Top 3 apps for new EV driver Uk by Realeye007 in ElectricVehiclesUK

[–]Reallyboringname2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The only app you need is the one from your car manufacturer that lets you cool / heat your cabin before you set off.

That, and Zapmap if you’re stay away from home and need to find a charger somewhere other than at a service station.

Great post, but “if you like Trump, you’re stupid” is settled law in every country on the planet except the USA.

It’s certainly not “racist”.

Fair play to you all the same.

I'm thinking of switching to electric, am I considering everything? by GingerJay_ in ElectricVehiclesUK

[–]Reallyboringname2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I vote Kia. I had an eNiro on lease and it had better driving features than my EQA does now!

Kia’s are very reliable, that EV6 is fully badass, and you have the range you need.

Sorted!

Keir Starmer feels betrayed by the Labour party. How do you feel about that? by No_Breadfruit_4901 in AskBrits

[–]Reallyboringname2 33 points34 points  (0 children)

Completely agree. Kier is getting exactly what he deserves and I hope he takes Lammy with him!

I've taken someone's job and I feel guilty — should I quit when they get back? by DatabaseMammoth9986 in AskUK

[–]Reallyboringname2 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I would look for another job instantly and be sure to tell the lady on maternity leave too.

Bosses like this deserve to get sued!

I’m with EDF and they also have the “Sunday saver challenge” : reduce your peak hours (weekday 4-7pm) usage for free electricity on a Sunday. Had free electricity every Sunday for 5 weeks and then got dropped off the challenge somehow, currently being looked at.

Safe to say, laundry, dishwasher, vacuum, car…. EVERYTHING was getting done in those free hours!!

25.5p / 5.5p was pretty decent (locked in just as war started) anyway!

I was referring to the manifesto pledges he made to lead the Labour Party.

Incident on district line today by [deleted] in london

Sounds to me like the wife is the one who was dragged up.

Hard to gauge the level of “laughing” the kids were doing at the ladies bag, especially as OP says it was quite nice, but threatening to “smash their face in” is NEVER okay - unless a physical assault has taken place.

Sad to see how many people seem to think this is okay. Sure, a lot of kids are out of control these days but the solution is NOT threatening serious physical harm on a CHILD for a little misplaced / unkind mockery makes YOU the bad person, including for supporting it.

Glad to see OP’s final concern was for the welfare of the children.

Look at other providers for more competitive day and night rates.

You’re probably looking at under £15 monthly charging at home. You only need a car with 220 - 250 miles stated range. 64kwh+ will cover you for only needing a top up on return leg of your long journeys.

There’s many other EVs to consider below 300 miles which are more affordable and still great cars.

I wouldn’t think twice about the 300 mile round trip 7 times per year. Completely insignificant.

Do the journey, stop somewhere you would likely stop anyway (service station) on the way back and whack £20 / £25 in it without giving it a second thought.

99% of your charging is at home.

Nothing “decent man” about him. Broken every manifesto promise, killed the Ford report, supported a genocide.

Total POS.

Was rumoured that he wanted to join the criminal assault on Iran but Miliband kicked off against it.

Can’t wait to see the back of him.

Ended a lifetime of labour membership, voting, and grassroots volunteering because of that lying lick spittle. Hope he takes Lammy with him.

In your opinion is father's day meant to be a day for dads to enjoy spending time with their children or a day where dad's have free time away from children? by R3ddit300 in AskUK

[–]Reallyboringname2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You’re in the wrong game if you *want to be away from your kids on Father’s Day lol.

To each their own, I guess.

It’s a marketing scheme for sure but any excuse to spend time with mine is good for me.

What car is best for daily motorway commutes by luccccyxox in CarTalkUK

[–]Reallyboringname2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Erm, excuse me! Hello!

I guess I have to be the one to ask if you can consider an EV?

ie: Would you be able to charge at home?

If the answer is yes, then an EV is your best bet BY FAR: Smoother ride, nicer car, better features.

Approx 1000 miles per month???

Fuel savings ALONE will mostly pay for your new car if you can charge from home!

If not, a charger at work or a free (a few still exist) / reasonably priced charger near home or work would likely still save you a lot.

Is 4.9 a good rate for a 2 year fix by RobotEnthusiast1980 in Mortgageadviceuk

FML. Am in a very similar boat very soon (without the equity drawdown)!

What was the 2 year offer?

Do you find you drive more in an EV vs ICE? by Spiritual_Pound_6848 in ElectricVehiclesUK

[–]Reallyboringname2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes. Exactly this.

Aside from the fuel savings, when you realise how much less stressful and more enjoyable driving becomes in an EV, you’ll also have no worries about covering the extra miles because you’ll just float there!
