All my fellow Volt owners who have gone Tesla don't have any range anxiety issues. People that went Bolt have SOME but mostly they are happy with their path too.

My 2013 Volt is 107K (85K EV miles) strong. Almost ZERO maintenance costs.

Where are you located? The Chevy Bolt is being offered with pretty good incentives. Between those prices, gas savings, etc. Getting a Bolt might make sense.

THIS is why I'm sick of people complaining that pro-organic consumers are "anti-science". Many pro-organic people, like myself, are for organic food because of many reasons including IP issues and pesticide use. Individual

You don't really need Carplay or Android Auto in a Tesla. Those two systems plug in holes in crappy OEM infotainment systems.

Ok.. The problem I've haven been trying to obtain a copy of VMS to try out this very setup. I have tons of old VMS programs I created in college back in '89 I would love to execute again.. In theory you can get a hobbyist free cop

Well, now SpaceX has a way to launch 12K sats for global Internet. No one else is even remotely ready to do that. Talk about your moats.

The OTA updates for car are more important that for any device IMHO. Phones are 'cheap' enough where you can upgrade every two years w/o breaking a sweat. Cars OTOH cost much more and getting software refreshes provides tons

No. That braking problem would have plagued ANY car manufacture. The only difference it there would have been a mad rush of people setting up service appointments at dealerships all over the country to get it fix -- costing time and money f

I found it ironic that Lyft/Uber has been a godsend to the Phoenix area. Cabs were always horrible / impractical here. When I'm in SF and other major cities, I tend to lean towards cabs more.

My 2013vVolt has 105K miles (85K EV / 20K ICE) on it and besides tires and one oil change, I've done NOTHING to it. zippo. It drives like the day I bought it.

My kid was starting make his 'final exam' project in Godot but the importing functionality from Blender 2.8 is all jacked up. Watching these reels, maybe he should give it another shot.

My company provided the first Internet connection for Biosphere 2 in the 1995 timeframe. This was right after the bust, they were taken over by Columbia University. At the time I took a tour of most of the complex and it had a very weird,

To be clear, these are noise cancelling for your ears AND mic. Most of us have the Jabra 75 (over the ear) pair. It definitely helps on conference calls.

My company just moved from a almost completely open floor plan to an open floor plan but plenty of private / huddle rooms. Also we have a very liberal work-at-home options too. So far, the change has been positive. People are able to,

As a current 2013 Volt and soon to be TM3 owner, I agree with most of what you say. However, the TM3 bluetooth integration doesn't need to do as much as the Volt because the built-in infotainment does so much.. phone integration is not
