If EV were so great, your "stupid eggs" comment would be moot. People would buy them. But they don't.

What is this? Weird. Paranoia, or something more? I've been feeling an odd vibration in 3rd gear. I thought it was the road and dismissed it as nothing at first, but it seems more consistent and more than coincidental, and on many different road surfaces. More quiet, alert driving will need to be done before I come to a conclusion... and possibly lodge a warranty concern.

Haha, I drove a Hyundai Venue around the block today, one of our service department loaner vehicles with 2600 miles on the clock. Actually pleasantly surprised. It feels plenty peppy. It rides well. The seat height and sight lines are great. The radio sounds really good. It recently crash-tested to a Top Safety Pick level. It's an overall appealing little buggy. I think I've found the car for my mom when the Forte is returned off lease, IF it can be swung on an affordable lease. There is no comparable domestic new car, and that is a shame. I mean, a base (Korean built) Trax FWD might be near the price with inevitable rebates, but she is bored by the Trax. She'd love to have another Soul, we'll see how it goes here in the next month or two. She's not happy about reading she'll be responsible for a $400 lease return fee on her Forte. I've got to delve into her "lease return kit" recently mailed to her from Kia.

So... pull yourself up by the bootstraps?

lolWould like to see Dodge get a small CUV, more street oriented than a Jeep counterpart. Would like to see Chrysler get something based on the new GC's platform, again, more street/luxury than a Jeep counterpart. The 300 is such a sweet car. Will be sad to see it go. I've said it before, it is like the last man standing, and what a tall and proud man.An idear for Balthy:
In addition to the 2" factory lift on the Trailboss, the Trailblazer SS was factory LOWERED.There won't be enough EV users to worry about it.Well our illustrious governor deemed my business "essential", so my mileage stayed pretty much normal. At first we were a bit paranoid, based on what we were told. Suddenly after 27 years I was a bit skeevish about getting in and out of ppl's nasty cars, but that subsided, with a little bit of clear thought. I am actually glad to have been going to work every day after an initial 2-week period of 3 days on, 4 days off.
