KYOON GRIFFEY JR posted:Shouldn't make a difference on an individual basis, vehicles are total weight limited to 80,000 lbs in the US. However, less weight for freight means more 80K trucks on the road. Most trucks are not constrained by the weight limit but the ones that are will probably stay non electric, or weight laws will allow an exception.

KYOON GRIFFEY JR posted:I'm almost positive your dealer is lying to you. Nothing on SCRAP-IT site indicates that leases would not be allowed (and that a five year lease would qualify but a three year lease would not). Why don't you contact SCRAP-IT and find out? Also if you pay amt it is the only way to get it.

Stultus Maximus posted:I need to install a level 2 charger in my garage because this 110v poo poo is too slow. Are you sure that is the box they ran the unpowered 220 wire too? Are you sure they actually did what you asked? They should have ran a one ground 3 insulated wire unconnected from your breaker box to somewhere in the garage, or just installed a 220 outlet in the garage like a normal electrician would. Is all of this run from one breaker in your houses breaker box? That is usually what they do for a detached and it is crap. This is AI I just assumed anyone building a garage would have the utility connect a new 200 amp service dedicated too it because you need juice to build that custom fierorrari you been dreaming of.

pun pundit posted:It takes about as much electricity to refine gasoline for 100 miles of driving as it takes to propel an EV 100 miles (although hard numbers are hard to come by, it might be more or less) so you wouldn't need more energy generation. Better energy distribution, certainly, but not more generation. Also it would take this statement being true which it isn't. Shockingly most of the energy a refinery uses to crack oil comes from burning oil and oil waste products directly. Luckily we are able to add capacity using solar and wind in much smaller and dispersed generation then large power plants that need massive scale to be efficient.

Indiana_Krom posted:Battery degradation is a thing that happens no matter what you do, but trying to guess how much one has is a fools errand. Leafs have an app (aftermarket with an obd2 dongle) that reads the gids, essential when buying a used one since the car is designed to lie and hide the true battery condition. Not sure if it works on newer ones.
