Home Depot has a sale on garden soil so I loaded up with 72 bags! I had the box with the bed cover in the back so I had to put some in the frunk. The guy helping me was shocked when I told him there was more room in the front and then I popped the hood. The look on his face was hilarious. I am...
I got the ER just to have the ability to charge the house with bidirectional that wasn't available on the SR. I don't need the bigger battery and actually don't want it but I really wanted that feature. I have 0 range anxiety since this is my 3rd EV in 10 years (still own all of them) and the SR...
I don't think they are .. seems like the technology has been available for at least 5 years and getting better! Moore's law activate!

I guess it depends on what state you are in. Our state roads are constantly paved and repaired so it would be a very fast install. And I am sure if they use the Federal money from the IRA for chargers, it would go even faster. The County roads are a different story :LOL:
Not to be rude but please read the link I posted about the technology instead of repeating talking points. It really is not helpful and sucks :mad:

Did you see the private company link I posted above? I think this technology is developing much faster than in the past and will happen sooner than you think :) Electricity is already along most highways so it would not be difficult to implement.

I think everyone is forgetting about the potential wireless charging while driving infrastructure that is being tested for semi trucks along highways. This would extend the battery range and allow for smaller battery size and weight. I have seen reports about it being tested in a few states...
I only rent EVs when I have the option. I used Turo on a recent trip to rent a Model Y and have booked the Model 3 Teslas on Hertz when they were available. The experience has been great and since I have driven an EV since 2014 I am use to the challenge. I make sure that I know where the...
I think many are sitting because of added ADM that the dealers are imposing. A friend in NC went to look at a few listed 2022 models at 3 different dealerships near her and every one of them had an ADM of $10K that they added to MSRP. She couldn't justify the added expense and bought an ICE F150...
Yes, I know the charger is in the car. What I have is a cord that has a small box attached that I think is the charge controller to limit the amount of electricity that goes to the car. It is like a bigger version of a power supply to a laptop with a box between the plugs. I guess that is...
I don't have an EVSE .. just the dryer plug connected to the 10G cord and the car charger that I plug into my EV. It a Leaf cable that can support level 2 charging
