I went the other direction. Years ago I wanted a compact but high IQ camera for hiking and traveling and owned a few Panasonics (GF3, GF5, LX7, LX100). They were all good cameras but I was never satisfied with the image quality. I thought about getting something higher end like the GH or OM...

Too expensive to cover in bacon grease :LOL:

You forgot one huge reason why EVs are so popular in Norway: taxes Anyone who wants to buy a new ICE car in Norway has to pay 25% VAT on top of the purchase price PLUS an additional pollution tax that is calculated based on vehicle weight, engine size, NOx and CO2 emissions. This can easily...

I took a trip to Patagonia a few years ago and loved it, the landscape is awesome. Other than the logistics, one thing that would give me pause about doing a motorcycle only trip is the weather. Its always windy there, so much so that the bushes that grow on the steppe grow at an angle. Add to...

Wheel spacers work but make sure you use hub centric and not lug centric. My 2002 XLS came with stock wheels and had a lot of vibration at highway speeds; It turns out that there were lug centric aluminum spacers installed. I replaced the stock wheels with 17 in 4Runner take-offs and the...

I never used FB groups until I got a Montero and its definitely the most active place but man the interface is so bad. Slow, glitchy, hard to search and not really laid out well for conversation. Forums like this are so much better but there just isnt the userbase.

He could be right but its in Toyotas best interest to say that because they havent been in the EV market.

You seem to be trying to explain how videos are made which isnt what I asked.

This! So many people don't understand the difference. In the US you don't have a right unless Congress and 9 unelected judges, or a group of 18th century landowners said you do. In a direct democracy like Switzerland the people vote directly for referendums to amend the constitution.

Hence my point that the "free" market is a myth.

Tesla only survived because of massive government subsidy. Not unlike just like nuclear power and space exploration. Despite all the talk about free-market ingenuity very few businesses are willing to take the risk of real innovation without some type of government backstop. Unfortunately the...

I feel like this is AI making fun of overlanders

The thing is the US isnt not a free-market. The auto industry is subsidized in many ways from the state laws protecting the dealer system, to federal protectionist laws to keep imports from competing with American brands, to the subsidies that support the oil industry and keep the cost of...

SolarCity was bought(bailed) out by Tesla in 2016 and officially became part of the Tesla brand but before that they were already known as Tesla's solar company. Elon was on the board and the company was founded by his cousins.

Interesting, had no idea this was a thing.

Which size is it?

Thats cool. I was curious who it was.

Painting a car all black is a great way to hide the way it looks. :ROFLMAO:

"Why is your used van priced above a new one?" is a legitimate question.
