The one downside to EVs is their efficiency. The slightest thing will reduce their range: weather, wind, elevation increase.  Not usually a big problem, until you try something like towing a large trailer.

I just took my EV on a 1700 mile trip between Texas and Colorado and the **entire** trip cost me $100 in electricity.

Even the non-Hue Philips “Warm Glow Effect” bulbs know to warm up as they dim.

Exactly.  Company that lied to itself and everyone about what it does shocked when what it does is found to be bad for itself and everyone.  What a load of bull.

No, BP being dishonest about the damaging effects of fossil fuel use over the decades and its lack of action to move to a sustainable business model could kill it.

People haven’t gone mad, capitalism has. Society has slowly cut into the middle class while simultaneously keeping them under-educated so they can work them to death with little pay and vacation time, and at the same time convince them that they can afford a $40k car because they don’t know better.

We got mad when China tried to hide the outbreak at first, at a local and national level. And here we have Trump, basically doing the same.

Literally any company has better security than those 3 dinosaurs.

Ok.  Have 3 companies disrupt this dinosaur-run industry.

Late to reply but here you go. I drove from Austin to the TX Panhandle and charged twice, about 10 minutes each. Not quite the 3 minutes you are gunning for, but I didn’t care. I took a health break, got a drink and my car was ready to go.

They’ve actually gotten really good at UI lately, and updates.  I say this and I’m a Pixel owner.

I can’t believe non-rechargeable batteries are even legal.  Instead of these, buy Amazon Basics rechargeable batteries - way more environmental.

The Tramp looks like a Berger Picard - a rare breed from France. Source, I have one.

Fun fact - non-parrot birds have a movable lower beak whereas true parrots have a movable upper beak.

I get 126 MPG and go 0-60 in 4.9 seconds in a sedan. Who’s holy grail is this, honestly? It’s prehistoric tech.

Try Terry Black’s as well.  Easy to get (no hours-long line) and delicious!

Austin here - my last car was a manual Civic Si sedan and I hated rowing that thing in the traffic here. Got an automatic now (well, a no-transmission Model 3) and driving is fun again.

As a Model 3 owner, they are *definitely* doing something right.  The car is astonishing.  I WANT to drive.  In Austin!

TesLoop has some Model X with 300k+ miles and the original battery. Still going at above 90% of original range.
