I know I need to get in better shape...too much sitting on my butt. And I'll be 50 in four months...

Pacifica seems like it would be a great vehicle for a cross country road trip...would have been more spacious than my GC on the 2100 mile drive from Phoenix to Cleveland w/ 6 dogs..

I could see a Chrysler CUV based on the Compass or Cherokee. Make a luxury oriented soft roader.

IIRC, the AJ V8 is unrelated to the Ford modular family of V8s (4.6, 5.0, 5.4, etc)

I'd be happy with a climate where the temps ranged from 55-75 with about 20% humidity. Some sun is ok, but I don't like continuous sun. I have you beat on the body fat...I think I'm around 35%. 6'0" 240lbs, never work out.

I love San Diego/Del Mar..used to go there 3-4 times a year. .The lakes here are in green wooded areas...and I have Lake Erie...huge. The lakes in AZ still have desert ugly around them...

Remember, I lived there 9 years...yes, winter is nice.. May through October it beyond sucks. Hell on Earth. Too many triple digit days. A sea of beige stucco houses in the burbs, ugly, ugly desert shit beyond that, dust and crap and unrelenting heat. Now up north is nice--I liked Prescott, Jerome, Flagstaff.. I do miss my pool, the January car auctions, and a few restaurants..but that's about it...

Have had both in the last 24 hours...freezing rain changing to snow...about 6 inches of snow so far over the ice. About 30 outside. And it was almost 60 Monday-Tuesday. More snow in the winter means my trees and yard will be green and healthy, so I don't mind it. I love the greenery as opposed to dust and beige everything in the desert void..

Alternative Fuels & Propulsion RANDOM
Robert Hall replied to G. David Felt's topic in Electric Vehicles and Alternative Fuels
Good point....so yes, you might 'own' your Tesla, but Elon has the right to update or remove the crapware at anytime... EVs at this point only make sense as a lease, wouldn't want to 'own' one... I won't buy new either, but I wouldn't buy a used Tesla either...they are just lease appliances... the long term aspect of Teslas is too questionable. As appliances, it's best to just recycle them after a few years...imagine how miserable life will be for some schmuck stuck with a dead 10 yr old Model S.. FTS. It's like a cell phone, you don't want to be carrying around one that is 5 or 10 years old... -

Yeah, the Atlas is cheaper and dumbed down for the US market compared to the Touareg. -

Those were the 1st gen models, a long time ago. The current 3rd gen models of each are sufficiently differentiated. -

Those headlights look great in the closeup pic...I'm sure I'll like it in person. Love the interior. Looking forward to sitting in one at an auto show..looks like it would be a great road trip SUV. -

It would be in however they measure power for EVs...watts of output? Rods per hogshead? Liters per hectare? -
Or in Nissan terms, not a NISMO, GT-R or SE-R spec....just a basic pickup, torque counts for hauling stuff...

Alternative Fuels & Propulsion RANDOM
Robert Hall replied to G. David Felt's topic in Electric Vehicles and Alternative Fuels
It all fits into software EULAs...like if you buy a used computer or phone..do you own any apps already on that phone or computer, or are entitled to software updates to the OS? Seems like a gray area... -
It does flow well with the lights..but it is a bit small for the current era..everything is about big grilles now...the new grille makes it look more related to the 300..

There is probably something in the fine print that gives Tesla the right to enable/disable features like this. -
It's hardly rocket surgery or anything new, the idea of solar charging for EV batteries has been around for a while... https://www.cnbc.com/2019/09/28/teslas-musk-rejects-solar-on-cars-its-not-stopping-toyota-hyundai.html
