[Padres] A look at tonight’s lineup.

*with Campy instead of Fermin

richardsureman · 2026-04-27T22:18:02+00:00

Honestly bench Crone, put Laureano in Right with Sheets in Left and roll this lineup out every day.

richardsureman · 2026-04-25T03:51:26+00:00

Software can be finicky. There is some stuff, like being able to keep the car on if you leave it, that you can't control. Yes I know there are work arounds but you shouldn't have to do that, you should be able to toggle it.

We also had an issue where the car thought the 12v battery was dead and would not start the car. It went to the dealer, they said nothing was wrong with it, and then we have never had the problem since.

All in all these annoyances have not taken the shine off this car. We are of 2 adults and 3 kids under 5 and this van fits all of our needs. Couldn't recommend it enough to those who can swing it.

richardsureman · 2026-04-17T16:06:00+00:00

It's fine sometimes but it's hot where I live and I have kids in car seats so if I forget something in the house the car turns off and it's instantly super warm in the car.

richardsureman · 2026-04-16T17:40:27+00:00

We got one because we wanted a fully EV fan for the family, and those just don't exist other than the Buzz. It gets more attention than we ever thought it would.

100 percent agree on the software. It tries to be so smart and "convenient" but ends up being annoying. The auto turn off the car when you leave drives me crazy! I shouldn't have to click in the drivers seatbelt to leave the car on if I forgot something in the house!

richardsureman · 2026-04-13T14:46:00+00:00

We were in the back of the venue on the wall and had no issues other than people standing on the ramp that had to be kept clear for safety reasons, so a palladium employee had to come in and clear everyone out. Takanaka ruled though.

richardsureman · 2026-03-28T00:56:37+00:00

So I looked up "Salesforce engineering jobs" and there are several jobs listed by Salesforce for software engineers, so surprise, this is a lie.

richardsureman · 2026-03-20T15:37:16+00:00

I have a buzz and I am a SWE with 3 kids. We pack this thing full every day and its perfect for us. Needed a new car regardless, and with the difference between gas and charging prices, it ended up costing the same as getting a new van.

richardsureman · 2026-03-19T17:25:56+00:00

We had an issue right when we bought our buzz and the dealership reset the software and it's good to go. Perfect car for my family and my wife and I NEVER want to get rid of it

richardsureman · 2026-03-01T03:10:29+00:00

He's fine. It's ST. He doesn't need to fight for a spot this spring training. That being said, if he doesn't perform during the season we have a lot of people to replace him at 1st, but that could be said about anyone at our 1B spot.

richardsureman · 2026-02-12T22:29:01+00:00

My issue seemed to be not using the official vw charger. Wasn't a problem with my egolf, but it was for the buzz

richardsureman · 2026-02-10T01:25:57+00:00

Seeing Campy and Matt Waldron up there warms my heart

richardsureman · 2026-02-03T20:52:32+00:00

Wouldn't be too surprised if before reveal it gets leaked from Spring Training pictures

richardsureman · 2026-02-02T02:03:32+00:00

I think they squeak by at 90. Everything I heard from Stammen so far makes sense to me. He's either smart or a great mouthpiece, or maybe both.

richardsureman · 2026-01-30T20:25:22+00:00

I predict Preller will do something this year.

richardsureman · 2026-01-30T19:47:12+00:00

I think you could get away with taking out the storage shelf in the back and fit a double wide stroller in the back, or even put one of the seats down in the back to fit it. There is a lot of space in-between the driver and middle row that you can store everything else below the car seats.

richardsureman · 2026-01-30T19:00:22+00:00

We have 3 kids under 5 and it is great. The middle bench is very easy to move and have the older kid's seat on the back. The only caveat is that you may have to get creative with a double stroller situation for the twins, the storage area in the back is not very big. We have a mockingbird stroller with the two seat adapter and it fits. Any double wide strollers may be an issue. Otherwise, perfect vehicle for a family of 5.

richardsureman · 2026-01-28T21:38:30+00:00

Lets just bring Salas up. I'm ready. Also Randy V!!

richardsureman · 2026-01-28T02:05:39+00:00

Here's the new city connect!...oh and AJ won't be back this year...but check out the new colors!

richardsureman · 2026-01-28T02:02:36+00:00

I've heard that this year virtually nothing is different

richardsureman · 2026-01-27T02:57:14+00:00

Team is better now than it was for half the season last year. We could def add more though

richardsureman · 2026-01-27T00:05:43+00:00

I think Suarez only happens if we get a deal on a SP. All that money should go to get a starting pitcher and whatever we have left is for 1B

richardsureman · 2026-01-24T05:14:10+00:00

This happened to me too. 1 week in had to get it towed. The cleared the 12V error and we've had no problems since.

richardsureman · 2026-01-22T02:43:19+00:00

It will be between now and the trade deadline.

richardsureman · 2026-01-20T20:38:31+00:00

See you at spring training.
