My lease has a very clear buyout term. I also saw that aluded to this week, and I was wondering if they have changed or perhaps they want certain vehicles back? Remember the GM EV1 was never intended for buyouts.
On a related note, has anyone renegotiated the buyout? My original residual...
I hit on two of the three as well. I guess it was to keep the "rich" from benefitting. I am far from rich, but do okay, and don't live in a depressed housing area. But, how many of the people who do are buying EVs (any type, brand, or price)?
The headlines are often written by someone other than the writer. So they quickly pull out a “fact” from the article. I’ve been laughing at headline vs story for years.
Because my SO doesn't like it. If I turn it on, then she has to turn it off. LOL. On the other hand, when using BC, I like to push the envelope and speed up a bit when it backs off due to a car in my lane. If 1PD is on, as soon as you then release, you start to decelerate. Minor...
I love this. I had this in my two prior Mercedes SUVs, albeit there wasn't a physical shifter. But I love just turning off the truck and it making sure you are in park!
/TLDR - I could have been locked out of my truck at the mall, after picking up my new iPhone
So, I carry a physical key for the Lightning, but not the MachE. Both are set up for PAAK, which I love. I just can't make myself stop carrying a truck key. For years, when I travel for work, after I...

I've got a classic BMW that sits most of the winter, but I take it out every 4-6 weeks for a quick run out on the highway and back. I check the air in the tires, and keep the fuel level high thorughout the winter. Nothing more needed.
Here's the article if anyone wants to read it;

Most software comes with a shrink-wrapped license. Meaning, you break the shrink-wrap, and the license is in full force, non-returnable. Even though this is a download, the same logic probably applies. You apply the key and open the software, it's yours.
Interstate speed limits are (or at least were) supposed to be set at the 85th percentile of actual moving traffic. Instead, many are artificially set way below the safe speed that traffic actually moves. I can tell you the last time I saw a vehicle doing 55 on the Baltimore Beltway was also...
