Cut for time

At we know the tax code everywhere in North America is a mess lol

If your effective tax rate at the top bracket is 38%, you are getting a damn good deal.

Imagine if it were a normal looking truck with that tech. They would have sold millions.

Who is to say they didn’t?

Same here. I pull up and the plug is there. Why not spend 5 seconds to plug it in…

Not everything requires a permit or inspection. Of course, it’s best to hire a licensed electrician who can tell you what is needed.

Bingo.

That’s the problem. It’s copying a playbook from 2018 when there was 0 competition and a TON of EV customers that did not have an EV yet. And, in 2018, there were still plenty of tax credits to go around, making the $45k 2018 MY price actually $37.5k. Eventually the tax credit was halved and...

Non competitive price.

Today 😊 But every year the batteries are bigger and the driving efficiency drops! I suspect we will be pumping in more kwhr overnight. If you get home late and have to leave early the next day, an extra 2 kwhr per hour of charging helps. My first car had a 24 kwhr battery pack and a 4+ mi/kwhr...

That’s what I thought, until I needed all the juice I could get to charge off peak! I’m guessing that it’s a short run the way it’s set up. $500 upgrade should do it for 20% faster charging. And that’s only if he needs to swap out for a larger gauge wire. If not, he could swap the breaker...

I would get an electrician to put in a 60A breaker and the appropriate wires for the higher load. You’ll want to the faster charging and now is the time to do it - before you install anything.

Eh, I think there were some decent Rivian missteps. Judges are pretty good about snuffing out the BS.

While this seems like a silly play by Ford, the title of this post is misleading. In reality, you can pay to have a frunk. Or not have the insert. You are not paying to access something that is already there.

The 17 eats brakes for every meal.

It’s not that far off actually. I’ve spent maybe $4k in 10 years to maintain a Pilot for 100k miles? If you do all the maintenance and don’t have any bad luck, it’s not that expensive to maintain an ICE vehicle. Problem is people skimp on maintenance which always increases long term costs.

If it’s in the manual, I do it. I give them 0 opportunities to deny me warranty repairs.

I’m good. You seem a little over your skis on this one. Eh? Why would it upset me? Also, you really don’t.

Not sure what this gibberish means.
