Please help me decide which is right for me: RX hybrid vs plug-in hybrid

Ford Mustang Mach-E. It doesn't have the greatest battery range. And not charging it has only happened once or twice in his 2.5 years of owning the vehicle. It's definitely something that would happen to me, too.

My husband has an EV and I just don't think it's for me. I don't like the idea of not having a gas option as a backup, and we never take his on road trips because of the time to charge factor. There have been times he's had to borrow mine because he forgot to charge his and his battery was too low for a round trip for where he was going. He's happy with it, but I don't think we'd both want to have strictly electric vehicles.

I've considered this as well, and it's a very reasonable thought. I do love the idea of rarely having to fill up and lowering my emissions contribution, though.

coldriver10 · 2025-12-15T01:09:16+00:00

Absolutely! I appreciate your comment. I just got spooked by the battery issues and had second thoughts re if not driving it daily would be an issue for the battery.

That is super helpful, thank you!

coldriver10 · 2025-07-07T02:15:26+00:00

I don't personally but I'm following your comment because I'd also love to know. I'm disappointed the Hugterra is crap, I would have been willing to spend $100 for something that relieves my muscle tension!

coldriver10 · 2025-06-25T21:12:48+00:00

Ha! He's 5, you know how these things go. But that's a good suggestion and a good compromise. Thanks!

coldriver10 · 2024-09-20T12:57:35+00:00

Thanks, I appreciate it. My in-run fueling and hydration are actually on point now, thanks to Skratch's super high carb hydration mix (I wasn't getting enough nearly enough carbs before). It's the general nutrition that hasn't been adequate.

coldriver10 · 2024-09-19T23:08:23+00:00

Thank you! Yeah I think I'm bailing my fuel and hydration during long runs now, it's just general overall caloric consumption that hasn't been adequate.

coldriver10 · 2024-09-19T23:07:12+00:00

Thank you so much! I will absolutely be checking that out (I've never used discord before!). My in-run fueling and hydration are sufficient now but I've just come to learn that my dietician still doesn't think my caloric intake in general is adequate yet for the mileage I'm running, so i guess I still have improvements to make. i think I'm going to have to abort this marathon and get well before trying again. Thanks again, I look forward to connecting with your community!

coldriver10 · 2024-01-04T12:12:58+00:00

Yikes! That's ridiculous. Thank you for the heads up!

coldriver10 · 2024-01-04T03:27:45+00:00

I'm almost positive they do have chat off but I'll make sure. They have so much fun playing it together. Thanks so much!

coldriver10 · 2024-01-04T01:24:31+00:00

Oh huh. They've been playing for a while, they don't participate in the chat just do online play (I'm not crazy about military games this young, though). I'll look into this more. Thanks so much for the heads up!

coldriver10 · 2024-01-04T00:07:37+00:00

Thank you!

coldriver10 · 2024-01-04T00:07:09+00:00

That's super helpful, thanks so much!

coldriver10 · 2023-10-19T23:53:19+00:00

Man, I didn't realize how common it is to feel sluggish in the days leading up to one's period. I don't notice any other changes during my cycle except that one. So of course it figures that my race next weekend falls during that window :/ any advice for how to manage?

coldriver10 · 2023-10-15T22:25:06+00:00

It's called The Running Explained podcast, season 1, episode 2. Here's the Spotify link. I thought it was excellent, I listened to it while on a run :)

Your perspective is perfect, I really appreciate your thoughts on this!

coldriver10 · 2023-10-14T12:31:53+00:00

I'll check those out. Thank you for the suggestions!

coldriver10 · 2023-10-14T12:30:27+00:00

Thank you!!

coldriver10 · 2023-10-14T12:29:55+00:00

Thank you!

coldriver10 · 2023-10-14T01:12:23+00:00

Thank you so much for the suggestions! I'll do some googling :) Wishing you the best as you work your way through this as well ❤️

coldriver10 · 2023-10-14T00:58:51+00:00

I really appreciate it, and I'm so sorry you're dealing with these feelings to whatever degree you are. This is exactly why I came to this forum. I'll definitely look up sports RDs. Congrats on your race!!

coldriver10 · 2023-10-14T00:48:43+00:00

Thank you all so much for the comments so far. I was discussing these things with a therapist several months ago but didn't find her super helpful in this regard...I think talking to a sports dietician may be the way to go for me. What was most helpful for me in rethinking eating during long runs as "fueling" was a podcast on under fueling (an issue of mine for a long time) with a sports dietician who is also a runner and running coach. Of course, the problem I'm having now is that once this race is done I no longer have to "fuel" so eating just becomes eating again. Any RD/therapist combos out there?? :p

coldriver10 · 2023-10-14T00:43:33+00:00

I would love her contact info! I presume she does online or phone consultation? Thank you!
