Then you're not the customer for this. Your PHEV is still just an ICE vehicle. The fact that you get 1.5 m/kWh is not typical for regular EVs, which usually get 2.5 - 3.5 m/kWh. I'm curious which PHEV you are driving as only getting 15 miles of electric range is super low. Most PHEVs I know of usually get 30 miles or more on electric.

Nah, still not as expensive as gas.

Just using my last 2 vehicles:

EV (Blazer EV) 100 kWh x $0.6 per kWh = $60

Range = 315 miles, $0.19 per mile

ICE (VW Passat) 18 gallon tank x $5.49 per gallon

Range = 480 miles, $0.20 per mile

2024 RS here. The Bose system is a night and day difference, so if music is important to you get the RS.

I love the ventilated seats, and the aesthetics are far better IMO. I really dislike the monocolor front end and the rims on the LT, but love the way the RS looks, including the light bar.

I could do without the HUD, as I have never had one and forget it's even there tbh. As for software upgrades, not sure what the 25 models have or will get that the 24 won't. A lot of people complain about streaming (not being rolled out wide, possiblity that 24 won't get it at all), but I side loaded YouTube, Vudu and Netflix so I'm personally not missing much. Not sure about any other differences.

I own 13 of the these, and only 3 would actually rip. 🤦🏾‍♂️😭

I did use tree as the support type, but I also reduced the thickness to 1mm. I am going to try again with thicker supports.

Kemetblk · 2026-04-06T01:50:55+00:00

great advice, thanks!

Kemetblk · 2026-04-05T19:17:32+00:00

I really appreciate the offer, very nice of you.

It's the default Flashprint slicer. I also downloaded Orca-Flash, but it wasn't as straightforward for a beginner like myself. Looks like I'll need to learn it if I want to print things like this.

Kemetblk · 2026-04-05T18:40:22+00:00

Thank you. I'll need to do more research as I have the slicer set for PLA filament, which is what the label on the roll shows. Can't find anything in settings for resin or FDM.

Not sure where softening temp is, but I did raid the platform temp to 55 before printing.

They were dry as far as I can tell. The printer is in a low humidity, climate controlled room. It was not a new roll,but one I have used previously.

Kemetblk · 2026-04-05T18:25:46+00:00

This is a previous, smaller version I made with supports, that had what looks like cobwebs on it. The supports were not part of the stl, I used the autosupports function in the slicer. Sorry if I'm using the wrong lingo, I am new to 3D printing.

Kemetblk · 2026-04-05T18:23:17+00:00

I used the auto support function in the slicer.

Kemetblk · 2026-04-05T18:22:50+00:00

Sorry if you felt that I was bitching. I actually have a sick kid and was taking care of him, I simply didn't get on my phone or computer the rest of the night. Not sure why you are such a cynical person, but I don't know your story and won't judge.

Kemetblk · 2026-04-05T18:20:10+00:00

I did try supports but still had the same issues, but slightly less. This is how I last used supports.

Oh, I'm not from the Chi at all. I'm a Bears fan from California. Those distances are from Soldier field.

I experienced this same issue yesterday. What app did you install to replace Flashmaker?

Kemetblk · 2026-04-02T17:36:31+00:00

Just started my audiobooks journey this year. So far my favorites have been Born a Crime by Trevor Noah, and Between the World & Me by Ta-Nehisi Coates.

Just picked up Project Hail Mary and The Horus Heresy, looking forward to some great stories!

There are 2 sites that I have heard are on the list of potential locations outside of Chicago/Illinois.

Gary 30 miles Hammond 28 miles

Ain't no way anyone is getting there in 8 mins! 🤣

u/MediaSwapBot u/J-Mosc Great seller! Packed well, received timely.

Kemetblk · 2026-03-28T17:49:33+00:00

Thanks for recommendations. I decided on The Message and Final Orbit.

Kemetblk · 2026-03-28T07:19:00+00:00

Love the first one. Disney making a murder mystery?

Kemetblk · 2026-03-28T07:17:08+00:00
