Alternative Fuels & Propulsion RANDOM
Robert Hall replied to G. David Felt's topic in Electric Vehicles and Alternative Fuels
I definitely want to check out the new Broncos once they are established. I liked the old Broncos (big and small). Looking forward to checking out the next Grand Cherokee also. -

Yeah... I don't see myself putting a deposit on anything new or buying the first year of a new model or generation... -
My work is so boring these days. But still able to bill for 40 hrs/week, thankful I don't have to commute to an office.

Felt like a fall morning when I got up today...55 outside at 7 am. Sunny and 75 this afternoon, perfect weather to work on the patio. Feels more like September than August.

Yeah, or perpetually not produced otherwise..I know a guy that put a deposit on an Elio which has never materialized. A former coworker that had a Volt and a Bolt put a deposit on a Model 3, and after a couple years hates it so much he's now got a deposit on a Mustang Mach E.. we'll see how that goes. -

Those Kandi cars are being launched in Texas. Think about it...a place known for long distances and huge trucks. Not the ideal market for microcars w/ limited range, I think... -

I was thinking about what I was doing at age 25...I was in grad school at the U of Michigan...walking all over the campus... lots of hills in Ann Arbor. Something like that might have been fun there then... had an SUV then, but a much smaller one with a manual ('88 Bronco II), and my '87 Mustang GT, also a manual..was another 5 years before I got my first automatic--my '00 Grand Cherokee. -

The scooter is hilarious..couldn't imagine using something like that..would have to be in a totally different reality context...maybe if I were still 25 and fit living in a crowded, flat city. But a 5000lb SUV is still my favorite urban commuter vehicle. -
Had to make a trip to the post office, listened to my favorite Sirus XM channels and heard these, great Big 80s tracks..

I do see ice as a potential problem, is it is on Teslas with their stupid door handles..I've read of them freezing and not popping out. But with any expensive EV, it should be inside in a garage..wouldn't have one if it had to be parked outside.

Ford Brazil bought Willys Brazil in the late 60s. In the early 80s they were building CJ-5s w/ the Ford 2.3 Lima 4cyl. Built them through 1983. I knew about the Willys Jeep wagon-based Ford Rural, but not this..learn something every day. Note the tiny Ford blue oval emblem below the stamped Jeep badge on the body.

With EVs a lot of things are moving to phone apps though.(like with the Model 3)...I could see the fob also, though.

Which is why one would drive with it closed..presumably it seals..not really different from how the Bristol had a spare tire compartment on one side and a battery compartment on the other side of the front fenders...

Kia News: Rumorpile: Kia Soul EV Won't Be Coming To the U.S.
Robert Hall replied to William Maley's topic in Kia
It is odd...I'd assume the EV bits of the Soul were the same as the Kona? They are on the same platform, I think... Or maybe they want to focus on the Niro EV. -
Hopefully power and controlled by a phone app...that would be slick.

Thinking about the music I loved at age 20...then realizing that was 30 years ago... makes me feel old.
