Ours has a fuel air vent....that the cheap builder insert we inherited basically blocked. sigh.

10 fatalities across the entire US car population? definitely noise.

350 miles w/o stopping?  That’s gonna be 5 hours minimum.   Most people stop more frequently than that.

If you’re charging at a 240v outlet at home, a full recharge is more likely to exceed 14 hours on the fast Ford.

They also don’t mention the fact that you might be able to outrun them distance wise, but most predators are going to catch you before you run a distance.

caveat to every animal on earth. The African Wild Dog (pack) excels at long distance, medium speed chases.

Make sure to seal it with candle wax for that extra deep heating

re: Chevy Volt - I remember looking at one when it came out and yeah, just wow no trunk space

I’m not sure I follow you...EVs are almost to a one faster than any equivalent ICE. Tesla’s beat literal super cars years ago.

Exactly. Dealerships are “in spite of” not “because of”.

I had my convertible in the mid 90s before cell phones, so there wasn’t the accoutrements of accessories to worry about being stolen. But it was also good incentive to not keep crap in the car.

Don’t believe I said my bills literally went down, apologies if I implied that. But you will see a reduction in electric usage due to these bulbs.

ten year break even on a $7500 system is a reduction of ~$60 per month. That’s a *significant* bill reduction for anyone.

The pricing diff is negligible at this point.

Yes I’m sure.

Some things use more power but refrigerator and AC units are significantly more efficient than a decade or 2 ago and those are significant savings.

The problem is the ‘middle’ ground is much farther than we are. We’re just seeing the tip of the climate disaster coming, it’s going to get much much worse.

We *have* to get off fossil fuels, basically yesterday.
