Ya, the Leaf I had had a MSRP of over $40,000, but I got it for less than a quarter of that. Ya, it definitely seems like a demand thing....
I was referring to the idea that cars are becoming like iPhones, that people will buy more along the lines of prestige and not necessarily...
I wasn't talking about people that do drugs or smoke or get help from the government. I was talking about people who's rent trippled or quadrupled...
I was thinking the same thing. You go to some country where most working adults make $100 a week and everyone has a $1,000 iPhone, even the kids....
Exactly. But the same is true for at least half the population. Only about %5 of the population in the USA buys a new car in any particular year,...
I certainly hope so. The time the Leaf left us 30 miles out of town I was driving with the heater off, freezing to death, and only would turn the...
I think EVs are still in the early phase, which means no one has "won" yet. It's like a marathon. Well, the beginning when everyone is showing up...
I think both GM and Tesla are "mainstream" and so is the Bolt. If we talk about Ford and Chevy, which one won the mainstream race? To me, the...
I mentioned this on the Gen 2 forum too, but looks like it affects gen 3 unless I'm not looking at the website correctly. When I go to...
I tried searching for an OEM battery on parts.toyota.com but they are no longer available, neither 2nd gen nor 3rd gen! Now what?!
I see 2nd gen Prii also burning oil. I own one of them. I don't have a way of checking the compression ring tension for all those cars, but I...
What are you referring to exactly? The low tensile rings go back since before 3rd gen came out. On my 2006 Prius I have this very same problem.
I was comparing to cars both in the past or from other companies. Maybe you won't get the same problem with some other car company doing yearly...
The pandemic has brought on many changes. With the way things are going I'm actually going in the opposite direction and am getting around to...
The problem has been linked to some design "flaws" with Toyota like low tensile rings. But that also reduces friction, which gives the engine...
That sounds good and all, but not easy to get into. So say I sell the Avalon or trade it in for $10,000 and pay off the remaining $2,000 or so I...
This all comes down to different circumstances. The Avalon is the first (well, first ICE) car that I've owned that at one point back when I bought...
I decided to boycot smartphones all together. #1 I need an FM radio. I've been in a couple of natural disasters where there was no cellphone...
True. But this is something I've seen on a lot of engines, and definitely seems very much connected to oil changes. Oil has to get the grime out...
I did try once though. 5 years ago we got a 2013 Nissan Leaf. It was our first nice car. We put up with it for a year and ended up selling it. I...
