Out of curiosity how many of you who say you can't take a road trip in an EV have taken a road trip in an EV?
I have. It's painless, and cheap. As I said before I bring receipts.
Oh it's so slow... I think I charged here for 10 minutes. Jeep would have cost 10x more in gas price. This road...

Lithium is mined once and used for years, then it can be recycled. Gasoline requires drilling, shipping, refining, and burning oil every single time you drive. One is a front-loaded material input; the other is a permanent daily extraction and combustion cycle. If you’re worried about...
By the way I noticed no one noticed I had 83 miles at 24%. I've heard EV's are "not ready yet" and they have "no range".
I guarantee you my gas Gladiator cannot possibly go 83 miles on a quarter tank.
Imagine how politically biased and algorithm-driven you have to be to think 335 miles is low...
20x 400w panels, 13x 480w. 14.24kW. All of the South facing panels are street facing so they are the very beautiful solid black panels we put the ugly commercial panels which are more powerful in the backyard roof lines. The 20 400s are South facing.... 9 480s West, 4 East.
SoCal has been shit on by rain this month. Also had 3 wrestling tournaments in El Centro basically a bad month for solar production and charging the car to drive to the tournaments. Still net export. Love Enphase app.... those orange spikes going down are definitely the EV.
As far as batteries I don't think I would ever install any. Use the EV. Our Blazer has a 102KwH pack. I don't have the infrastructure installed at my house to plug my car into my house but I can do it for about 5k. Instead of paying $20,000 for 20KwH.... just use your EV during power outages...
No batteries. NEM 2. My overproduction pays for everything I use when the sun is down . 17 years left of that. If I am still alive when my grandfathering runs out I will definitely need batteries.
The fact that there's not a Mojave 392 is comical. The purpose of the Mojave deserves a V8.
My 3.6 Gerbil I mean V6 works it's ass off in the desert..... a V8 would make it perfect. Never needed a V8 ' rock crawling '. lmfao that the Rubicon Wrangler trim is where Jeep thinks a V8 is needed...
