Wrong thread Rosty.

 

[Hippie420]

I don't have Big to clean up after, so Roster's trying desperately to take his place.

 

[WeedHopper]

You mean Rooster.

 

[giggy]

Morning everybody. Damn did I miss a titties pic? I think I still have a lips pic that Hopper removed a couple years back.

 

[WeedHopper]

Nah,,,it was getting a little too close to politics. Rosty forgets sometimes.

 

[giggy]

Damn I wanted to see titties, guess I'll have to wait till I get home.

 

[Hippie420]

What time should Hopper & I show up? We like a show, too.

 

[WeedHopper]

We just need a pole. Hippie is very good dancer with his red Speedos on.
We need dollar bills though.

[giggy]

I believe that is a show I don't want to see.

A dollar? Maybe 20 years ago. Takes a five spot to get me on the pole anymore.

I got 20 quarters, but we need pictures, or it didn't happen.

No offense taken. We also own a Jeep GCL for those occasions where the EV isn't suitable. Our EV is strictly a town car, which is where 99% of our driving is. We have put less than 1000 miles a year on our Jeeps.

Our maintenance and repair costs besides tires has been under $1,000 and fuel costs have been about 25%. If we walk away from it today our loss will be $12,000 for the 9 years we've driven it, or about $1,333 a year.

As for the costs they are charging for EV's today, I think they are absurd and wouldn't buy one either. Especially since an EV is much simpler and easier to build than gas cars.

I infer it because the car manufacturers have figured out that they won't be supplementing car sales revenue with replacement part sales and need to get their money up front to maintain profitability.

Several years ago I was told by a Ford rep that they lost money on their EV cars. But were required to have them for federal emissions.

The car manufactures make money from both car sales and replacement parts.

When GM did their EV study a couple of decades ago, they found that maintenance and replacement parts sales were so low as to make them unprofitable.

Hey ya'll....Well, not much going on here...I'm in the middle of building a new pc, but got stuck. I ordered case fans with the rest of my stuff from Best Buy, not knowing the case fans were coming from China, ugh! They were at JFK yesterday, at 6pm, and they aren't the best at updating tracking either.

We are having some weird weather, highs 70+, and high humidity, dark cloudy days for three days now, misty rain, fog in the morning. Ready for some cold weather, I still have pepper plants bearing...lol

Me too sept our is much colder than normal It barely hit 50 today and over night was the 30s. Out first frost date is like Nov 21st but usually hits much later. Usually right now we are in the upper 70s. Overnight should be 50s. Not the day time temps.

She was a crazy young lass. Reminded me of a few gals I knew back in the day.

I used to build computers for a hobby.
Fry's Electronics was my favorite place to buy Motherboards and Processors and etc. they had sales all the time. Now you can pretty much bye them just as cheap already built unless your a gamer.
