Maybe we're just lucky ?♂️. All I know is that my electric bill (entire house is electric) is under $100 a month year round and our entire grid didn't implode with the first flake of snow, leaving people to freeze in their houses.
Seems like rolling brown outs and privately owned power companies go hand in hand. We will definitely need to improve grid efficiency/capacity and develop more sources for power, but I have this sense that mismanagement and deferred maintenance issues would be a good place to start to take up a...
Not sure, but I would guess natural gas mostly. Wind and solar play a part and the PNW sells quite a bit of surplus electricity to CA. I would like to see us revisit nuclear, especially if we can force Bezos's fleet of Space Penises to jettison the waste out to Pluto.
Snazzberry is gorgeous. I've been regretting ordering Sarge a little bit. One thing that has made it easier to swallow is that I've seen Snazz on a fair amount of vehicles through the Stellantis lineup around here and haven't seen very many Sarge Jeeps. Obviously I like Sarge too and can't...
In the Pacific Northwest, something like 2/3 of our electricity is generated via hydro. We also have abundant wind power and even some solar. It's the perfect place for electric or PHEV adoption. On top of that, our electricity rates are the lowest in the country. In addition, at least where...
If you're going to protect the paint, ie ceramic coating, I believe that it costs less if you get it done soon. Less to prep/paint correct. The rest you can figure out as you go. Like people have said, get to know your Jeep and your needs. It will probably save you from buying stuff that you...
Extra stopping time is critical. A lot of headaches can be avoided by driving ahead. Need to exit in a mile? Get over now. Sudden moves are not your friend.
As far as backing a trailer, use your side mirrors. My dad taught me to chase the trailer with your steering wheel to correct it. For...
Lighten up, Francis. I was being tongue-in-cheek. I think Mojaves are great in all honesty. And thank you for catching me in such a blatant lie. It's not a $10,000 difference, but rather a *checks calculator, abacus, and slide rule* $9630 difference.
This is the same experience I had with my JL, although I wasn't really paying attention to when the transmission sorted itself out. I just kind of had an epiphany one day, like "Wow! The transmission is so much better now!" Found that 16-1700 rpms was best for mileage and around 2000 rpm was...
