If you get an ORF layover I can drop some by the hotel.

I can't legally sell what I make at home, and I'm under a NDA so I can't say what beer at what place is mine if you hit the local breweries.

Of course this has to wait until the Army, Air Force and Navy can all come to an agreement with what to do with me.

Navy guy, on an Army deployment stuck in quarantine on a USAF base.

Operation enduring cluster continues.

Youve got to admit, it’s one of the most perplexing questions man has ever faced.

There is absolutely no need to talk about Miatas for 10 pages when ICE cars are on the verge of being obselete. Sheer waste of money when you can get a Model 3/Y or Mach E with significantly better performance for significantly lower ownership costs

What's the limit on the power grid?

10% of pop? 20%? 30%? 50%? Those cars need juice. So do your homes. At what point is the grid stressed to a point something needs to give. Forego heat and cooling to charge the cars or vice versa?

Battery operated cars have a place, as a major party - no. The .gov has made it almost impossible to construct new, reliable power generation (fossil fuels/nuclear are the only reliable sources).

+++++++++++++++ Now BOT (back on topic) +++++++++++++++++++++++
My side hustle is fishing boats. We own several. My partners and I are about to own the boat to store. That is where you make the $$$. You control the whole chain. When they are selling fish in the store for $30/lb, people are scarfing it up, we own the supply to distro - not a bad place to be.

Miatas suck BTW - unless you are less than 5'5" and are double jointed.

Bring it.

Go look at the power consumption chart. The gas pump is like an LED light compared to the stadium light show of the battery car. Not even close. Nice try though

No more derail.

Self sustaining home with a solar roof and a medium sized wind turbine and you are a supplier, not a consumer. Tesla wall and an EV or 2 give you the storage capacity to reliably not worry about either source.
