I gotta say, the R2 really hits the sweet spot in terms of size, performance, and features.

As a member of the Cult of Jobs - I'd love to have one to play with but $3500 is too much for my budget. I think AR will be huge, though likely not for awhile.

Really? I can't imagine this lack of curiosity. IK bumps into Carl Benz in 1866. "Mr. Ivan, I'm looking for test users to try my new invention, the motorwagon". IK: "I wouldn't want one even it was free. I have horses, who needs a tin can to move people around. "

Wifey and I currently bingeing Bosch - midway through Season 3. I'd rate it 6-7 out of 10 thus far. Entertaining enough to keep us coming back after the kids go down the last week or so, but not great.

Stick it out. My wife and I both had similar reactions after Season 1 - we were not hooked at all and stayed away for a couple years. After several more seasons and a lot of hype, we gave it another shot. Seasons 2 on are much better and it's worth the squeeze.

Interesting post for many reasons. You've inspired me to re-watch Smoky & the Bandit. Loved it as a youngster. I'm floored by the assertion that Cann, Connery, and Reynolds "look like regular guys". Did you grow up in West Hollywood IK?

Just seeing this - AWESOME MOP! Perhaps not coincidentally, Miami SMOKED the Jets. Hope you enjoyed it!

Great guy. Loved the Kings. Would argue and battle and then chop it up afterwards. Very smart. Great poster. Will be missed.

Brutal. You guys deserve better than this. Ugh. Sorry guys.

Busting your balls buddy. Good on you for volunteering your time. (y)

No excuse getting blown out by 20 on the 5th grade level. That's on the coaches. Teach your kids to beat the press or how to trap on defense. Problem solved.

Agree that it's optimal to plug your Level 1 charger directly into a plug, but when you're traveling and staying at hotels/AirBnBs without charging stations, it's very unlikely they have parking within a few feet of a 120 outlet.

Again, 99.2% of Americans drive less than 100 miles daily. Virtually all of the newer EVs have double to triple that range right now. For most Americans in the market for a newer vehicle, buying an EV is absolutely the smartest move fiscally.

gianmarco's post sums up the challenges of long trips in EVs, but the reality is 99.2% of daily car trips in America are less than 100 miles per day. So EVs absolutely work for most families, 99% of the time. :shrug:

Doubtful that it's worth it to you at this point, but if you find a Level 1 charger on craigslist or Facebook marketplace for cheap ($50?), could be worth it. When I first got my i3 I traveled a bit for local youth softball tournaments and local hotels will usually let you plug into a wall...
