Subject: [EVDL] Took the Tesla Y plunge, no more Fossil Fools in our
house
Thanks Folks for helping me make my decision. The Ford Escape PHEV seems like
it’s made of Unobtanium anyway (factory Covid shutdowns,layoffs). Maybe
there’s a reason Ford’s stock remains in the single digits and Tesla $300+.
I’ll pick up the Blue Tesla Y Saturday In Richmond, since I’m 65, paid from my
IRA so no payments $52k, 4 wheel drive 316 mile range. We’re no longer fossil
fools now with a Leaf, Bolt and a Tesla. I’m also building a Tesla Coil that
throws 5’ lightning bolts, 6.0 kit from Eastern voltage research.com.
The Tesla Y looks like it has a steep learning curve compared to the Bolt. Had
to sign up last night for a Tesla account and download an app on my iPhone to
access the car. It looks like you’re Information tracked For charging
convenience (automatically charges credit card without using at supercharger
stations). The controls are not in the usual places and a lot is done through
the laptop size touchscreen. Probably why you don’t see them as Hertz etc
rentals. I’ll have to dig into the wire harness to set up a trailer hitch from
Etrailers.com To tow the boat. Say where’s the parking brake to set when I
launch the ski boat at the boat ramp? It would be a bummer to submerge a $52k
car.
One big reason for buying the Tesla Y is the self driving capability as we get
older and decrepit, so we don’t get kicked out of our house to an old fart home
like the nieghbors did when they couldn’t drive. Of course you’ll still have
to have the cognition to operate this fancy car...
Have a renewable energy day
Mark
