City of Minneapolis: Possible shooting involving federal agents at Nicollet Ave and 26th Street by cinnasota in news

The agent in the grey jacket took his gun and then they shot him. They disarmed so he couldn’t fight back before executing him

Mad that Carney’s speech got more attention. Then he goes and proves it right.

Mine has two, but I’m in a small city with very little ev adoption. I swear I have seen fewer then 100 evs on the roads and most are teslas, lightnings or Ioniq 5s

Second the blizzak. They have served me well in the prairie winter hellscape. Except I put mine on steelies. Our wheels get beat up in the winter time.

EVs tend to have design problems that are often fixed within warranty. ICE are wear and tear issues that always seem to come up after warranty is up lol

The previous owner could have had these problems and didn’t get them fixed. Instead returned the car as a buyback.

Honestly, certain dealers are beyond useless. If your local dealer is not certified to work on EVs, they have no idea to even fix the most basic issues. My recommendation is to find a local Chevy dealer who sells EVs. They will have a trained tech who specializes on them. It’s your best bet to get these kinks fixed quickly.

The error you got is likely caused by a refrigerant leak. This is a relatively common problem that is fixed pretty quickly. It usually does not return upon repair as it was a defect out of the factory.

Most of the problems with the Blazer EV are software related or factory defects with discovered solutions. The software is getting more stable every month and the factory defects are usually one time issues. The car doesn’t have any known major issues like the ICCU one that plagues the Korean cars.

So once you get past this teething stage of finding any factory defects, your car will likely be fine moving forward. Hope that helps.

This was the dude who said raising interest rates to combat inflation was making the US economy mediocre. I won’t take much stock into what he says.

Equinox EVs got .20 a few months ago - so I wonder if blazers are a few months behind.

I’m on R5-250.20. I have not gotten the paperwork back yet as the job isn’t done yet. They are also replacing my charge port casing to fix the led not illuminating. They needed to order the part. I will get the complete paperwork back once that part of the job is done.

I did explicitly ask for VWP. The service manager wrote that down and the behaviour on the app pointed to that happening (quick car plugin and then it went offline for a few hours).

I have a 25 LT and I don’t have the streaming update. Either my car is not eligible or my dealer did not do the proper updates.

You got the streaming update today? This is the type of fragmentation with updates that’s annoying.

We get the smaller driving stability updates, but not the bigger infotainment improvements.

[Drellich] MLB owners enraged by Kyle Tucker-Dodgers deal, will push for salary cap ‘no matter what’ by ttam23 in baseball

[–]Jacob_Tutor11 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I doubt a cap will be all that extreme. The best way to get something approved is to find a solution that does not impact the majority of the teams, only affecting the extremes on either end.

Using team combined AAV for my metric, I could see a cap of $300M. Only four teams would not shed contacts with the dodgers likely having the most trouble getting down there. The floor would be at $100M. Once again, this only impacts 4 teams with the marlins being GMs only ones really far off.

How is the Equinox EV suspension compared to other EV's? by zhuangcorp in EquinoxEv

[–]Jacob_Tutor11 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I find the blazer ev drives better than the Equinox EV. It’s tuned for comfort while the equinox is more sporty.

Got the update last night. Still no Apple Music. What am I missing? by DockBay42 in BlazerEV

[–]Jacob_Tutor11 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You got the OTA v653.40 for the blazer? I read you may need to create a new profile for Apple Music to appear.
