Why not both: Cities not all downtown skyscrapers there is a lot of open surface parking in many cities if you go out to the municipal border of the city.

All for it, and as others have mentioned, not coming back to a blazingly hot car in the summer is another benefit. That being said, most cities don’t have large sprawling parking lots because land = money. Would be good in suburbia, however.

Exactly. I'm struggling to feel any sympathy for car dealerships. The car I'm in the process of buying right now is direct sale from the manufacturer (an EV) 

I don’t have a violin small enough to play for them.

I’m not going to worry about the dealers. I’m sure somehow they will turn this credit to their advantage to fleece customers

I guess they need to carry sidewalk chalk so they can draw them their own personal space wherever they are parked.

My personal favourite is to tape a crayon to a page from a coloring book and leave it with a note “maybe this will help you to stay in the lines”.

Australians are apparently pretty sensitive, considering they live in a country where it rains spiders.

Sounds like a classic Trojan Horse to get you to consent to waiving your rights. I wouldn’t trust it either.

Do you consent to letting this application send you notifications?*

Better read every line of any agreement/permission you give that app...

Exactly my point from the beginning. The capital cost is too high for the savings unless you drive that “just right” amount - far enough to generate a lot of savings, not so far that range becomes an issue. And it’s not like electricity is free - even if you have your own solar, you still paid a lot of money for that.

“consumers still don’t view EVs as a bargain buy.”

I think Canada Dry still uses real ginger extract, which is technically ginger.

I mean, if reasonable consumers already know there is missing fruit juice from your beverage, then labeling them as missing ingredients won’t hurt your sales, right? right? 

As a “reasonable consumer” I would prefer drinks are marketed with a glaring, “Contains no [insert name of missing fruit juices here]” next to the name of the drink on the menu.

From the article:

Yeah, no.

You’re assuming the Hertz employee knows those things. I agree, they should, but it’s a roll of the dice if they actually do. Plus, I wouldn’t be surprised if they hadn’t scheduled enough staff to cover the front desk while the employee helped out.

While I have zero expectations of hertz employees being helpful, when I did reserve an EV Hertz did send me emails with tutorial links on how to operate the Tesla. As it was my first time driving this was helpful because I didn’t receive any help when I picked up the car, nor did they inform me there was no adapter…
