  1. EV Charging Network Will Target Interstates Before Expanding Into Remote Rural and Crowded Urban Areas

    Your persistence is adorable. But, at least whenever I use public Charge Point locations, I open the app and use it to initiate the charger—and I do this several minutes, aka a few traffic lights, before arriving there. When I get there all I do is open the vehicle’s charge flap and plug in...

    With ChargePoint you can go in the app and get the charger ready before you hand over the vehicle. All valet will have to do is plug in when he’s at the parking/charging spot.
  3. Stealth Camping in the Lightning!

    Better yet, F150 has a flat floor in the back seat area (at least in the current ICE version), so all you need is a sorta short and narrow mattress or air mattress or foam pad. I’m definitely going to do that.
  4. Disappointment Thursday

    While I fully agree with you that it’s ridiculous to subsidize $80K vehicles, it would still help in replacing carbon spewing gas vehicles with clean EVs. And that’s the stated purpose of the whole tax credit. Making it refundable will help many more people benefit from it.
  5. Ford Price Increases

    RIP “starting at under $40K” Maybe, hopefully, they’ll stick to current pricing for current reservation holders.
  6. Lightning Insurance Costs - real numbers

    Damn, let me make a note for future reference to never drive in your area! What are these people doing, texting?
  7. Cybertruck - Vaporware for real this time??

    Tesla is on a mission to electrify transportation, sustainably. Even if Elon really just head faked legacy OEMs into building and hyping EV trucks-without ever intending to build the CT-it would’ve been a success. That said, they will of course build and sell them like crazy starting next year...
  8. F-150 Lightning EV Tax Credits & Rebates - Discussions & Predictions

    Yeah, they have been TALKED about for a while now…. no action….

    Time will tell, but this IS our equivalent of the Model T moment. Or IPhone moment. Or any other truly disruptive new technology. Usually happens pretty fast once it gets going, so I’ll stick to my earlier schedule. But if yours turns out to be correct I’ll certainly be happy too, that would...

    Sure, why not—that’s progress! From the post I was responding to: “we’ll all be dead “; I hope I and everyone else on here will still be very much, and happily, alive!

    Well, I was responding to your post: “He's right though, it's a long, long, long time before renewables overtake fossil fuels. Most of us will be dead.” So go ahead and pick any one of the three and give me a time frame by which you’d think renewables will be over 50%—that’s what I think you...
  12. EV Charging Network Will Target Interstates Before Expanding Into Remote Rural and Crowded Urban Areas

    What year do you think it’ll happen? I’d say 2030 to overtake (meaning over 50%), and 2040 to almost 100%.
  13. EV Charging Network Will Target Interstates Before Expanding Into Remote Rural and Crowded Urban Areas

    Indeed. No learning takes place at Prager “U”because it’s not about learning/ teaching facts. It’s simply a paid mouthpiece for the fossil fuel industry trying to protect its dying business model. Prager tries to look credible by calling themselves a “university”, but it’s not real. I’m sure all...

    And here’s the dish on Mark Mills’ video, I copy/pasted all this from arstechnica but couldn’t have said it better myself: “Mills complains that our best solar technology is only 26 percent efficient. But that's only true for silicon panels; our best, most expensive panels can clear 40 percent...

    As per Wikipedia: “PragerU, short for Prager University, is an American 501(c)(3) nonprofit advocacy group.[4] The organization was co-founded by Allen Estrin and talk show host and writer Dennis Prager in 2009 to create videos on various political, economic, and sociological topics that promote...

    Yes, we are indeed headed towards an all renewable energy future, spearheaded by wind and solar. Debunked Prager U nonsense FUD notwithstanding, sorry.

    Soon a moot point as we’ll all be in EVs within ten years. As it stands now, your neighbors are paying a share of the parking lot repaving, even if they don’t have a car.

    Simply tracks population. Chargers go where drivers are. And yes, gaps need to be, and will soon be, filled.
