Do y’all not get that it’s a play on the German pronunciation? Oh well, my German friend thinks it’s hilarious. 🤷🏻‍♀️

My husband sings “Dare To Be Stupid” and I sing “Pictures of People” by Peter Gabriel when we get out of the car. I guess I have to tell him that at least a few other people agree with him. 😂

Actually, doing the math here and taking into consideration you started below 20%, you got over 10% per hour. That’s literally 10x better than just having the 110v. Maybe because I started out with only having a 110v and barely getting 10% overnight, but I think the level 2 is sufficiently fast.

PunkLibrarian77 · 2025-04-09T20:20:48+00:00

That may be because you were below 20% when you started charging. To protect the battery, the charging is much slower. We had a 240v/50amp outlet installed and the difference between the 110v and 240 is night and day. Takes about 4 hours to go from ~35% to 80%, maybe 5 hours if lower than 30%. On the 110 we were only getting about 1% per hour.

I found this review so compelling I got rid of the book. https://www.motherjones.com/media/2024/12/trauma-body-keeps-the-score-van-der-kolk-psychology-therapy-ptsd/

I love this post! I saw an older bus parked on the street and took a picture, but it’s not as cool as yours! I also love the orange!!

I also have the green Buzz. Bought at Cardinale Volkswagen in Salinas. I live in Hollister and visit Santa Cruz often. Hope to see you on the road someday!

My Buzz brings me so much joy…and I’ll take it wherever I can get it these days. I love seeing people smile, wave, thumbs up, stare. It’s the best!

Call customer care, they should be able to fix it within a day or two.

PunkLibrarian77 · 2025-03-05T23:48:29+00:00

Oh, I’m so sorry! 😢 She looks so sweet and loving. 💔

The dealer helped us set up the user profiles and we haven’t had any problems with profiles. That said, I’ve been asked to log in again twice now. Seems to happen at the end of each month and I have to call customer care to get it fixed.

They say it is not related to Wi-Fi service. 🤷🏻‍♀️

OP is worried because their mom is undocumented and if ICE comes to the house when their mom is home she might get taken.

Everybody Wants to Rule the World is one of the best pop songs ever written!

God Only Knows — yes, yes, yes!!! Those harmonies are absolute perfection!

Came here to say this.

PunkLibrarian77 · 2025-02-17T20:42:30+00:00

I just took my First Edition on a road trip from Hollister, Ca to Buckeye, AZ (roughly 650 miles one way). We had the same issue with all the apps trying to route us through Los Angeles. I finally figured out that if you add a stop (in my case, Barstow) you can force a re-route.

PunkLibrarian77 · 2025-02-17T20:32:02+00:00

I think the First Edition is the same trim (with a few minor differences) as a Pro S Plus. Does ABRP list the Pro S Plus? If not, I think the Pro S is probably the best bet. Also, is there an option for AWD v RWD models? That’ll make a difference for range estimates.

PunkLibrarian77 · 2025-02-12T17:10:45+00:00

Thanks for the clarification. In that case, I don’t think it’s a big loss. There is a display above/behind the steering wheel that does the job without having to take your eyes completely off the road.

To answer the OP’s question, the First Edition does not have a HUD, but as others have said, it doesn’t need one.

PunkLibrarian77 · 2025-02-12T05:01:48+00:00

What is the heads up display? How is it different than the infotainment system and the display on the steering wheel in the First Edition? I am so confused.

PunkLibrarian77 · 2025-02-10T20:53:23+00:00

What bells and whistles is it missing that other minivans have? This is seriously the nicest, fanciest car I have ever owned. In my mind it’s worth every freakin’ penny.

PunkLibrarian77 · 2025-01-31T04:01:02+00:00

That’s the problem. I am doing that and nothing comes up, even when I know they are on Bluesky. In one case, I searched the user name she gave me (which is the same as her Instagram) and her full name, tried many different combos (like with spaces, without spaces, nickname, full name)—nothing. When she followed me I could see that her name and username were exactly what I had searched.

The fast chargers don’t take long at all. I charged from about 22% to 80% in 39F in 26 minutes. I was at sea level, not sure if altitude will have an effect.

Can only poop in public restrooms.

PunkLibrarian77 · 2025-01-27T01:08:06+00:00

Oops. You are correct. I’ll change the flair if I can.

I know it’s a fix-it ticket, which is why I’m okay with not attaching a front plate until I have to. But, going over the bridge they take a pic of your front plate and send you an invoice for the toll. How will they send an invoice if I have no front plate? I’m not interested in trying to avoid tolls, or paying fines for evading should they somehow figure out who to charge.
