    2009 Ford Focus, Keep or Replace?

    Yep. Loving $4 and $5 fill-ups on my Kia EV6. :D Short of having to replace most of it, service is cheaper. The labor can be a lot, plus not having the car if it needs to be in for days or regularly going in for repairs. The car market is nuts right now. Used cars are selling high, new...

    Van's RV-10 down in Marin Headlands - two dead

    Sadly that is true. I've also been told by lawyers that you can't sign your minor children's right to sue, which I thought rather odd. I can sign a waiver to allow them to participate in activities, but not sign a waiver that they won't sue if I get hurt doing an activity. :confused:

    Van's RV-10 down in Marin Headlands - two dead

    Problem is the deceased signed that, but not the party/parties suing; spouse, parents, children, siblings, passenger's family, etc. Sad how litigious this country is. As we know, statistically the cause was the pilot. Even then, the passenger got in the plane of their on free will. I wish...

    Tesla Model 3 - Finally.

    I may want to hit eBay for a better drunk for my EV6. The ones in the US are tiny. Apparently it’s a “child safety” thing. :rolleyes: I’ll just need to make sure mine has the right setup to connect the bigger frunk they have for European owners.

    What should I buy? (Car edition)

    Nissan Altima is a pretty good option. Highway mileage it's rated up to 39 mpg; base 4 cylinder, 35 mpg for the turbo version. A niece has one and it really goes a long way on the highway between fill-ups. I just got a Kia EV6, so great on the "fuel" economy (it's an electric vehicle), but...

    Personal x-wind minimums, & how often do you divert?

    I can only think of two diversions right now. One was for the runway being closed due to a plane having the nose gear collapse on landing. The other was for strong thunderstorms across Florida from the Gulf to the Atlantic. Several business jets were there at JAX with me, doing the same...

    Tesla Model 3 - Finally.

    Decided to stop by the DC Fast charger on the way home from our daughter's home after lunch today. It's an Electrify America 150 kW DC Fast charger. So, I was surprised that it started at 176 kW. :cool: As it got closer to 80% it slowed down to 155 kW. Still really nice, especially for a...
