They are reality-based concepts.

I've watched a number of Rich Rebuilds videos on repairing wrecked Teslas, and it is interesting to see how they are put together...his current project is installing an LS in one. -

I don't think I've ever had a vehicle without a full size spare. I need to see what my Jeep has, don't recall looking at the spare except when I was doing the walk-around w/ the salesman almost 4 years ago. -
I wonder if there are any original parts on the restored car? Seems like it was in pretty bad shape..maybe only the vin tag original?

The disguised prototype looks like the same dumpy thingy in the rendering video from China. -

Maybe it will be Trax sized w/ Blazer styling cues? Or a mini Trailblazer? -
At least they weren't K-cars. In the '80s cop show 'Night Heat' (filmed in Toronto) the detectives drove Reliants...IIRC, there were ones in police lights and livery also. I wonder if the Toronto police actually had them...

After 3 1/2 years of working remote full time, going back to an office and a commute would take some adjustment. I do like sleeping in until 7:30..

They are fun...I like their version of 'Always On My Mind'...

If I have to work in an office again anytime soon, I'd definitely want to get the vaccine before being in a cube farm around other human resource units. Hopefully I'll find another remote gig, my current one is winding down most likely in mid-February after 6 1/2 years.

Yeah, I was thinking a range under $40k..like $35k or thereabouts...or $30k...isn't the average new car price now about $38k? -

Since Toyota has so long been on the Hybrid bandwagon (with some diversion to fuel cells), I wonder when they will get on the BEV bandwagon? A Rav4 BEV w/ good price and range could be a hit for them.... -

It seems like no one yet has hit on the magic formula to make a profitable EV for $30k or less. There are more under $40k coming, though...like the VW id.4. -

So the Mach-e has 29.7 ft³/59.7 ft³ of cargo space...to compare to what I know, a WK2 GC has 36.3 ft³/68.3 ft³ of cargo space. Only on a couple of occasions has that been too small for me. -

Robert Hall replied to G. David Felt's topic in Alternative Fuels & Propulsion
I'd assume the Mach-e has a frunk also, since it doesn't have the ICE pack up there, and no floor tunnel for a whirly tube or exhaust.. -

Robert Hall replied to G. David Felt's topic in Alternative Fuels & Propulsion
Probably because of the sleeker, sportier shape.. Escape has more cargo space...the Mach-e cargo space is very similar to the e-tron and Macan, which seems to be more the competition for the Mach-e. Mach-e has considerably less cargo space than even the Model-Y, which seems like another target competitor.. -

Robert Hall replied to G. David Felt's topic in Alternative Fuels & Propulsion
The Mach-e has a 5 inch longer wheelbase than the Edge, and is within 2 inches of the 2 row Edge in length. The Escape is much smaller. -

Robert Hall replied to G. David Felt's topic in Alternative Fuels & Propulsion
Interesting...hadn't thought about comparing a Mach-e to the tiny Escape...I would have thought more of comparing it to the Edge. -
Oh yeah, definitely getting cabin fever after spending most of the last 9 months at home...looking to the world returning to something resembling 'normal'.. no idea when I will get back on an airplane.. but I really, really would like to spend a week in the Colorado mountains...

You guys are making me hungry....not sure what I want for lunch.

Robert Hall replied to G. David Felt's topic in Alternative Fuels & Propulsion
That wouldn't make sense...maybe instead an Equinox-shaped EV at the price of a fully loaded Equinox? Why would an BEV be cheaper than the equivalent ICE vehicle? -
One of my favorite Led Zeppelin tracks...'In the Evening'.. She's interesting...can't recall the track, but did see an LDR video that had a '69 Mustang in it...

Just a suggestion, have you thought of adding 'blu to your Ignored Users list? Might be a good way to reduce your agita with him... I don't have anyone on Ignore here (I like to see posts from everyone), but do use it judiciously on another forum I frequent that uses the same software as here...
