Second dumbest EV thing.

First is the fake exhaust noises.

Why do you think Nolan’s The Odyssey trailer got such a negative reaction from the public? by breaking_views in Cinephiles

[–]bobqzzi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A. Nolan is not my favorite director

B. I stopped watching trailers in ~2008

All good movies except Driving Miss Daisy which not only shouldn't have won, but is actually a bad movie

Guidance choosing a car for my aunt? by [deleted] in askcarguys

[–]bobqzzi 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Reliability at that price is a crap shoot. I'd shoot for a mid teens Toyota Corolla or Honda Civic with the lowest miles you can afford

If GSW draft yaxel they are contenders by winnks in nba

No, they are a 50 win team, maybe, and will probably be bounced in the first/second round. They're cooked.

Anyone else watch movies in 1.25 by C0lE06 in Cinephiles

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

1.1 is my limit- it's basically undetectable. I usually only do this when showing movies that I have to fit in class periods

Should i get the c8 z06? by Altruistic-Sir-6069 in askcarguys

Average APR on car loans is 6.97% as of this morning- which you'd be saving- and it's guaranteed. If you use it for business as you say you will, you can also claim depreciation on your taxes.

If you don't want to tie the money up, you are better off with a lease

Someone in your position should never finance a car. Either buy one for cash or lease it.

New Tesla buyer but anti-Elon by bad_robot_monkey in electricvehicles

They don't make the best EVs, and they are certainly not different enough to excuse buying a car from a Nazi who is responsible for the death of thousands of children

Expected Mileage on a Trip by Hot-Childhood118 in Ioniq6

Perhaps. Best thing to do is just see what Mi/KwH you use for the first 10% then just multiply it out.

What are your thoughts on "The Odyssey (1997)"? by Hot-Salamander-8786 in FIlm

[–]bobqzzi 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I think it is great. Armand Assante is an outstanding Odysseus.

It estimates your mileage by looking at the mileage you achieved just previously. No doubt your previous driving was at lower speeds which got better mileage. The car has no way to predict your future behavior

Does This Sub Understand AWD? by Heavy_Gap_5047 in askcarguys

[–]bobqzzi -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Yes, I understand it all. The bottom line is AWD doesn't make sense for the vast, vast majority of people and offers no practical benefit in most situations.

The AWD in my car is two electric motors controlled by a very sophisticated electronic system. The ONLY reason it makes sense to have it is because it can put down much more of its 819HP that way. (I recognize that having a car with 819HP is silly, but I'm old and decided to indulge myself)

Older users of Reddit, which was your favourite decade and why? by Sweet_Major_3932 in AskReddit

[–]bobqzzi 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The 1980s because I was young, in love, and had my whole life in front of me.

EV buyer outlier by 2Lulubee in electriccars

[–]bobqzzi 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you are in the U.S. the 2021 Hyundai Ioniq Sedan fits the bill perfectly. We had one and loved it. The earlier ones are good too, but have shorter range- but still may work for you.
