I don't push that button. I just slide my hand across it. Works nearly always.

Wait, what?! why wouldn't you get recalls done as close to home as possible? Why would your family consider the EV decision an error? what if you moved hundreds of miles away? Would you still get the truck serviced at the original dealer? Sounds crazy.

He instead purchased an aftermarket adapter on Amazon, "since I am impatient." ... Ultimately, the Rivian owner's adapter didn't work, so he decided to leave and head to a nearby EVGo charger This makes me think that he bought a L2 adapter, so it wouldn't have worked.

I think that the best part of supercharger locations is number of plugs. For example, in Quartzite, AZ, the EA location has 4 plugs, while nearby Tesla has 84. Even if a few of the were out of order (it does happen), you still have a bunch available. Even if they are busy, the wait time...

Look around the world. Everywhere, government means corruption. That includes countries where the is no private industry. Name one thing that government had put it's grabby fingers into that actually got better as the result. I understand the need for government in some things, but the less...

Not just inefficient, but rife with grift and corruption. The world would be a better place if governments did less not more.

Yes, they do. Which is why insurance premiums are on the rise. When insurance companies lowered auto rates during COVID lock down, no one whined. Today, people drive more, get into more accidents, and parts are more expensive.

All insurance companies are regulated by state government. Some states do a better job than others. Please move to California, so you can directly observe government "efficiency" in action.

Then who is going to put up the initial capital, so that the insurance company doesn't go tits up in the first couple of years? I'll give my own example. When I got my MME, my premium was $550 for 6 months. After 2 years ($2,200) I had an at fault accident. The insurance payout was over...

Because government is so efficient at managing everything it touches :ROFLMAO: :ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO: Keeping in mind that insurance companies are already regulated by state government. The CA government has done such a great job that several insurance companies are fleeing the...

Wait, What? Do you really expect an insurance company to not make a profit? How would that work?

Simple fact is that Ford ended up with limited number of all '22 trims. Since the Pro's ran out first, they probably could have sold more, but the didn't make enough to fully satisfy demand. Also, need to keep in mind that many wanted higher trims simply because they wanted ER battery.

So where was the "token gesture" from GM or Tesla?

Except that $39K Lightning did appear, if only in limited numbers.

Since we're talking Pro trim, it should be: 66,667 kWh / 98 kW = 680.3

I would think that the covers would impact cooling more than heating.

I think that one of the problems people have with service and repair is that their dealers' service departments totally suck. I live in a large metropolitan area, and it took me a while to find a dealer with decent service. When a dealer responds with "leave your vehicle here and we'll...

One note. If the truck is mostly driven around town, as OP says, then efficiency may be a bit higher. I am getting around 2.8 miles/kWh. Highway driving will be lower.

Before you pick a charger, check with your utility to see if they have a rebate or reduced price for some specific models. For example SRP in AZ currently sells Chargepoint for $350, compared with normal price of $550. After that, get an estimate from an electrician to install it. The cost of...

That works great when you and your wife are together.
