That’s why I would mandate it in the same way handicapped spots are mandated, minus the location requirement. If you build a commercial building and requirement say you must put say 4 handicapped spots, you much also put 4 level 3 chargers, won’t help for existing buildings. But if every gas station, office building,…

Right it’s like it has huge buck teeth, but jutting out straight forward, and that front bumper looks worse than the old low impact bumper they jam on European sports cars.

Spot on and it’s why Tesla is still so popular they have by far the most robust and reliable charging network. But that’s why I think adding Level 3, specially or better, EV chargers as a mandatory part of a building permit should be a thing nationwide. Make it easy and everywhere, and only allow Level 2 chargers at…

Certainly looks better than the new US Mail truck, it’s one goofy looking SOB

I don’t remember hearing anything about magnets.  But like I said it follows a precise set path, that’s SUPER easy to program, rely on FSD for the like x feet from tunnel exit to parking spot, and have the “trip” initiated by the rider, it’s not super hard when you have full total and complete control of the…

Interesting I remember seeing a good bit when it first dropped, but I rarely see them anymore, same for their other truck/suv offerings.

I mean Honda you do you, but ummmm Nissan big trucks and suv’s aren’t exactly huge movers over here.

Honestly this ranks up there with carbon credit as just being a massive scam.  Like I’m gonna keep polluting but pay company x millions of dollars for credit against my pollution. Like the company your paying isn’t polluting less that they would have if you hadn’t payed them.

Exactly, this morning it was 30 I had on my work shirt a fleece hoodie and then a heavier leather jacket, get to work heavy jacket comes off lol. You can always add more.

Its funny I was thinking about when we were in Colorado, all the other family had like long johns, sweat pants/shirt then skit pants and heavy jacket I was like t shirt and ski pants/jacket and that’s it. Like it was cold, it was a good bit below zero if my 30 years ago memory serves, but it wasn’t bad. Here in Texas…

Disagree the more charging that gets built out, and more importantly faster charging will make owning an EV a non issue for a lot of people. And to be honest the whole range anxiety thing is way over blown for all but the longest super commuters. That said an EV with an actual real world no matter the conditions,…

That’s my whole point lol.

Exactly, anyone abandoning their car for any conceivable reason, like ANY reason, out of gas, broke down, flat tire, shit fire, is not going to be thinking about leaving their keys. I mean never leaving your keys in your car is kind of drilled into you from the time you learn to drive both to not lock yourself out and…

I mean on one hand don’t abandon your car in the middle of the fucking road, BUT on the other hand I can’t think of a single situation where I would be abandoning my car somewhere for any reason and be like you know what let me leave the keys. DOUBLY so with most modern cars being push button start like you never even…

Yeah it’s like the air is hot sticky syrup, and worse above a certain point in humidity sweating no longer works to cool you. Spent a summer in west Texas and it was well over triple digits everyday but I swear it “felt” like it was in the 70's

“Acclimatization can be funny sometimes.”

Never been to Minnesota, but spent a few weeks skiing in Colorado with family.  To me I would prefer cold, not 50 below, but like I have always said if your cold you can always put more on, if your hot you can only take off so much before they arrest you lol.

Yeah we were on a road trip up the west coast and stayed in a small hotel on the border between Oregon and Washington and they didn’t even HAVE an AC, but I remember hearing about it being in the 80's/90's and the news warning people and I just sat back an laughed in Texan. On the flip side we had that winter…

“Also, just a reminder, if you live in an area that closes schools when it gets too hot, maybe don’t make fun of the South for shutting down for one or two winter storms a year. Air conditioning was invented, like, over a hundred years ago. You should let your kids try it sometime.”

“Yes, planes and ships have been largely autonomous for years. They do not have collision avoidance.”
