    Going to have to wait until we return to NC to rent or test drive the Kona... It's not available for sale (yet?) in green green WA State 🤬. I'd have to go to Oregon to find one! Hope it's available in NC!

    I think it's 2 years free charging, but they do give a complimentary level 2 setup, and $600 towards installation. I'm checking to see if Hyundai dealerships are charging opportunities, also. I'll let you know if I find one to rent!

    Thanks! Been watching lots and lots of YouTube - now just need to get the physical vehicle in my hands on the road to see if it's a fit for me. The advertised range is fine for us . We're old, and about the only time we would exceed it would be our drive from NC to Ohio and back twice a year...

    Not sure what makes her sound like a "sensitive person who likes her toys"... From where I sit, as someone who's done a lot of research over the past year, she sounds like someone who has her facts straight and made a choice that works for her, is better for the environment (yes, even with the...

    That's a thought... What company did you rent from?

    Interested in the '24 Kona, if I can ever find a dealer close enough with one on the lot that I can test drive...

    Not asking, just making a point.

    Wait - your Flow came with 4" tires?! Mine didn't - I would never have bought it had that been the case! Sorry you had problems with yours - mine has been FABulous, and I love it 😁.

    Madeline Miller fan here - "Circe" and "Galatea" were also excellent!

    Ear Warmers

    It would be a GREEK pastry... Which I definitely wouldn't recommend wearing on your head 🤣. Extremely tangentially...My PM's mother's family is Greek, and, to attempt to carry on the cultural culinary traditions, I used to make Baklava at Christmastime. That my children called it "swearing and...

    Wrist Mirror

    I used one for several years, but eventually went to a handlebar mirror.

    The transition

    I believe China already has super cheap EVs?

    That thought has also occurred to me... What a bunch of total and complete a**holes.

    The transition

    Infrastructure is being built - perhaps not as fast as we'd like, but there are more and more chargers coming online every day. It won't always be like it is today 😁. I'll probably have an EV within the next year - most of my needs can be addressed with charging at home, and there are more...

    The transition

    There are 2 fast chargers in the parking garage at my gym in NC. Sometimes people in ICE vehicles use them for parking spaces, but the security guards kick them out.

    The transition

    Renting an ICE vehicle for road trips is an idea I've proposed to several friends worried about range for occasional long trips. As for excess inventory, I've been looking for weeks in the Piedmont Triad for the 24 (or even a 23!) Kona EV - there's nary a one to be found! SOMEbody is buying them...

    But, if I ditched my smart phone, I'd be stuck back in the spare bedroom on the laptop every time I wanted to check in with EBR 🤣🤣🤣! No, thanks...

    It says 2, but I have 3. DL, ID, one credit card. I also use evil Google Pay, so do most out and about stuff in my phone. The credit card in the holder is just for the rate occasion when I need a physical card. It's available for lots of Apple phones, a few more recent Android. Here's the link...
