    When do you think you will buy a 100% pure electric vehicle?

    Youtube? Some other streaming service. If there is one thing that I am frustrated with the Lightning about, it's that I can't use android auto to screencast while charging.

    When do you think you will buy a 100% pure electric vehicle?

    I have 48 solar panels with a lot of surplus electricity. That coupled with the 0% financing I got last year made the choice to get my lightning much easier. Even without the solar, I calculate my cost per mile at roughly equivalent to 45 mpg with $3.30 gas if charging at home. If I go to an EA...

    When do you think you will buy a 100% pure electric vehicle?

    Any sign of an EREV Sienna? My wife's 2016 Sienna has about 130k miles on it, and I'm trying to hold out until someone (anyone) releases an EREV minivan. That to me is the sweet spot for trucks and vans.

    When do you think you will buy a 100% pure electric vehicle?

    I stopped to charge somewhere along I80 in Illinois and suddenly two of these with the window stickers still in them pulled up. I was really impressed by them, but I'm pretty sure they were around 100k or more each.

    When do you think you will buy a 100% pure electric vehicle?

    As an F150 Lightning owner, after I made my first long trip and it took my truck 5 days to charge up, I was desperate for my L2 charger install to happen.

    A/V setup

    In my previous house, I had a 5.1.2 setup with rear (overhead) atmos. I can't tell you how much I missed that when we moved 5.5 years ago. I only recently got back to a 5.1 setup in my theater room. It is like a breath of fresh air when watching Andor and The Last of Us or playing video games...

    CF my love, the time has come...

    Thank you @Jer. I have also been on this site since the firewaynemorgan days. Even though I am not an frequent poster, this site has been my primary social media for almost 20 years. I'm pretty sure my usage led to Bank of America blocking in their corporate offices. So once again, thank you...

    When do you think you will buy a 100% pure electric vehicle?

    I agree and misspoke. But I would still think there has to be a time component to how quickly that wattage is delivered.

    When do you think you will buy a 100% pure electric vehicle?

    I'm very new to this, but I'm not sure the 10.2 KwH is really fully speed. I went to an Electrify America station recently that peaked at 200 KwH.

    Help I got seriously hacked on Facebook

    Ok. There are two methods of recourse that I am aware of. All of their posted steps are worthless. Recovery email, backup address, close friends. None of it will work. 6 years ago my wife's facebook was taken over. She was distraught due to all of the pictures and memories on it from college...

    When do you think you will buy a 100% pure electric vehicle?

    I just had my Ford charge station pro installed today. When connected, it charges my Lightning at 10.2 KwH which is so much better than the 1.2 KwH off a 110 outlet.

    Dyersville Field Of Dreams Visit

    7hills was mentioned above. They also have a restaurant in Dyersville. My wife and I went there recently and it's probably the best meal I've had in Dyersville now that the Country Junction is closed.

    Dyersville Field Of Dreams Visit

    Textile Brewing in Dyersville is pretty good and has good pretzels and flatbreads if you need a food option. Depending on how much of scenic day of driving you are looking for, here are some additional options. There are a handful of wineries in the area, specifically Park Farm near Bankston...
