Pads should last 100k miles+ if you adjust to one pedal driving on a BEV.  

you mean i can have an engine that’s ten years too late, more expensive than a similarly efficient hybrid toyota rav-4, AND I get to pay more for fuel too!? 

I always pay at the pump because it's more efficient and I don't have to go inside and deal with human resource units.   And I hate cash because that leads to change. 

I gassed up today. Not quite empty like I usually do, I had around 20 miles left as per the car computer.  It took 3-4 minutes for the pump to go gloo gloo gloo up to the brim and at least 1 -2 minutes to pay.  So yeah...about 5 minutes sounds about right.   But today though, I had to wait in line to use the pump so about another 5 minutes went by.  So 10 minutes in total. But usually though....5 minutes.  Ive used that same pump before though, and at least 3 times in the past, it actually seemed like an eternity to fill up. ONly at that particular pump in that particular gas station.  Im guessing 8-10 minutes to go from empty empty to full full...     SMK's story is very plausible though. We shouldn't question his numbers because sometimes it will take us 5 minutes to gas up while other times it may take 10. Over the holidays I had to wait 15 minutes to pay because one old man wanted to buy a ton of lottery tickets along with his gas.  My fault though as I could have paid with my bank card/credit card at the pump without having to go inside to pay...     I dont do that...lots of fraud with that where I live. So always cash it is when gassing up for me...  

handled well because the one he saw wasn't in a ditch or crashed into another vehicle?
