This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

Yup. As a state certified bygdetulling I live in the middle of bumfuck, and I could in theory get by with an EV, but it'd be pretty impractical when I need to wheel down to Oslo on short notice (which happens pretty frequently). So I went for a PHEV instead. 7h drive, and I prefer that over a 50min flight. I drive on electric power only when local, and I can run fueled for whenever I need to go longer.
