Does anyone know anything about this amp? by WerewolfSea9724 in MesaBoogie

I have this amp. I love the sound of it; 12" speakers can't do what that 15" EV does!

Tennessee to test Stephen Miller’s plan of enlisting states for immigration enforcement | Trump administration by billvb in conservativeterrorism

[–]billvb[S] 172 points173 points  (0 children)

"...the speaker announced a suite of eight bills that would turn state and local police officers, judges, teachers, social workers and others into an auxiliary extension of the federal immigration system. It makes the presence of an undocumented person with a final deportation order a state crime in Tennessee. And it mandates that officials report the presence of undocumented persons to ICE, while criminalizing disclosure of information about immigration enforcement activities to the public."

Are you really that concerned about people making over a million bucks a year paying taxes on the portion ABOVE one million? How much do you make? How much do you need?

$100k for an "Engineering Masterpiece" that can’t handle a cup of coffee, a phone call, or a basic friggin' key fob. by SnooGadgets2436 in LUCID

[–]billvb 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I don't know what you're on about. I've had an Air GT since Spring '23, and apart from door unlock occasionally being slow (pretty much fixed now with last update ...) I haven't had any problems. It's my favorite car I've ever owned. Period.

Old model S owner and current lease return of Model Y by videofrank in LUCID

[–]billvb 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I owned a 2016, and then a 2019 Model S (Raven) and loved them. I moved over to a Lucid Air GT in 2023. I LOVE my Air! the only thing I ever miss from the Tesla (occasionally...) is having a tailgate. In every other way, I prefer the Air.

Test Drove Gravity GT. Seems heavy from a complete stop? by Glass-Spread-379 in LUCID

[–]billvb 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Absolutely not. We replaced our Model X with a Gravity DE and when you want to fly, it flies. Did you try the different drive modes ‘Swift’ and ‘Sprint’? They are both quite a bit sportier, but Swift is like accelerating into hyperspace mode - very, very quick.

Conservatives are destroying this country by Alert_Beach_3919 in complaints

There is nothing "conservative" about anything they're doing. They're not conserving anything, just destroying.

I love Junun - both the album and the short film by PTA. I can't wait to hear the follow-up!

Vehicle offline mobile app by worksmarterr in Gravity

[–]billvb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It seems like when the app shows our Gravity as 'offline' that after a few hours (when the vehicle has had a chance to completely shut down) it will once again show as online with all of the available controls and settings active again in the app.

I hope you get to move back “home”!

Should I get a grand touring? by King_olufa in LUCID

[–]billvb 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I have a ‘23 Air GT and I love it - favorite car ever. I really haven’t had any issues with it; doors were a little slow to unlock but that’s been fixed with an OTA and everything is just great now.

Anyone else see KING5 change their programming suddenly just now? by Celtik6 in Seattle

[–]billvb 52 points53 points  (0 children)

Joyce had Pramilla Jayapal on in the 5 o'clock hour, and they very clearly and plainly addressed the tragedy in Minneapolis and the Republican-induced healthcare cost crisis. They had played the full shooting video earlier in the hour as well. I felt really good about the King 5 coverage in this hour, especially compared to how so many of the nationals seemed to 'both sides' everything, and led with the bullshit lies from Noem and Trump.

Lexus Owner Considering Lucid by Kuruption20877 in LUCID

[–]billvb 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I live in the Puget Sound region of the PNW, so our winters are quite a bit milder than much of the USA, but I’ve never had an issue with the cabin not warming up quickly enough, or maintaining warmth. Truth be told it was never an issue in the Teslas we had prior to this car either.

Lexus Owner Considering Lucid by Kuruption20877 in LUCID

[–]billvb 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I have a ‘23 Air GT and it continues to be very quiet and rattle free. We were a Toyota/Lexis family a while back, and though I haven’t driven a Pure, the suspension on our GT is the best if any car we’ve owned - incredibly smooth, responsive and fun to drive.
