That’s not a reasonable thing to expect to have to do while driving. Sounds like the “you’re holding it wrong” of cars

Yeah, I’m a weirdo with a cargo e-bike. Love it, except when it rains or snows.

I’d love a sub-$20k street legal EV that skips the entertainment system and most other features. Just give me a weatherproof cabin with comfortable seats and a modest cargo capacity for groceries and small appliances. I’m only ever going to drive it for at most an hour around town and back. Maybe listen to a podcast from my phone. Stick solar panels on the roof and it’ll probably always be topped off for how infrequently I drive. I’ll rent something if I take a longer trip.

Yeah, totally. I’d also love to see like a rack of those for rent, every few blocks in my city. That’d be near perfect

I've kind of lurked around SDF since the mid 90s. (My first time on IRC was via SDF!) I keep meaning to participate more in the community, but my ADHD seems to give me a lack of object permanence with communities 😅

Either way, I'm glad to be reminded periodically that SDF still exists and I ponied up for a membership a few years back. The shell account comes in handy, occasionally. Glad to see new services pop up from SDF. Happy to see things still trucking along!
