Re: Let's talk about cars

In Washington State you need to be able to reverse around a corner and even parallel park. The marking is fairly lenient, but it is closer to the UK test.

Re: Let's talk about cars

That is my experience. I plug it in once or twice a week for overnight charging and find that much easier than having to go to a gas station. My garage had a 220V outlet and that charges fast enough,...

Re: Let's talk about cars

I don't think I have washed my car since coming to PNW. My wife cannot stand a dirty car so mine magically gets clean although not as frequently as hers. Don't know where she goes, but appreciate...

Re: Let's talk about cars

My Kia EV6 is pictured a little earlier in this thread. It is very easy to live with, and makes me smile every day.

Re: Let's talk about cars

It may not be "full self-driving" but it feels close. My wife's Highlander has the same features, and the adaptive lane control with lane centering really helps when driving 100s highway miles. I...

Re: Let's talk about cars

There are a few around here, so not uncommon for me to see them. Amazing cars that always make me smile.

Re: Let's talk about cars

My car has 2 120V sockets, and can supply 1500W. I was worried if an electric kettle may trip it as it warns about transients, but it works fine. It also powered the main things in my house after the...

Re: Let's talk about cars

It just whines a lot when going at slow speed, which I thought was only motor noise. There is no 'choir' or other...

Re: Let's talk about cars

This is one reason to consider a new car, the state of the tech in cars is moving fast at the moment. I'm currently keeping an old car (Altima) for myself, but my wife's car gets renewed.

Re: Let's talk about cars

Best not to come to Washington State, as that is a reason to pull people over. The courts recently confirmed that every lane change and every direction change, even if in a turn only lane requires...

Re: Let's talk about cars
