  1. Interesting video from Mobile Mama for Slate.

    Very fun. Bummer that the current administration is set to scrap the EV incentive though, along with the charging station investments started under the prior administration. Hope it isn’t fatal to Slate. We should be willing to invest in American manufacturing; that’s how BYD has eclipsed Tesler.

  3. Autosteer and Adaptive Cruise Control

    Which Volvo did you get? Been considering a XC-60 or used V-70.

    My 2015 Wrangler had manual mirrors; I was the sole driver and I found it to be a non-issue.
