• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

    Electric vehicles and the Grid

    You are correct. The other article I read mentioned a second cable in the test areas.

    Electric vehicles and the Grid

    You read the article? Can you point out where it states the charging connection is different? I see where it requires an App to be compatible with non-Tesla vehicles, in the countries you listed.

    Electric vehicles and the Grid

    Would you believe the connection for charging is the same for Tesla and non-Tesla vehicles? If you want to know more, read this: https://www.tesla.com/support/non-tesla-supercharging What bothers me is, why not have the U.S. as one of the test markets? Do you think now that your statement in...

    Electric vehicles and the Grid

    You mean something like this? https://www.tesla.com/supercharger I wonder if the connector is the same for all EV's? There are a number of them at area malls. Just never seen a vehicle connected.

    Electric vehicles and the Grid

    I was actually looking at the Toyota RAV4 hybrid. It had better 0-60 times than it's sister or brother (depending on how you look at it) RAV4's. Its 0-60 times reached into the 6's; that was in regards to what Utah said about power. The problem was, although its sticker price was quite a bit...

    Electric vehicles and the Grid

    They are using them, just not their whole fleets use them.

    Remembering those who served.

    I removed my original post to prevent any confusion between those that served in the military and those that died while serving.

    Here is an article for not using E15 gas in recreational vehicles....

    Thanks. I was thinking of the bare bones boat launches I go by when riding my bike (bicycle). There is no gas there; just a place to launch.

    Here is an article for not using E15 gas in recreational vehicles....

    I didn't put this with the original E15 thread. I know that once a thread has been out for a while I don't bother with it any more, and there may be others like me in that regard. I found this article interesting; others may already know the danger...

    Back and neck pain after Ultimate seat - anyone else? Fix?

    If you bring the bars back you will be retracting your scapula (shoulder blades). That will increase the pain in your upper back and probably increase neck pain. The way to test this without changing the position of the bars is, once you feel the pain, stop, release the handle bars, and...

    Kentucky Derby Winner

    Mike, I watched the race on the Today Show today. I found it amazing that the horse was 15th at the beginning of the final stretch, and weaved its way into first. The owner explained the nipping of the track horse at the end. The rider of the track horse was pulling the reins of Rich Strike...

    I read something I found a little strange on a news app.

    I made a mistake. Germany makes the tank, but Switzerland is the only country making the armament.

    I read something I found a little strange on a news app.

    The short version is- Switzerland is supplying tanks to Germany, and Germany was going to send the tanks to the Ukraine. But, Switzerland will not send the armament for the tanks, if the armament is going to the Ukraine. The tanks in question can only use the armament from Switzerland and I...

    Guess Who!?

    A while back there was a discussion on dog breeds and when a specific breed was mentioned there was a member that took offense to what was said. I won’t mention the breed b/c this member either bred them or trained them or both, and did not like the breed getting a bad rap. It was during the...

    Army Recruitment Ads - International Comparison

    I agree whole heartily. I sometimes wonder where I'd be today if I had applied for a civilian job to any of the bases in the Dam Neck (stationed at) or Norfolk area after hitch number 1 in the U.S. Navy. I guess I shouldn't wonder too much since I am completely retired as military and civilian.
