But the bolt ev is a hatchback. The bolt EUV which is a small crossover is 3700lb, so comparing it to mid and large size crossovers is unfair to them, as they have more cargo and passenger room.

The CX3 weighs 3000lb, the Crosstrek is 3300lb, Honda HRV is 3200, the Taos is 3200lb, the Corolla cross is 3200lb, etc.

In the category of mid/large crossovers, a Model Y is 4200lb, an ID4 is 4500lb, and ioniq 5 is roughly 4200lb, an ev6 is 4200lb etc. and most of these go way higher too with long range options.

Ohhh that makes sense.

I up voted you because the weights aren't that drastically different rn, but a Chevy Bolt is 3500lb while a larger civic with more cargo and passenger room is 3000.

Wouldn't CAFE standards push them to smaller more efficient cars, or am I misunderstanding what CAFE standards are?

As for affordable cars, I think it's fairly easy for the auto industry to just raise prices while extending financing terms longer and longer and advertise $299/mo (with 180 mo financing, $6k down, at 8% interest excluding taxes and fees).

I can't imagine the difficulty of resolving this, especially since most of the AI models are available for free use.

A) Any of the wholesale clubs will sell big bags or cheap good quality coffee.

B) Most grocery stores will sell small bags of good cheap coffee.

I do whichever of the above is easiest for me based on where I need groceries.

To be fair, free camping trips with the homies, doing "games of skill" against other groups of campers, getting to use high tech machinery for free, and getting paid for it while you're at it? It does sound like a ton of fun minus the whole dying/killing part. 😂

Plus the filibuster requires 2/3, not a simple majority to get anything done.

Don't hate yourself for it! It's so difficult, and muscle memory can be a real pain! Best of luck.

People will recommend this brand, or that brand, but I haven't heard any consistently good stories about any of them like I did with EVGA.

My brother had an MSI AMD card and got denied an RMA because the HDMI port was supposedly burned out, which makes no sense to me. They sent a picture to us, and to me it looked like someone jammed a soldering iron in there or something. 🤷‍♂️

Yeah, I think Skyrim was good, and I liked Fallout 3/New Vegas, but nothing has majorly changed since those two games other than the graphics. I watched my friend play Starfield and realized that in my opinion, it was just more of the same with a space skin.

I think games can be bad because of the employees not making good games, but for reasonable circumstances. If the employees are making bad products, and management is actually decent, it would be because they're demotivated and demoralized from poor pay, benefits, and working conditions.
