Took the Plunge EV

[#41]

Well.... I like the color.

I agree with not conveying a negative point here as it isn't my business what one spends their $$$ on. For me personally??? No way will I ever own an EV vehicle. PERIOD!!! Whatcha gonna do if and when the electrical grid goes down? And parking it in the garage!!! One only needs to look at that nightmare that has occurred. Internal combustion has been around far longer than electric vehicles, and one only needs to look at the original offerings back when the automotive world was just beginning. A failed experiment. Granted, with new technology and today's engineering, a lot has been accomplished. But PT Barnum has always been right. Needs vs wants...I rest my case...cr8crshr/Bill

I wonder if the anti-ev people are going to refuse to use the electric shopping carts at the stores.

They are for those who are mobility-limited or disabled. I am a disabled Veteran, but I still walk and use a push cart every time I go to the grocery store or other stores. Hard to compare either to one another as each is a different category of electric conveyence!!! cr8crshr/Bill

I too like the body design, it's a helluva lot better than the previous modern designs...but slap a Hemi in that thang. No way, EV.

I was waiting for the first silly comment, and here it is. What does a shopping cart have to do with automobiles ? Please tell us... what is the range of those carts on mountainous terrain with A/C on while traveling on a 1000 mile trip ? What is the time frame for recharging ? What is the cost difference from KPH vs. MPG on those carts ?

Peel Out. I have a Pa. Peel Out vanity plate ordered

Good choice of plate.....I like that.

Car looks OK to me.... I hope it goes well and you get decent range out of it. Congrats on the purchase.

Hence my reply, as it struck me as really an idiotic comment, but I wanted to at least be polite in doing so. They are everywhere, are they not??? cr8crshr/Bill

Will a V8 Hemi even fit in those? They were designed for an inline 6.

I just bought a battery powered push mower. I think that's the best way to dip your toe in the EV water.

I have a Stihl battery powered mower now also......only have a 45-minute lawn to mow.....even though it can take up to 3 hours.

"Innerweb grab" .... mine is self-driving also....but you have to be there.

 

[chargervert]

Don't park the EV in the garage with your classic Mopar! They spontainiously combust!

 

[DeltaV]

I have to ask. Where are the speakers located for the Fratzonic exhaust sounds.

...and can you make them sound like the Chrysler Turbine car?

As a kid I would try to work out how to power one with a battery. That could be a fun neighborhood cruiser with a lithium battery.
