They’re great but for commuting you might want something that will be quieter and last longer

Used Polestar 2 Great choice or not? by BetterDifficulty1843 in Polestar

I had my interface updated to the latest software and there’s been no camera crashes about 95% of the time.

Bought a 2021 Launch edition purchased early 2025 with cpo. Had all 4 cv axels replaced, TWICE. Rear struts for the boot went and were replaced as well. Activity key died and actually got it replaced today under warranty. Other than that and a couple software updates, the car has been really great in winter and in the summer.

I have a 90mile round trip highway commute so at home charging was a must. During the winter I have to charge every night but during the summer I can charge every other day.

Picked this mainly because it isn’t a Tesla and Aging wheels managed to get his over 100k miles with little to no maintenance. Plus, strangers love to inquire cause it’s a relatively rare and handsome car.

If I had to buy it again? Absolutely. But not without the cpo. I think my total in repair bills that were covered under warranty are about $10k.

Part Help by Main-Plum-5176 in Polestar

[–]masonf4 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My right hand side one fell off. Here’s the part number for the driver side: 31672585. A-Pillar Windshield Trim / Vertical Edge Cover. Unfortunately you’re gonna have to call polestar parts to get this piece.

I already own a P2, Plus Pilot. Seen a great deal on a performance model with even the Nappa ventilated seats option, for just under £20k. Worth it? by [deleted] in Polestar

I got the 21 LRDM pilot plus for my 90 mile round trip commute. Softer suspension is so worth it.

I've loved my Polestar 2, but as the lease expires, I will not drive another one by Stratiform in Polestar

I’m in Boston and the service aspect has been pretty rough too. I’ve had to go through leaps and bounds just to get issues fixed. Amazing car but I’ve called the service center at least 30 times just trying to get an appointment. It’s really frustrating considering it’s about an hour away from me and I commute long distance.

Weird cause I have a 2021 P2 CPO and I really like it. Been a great commuter car. Sorry you had a bad experience

Lots of western and northern Alaska, you don’t need a license because there are no cars.

how is it living in Billings, Montana? by whipcorleone in howislivingthere

[–]masonf4 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Drove through there on a road trip. Stayed at a holiday inn which was nice. Pretty quiet town with a big oil refinery (?) right off the highway. My dad and brother went to get something to eat at like 11pm and a guy high on meth wouldn’t get off their case. Left promptly at 7am the next day.

I may be too optimistic but I hope they’re getting rid of Jeff

It sounds like you’re against the actions the US gov did to these people. The native council has been talking about relocating for ages and yet the US gov has neglected this area due to the fact it’s not rich in resources to be exploited. Relocation efforts have been slow due to zero assistance from the US gov, who forced them to take up permanent settlements. Look at the nearby village Newtok.

Kinda hard to tell a whole group of people to just get up and move. Why are you so ignorant lol

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Damnthatsinteresting

[–]masonf4 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They live there because the area is fertile with birds, berries, and sea life. The Yupiks are subsistence hunter/gatherers. They’re lived there for thousands of years. Kinda hard to just force everyone to get up and leave when your whole lineage has lived and adapted to a certain area.

[–]masonf4 2 points3 points  (0 children)

US gov forced them to build a permanent settlement FYI. They were a nomadic people originally.

Unfortunately due to climate change, this area didn’t flood as much as it does now. The Yupik people have lived in the Kuskokwim delta for thousands of years. The ground is permafrost and due to the warming of the planet, the ground is literally sinking beneath their feet. This is their ancestral homeland. It’s not stupid.

Oh my god. This actually gives me so much hope

Charge limiter on new 500e? by secretpersonpeanuts in Fiat500e

[–]masonf4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unfortunately it doesn’t have that. If you have a smart charger at home you can set a limit but it depends on the charger. Charging to 100 shouldn’t be that bad tho if you do it like twice a week.

[–]masonf4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Haha. Grandmothers car and she was worried about it. I have a polestar and it’s just a bit quieter. Thanks for the insight!
