@firsttruck While that is in a way a coop the CEO is the one who funded it so as far as I can tell it is being operated like a company just a much smaller one. Lots of outside money was brought in. I do agree not all coops are bad and the one that I live with is particularly bad it is easier...

Being part of a local coop I can tell you from experience they are not anywhere near as good as they are made out to be. Most corporate based power companies in my experience are surprisingly better.

Nope I did not think the whole thing through. Is it something that can be done without any significant technical issues? Definetly. Is it practical? If you are putting the panels on top to power your camper anyways it might be but most likely not. Over the course of the day you might...

I feel personally attacked by that one. :ROFLMAO:

The worst is when it slides or leans sideways into something, lots more damage then.

Many solar systems run in the 400v range, which is the same as the charging system for the Teslas. The max practical solar for a very large 5th wheel might be as high as 5kw. At 400v we are looking at less than 15 amps. A heavy duty 12-10ga extension cord can handle that easily.

Parking brake cable maybe?

With a commercial air craft US rules anyways you are required to have 2 people in the cockpit at all times, one of which is required to be able to take control at any time. When one of the flight crew has to use the restroom a qualified steward/stewardess steps in. Automotive autopilot is far...

Unfortunately Google assistant will not let me know I got a call often times important so I had to turn it off. They stopped calling me after I kept asking technical questions about the trucks with I like that truck but not if it has X-engine transmission combo. Took almost an hour before...

Confirmed it works great, I always try to get a warranty for Ugly, if they don't hang up then I try for the 99 Nissan. After a couple of years of that they don't call near as much.

I could see doing that. I drove further than that in Ugly with no windshield, roof, doors and got caught in a thunderstorm... luckily no hail.

Exactly. If the crash gets to the rigid cells and foam you are already intruding into the passenger compartment in a very dangerous way.

My reservation ID is 36880 from today, estimated delivery is 2023 to 2024 for the 400 mile version.

Due to issues with my current job, and the possibility of my next job being a nearly 200 mile commute per day I put down a reservation for one to give myself some options. I would rather drive the wheels off of a $35,000 vehicle than a $70,000 vehicle, especially when the $35,000 will cost 1/4...

From your previous responses I did get the impression that you were against it.

Yes..... Yes they do.

I have only seen airless tires on bicycles and tractors, so nothing high speed.

Edit to add: Most of the cars that I could afford when I was younger were around my age. Its also how I learned how to work on cars by it being a necessity. No right to repair and those cars may not have been on the road any more. Much of the parts you said, not including #4 and 5 were still...

Of course when you have enough money to buy multiple luxury trucks you tend to not have experience working on them unless they do so as a hobby and tend to be clueless as to the needs of most of the population.

For, his time frame is similar to how long cars last in my arid environment. Still need regular repairs after warranty expires even on a very reliable vehicle. The crazy thing that he is missing is that the entire motor assembly on an EV is simpler to repair than a run of the mill 5 speed...
