Not totally true. I give Nigel Wednesdays off. I drive myself to and from golf. So do my buddies, some of them maybe shoudn’t be driving themselves home

I know for a fact that baseball bats worked just fine

I certainly hope they do before I need to retire my '06. 400k miles, and it is past prime for sure, but I don't see anything else suitable for us and our dogs and bikes. Also nice to have a vehicle that can be slept in comfortably and can haul home dimensional lumber with the hatch closed. Speaking of which, why…

As soon as I read this, I thought “Tech Ingredients” and that I “knew” all about this process quite some time ago!

Not saying you are wrong to get a new car every 3-4 years, but I am thinking cars are built better these days (I am old) and replacing a car every 4…

“tiny minority of the population”... provocative assertion. Not arguing, just looking for definition of terms and sources of information. I do not have a public charger within a mile of my (urban) home or office, and it would cost about $20k to get one installed at home. Lets assume, barring any facts, that every…

A local Chargepoint sub-contractor has quoted me $18K to install a 2 port level 2 charger in my small condo complex. In what way is this “not expensive”? Charging stations is where ALL of the subsidies should be going.
