The Model 3 has its problems, but I actually find the outward visibility to be excellent. It has one of the lowest beltlines and dash boards since an early 90s Honda and the pillars aren’t too thick by modern standards.

There have been spy shots of the next-gen Ranger with a PHEV system. That would be sweet if it comes here.
Yup. They know the regulatory value (cost) of the credits, and can tweak the residual value to offer crazy low price leases to move them.
Agree. We moved from a 500e (FIAT, not Mercedes) to an i3 REx to a Bolt to a Kia Niro EV. Have a gasoline car as a second car. Although the FIAT and BMW were fine runners, can’t imagine moving away from the range of the Bolt or Niro.
Agree. Back in the day (`10 years ago), we had a FIAT 500e (one kid, one big dog), and then moved to an i3 REx (two kids, one medium dog). The EV was our second car; we also had old gasoline-powered Accord with a lift kit. The short range BEV worked great as a second/commuter car, but we plugged it in at home and work…
In all fairness to Telluride, it actually is good to excellent at everything it does, looks nice inside-and-out, and is (was?) competitively priced.
You even can spec out a Tahoe or Suburban with front bench!
6’6” but I don’t like feeling like I’m sitting at the bottom of a well while driving.
Is the beltline so high it goes over the tops of your ears?
This.
What about passive safety features:
“openness to chance” was intended to be “openness to change.” #needmorecoffee
You sir, have a healthy balance between appreciating the past and openness to chance. What’s your secret?

Happens with surprisingly frequency in San Francisco at the Duboce and Church MUNI stop.
Drove a prototype PHEV Dodge Ram 1500 4x4 crew cab back in ~2012. Work got to demo one. It was awesome. Did truck things: traversed fire roads, hauled fire wood, took us camping, commuting, got groceries...
And the “footprint” loophole in the regs will let them.
Yeah true. I should have been more clear. 2nd-gen PHEV.
It’s platform-mate the Escape has a PHEV version. Is one coming here? That sweet electric torque would be awesome.
