I did not notice as I have the "NoScript" plugin on FireFox so that Javascript is by default not running on my computer, I have to individually approve websites that don't work without JavaScript, or simply let them be broken if I don't fully trust them. So, I was not getting the redirect. Note that the jstraubel.com hosting site is a server in The Netherlands, offering the domain for sale. So, it may be that some websites on this domain are unsafe - not necessarily the server message that offers the domain for sale, but again I don't know for sure as my browser is not being redirected anyway. I presume that the EValbum page are OK, as well as the archive.org capture of JB Straubel's website, I looked at a version from 10 years ago and that showed up perfectly with the details on the gen 2 pusher.

However, I ended up with the need to transport the Leaf by myself earlier this year, so I used a tow dolly all the way instead. I believe I have recounted here my two experiences towing an imiev with a Tesla? The first trip about 200 miles from Plano to home (south of Austin). The second from Houston, about 150 miles. No problem at all on either trip. Generally towing (and regenning) about 30 miles, then driving about 50 miles. The first was done at night and I have no photos. The second, I fabricated a "stiff rope" tow bar and did take some photos: https://plus.google.com/102434734002949174273/posts/4fc5j5XVFri In both cases, SuperChargers provided much of the energy.

Re: [EVDL] Selling an EV on EBay
I got a banker to admit to me that even a certified check is in jeopardy of being reversed even months later. Dan On 11/21/2016 11:58 AM, Lawrence Harris via EV wrote: Yup, sounds like a scam so if you want to proceed first make sure the cheque clears before you ship. The typical additional part is they send a cheque for more than the amount saying the extra is for shipping or some such and ask that you refund them the difference, by cheque or money order. Unfortunately often the cheque is drawn on a stolen account that the owner may not realize has been compromised so it can clear and appear good for sometimes a long time before the money is suddenly reversed and you are left dangling. I worked this scam with a friend who was selling a wheel chair on craigslist and the guy sent a cheque for more than the value, wanted the chair sent to a third party along with the difference after shipping costs. A couple of phone calls and it was obvious that it was a scam. We reported it to the police gave them the cheque and led the guy on for a bit before we stopped the communications. Never did find out what the resolution was. So be careful.

The most often occurring form of that scam was that they sent you a too large payment, to cover the cost of shipment and honest sellers would send the buyers a personal check or cash for the overage. So, after all was said and done, they were out of their car, and shipping costs and whatever cash or check they sent to the buyer, only left with a worthless piece of paper. So, if the type of payment you receive is not a guaranteed type of payment (please ask your bank to confirm!) then you must wait a *loong* time before even shipping your vehicle! That said, it is possible that a (foreign?) buyer absolutely wants to have a nice looking Ghia and then 3 grand is a bargain, EV or not. So, it is possible that it simply is someone with more money than realization of what an EV is, he simply wants a nice looking car and someone will take care that it runs I hope you find out soon what the intent of the buyer is!

And it you drag it along most places you go, you'llbe cutting your mileage by far more than it is worth. Just towing a tiny 4'x4' utility trailer (solar panels) behind my prius drops the mileage form 50 down to 35 MPG. A pusher is just a crutch for delaying the ievitable loss of a gas station on every corner. bob -Original Message- From: EV [mailto:ev-boun...@lists.evdl.org] On Behalf Of Lee Hart via EV Sent: Monday, November 21, 2016 12:17 PM To: Cor van de Water; Electric Vehicle Discussion List Subject: Re: [EVDL] EVLN: EV-newswire posts for 20161121 Cor van de Water via EV wrote: > Regarding recharging while being towed: I have at some point (a couple years ago) considered buying a Leaf in Los Angeles and partly driving, partly flat-towing it back to the Bay Area.

Here's a related idea that I keep thinking about: A few people have built "pusher" trailers. The trailer is really the front clip of a front-wheel drive car, complete with ICE, automatic transmission, and transaxle. The throttle and ignition switch are remoted so they can be operated from the driver's seat. To take a long trip with your EV, connect the pusher trailer to a trailer hitch. Start the ICE, put it in Drive, and go! When the ICE is idling, it just creeps forward, like any car with an automatic transmission. Your EV's brakes can easily hold it back. On the freeway where you need help, use the ICE's throttle to push your EV and control your speed. Obviously, you'd limit the ICE throttle to restrict how much push the trailer can produce. 100-200 pounds thrust should be all you'd need for a normal EV, and that isn't enough to cause braking or handling problems with a 3000 lbs EV. And, you certainly wouldn't use it down hills or in slippery conditions. -- The problem in this business isn't to keep people from stealing your ideas: It's to *make* them steal your ideas! -- Howard Aiken -- Lee Hart, 814 8th Ave N, Sartell MN 56377, www.sunrise-ev.com ___ UNSUBSCRIBE: http://www.evdl.org/help/index.html#usub http://lists.evdl.org/listinfo.cgi/ev-evdl.org Read EVAngel's EV News at http://evdl.org/evln/ Please discuss EV drag racing at NEDRA (http://groups.yahoo.com/group/NEDRA) ___ UNSUBSCRIBE: http://www.evdl.org/help/index.html#usub http://lists.evdl.org/listinfo.cgi/ev-evdl.org Read EVAngel's EV News at http://evdl.org/evln/ Please discuss EV drag racing at NEDRA (http://groups.yahoo.com/group/NEDRA)

Re: [EVDL] Selling an EV on EBay
If Mark has specified only payment via Paypal and the buyer does not pay by Paypal then Mark can cancel the deal for non-payment. If the buyer does send a (valid) check anyways, it is simple to not risk anything if it is not a guaranteed payment and simply destroy the check, take a picture of the destroyed check just in case and leave it at that. If his bank confirms that he has received a guaranteed form of payment, then it is his choice to accept it and move forward, once he is 100% sure that he has been paid. He can follow his own timeline, for example wait 2-3 weeks before releasing the car, since the buyer did not follow his required payment method. If the buyer becomes very anxious that is an extra red flag. Canceling the transaction and reporting the buyer is probably the safest approach.

Re: [EVDL] Selling an EV on EBay
Yup, sounds like a scam so if you want to proceed first make sure the cheque clears before you ship. The typical additional part is they send a cheque for more than the amount saying the extra is for shipping or some such and ask that you refund them the difference, by cheque or money order. Unfortunately often the cheque is drawn on a stolen account that the owner may not realize has been compromised so it can clear and appear good for sometimes a long time before the money is suddenly reversed and you are left dangling. I worked this scam with a friend who was selling a wheel chair on craigslist and the guy sent a cheque for more than the value, wanted the chair sent to a third party along with the difference after shipping costs. A couple of phone calls and it was obvious that it was a scam. We reported it to the police gave them the cheque and led the guy on for a bit before we stopped the communications. Never did find out what the resolution was. So be careful.

Re: [EVDL] GM Killed The (Bolt) Electric Car : GM only sellingBolt in CA ...
/"Chart 63 says they have known reserves for 150 years."/ Exxon Mobile has energy reserves for many years, that is true, but that doesn't mean they can maintain current production rates for that number of years. Production rate is what is important, not reserves. The production of oil is like a huge river constantly flowing to supply the power, energy per unit time, required to run the "labor saving" devices, like trucks and bulldozers, that enable our standard of living. The required flow is determined by the global population and "standard of living". Increasing either requires an increase in oil production, the flow of the river. A number like "150 years of reserves" usually is based on the current standard of living and global population, i.e. current usage rates, but these are both increasing exponentially as "undeveloped" countries become more developed, particularly China and India. Some people say that the population growth rate in the undeveloped countries is the problem, but around 20 people in a country with higher birth rates like Pakistan or Nigera use about as much oil as 1 person in the U.S., so actually our smaller population growth rate has a larger effect on oil consumption. /"He said that a mile down there's oil under every state in the union. They just haven't developed a good way to get it and it costs over a million dollars to drill that deep."/ Oil companies have been drilling much more than a mile below the sea floor in deep water in the GoM (Gulf of Mexico) for many years, which is much more difficult and expensive than drilling that depth on land. Those wells cost hundreds of millions. Why would they incur that extra cost if they could just drill to the same depth on land for much lower cost? Also, Exxon Mobil has had record spending on exploration for the past 5 years or so, but their new discoveries have been way down. They recently cut back on exploration for new oil fields for that reason, and have put more emphasis on natural gas. Why would that be the case if oil is so plentiful under the continental U.S.? /"The Bakkan field in North Dakota, for example, contains up to 500 billion barrels of oil, more than twice the known oil deposits of Saudi Arabia."/ It is well know that most of the "sweet spots", those offering higher production rates, in the Bakken have already been drilled. The "decline rate" (rate of production decline) in the Bakken is very high, with production from a well dropping by over 90% in 3 years on average. After 3 years most of those wells are "stripper wells" producing on the order of 10 barrels per day. That, and the higher cost of fracking, is why production of "tight oil" is much more expensive than from conventional wells, many more wells have to be sunk to produce a given volume of oil. Production from these wells is not at all like conventional oil wells, and will be less attractive as they are forced to move to drilling in the less "sweet" spots of the fields. /"The oil under the sands of Saudi Arabia is far easier, and therefore less costly, to extract than the oil pocketed under rock beneath North Dakota."/ You have to drill through rock to reach all oil deposits, but conventional oil fields are typically in much more porous rock under salt domes which hold it in place. There is no need to "frac", fracture, the oil-containing rock. Just drilling down through the dome to penetrate the porous oil-containing rock is all that is required since the oil flows much more freely through that more porous rock due to the pressure on it from the rock above - producing the "gushers" of east Texas long ago. That is why "tight oil" is more expensive to produce. In response to low oil prices producers have found a number of ways to reduce costs, such as fracking multiple lines from a given drilling platform, but except for in the sweetest spots it is still more expensive to produce than conventional oil. Also keep in mind that typically less than 50% of OIP (oil in place) is recovered, even with EOR (enhanced oil recovery) techniques such as water or CO2 injection in conventional oil fields, so there will always be oil left in the ground, but that oil won't do us any good. Some have gone as high as 70% but that is not the norm. Companies have revisited older fields to squeeze more oil out with EOR techniques depending on the market price of oil. A bit like re-mining the "dumps" of old gold mines to extract a bit more when gold prices are high enough to make it economic. /"Most of the oil fields under the North American continent were discovered long ago. The Bakkan field, for example, was discovered back in 1951. The reason why we import oil from South America and the Middle East instead of producing our own right here is a matter of cost."/ Most of the known oil fields in the WORLD were discovered long ago ( see e.g. Hubbert’s Peak, The Impending World Oil Shortage by Kenneth S.

Re: [EVDL] Selling an EV on EBay
Hi Mark, There are some red flags that you are often warned about, such as using a check or money order from abroad that appears legit on first sight, but two or 3 weeks later your bank calls that the piece of paper is worthless. The most often occurring form of that scam was that they sent you a too large payment, to cover the cost of shipment and honest sellers would send the buyers a personal check or cash for the overage. So, after all was said and done, they were out of their car, and shipping costs and whatever cash or check they sent to the buyer, only left with a worthless piece of paper. So, if the type of payment you receive is not a guaranteed type of payment (please ask your bank to confirm!) then you must wait a *loong* time before even shipping your vehicle! That said, it is possible that a (foreign?) buyer absolutely wants to have a nice looking Ghia and then 3 grand is a bargain, EV or not. So, it is possible that it simply is someone with more money than realization of what an EV is, he simply wants a nice looking car and someone will take care that it runs I hope you find out soon what the intent of the buyer is!

I just sold my Ghia evalbum.com/4346 on EBay for $3335. The guy doesn't ask anything about EV operation when I've sent a fair amount of info. I just get misspelled notifications like the transporters will be soon pick up. Last night I was requested to give my pay pal account number which I replied with my email address was all he needed to pay or click on the ad to pay by PayPal. Now he says he's mailing a bank check instead. When I call his number I just get some breathing and then hung up several times. He doesn't appear to be an EV enthusiast but hopefully the check will be ok. I'm buying a Chevy Spark EV in Maryland Friday to go along with my Leaf.
