November 2019 Car Spotters!
Buses from the north end exit at Stewart and go down and turn left onto 2nd Ave. I get off at 2nd and S Washington. I get back onto the bus to go north at 4th and S Jackson then up 4th and turn onto Olive way and ride it till the expressway, then buzz up north. January 2023 is when the eastside lite rail connects to Seattle and goes live. You can ride from Redmond into Bellevue and then across I90 to downtown Seattle where at 5th and Jackson you can change to either go up north on the lite rail or south.

Seems the reports of only early this year and late last year that battery price per kW would be $187 per kW by 2025 are way off after massive advancements have the battery industry heading to $87 per kW battery pack cost by 2025. https://chargedevs.com/newswire/new-report-cost-and-performance-of-batteries-improving-much-faster-than-forecast/

Been this kind of day at work, so glad I am no longer in management, the politics are just so tiring. Not worth the money or responsibilities.

Infiniti News: Infiniti Updates Infotainment Systems for 2020 Model Year
Yup with my son working at Amazon, even he says I am weird to not buy from them, use them or have a prime account. Just never found a reason to use it in comparison to my local retailers. Course, I hate shopping so that could also have something to do with it. Wife loves to shop, so brings home cloths for me to try on, then return what does not fit. Only thing I shop for is Auto's and Home Theater stuff.

Seems failure of a front wheel assembly from hitting something is what caused this amazing womans death at almost 550 mph. https://www.msn.com/en-us/autos/news/cause-determined-in-jessi-combs-fatal-speed-record-crash/ar-AAJQHG7?li=BBnbfcL RIP Jessi Combs ☠️

Infiniti News: Infiniti Updates Infotainment Systems for 2020 Model Year
I get what you are saying, my daughter has spotify and added my wife and I on her account. Have to say, I am loving how it just works on my Panasonic Android / Apple head unit in the SS and is commercial free. Has made me decide to update the OEM head unit in my Escalade to an aftermarket unit as it is just awesome. Love listening to my music with no commercials. In regards to XM Satellite Radio, I have it on the Escalade and if it was not for the offer I took at the time when they were merging with Sirius to not loose me, I would not have it today. I now have lifetime on my Escalade for XM, so the best $200 I spent back in 2007 when the merger was anounced and after 57 weeks, took place on March 24th 2008. I will say that much of SiriusXM has talk shows and commercials now and it becomes harder and harder to listen as I hate commercials and talk shows, just let me listen to my music. As such, Spotify and YouTube Music are great. Worth the small yearly cost for commercial free music everywhere.

Tesla faces federal investigation by NHTSA
True that is another side of the story, not really sure which side is true but politics and business played a major role in the death of Tucker and the dream to build a better auto. Always special interest for sure will do what ever they can to manipulate the system.
