That moment when you realize you probably should put a new evaluation license on your home firewall before it expires…in hours. ?
@larand I wouldn't dream of an electric vehicle at this point in time. Hybrids make some sense, at least, but as with everything, depends on your use case.
@larand I assume how often you replace the battery will depend on how much you drive your car. One of the taxi drivers told me in 500,000 kilometers (this was in Vancouver), he replaced the battery once and it was about to need it again.
Seeing as how mine is almost two years old and has just over 10,000 miles on it, I'm thinking I might be ok on the battery for quite a while. :P
@larand A lot of taxis/Ubers are Priuses (or is it Prii?) and I've asked them about why. Aside from the mileage, other than regular oil changes and occasionally changing a rather expensive battery (about $3k), not much goes wrong with them. Which is the kind of car that I like.
@hazardwarning I remember as a kid my mom not allowing me to eat anything with "preservatives" in it. Most of what needed it was wheat and products that used it (sugary cereal). Sure that along with the wheat were bad news.

@hazardwarning Maybe that undoes some of the damage potatoes cause on their own carb wise.

@peemee Rendered fat from any animal is better than vegetable oil.
