example but I might be an ideal candidate as I live in Florida so it’s flat and the weather is nice. I drove from my house on the space coast to the other side of the state to Clearwater (near Tampa), which is 175 miles to the Supercharger I stopped at. Started at 100% and got there with ~32%. Took…

I get the whole thing, but not sure if using the EPA’s allowance to do 3 runs and using the best one (or is it the average of the 3?) counts as misleading. Just because not all companies do 3 runs, doesn’t mean it’s misleading to since the EPA allows it.

The rest is definitely an issue (such as the corporate culture…

I’m going to get hell for this but I’ll go with a Tesla X (or alternatively a Y). Gas goes bad, but I can use solar to keep a Powerwall (or several) charged to keep the car charged. It’s hot outside, but I can run the AC for something like 60-100 hours before the battery would drain, so I can easily sleep in it…

I’ll bet he heard cars have trans-missions and immediately grabbed the wheel and steered it into a tree while screaming that the auto industry went woke.

Conservatives and death threats. Name a better duo. I’ll wait.

Being a car accident is so woke. WOKE WOKE WOKE WOKE!

Man, I was a little upset when I realized the 1500+ dvds I had collected were gathering dust, were pretty much worthless and I had only watched them once (with the exception of a handful I had watched twice and about 2 or 3 I had watched more than twice).

But at least it wasn’t just a shelf full of empty boxes sitting…
