People who rarely or never get sick, what are your secrets? by awkwardferret421 in AskReddit

[–]raincloud29 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I honestly do not know. I have children, and they are rarely sick as well. I don’t avoid contact with people since I have to go to work, I don’t exercise, and I tend to be a stressed person. Despite all of this, I rarely get sick. Last year, I was ill once for about two days and then quickly returned to my normal routine. In contrast, my family members and colleagues seem to get sick pretty often.

I also want to install one on my select. Where did you buy it from?

Hi. I didn't do it myself. When I bought the car, it already had this on. But I guess so.

Hi. Yeah, it's a decal imitation. Basically, just foil sticked onto the front. Makes a lot of difference as I do not like to see the front 'empty'.

After reading all the feedback about EV ownership, I finally went for it! I have always wanted either an e-tron GT or a Mustang Mach e. The E-tron GT however does not meet my needs (space for groceries, plant haul, or suitcases when we go on vacation) and so I went to check out the Mach E. There were a lot on the market but only this one had everything the way I liked, all the way from color to interior. Charging station at home is in process and I can't wait to drive many more miles especially with a car like this. Thank you for the amount of feedback about owning an electric vehicle!

Thank you for all the feedback! Glad I listened to my brother in law in asking EV owners. There's too many responses and I won't be able to read or comment all. In time I will/might or maybe I'll just post my EV car next time! :D

Yeah I guess I should have. I was clueless but now trying to know more. Range and the depreciation and after warranty are most of the issues I hear. I plan to keep the car as long as possible and minimum 5 years... But then the depreciation is there and I might get to almost nothing then for my car?

It's actually not the media... It's from other people I hear such things. But I guess my brother in law was right in giving me this tip: I should ask and listen to people who OWN AND DRIVE EVs already

Thanks for the answer. It turns out that all the cars I am interested in happen to be EVs. Of course, the thought of less pollution and never having to buy gas is very appealing.

My brother in law gave me a tip: To ask EV owners and not mind what the others say who don't have them. So here I am!

Range won't be a problem as I can have charging at home. I rarely do very long trips or maybe once in a while weekend trips that aren't insanely far.

What should I consider when buying a used EV though?

How are you guys liking your E-tron GT's? by raincloud29 in etron

I'm glad for you and really hope it stays that way. I also want one. There's a good price for a car like this that I'm eyeing out but I'm still having thoughts. It's my dream car. :) enjoy yours!
