The first car they discuss is the Dodge Charger EV, sounds like a piece of shit.
I saw a VW EV bus drive past the house tinight. Nice looking. I'd modify it with a TDI Diesel hybrid to make awesome.
Since the cold ass time, my hybrid is up to 26 mpg overall. It's 32 in town.
So don't leave town and they are great.

Edison Motors in Canada is all in on diesel-electric hybrids. They are developing a pretty damn cool logging truck and, in conjunction with Deboss Garage, are working on kits for aftermarket diesel-electric pickup truck swaps. But, IMO, the coolest thing they are doing is a diesel electric Landcruiser.

Maybe not EV specific, but it got in the 20s the last couple days and my wife said the low tire pressure warning came on. No big deal. One tire was low, blow it up, move one. Right?
Nope.
The tpms needs the vehicle to be over 50mph for 10-20 min to reset (except that didn't work), or you deflate all the tires to zero then reinflate, or you pull the battery and reset all your settings again (that took two of us reading the manual and youtube vids on a long trip and setting a bunch of things) or you take it to the dealer and they do it for you. Likely just unplugging the battery and saying here you go.
It's going to take me several hours of BS to get the tpms to reset on this stupid thing. The warning dings and flashes over and over everytime you start and drive the car until you switch to another setting.
I added some air to the Jeep tires because it will only get colder, but those can get much lower pressure and still be fine.
TPMS should only be a "hey your tire is going flat", fill the tire up inspect it for a leak and you should be good. Not a reason to take a car to the dealer.

But the government is is keeping you safe ! If you can't tell you have a low tire , are you aware enough to be driving ? Special thanks to Ford and Firestone for starting these good doers into action .......
More electronic nannies that are unwanted and unneeded - decreed by our Benevolent OverLords. Thank Goddess only one of our cars has it.
I was expecting to blow up the tire and drive half a block. Not spend a half hour researching with no resolution.
Both of my kids have tpms sensors out in their cars after 120-150,000 miles. I guess I'll find the tool to look at the sensors, buy some, and pop the front bead off to replace them.
I'm still researching the new car, but it's a pain to drive with it's warning taking over the guage cluster instead of being a small light you can ignore.
