I can confirm that 30 kWh per day average here. 1400 sq ft. Gas heat but electric range, water heater, clothes dryer, Tesla, electronic do0dads. I don’t drive a lot (6 K miles annually) so the car uses less than you would think.

I have never owned a Toyota but I applaud them for still offering normally aspirated engines.

Ask the engineer? I can answer the basic question. Tight, precise tolerances. 

That law is more common than you think. Wisconsin for example had the same thing up to about ten years ago when it was repealed.

YMMV. In the two years that I have owned my Tesla I have only used superchargers about a dozen times. However, I have never had to wait. Even once.

Was she trying for a Darwin award?

I would sign up for tiktok (sp?) just to watch that.

So, we can agree that 96 rounds seems excessive. What is the correct number? 

96 shots fired. The person was struck three times. The fatal bullet came from a ricochet. About right.

Or printing Fiat money?

What is all of the hubbub about? I had an Infiniti Q50 hybrid. 148 MPH out of the box.

I’m an old person (73). I used to have a Pontiac G8 GT. Then an Infiniti Q50 hybrid. Because the V-8 powered G8 wasn’t fast enough. Now I have a Tesla model 3. Faster still. My wife still drives her 2012 Mercedes SLK 350 (R172). She’s old too.

Both of those cars have mechanical overrides. In fact, the one on the Tesla is so intuitive many people grab it by mistake instead of pressing the button on the armrest with the OPENED DOOR ICON ON IT!

This ^^^!

It is called a stupidity penalty. Stop blaming the finance companies for your lousy credit and lack of common sense.

Let me guess. The trucker “swerved to avoid ______”. Fill in the blank.

So, a vehicle not much different in size and mission compared to the current Mach-E. With probably the same truck-like ride.

Sounds like someone that has made multiple bad decisions. I hope she works through it and wises up. Lesson learned.

“...but the particulate is cancer-causing.”

It always has been. I was amazed at the unhappy customers with that 3.5 EcoBoost. They railed at the lousy economy. A good number traded in early for V-8s.
