I read this story elsewhere. The plane did not actually depressurize. A warning light came on and the flight crew rapidly descended in a controlled manner exercising an abundance of caution. Of course, that would not make good headlines. If it bleeds it leads.

And? A lot of things related to cars don’t make sense. A person needs a hobby. So?

True on both statements. Not a lot of plating or painting going on by hand either.

Nobody is talking about the 800 lb. gorilla in the room. The high costs of fuel. I know it is not related to available parking but it seems that the conversation has turned to trucker’s compensation.

I find it hard to believe that you could not toggle that “Lane departure prevention” feature off. My Infiniti Q50 hybrid, Nissan Leaf and Tesla model 3 all had the capability to have it or not.

How the hell do you get trapped in a Tesla? The emergency door release is obvious as hell. In fact I’ve been given to tell everyone that is riding for the first time “please don’t pull that handle, push that button”. A good friend still did just the opposite three times before he remembered.

Darn acted too soon. Just this summer I bought a foldable E-bike from Costco for $500. To get around Road America. Works just fine but I would have spent more for the Honda.

Mostly pickup trucks? I’m shocked.

What? They need to be activated by driver every time that car is started. That was true in at least the three cars I have owned that had that capability.

Or you can just drive the car yourself in those construction zones.

Are we supposed to find five differences in those three pictures?

Hatfields and McCoys

Musk would disagree. He has publicly said “A happy Tesla is a plugged in Tesla.”

That 40 amp charge rate will yield more like 40 or more miles per hour. My 32 amp output yields 35 miles of range per hour.

Correct. Almost. 32 amps for a 40 amp circuit. The limit on some models anyway. 48 amps for a 60 amp circuit. My son charges his model Y fairly quickly with that setup on a hard wired Tesla wall charger.

Shhh. What are you doing? Presenting facts? Heads will explode.

For overnight is will more than suffice. You can go from 10% to 90% overnight on almost any EV on the market today.

Level II charging is not well suited to road trips. 

This! I use the 70/40 rule on my Tesla because I can. I can go a long way on that if I need to. My daily use averages only about 40-50 miles. Of course I will top it off if I need to also. Stretches the battery life a long way.

NiMH batteries. Old tech. My calendar says the year is 2023. Yours?
