The sale of hybrid vehicles are giving Japanese automakers cash that can later be reinvested into the production of EVs. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/business/2024/05/16/companies/japan-carmakers-hybrids/

I’m glad to see more sane takes on the upside of hybrids, PHEVs and FCEVs over BEVs. Reddit’s car community used to be dominated by nutty BEV fanatics, but now those are mostly pushed out and discredited. People are now realizing that other types of EVs have value. BEVs are not going to take over the world anytime soon.

I caught the start of a #rodent nest in my #Toyota #Tacoma engine bay. They were using the insulation from the underside of the plastic engine cover and stuffing it between the intake runners and the top of the engine.

What are people using as rodent deterrents these days?

@deewani @bosquebill that's a good resource! I didn't know about it before.

From what I've observed at our previous rental house a few blocks away, these rats usually pass through in the spring and are usually gone by summer. So hopefully I won't get any more trouble, especially with traps I'll keep set.

@douglasvb We started hanging Fresh Cab botanical rodent repellent sachets in the engine compartments of our cars a few years ago after some nibblers got to our firewall insulation. Seems to keep them away, though we have to change them every month or two.
