Can I just say that this image made my day:

I sit firmly in this camp - I Also buy my vehicles with higher mileage so my up-front cost is lower than new.

I have 211,000 miles on my 2007 Silverado. Just took it on an off roading 4x4 camping trip through the middle of the desert 2 weeks ago.

That is a Car Payment of $333 /mo. Cannot really buy a brand new car that equals whatever you have for that monthly cost - and next year you may only spend 1k or less on it.... You are making the right choice.

no kidding - I hope those guys all land on their feet and do something with all that knowledge.

good point - insurance would have to be taken into consideration.

To the NYPD and Mayor Adams:

I am not aware of any regulatory requirements for EV technicians to be certified electricians - just like you can open an Auto Repair shop without being ASE certified.

“We have like 350-plus appointments for Model S battery repairs, and we just don’t have time to go any faster,” Medlock said.

I do not understand what you are getting at. The article is about a law that will require all new cars to have it by 2029.

Computers should not be driving cars.

If drivers are both more educated and practiced safe following distances - There are not “Emergency” situations that cannot be avoided.

Do you really think someone will say “I have automatic emergency braking in my car so I can play solitaire on my phone while I am supposed to be paying attention to the road.”

Exactly.

In the original thread about this someone commented on my post saying it was a known issue for many of them.

At this point I have just resigned myself to not having DRL’s - but when the main bulbs die I will try that. thanks for the tip!

This is not directed at you Brad - just a comment on the backwards thinking of lawmakers.

I never did look that up - but I made an assumption that was the case. I just left the burnt out bulbs in place.

I am putting this on the list because it is waaaaaay to time consuming for what it is. It is not really all that difficult.

would wearing yellow tinted glasses help since it would change the color entering your eyes?
