I totally agree with Bruce. It makes sense for the EVAlbum to be unique conversion BEVs. All other EVs are not needed on the list or can be put in other forums.
Thanks Bruce and Mike for all you do. Bruce said "To keep Mike from being inundated with the avalanche of new production EV drivers everyone can see IS coming, changes should be made to let Mike handle the work load, and make passing evalbum.com on to the next/younger caretaker, not an albatross/cross to bear that it currently is. IMO, evalbum.com should be for EVs-only (ones that plug into a grid for electric power). Not hevs, pih, fcvs, etc. An EV-conversion is essentially a modified vehicle. Most production EVs aren't allowed to be modified, else they lose warranty or support from the manufacturer. However, aging production EVs, that have lost their support or their part sourcing has died up, can become modified production EVs. Thus, a listing of how the owner is diy supporting their 'classic' EV would be valuable for others to know. *Certain vehicles should be moved/off-loaded evalbum.com to other ownership, and let evalbum.com focus on just EVs, specifically, converted/modified EVs. Then evalbum.com site maintenance would be much more manageable. *1st move all hybrids (plugin or not) to a popular forum of that model to manage. There is currently a boat-load/a-lot of non-EV prius listings that could easily be handled by a prius forum. The same with other hybrids. Since fcvs are essentially also a hybrid that consumes fossil fuel, they should be blocked from listing on evalbum.com and referred to list on their favorite fcv forum. At some point, Tesla roadster gen1 EVs are going to lose manufacturer support, That is when the old classic EV would become owner diy supported, and thus a modified production EV, whose listing of what changes the owner has made to continue supporting it, would be good to know.+ -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
