    I bought another bike with 1/3 the cc

    Not up on motorcycles. Is it a triumph legit or in name only ?

    First Tesla purchase turning sour.

    If your Tesla had been a dumpster fire you're in a position it would have stung a little to cut your losses and take a hit but not a big deal. Buying a BEV as a long term necessary vehicle, not a toy or without a backup might be more of a risk than the GP understands.

    First Tesla purchase turning sour.

    We all know what the OP does. No doubt if he keeps the car he'll detail it within a inch of its life, take 200 photos in front of the brick house, write a short story and make a little money selling it. Props for to him for testing the EV flipping waters. (y)

    Binocular question - range use

    OP's stated use is shooting at 20 and 40 yards, anything else secondary. An X50 is really unnecessary for shooting but the bit more weight will make them a bit steadier. Also an 8X optic will make your 40 yard target look like it's at 5 yards and a 10X at 4 yards. If you can see shots with a...

    What Factors Are Swaying EV Adoption in the U.S.?

    To be very clear, we can’t all afford a 100k vehicle, never could and never will. If you can that’s great, hope you get a nice one. 👍🏻

    Wife thinks next vehicle should be an EV.

    Made 5 pages before the rants finally begin. To be clear, EV in the case of this thread includes EV, HEV, PHEV. You own an EV of some flavor? EV owners don't go on about what is used to make their electricity. They go on about charging at home, not going to gas stations, how fast they are...

    Wife thinks next vehicle should be an EV.

    Shouldn't this conversation start when EVs became a real buying choice like maybe when Teslas became available for real? The Model S in 2012?

    Wife thinks next vehicle should be an EV.

    Huh? Source of electricity has never entered a conversation we've had about EVs. The EV owners on BITOG never mention source of the electricity they're using. (Except JeffK bragging about his solar farm. )

    Wife thinks next vehicle should be an EV.

    You bring up an interesting question. What is the end efficiency of producing and burning gas and in an ICE vehicle vs the end efficiency of producing a kwh of electricity and using it in an EV? I see 4kwh as the amount of energy needed to produce a gallon of gas. There has to be an overall...

    Costly mistake in time and money- chasing down a cut radio antenna wire

    It's good to keep your motor skills and brain functions working as you get older. Keep at it.;) Too bad you didn't look at the diagram first. 😖

    Wife thinks next vehicle should be an EV.

    We have 2 vehicles, 2021 GMC Sierra HD truck and 02 Jeep Wrangler. Jeep is daily around town driver and offroad exploring ride. Truck tows the travel trailer and is used if going somewhere out of town. We're retired and most trips are under 25 miles round trip. Sometime in the next couple...

    Nice Duramax for sale

    The condition of the whole truck and bed would dispute that. Some would say it's nicely broken in.

    Wife thinks next vehicle should be an EV.

    Not considering a car. If we were there are few cars lower on the list of cars I wouldn’t own than a fiat 500, ICE or EV. Thanks.

    2020 F350 6.7l diesel- oil change at dealer gone wrong

    Yeah these turn into a dogpile but the dealer in question needs some bashing it sounds like.

    Wife thinks next vehicle should be an EV.

    RE: Prius, I should have said no "car" not no sedan, haven't owned a car in 20+ years. I'd rather buy used at this point in our life but used E vehicles make me nervous although the big depreciation hit helps I guess. Maybe something that can have a factory extended warranty added. A PHEV...

    Wife thinks next vehicle should be an EV.

    Wouldn't happen for a couple of years and something would have to change as I won't have 3 and we're still towing a trailer and the jeep is still fun. Whether a BEV, HEV, or PHEV unclear. No sedans and no need to accelerate like John Force or corner like Helio. Not against EVs but not seeing...

    What’s your favorite weed and grass killer spray concentrate?

    Had to look that up. Apparently you want to use a non-ionic dish soap and not all are. Something about the wrong kind of soap formula can interfere with the chemicals in the weed killer. Dawn soap seems to be non-ionic. We happen to use Dawn so might as well try it. How do you tell if it...

    What’s your favorite weed and grass killer spray concentrate?

    I look at the ingredient list, there's always something cheaper than the big name brand. Last summer I got some ACE weed and grass killer same ingredients and % as spectracide for quite a bit less on a sale. @Rand Don't the weeds come back after the flamethrower?
