But the LEAF is a great car :)

They’re especially great at depreciating: https://insideevs.com/news/715992/save-used-evs-price-differ...

Second only to the MB EQS. Down almost half in 12 months. This is why EVs are lease-only vehicles right now IMO.

I agree... I also think that for people with specific use cases, the rapid depreciation means that there are great deals available for used LEAFs. I wouldn't buy one new now.

Back when the Leaf was eligible for the $7,500 federal rebate, that accounted for a pretty big chunk of the depreciation for the lower trims. MSRP was in the $28,500 neighborhood. Minus $7,500, leaves you at $21,000. Or 26% hit the day you drive it off the lot.

Out of curiosity, could you describe the data set here?

> I have no idea about the 10% factor

As a single data point in California, the factor for my solar installation was 15.4% for the last twelve months, so your guess seems pretty reasonable

I know you're being funny, but I don't understand the joke: why does brown culture avoid Korean cars?

Prestige consciousness.

Thanks for the explanation

While there is an effort to make this so, it does not yet appear to be law: https://www.calbike.org/bicycle-safety-stop-faqs/

What features are you looking for in a Mapbox alternative? Tiles? Geocoding? Anything else?

Nothing special really, I just like competition

Might take a while before anyone can get it at $35k: "The GM brand will begin Equinox EV production with two higher priced trims, a front-wheel-drive RS model that starts at $48,995 and an all-wheel-drive variant at $52,395"

Other details: 319-mile range, "early 2024"

I'll believe it when I see it - every manufacturer has recently warned about excess EV inventory, so they're almost certainly not gonna go out their way to get the lowest margin version out

Plus $199 for Nitrogen filled tires plus $1999 protection package plus $499 for VIN etching plus...

Sounds like an interesting story that I'm curious about... how did putting a strong magnet in the ground help you install your main water line?

I had the main rupture under my floor which is a concrete slab. so Instead of breaking the concrete I routed a new line from the outside directly to the back of my bathroom wall, where there was a small space behind the shower to access the plumbing. Luckily there was no concrete underneath the bathroom tub so I made a hole with a power washer and a very long extension wand for it, directly vertical. In this hole I put the strong neodymium magnet. Now from the outside I was able to locate exactly where my other hole was with my app. This way I was able to install a new main into my house with no damage to my structure.

Neat! Thanks for sharing!
