They had a range extension trailer for the original Tesla roadster. I don't know how popular it was... The main issue with that is the total efficiency isn't that great. If you're not taking frequent long trips, than it seems

The Prius Prime is the PHEV version, which is more expensive than the standard Prius. It has the same gas engine and nearly the same gasoline range as the standard Prius (it gets slightly lower MPG due to the increased weight). You're

I'm real curious as to which hybrids you've been taking trips in. A gen 4 Prius can easily do 600 miles at highway speed. A gen 3 should be able to do at least 550 on a full tank. That's nearly 8 hours at 70mph. There's

I've taken multiple long trips in my Toyota Prius, and never once had to pee in the bushes. 600 mile range on a single fill-up, but after driving for a few hours I'm usually ready for a 5 minute break. I totally get how cool EVs

Certainly those channels have never been marketed as "a channel for white people" as an explicit statement. Just because they are channels for white people and white American culture doesn't change that.

The structure is the whole point. As I understand it, you can link together nearly arbitrary sequences of amino acids. But a random string of AAs will just result in a jumbled protein that doesn't do anything useful. Specific structur
