Not sure what 'crab-walking mode' is used for in Hummer EV, but it appears rather useless. ( video below article)...

Any on-site reports from the Presidential Range backcountry snow conditions? Specifically Ammonusuc side? Or for that matter, Mt Adams north face? Thx

Has this and other NH ( ski area) projects been approved or completed? I'm curious to know what the comparison of expansion projects in NH to VT might be. Is it regulation that hinders or local opposition? All kinds of not comparable stats I'll assume ( National Forest/Feds/state or local regs...

problem with paddle shifters are on off ramps or sharp turns they aren't ergonomic. 1st one I had was going from a '05 Acura MDX 5 or 6 speed on shifter to an '08 - paddles - cumbersome and unnatural to the human ( and old) standard(s). Most people can't read tachometers or were never taught...

Just one step closer to autonomous driving. Tesla has the most advanced technology on that front- at least according to Cathie Wood. Supposedly better than Googles Waymo? Distracted driving drove me off in line skating for off-season workouts. Too many ‘car breezes’ on my arms.

Most have seen the tire cover on back of Jeeps - '5 speed shift pattern and the motto ' This vehicle has anti theft device'. Best part of driving - taught all my kids - well ; almost- to drive sticks and purchased their 1st car as a standard - simple - 'males one pay attention'. Can't be on the...

now thats funny.

Here's a couple of those comps - and the Pipeline one is certainly skewed, never the less, mostly true: https://www.axios.com/2023/04/28/evs-weight-safety-problems https://the-pipeline.org/evs-powered-by-other-peoples-money/

Skiur correct: Chat GPT: The weight of an F150 pickup truck varies depending on the specific model and configuration, but it typically ranges from around 4,000 to 5,600 pounds (1,800 to 2,500 kilograms) for newer models. On the other hand, a Tesla Model S, for example, weighs around 4,800 to...

Even with all the hype and incentive of some of top 50% of earners tax dollars - the market is speaking - and it doesn't want electric cars. Volvo pulled out completely, Toyota smartly stuck with hybrids, GM? How many Volts/Bolts do we see? Hertz returned 200K Tesla rentals, Fiskar is near...

All the iron cutters and torches are in Baltimore- would think cutting them to truck bed size might be more efficient cost-wise and safer, but take quite a bit longer.

Consider the source - interesting that top of list consists of defense contractors. . . . . maybe shareholder and customer satisfaction should be main contributors and survey 50% shareholders ( or just use metrics of their counterparts in the industry, S&P comp, or something) and 50% customer...

Do European resorts (public/private/combo) have the same environmental roadblocks as the US? It does appear that a larger economic impact is felt thruout all those European ski resorts than the US. A larger population closer- and maybe ( I dunno larger than the 5-6% of US pop. that ski/ride) a...

It is an issue- my friends w them- 3 or 4 who either live in valley part time or visit family here often park at mt. Walk or get rides back to where they are staying. I keep hearing about the # of them that are inoperative but not locally. Do they now pay for the charge?

Where is Benedict Gomez? From local online newspaper: Wildlife Kudos to Sugarbush for planning the Heaven's Gate chair replacement around the nesting time for the endangered Bicknell's Thrush. Not doubt this comes with major logistical and financial repercussions. And thank you to the...

Let’s tell everyone to go there! Our experience of 11 days at Little and Big plus SB was generally pleasant. Mid week no or few lines- mid Feb and 1st week of March. More East coast folks but still a lot of Europeans-every one of them - ‘ why would you chance Europe ( high mts w NE -like...

So much for energy independence if we go with REM's. Heres where to invest - along with China and rest of the BRICS ( who won't be doing it in US dollars) https://www.powerlineblog.com/archives/2023/09/the-daily-chart-who-has-the-metals.php Spot on post BG, and in a free country, buying what...

Are you telling me that if we were to transition to all EVs our skies would look the same as they do today with ICE traffic? Yes. That picture from Spring 2020? Or a cool, dry fall day as opposed to high humidity day? I've seen the foothills of the Himalayas to your point, when no one was...
