Also running for mayor is Cody Smith, a senior vice president at the First State Bank of Uvalde. Smith previously held the post and was mayor from 2008 to 2012. Prior to being mayor, he was a member of the city council elected in 1995 and served for 12 years.
“I would come to the position with some experience,” said Smith, “[…] and then I just want to do anything I can to help this community, you know, heal and, you know, and prosper.”.
Uh you know, stuff and, uh, and things. Not for money or anything.
his first initiative would be building a committee consisting of city, county and school district members to work towards a permanent memorial to honor the lives lost at Robb Elementary.
Years ago I bought an Infiniti truck that advertised 18 mpg. After owning and driving it I only got 9 mpg.
I wish the government would crack down harder on this sort of blatant misleading “advertising” so gas or electric, we’d have a better idea of what we’re purchasing.
Yes but I can usually walk to a gas station, buy a gas can, fill it up, walk back to my car, pour gasoline in the tank and then drive away.
What am I supposed to do if I own a Tesla? Walk to the nearest Lowe’s, purchase a multi fuel generator, attach it to my car, then walk to the gas station, buy a gas can, fill it up, walk back to the car, fill up the generator, crank the generator, hook it up to my car, then drive away?
This is decades-old hypothetical that just doesn’t happen in the real world unless the driver is an idiot. Never in the quarter century of driving gas vehicles did I ever run out of gas.
Likewise you don’t just suddenly run out of charge in an EV. In Teslas you get automatically routed to superchargers, and if somehow you’re too far away from the nearest one, you get miles and miles of warnings about having an insufficient charge to reach it if you, I dunno, somehow camped for days with the A/C on in the middle of nowhere.
In that catastrophic event, you stop literally anywhere with any AC outlet, you plug in your mobile charger, and wait less time than it’d take to hike to a gas station to charge enough to make it to a DC fast charger. Or better yet, someone tow-charges you through regenerative braking for a couple miles and you end up with more than enough to make it to a supercharger.
The article is about total range advertised vs. real world range, and you can go literally anywhere in the lower 48 and be in easy range of a DC fast charger, let alone a 120v outlet.
All of them ... or at least most of them. The numbers given are based on limited variables and almost never include qualifiers like proper tire pressure must be maintained, easy acceleration vs flooring it, usage of AC, etc etc ... which all affect fuel consumption rates.
It was a QX56 before they renamed it, but like that other guy said, it’s pretty much all of them as the car manufacturers are incentivized to give you the absolute best case usage scenarios for everything, and then slap that on a sticker as if it’s real world data.
A mother who ran into Robb Elementary School to rescue her two children during a mass shooting in Uvalde, Texas, last week says police threatened to violate her probation for speaking about the incident to reporters.
I’m not too invested in this so I could be wrong but wasn’t there a news story just recently that like 3 people set to testify against him died mysteriously or something?
O’Connor told them they should call her accountant before they call 911.
“See, when the artists are dead, they’re much more valuable than when they’re alive. Tupac has released way more albums since he died than he ever did alive, so it’s kind of gross what record companies do,” she told PEOPLE at the time.
O’Connor continued, “That’s why I’ve always instructed my children since they were very small, ‘If your mother drops dead tomorrow, before you called 911, call my accountant and make sure the record companies don’t start releasing my records and not telling you where the money is.’”
