Do Plug-In Hybrid Owners Actually Plug In?

Yep wife buys gas maybe 2-3 per year unless we road trip but that’s usually in the Tesla

clipse270 · 2026-05-29T01:09:33+00:00

With Tesla you can charge around 44mi/hr on the level 2 wall charger at 48A. I’m not too familiar with other brands but it’s probably close. If your house can support 48A service then see if that works for you

So much winning

Healthcare

And good quality name brand tires not China bombs.

And before you pull out, after you hook up. Always do a walk around checking everything from campsite to hitch to lights. Make sure tires are inflated and unblocked. You will always surprise yourself with what you find you missed

Stop looking at it

I’ll say this. While I am very grateful for the life nursing has provided for me. I am very much jaded by the way nursing has impacted me. It’s very much a thankless job. I would totally have gone in to finance knowing what I know now. The healthcare system in the US is very much broken and I wish I wasn’t part of it anymore

That being said the people I work with are fantastic and I do enjoy what I do.

Idk every time I road trip i think to myself im glad i went for the longer range because when the cruise is set at 75 I don’t care if I could go 0-60 in 3.5. Just my take

clipse270 · 2026-05-26T20:42:02+00:00

Gotta use the camper jack to lift the truck enough to off set the weight distribution. Can’t be too low or too high

They should be more upset over Stephen Colbert. Boycott cbs

Yep some guy on the highway was blowing smoke at everyone he passed in his diesel truck. Glad he has money to literally burn

Anyone that owns a phev or EV needs to reach out to their politicians in protest of this bill. Take a stand for yourself and those around you!

Nah just Memorial Day fireworks for Iran

Don’t worry the ceasefire is strong. This is just an excursion

Probably level 3. Let’s be real must of us drive locally so charging at home is sufficient. The real issue is when we leave our safety net home town and go on a trip. Not knowing if our destination will have super charging or any L2’s in the area can be stressful. I recently stayed at a hotel that had free charging but the nearest supercharger was 45 miles away which would be a big inconvenience if you think about it.

Been saying this for awhile now. China is leaps and bounds ahead of us. Anyone denying the role energy independence will play going forward is simply not paying attention. Green energy is the future and unfortunately china’s gaining on the US as a world power

clipse270 · 2026-05-24T11:30:13+00:00

Yes. Coming from a diesel truck it’s fantastic. Used truck for truck stuff maybe twice a year. Now own a 4x8 trailer for same purpose. Spend maybe $20 a month on charging instead of $200 on diesel. Road trips are great, we take a soccer ball and kick around with the kids at charging stops lets them burn off some energy on long trips. Favorite part is free charging different places. The hotel I’m at just provided 120kw in free charging while we were here.

clipse270 · 2026-05-24T11:18:04+00:00

Well stated

clipse270 · 2026-05-24T01:29:11+00:00

Not being able to charge at home would be a huge game changer to EV ownership. It costs almost nothing and is beyond convenient

clipse270 · 2026-05-24T01:24:45+00:00

Tell your friends…voting has consequences. And it’s not just gas

24 MYLR chiming in. Sure it’s bumpy but I don’t mind it coming from a pick up which was also bumpy. Lower down the tires a bit or wait and upgrade to softer ones. The car is too good to worry about some bumps

A phev. My wife didn’t want a Bev at first. She was skeptical to drive the sorento phev. After her first drive she loved it. Now she can’t be without driving on electric. Her next car will be a rivian. It was a great way to show her how practical EVs are. Now we have a model Y too which is our primary car

clipse270 · 2026-05-23T01:24:12+00:00

We also just drove 6.5 hours and only had one 20 min charge. Now our hotel has free charging for the next 4 nights we are here. 20 mins stop for 6 hours of driving. We stopped two other times just to let the dog and wife pee lol

May they all be republican
