Aren’t you mixing up GM brightdrop vans with Rivian vans which are now for sale to anyone not just Amazon?

From my understanding it's just very complicated but there are a few main factors. The biggest one is, IMO, that for both home and auto insurance, the more expensive it is to resolve a claim, the more the insurance will have to cost for them to still make a profit. I don't know much about...

Thank you for the brief review. How was your fuel economy? Was it comfortable?

I think it's important to buy safety-certified charging equipment/EVSEs/adapters from reputable name brand companies, and be careful about where you buy it, too. Temu, Aliwhatever, Amazon, eBay, are full of junk that is not safety-certified. Sure, it COULD be perfectly fine and work safely for...

Neat! If I didn’t already have the Prologue I’d be buying a Tesla right now. I expect pics and at least a short review ;) what Tesla did you get!?

O’Reilly ;)

What about listing it on Cars & Bids?

At the auto parts store I work at we sell Honda OEM filters too. They don’t come in a box, just the clear plastic wrap. I feel like they don’t get damaged any more or less often than ones in boxes really. Not like the super thin boxes give any protection anyway. I inspect every filter at the...

This is like saying how much longer will I be able to drive my car. It is a question that cannot be properly answered. It could die tomorrow, it could work another ten years. It could run your existing games great for a long time, or you could get into some new games that take more resources...

The only Mustang I’d buy is the Mach-E, sorry ;)

It’s amazing how much wind makes a difference. With gas vehicles I never noticed it much although it likely affected MPG a bit here and there. The other night I got 3.4mi/kwh on the highway in my Prologue. I couldn’t figure out why as I’m usually closer to 2.4, but then I figured out the wind...

lol vote with your wallet if you don’t like the filters don’t buy them and eventually if they don’t sell well they’ll either make the same ones at a lower purchase price or make a better filter available.

O'Reilly can get it. Some stores stock it, some have to get it, but it's definitely available.

I find this such a strange mashup. Honda and GM with the Prologue/ZDX I understood... same Ultium platform, same batteries, same drive units, almost the same software, and Honda/Acura get EVs to sell for three model years before they come out with their own EV platform while GM gets to scale up...

The progression from a 2nd gen Escape to the Escape-based Bronco Sport is logical... they're both boxy with acceptable ground clearance. But, a Bronco the Bronco Sport is not.

From my understanding they literally have to pay per quart to have the Dexos logo on the bottle.

Do I have the slowest EV on the forum or do we give that title to the Leaf owners on here? I guess I should say I have the slowest "modern" EV on here. Can we trade cars for a week? ;) Jokes aside, I think 5 minute charging is cool but it doesn't really solve any problems. Even with 150kw peak...

You're being really picky with a really tight budget. I'm going to ignore half your requirements with the following post, focusing only on a decent value, decent value that has 1000lbs towing capacity, which seem to be the NEEDS, while discarding the WANTS like "no black interior". If you count...

This is why I think battery swaps are actually pretty dumb. I think it's great the tech is being explored but unless the vehicles are designed from the ground up for this, it's just not practical. And the very fact that batteries would have to be standard across multiple makes and models of...

OK, so basically put the charge port on the rear of the vehicle, make a trailer that's a generator + DC fast charger in one, and have the car plugged into it while towing the trailer. Make it so the car can drive while charging/accepting power from that port (unlike vehicles now where they can...
