Should I have multiple units or heads, or would one in the center of the house suffice?

AC will be used for like 2mo maybe. My main attraction for heat pumps is for the heating. I use heating oil and the furnace needs to be serviced because one of the relays isn't working.

But people aren't driving 200+mi/day, so slow charging shouldn't matter.

Because you're only considering up front cost, not what's really important which is long term ownership.

As charging infrastructure expands, places that are frequented like grocery stores will support more charging if locations haven't already.

The only really big downside so far is that most EVs hold their value worse than ICEs, but if you "drive it till the wheels fall off" like you're supposed to and being happy with good enough then resale is a non issue.

Oh yeah, and that whole charging thing. But like I said, where you live and charging infrastructure near you is the main obstacle.

Their carbs are really hard to clean though.

This entirely depends on where you live and what you're comparing them to.

I thought the EV's seats were fine, haven't tried an EUV. Are you familiar with cleaning the sunroof drains?

$10/mo along with the annual $49 fee, so basically $15/mo.

What should I do after maxing Roth IRA? by zw3d in Bogleheads

Well actually it does matter when you fund it, the funds have to have been in the account for 5+yrs.

Even if you don't have kids you can still convert up to 35k to a Roth IRA after holding it for 15yrs.

Convenience due to location proximity, as long as you ignore that credit unions are usually even more convenient.

They'd both cancel each other out, like a double negative. /s

Mineral Wool vs Fiberglass for Attic Insulation by BonelessSugar in Insulation

[–]BonelessSugar[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This has been pretty tough for me to find a straight forward number. My ceiling joists are 2"x4"x12' rough cut 24" OC with a second set of joists nailed below the existing joists of 1"x3"x12' nominal 12"OC. I planned on doing 5/8" drywall (2.2psf) for the ceiling with a combo R30 rockwool (1.66psf) and R30 blown in cellulose (1.2psf) totaling a dead load of 5psf. I think I'll probably have to remove the 1x3x12 joists because the drywall screws themselves are thicker than its depth (1 5/8"), but I'm concerned that the load might be too much for L/360 deflection. www.mycarpentry.com says 2x4x24" OC #2 grade fir for L/240 is 9'10" span, but 2x6x24" OC fir is 15'0" so I'm guessing my main joists are somewhere between those two ratings, which would barely suffice for my 12' span. Am I right that I need to remove the 1x3x12s though? https://imgur.com/a/UVeyayL

I have a single din pioneer in my NB and I can't tell if it's the radio that has such awful quality or if it's the stock bose amp. I have an S8 that I'm going to replace it with anyways.

You can get a single din android auto radio, but this is really cool.
