Only one EV charger at home?!

They just blow away, not a problem. It's not like you're filling indoors.

Anyway, see the floppy plastic ring round them? That stops the vapours.

Why is she scared of using petrol?

You only use one hand to hold the nozzle. Or you could count?

I've never had foam when filling a diesel car.

That is not reasonable. 7kW is a trickle charge for overnight purposes. Decent EVs can power your house, why can't they charge a car?

People using Li Ion in their house are fools. Lead Acid is a tried and tested chemistry at a SEVENTH of the price. The extra weight doesn't matter if it's at home. And don't say you can't deep discharge them. You can run a deep cycle leisure battery completely flat 220 times and it only loses 20% capacity. Not like the old car batteries where a few times and it was dead.

Better to go up in flames when you're not in it and travelling at speed.

Oh wait, they don't go at speed. Am I right in thinking 80mph is about the most you get from a non-sporty EV? My 21 year old Renault petrol car goes 120mph (albeit with a worrying smell and vibration).

Yip, what the f*ck was the point in that?

F****ng treehuggers.

No, you have yards with grass on them. You f***ed up the language good and proper.

S*it has many meanings, one is excrement, one is "not very good at all".

It's babyish.

Women are soft. I prefer the kind who say F*CK all the time.

No, it's pathetic.

Here in CA, AAA is 5 miles towing, AAA+ is 100 miles, AAA++ can go 200 miles.

5 miles are useless. When a charger go dead, next one is usually 20 to 30 miles away. Don't leave home without AAA+.

The V2L kit plug into the J1772 part of the charging port only, not the DC port. The AC wirings are limited to 20A to 30A.

They're usually the ones who think blacks should have equal rights. Maybe they're actually bleached blacks?

They need basic common sense to do their job. The current lot fail terribly. But it does mean they're easy to outsmart. I've got away with a lot of crime.

Like your claim you can spend hours in freezing water, claim to have a high IQ and a degree (was it in physics or micro-electronic?), this is another to add to your list of lies.

When was the last time you found an obliging lady? It has been suggested you're still a virgin.

I ate some cheese yesterday which tasted like white spirit. I assume it had fermented. Didn't do me any harm.

Some things, including snow, you cannot have too much of. Others are money and sex.

Trapped? You must have tiny petrol stations. There's room to move round each other here:

Ugh, treehuggermobile.

I have a 2002 Renault Scenic. 3 or 4 cylinders depending on it's mood. In 3 cylinder mode I think the petrol goes straight into the exhaust, because the miles per gallon plummets like hell. You'd think fuel injection would turn off the failed cylinder, but I guess French electrics ain't that clever. It does manage a warning light.

I will never ever buy a Tesla. You buy a Tesla which contains an AC unit, but you have to pay to have it switched on. Then you sell it to someone else, and they have to pay to have it switched on again? THEFT! The Tesla company are CROOKS!

Satnavs have loads of voices. Trouble is most are American, that grating pompous I know everything voice.

I just use Google Maps. Works perfectly. Before a smartphone I had a real Tomtom and it f***ed up all the time. Took me up farm roads with locked gates, told me to do a u turn on a dual carriageway where the central reservation had been closed off, it was terrible.

The Aussie accent is the best for telling you off. "Turn around! You're going the wrong way!"

Mine warns me if I'm over or near the limit when approaching one. I use the "Radarbot" app which tells me in a very posh English accent, "Warning! Possible mobile speed camera, limit fifty." You can tell it if it was there or not. The last time I passed a real one, it said there was definitely one there, because a previous driver had said so.

If it's average speed, I use the average speed on my car's dashboard. Which means getting stuck behind someone lets me floor it at 120mph to the next camera.
