Van sales to Amazon?

Mike Birbiglia hates you. I used to think I was an early person, but I've realized that I'm an early person only when I feel a high cost of being late. Otherwise it varies a bit.

Why start now? He's been making stuff up for years whenever he feels it's beneficial. FSD is a money sink if people don't pay for it, it's mostly a software switch to enable it, and the value of Tesla depends heavily on it. So, yes, he's going to oversell it.

Do you have FUSC on your X?

Interesting.

I suggest here, and every social media site you can. Somebody Is Watching. And probably just cancel the credit card.

I think you meant 150kW and 250kW.

Public transportation?! Did you look up where they live? It's fine to try to find value. But, personally, I think that you should extract as much use out of an EV as soon as you can, because manufacturers both want to control access to their software, and ditch older battery technology as...

Alt Splitter! https://teslamotorsclub.com/tmc/threads/supercharger-glendale-wi-bay-shore-mall.244938/ It turns out that Glendale, WI is already under construction. That will split the 125.7 mile gap, 77 miles from the start at I-39 near Beloit, IL, and 49.4 miles to Sheboygan, WI.

It's just part of the cost-cutting they need to deal with the China lockdown supply chain disruptions, the slow ramp of the 4680 and associated technology, and resulting effect on ramps of the factories in Austin and Berlin, as well as potential reduction in sales from the recession. Right now...

UK new vehicle sales automatic (I assume including xEVs): 2012: 20% ... ... ... ... 2017: 40% 2018: 43% 2019: 49% 2020: 55% Based on my learning experience I suggest considering how well they'll take to clutch control. Also consider whether when they'll actually have a car and their income at...

The EIA Electric Power Monthly is delayed due to hardware failure. They're working on system restoration, https://www.eia.gov/pressroom/releases/press505.php I am sad.

Yes. Because charging shouldn't depend on having a smartphone or even cell service. Also, people without BEVs aren't looking for chargers, so often don't know that there are chargers. The more they see, the better it is.

https://www.oregon.gov/owrd/WRDFormsPDF/alt_res.pdf Water rights are a big thing. So specifically, rainwater harvesting is intercepting the falling rain for your use. When it hits the ground, then it's subject to water rights.

No. But there are restrictions on volume and use. https://worldpopulationreview.com/state-rankings/states-where-it-is-illegal-to-collect-rainwater However, it _was_ illegal, and the barrel rule was added in 2016: https://www.npr.org/2016/05/19/478643452/rain-barrels-are-now-legal-in-colorado

Yes, but as @nwdiver keeps saying, renewables are a way to use less fossil fuel and we're nowhere near "whole renewable". So just build cheap backup. That they didn't was their mistake. Hydrogen from catalyzed electrolysis is _a_ way to use the excess, and given that we need hydrogen anyway...

I don't believe it has sensors, I think it just adjusts to the relative shift in the satellites. Some boaters have tried disabling the motors.

I saw one like that at a park by falls in Rumford, ME There was a Leaf charging. I was going to plug in our Kona briefly into the other one, but I couldn't get the plug to come out. It's good to see. Existing urban furniture makes it cheaper to install.

Can the pin be moved a bit so Supercharge.info/Mapbox doesn't think it's on I-5 itself? Sutherlin, OR Host Type: Tesla Host: Tesla Along Primary Interstates: I-5 Along US Numbered Highways (<=5mi): None Along Auxiliary Interstates: None I-5 From: Myrtle Creek, OR - 33.4 miles To: Creswell...

Because then they have control of it. It's China, if they can control it, they will. EVGo 50kW here often have reported failures. But I do wonder how much is that there's only 1 charger, so if it doesn't work people can't try another/the other stall. So that gets reported to EVGo and...

Now we have splitters. These 2 locations will not only split the largest gap on I-5, but the gaps will drop below 50 miles.

They never said Supercharging would always be free. I remember Straubel saying they'd look at it later. Any chance of swapping in a Tesla was killed by tank mode.

Given that they're going to be a Bezos customer for engines, I'm sure they're happy to be positive about it.

Indeed. WHN is a group founded in October 2021, with an aim of eliminating COVID-19, opposing a policy of living with it.

Ennis, TX was on the original list of locations in the partnership, 0048. https://teslamotorsclub.com/tmc/threads/tesla-partnership-with-buc-ees-26-new-locations.247032/

They have the VIN and can look up the title. So unless somebody does a runner, they can go after them.

There are still other tightening of standards to come in that could lead to a de facto ban.

Depending on how energetic and leaky the distribution of natural gas is, running coal plants can be no worse than or better than NG for CO2e emissions. So, I'm not really concerned about it. What matters more is what they're doing for adding renewable capacity.

Except they have to pay for the electricity, including any additional demand charges, you don't know how much extra they earn in parking fees due to the program, and they're there to make money and can do whatever they like.

Other manufacturers have done that. There have been waiting lists for a lot of newer EVs for at least 3 years.

Indeed it's old. They launched it in 2017. I don't know that Plug&Charge it's really much better for scalability,. , but it's more flexible because (I believe) it doesn't depend on having an account with the charging network. Autocharge depends on having an account with the charging...

https://www.electrifying.com/blog/article/it-s-official-tesla-opens-up-uk-supercharger-network-to-non-tesla-drivers Aviemore is one of the included sites. I assume they fixed the bug. It was discovered 9/2020.

In the UK, before COVID hit, used PEV prices were already increasing. In the USA, which has low fuel taxation, demand will vary more with fuel prices, but I think that demand will be greater than supply for some time, as BEV production is supply-constrained and other markets take a big chunk of...

122 years and 164 days is the longest lifespan so far. (Unless you believe the bible, of course.) That's without any genetic engineering.

I've never had a problem with a credit card reader at a gas pump. Must be electrical interference or something.

The car has a screen and games. What it needs is a game that takes you through the features.

The weight problem is not just a Bolt problem. Bjørn Nyland has dealt with it on multiple EVs at Ionity. The lesson was learned in the plug design for the Megawatt Charging System.

No.

Oil/gas companies are already looking at green hydrogen from offshore wind farms. Same way that oil/gas companies power pipelines with solar, and are building wind farms to provide power to offshore oil rigs.. They just ask "Is this cheaper?" The only mandate you need is "Take the power or pay...

That would be good. it's on US-183 which doesn't have a Supercharger before that point. First is Austin, TX 156.6 miles away. Although, it's 103.5 miles from the start to the Buc-ee's, so annoying the location would still be over 100 miles from the start.

It seems to be the other way round here. EVGo's old 50kW CCS at their 1 + 1 stations are reported to be unreliable (by PlugShare reports) but together, my wife and I have used all 5 ChargePoint CCS locations north of Portland, ME and never had a problem. (Only just realized we'd done that!)...
