@Hootbro you had a good comment. However.... I'd wager over half of the US population have favorable EV conditions.
They're here...they're the future and not going away. If US manufacturers want to bet on an administration like the current one staying in power for the next 20 years I think that...
Those panels at the bottom left I got to cut those palm trees down... they are costing me money....
As for my faith and trust in EVs I did install my EVSE ( they are mains extensions not chargers the charger is onboard the car ) on an outside fence post and I charge it in the driveway. If it...
What I really need to do is get rid of my gas appliances LOL. What really enrages me is when people say solar is a scam. I guess if you have full shade at your house year round....
This system in San Diego can power an air conditioner running at 67° year round, charge two EV's year round, and...
Yes, 0. $35k solar system paid for itself in 2.5 years. Instead of $1,200/mo electric bill ( No EV then ), it's now $25/mo....mandatory taxes and fees. Even with the EV I'm still $25/mo due to NEM 2 metering. Now I don't pay $400ish a month in gasoline to drive to work and drive my kids to...
Found a pic of my install. I used 1 divider. You can use more if you need them. Tell @813 Fabrication & Design what you need.
The only modification you do to the vehicle is one small slit on each side of the under seat fabric for the locking brackets.
I am not affiliated with him...
If you want a locking solution that maintains the storage space you have now and is not a limited pile of junk like the locking Jeep box.... reach out to @813 Fabrication & Design . He makes an awesome replacement with dividers if you want them.... locks....secure....easy install. Molle... no...
Dude these people are hopeless. It's a shame that abundant energy became a political topic and people picked sides like a football team or something.
People who own EVs bring receipts. People who have never owned or driven one think they're some kind of subject matter experts. They know... they...
' I saw a guy on the Internet who needed a new EV battery after 1 year '
Yeah? I saw many guys here who needed a new Gladiator engine after 3 months.
These are outlier anecdotes and rare. The vast majority of EV battery packs will last 15 years or more, 300,000 miles or more. FACTS.
You guys...
You absolutely do not change the battery every 4 years or so. I have no idea who put that into your head. Well.... I actually do. I spend absolutely no time charging. The vehicle charges while I sleep. Once a week I plug it in at 8pm, it's done by 2am, and I unplug it when I leave in the AM and...
The most taxpayer subsidized thing on Earth is oil. Gasoline is cheap in the United States because of massive taxpayer subsidies. How much blood, sweat, and treasure have we spent in the Middle East for oil? My bad I forgot those wars were because we wanted to spread democracy.
Stating that EVs...
BEVs are far less complex than hybrids. LOL at luddites srs. Muh gas. China is going to win yet another battle due to ignorance here. Canada is going to bring their BEVs in. US manufacturers are toast.
Jeep does suck at electrification though. GM is great at it.
One thing I never realized was...
Most services suck compared to 1.44Mbps Redbook audio ( Compact Disc ). Preferring the vastly superior audio fidelity of CD doesn't make you old. There's also something better about listening to a CD instead of having the attention span of a ferret on a double cappuccino skipping through tracks...
California always finds a way to win though. A law was passed where they are going to charge customers a minimum electric fee based on your income. That makes sense.....right? Hopefully it doesn't stand up in court. Imagine your utility costs are based on your income. I guess it's no fair that I...
Would be $1200 spring/summer/fall ( gets 110 here some months... I am 20 miles from the beach but on the other side of a mountain range where it's pure desert ) and $500ish winter. That's WITHOUT the EV. Luckily with electricity I was able to do something about it. My house gets full sun I have...
I guess the question is why do I stay here I was born and raised in San Diego and I feel like the people who suck should leave it's my town but yeah I sure am getting robbed
