[55:00] Join Bo and Ryan for a look at this week's EV news.
Don't just listen to the EVcast -- experience and be a part of it! Join us at 1:00pm Eastern, M-F, in our live video broadcast and chat along with us!
Oh, Bo! Say it isn't so! Turn you eyes from Temptation's oily harlot know as Porshe! Stay on the straight and narrow young man!
Is it my crummy speakers, or has your sound been getting quieter?
So, Bo- how many packages of silly bands have you bought for your teary-eyed daughter;-)
I am not sure you can call it price gouging if it is not a necessity. That said, I would think twice about bringing any repeat business back to someone who is going to charge $20,000 more than other dealers. And I think you hit it Bo- this will reflect badly on GM, fair or not.
No- MSRP is usually the HIGHEST you would pay to sneaky cars salesmen, and then only if you are unprepared-or want a popular car.
Did Elon Musk go to the Bob Lutz school of media management?
quiescent- not moving!

The Panamera Bo? Really? Possibly the ugliest car ever. Well, you could get a Cayenne if you were into the really ugly. Perhaps you should sit on this one for a while and see if you still love the looks.
Oh, no wait, the Panamera is not the ugliest car, that would be the Nissan LEAF.
Ouch! Really- I LIKE the look of the Leaf- but its appearance does seem to engender some strong emotions about it. As do other cars it seems;-)
So, John- do you have a favorite EV at the moment, as far as looks?
Paul,
Let's see what my choices are1) Nissan Leaf2) Chevy Volt3) Mitsubishi i-MiEV4) Coda Automotive
Did I miss anything? (Well, Tesla is outside my budget and hopelessly impractical)
Among those choices, I would have to say the Chevy Volt is the best looking.

A battery is best stored between 20% and 80%, and likes to be kept cool. You may keep them (e.g. laptop batteries) in a refrigerator. Do NOT deep discharge lithium batteries. Car batteries have caps at the bottom and top to keep them roughly in the "optimal range".
Well- there's the NMG and the Tango (though, again, not for the budget-conscious)- and it looks like Toyota is going to re-release the Rav4 as an EV- I wouldn't mind one of those either- small SUVs are nice looking and practical.
