This only holds if you assume everyone pulling up to that public L2 needs a 100% charge. Maybe I only need 10-20% and I’ll be done in a half-hour.

If anything, it’s on the dull days when this stuff happens because your mind is more inclined to wander.

Yeah, but you’ll have to buy it in Bitcoin

Yeah, that’s almost pocket money. I hope this goes to someone who knows what to do with it. NP.

Fobs are still very much a thing.

A lot of these home locks have keypads where you can enter a code for redundancy, and pretty much all of them can be unlocked with a physical key. I’d keep one of the housekeys somewhere in the car in the event of the phone becoming non-functional.

I’ve always had a soft spot for the FJ, one of Toyota’s rare flights of fancy.

I have a Mach-E with Phone-as-a-Key and I have to say that it’s addictive to not need to physically handle a key or fob to enter the car. Ford’s implementation was a little buggy but they’ve improved it over time.

They do include fobs with the car.

I swear Mazda is intent on pissing me off with this car. I love the look and the coupe-ish door arrangement and I’d dearly love one. Hearing a range extender was coming gave me hope (especially a rotary one!) but the smaller battery and disappointing DCFC charge rate just suck.

There are people moving from #3 to #1 every day as they see friends/neighbors with EVs and get more familiar with them.

The “strictly-functional” view of rest stops may change with the advent of EVs. If a stop winds up taking 15-30 minutes users may want broader options of things to do while they wait.

4th Gear: This is a minor portfolio adjustment for BH. They still retain a significant chunk of BYD.

It’s also arguably among the best-looking Cadillacs of the 21st century.

I would way rather have a Roadmaster, too, but, arguably, the SS is more collectible. Yeah, I’m going marginal NP on this but I don’t feel great about it.

That’s a fair question, but there are a few answers. 1) Tesla isn’t burdened by the legacy that GM is, and doesn’t have a legacy ICE business to drag it down. 2) Tesla’s EV engineering is still the best in the business, even if others are catching up, and 3) Tesla isn’t just cars, they’re SuperChargers, they’re solar,…

I’m not happy with Musk at all, but $TSLA stock is probably approaching over-sold.

It may be priced for the market, but maybe the market is cracked, too. 

EXACTLY. I don’t mind the car (though it’s probably the all-time low point for the model... at least it’s hard to mess up a wagon), and I like the spec, but they went out of their way to make this unattractive.

This is the ugliest generation of 5-series, though being an Estate mitigates that considerably.
