ICE v Electric: Cost and Emissions

[Harvey]

The CRV hybrid seems to be improving. I know it's warm, but I don't remember getting 35+ on the highway last summer. Came close to 38 on the last drive. Sometimes I look down at the dash and I'm in EV at 68 mph.

"Around town" hasn't changed.

Ugh man. Can you link me to the original post on this? (Is there one?)

I don't think there is an original post. Jason, FRK, and SlowPoke know cuz we have a group chat going. I was skiing with Jason and on a random flat spot fell forward and heard a crack. That was January 13. Thank goodness Jason was there (not exactly there when it happened) he gave me some advil and I hit the road.

14 weeks later my long run was 12 miles this past Saturday. I was very lucky that the break didn't move (non-displaced). 4 weeks in a sling, 6 weeks no physical activity. When I first started running again I could only go like 5 minutes without a walk break.

I plan to do a half on Father's Day and my training is on track for that. All good!

Stupid question but I can't find an answer online.

I got a Jeep 4xE which has the J1772 connector. I plugged it in at a Chargepoint station and it was eminently straightforward. But then I went to another Chargepoint J1772 station and to my surprise the plug didn't fit. Then yesterday I stopped on the thruway and the plug didn't fit there either. What am I missing? Are there multiple J1772 form factors?

Pull up to the gas pump, they always work.

Not if ya were in Spain or Portugal yesterday unless the gas station had a backup gasser generator.
Horses don’t need gas nor electric. Same with bikes.

Even aside from needing electricity, with my old POS Escape the gas pump did not always work. The pump would constantly turn off, and it would be difficult to get a full tank. I believe it had something to do with cold temperatures and back pressure due to poor tank ventilation.
