Or you can just leave it and recharge at 120V/10 amps overnight.  That gets enough range most of the time as long as you plug it in every night.

This is a brilliant decision and is in no way bound to backfire.

First they came for the footballs, and I did not speak out — because I didn’t care about the footballs.

I have a theory that the end of democracy is when the rich buy all of the news media (radio, print, TV, and major internet sites), turn off the comments, and fire all writers who don’t tow the line. Then we have the same culture as Russia, China, and the Middle East.

My gods Musk is a easily butthurt individual. He’s like a child.

My butt dyno is nowhere near finely tuned enough to distinguish between two cars so close in performance at that level. So who fucking cares? The dick waving really needs to just stop, both cars are completely stupidly fast.

I support the idea of charging in FE races. Would add a dynamic to the strategy giving drivers more power available after a pit stop. Depending on the charging system it could provide a competitive advantage too.

Mechanically, WRX STI DCCD is hard to beat, it is geometrically similar to longitudinal Audi Quattro, but more full time, and with more limited slip diff function.

Got my snow tires on just the other day in time for our first multi-day snow storm here in CO.

Are you guys reposting articles because the previous ones filled up with comments about how Jim Spanfeller is a colossal pussy?

The best AWD is electric AWD. 

Your worries seem overblown. The high current wiring is well protected and isolated. Unless you wreck the car it won’t be exposed. Mom and pop shops are fine for changing your oil or brakes still. Unless you have actual hybrid problems, I wouldn’t sweat it. I’d have no issue continuing to do my own maintenance on an a…
