Thread: A question of ethics around EV use

It doesn't have the engine management system, just the 6.2 litre LS3 and a 6 speed manual. It averages 22 mpg (13 litres per 100 k's) and open road cruising in 6th gear is 105 kph @ 1500 rpm.

Best thing about that is the ram raider kids won't be able to flog it - not stomp and go (3rd pedal that you need to know what you're doing to make it go!).

Indirectly EV also stands for 'Either Vegan'..........cough, cough.....

Rapid charge station. And if there isn't one close enough to drive too, then you have a useless car.
Personally I'd get one of those emergency radios that you wind to charge, pop a couple wires out back with alligator clips, and next time someone wants to charge there car, hand it to them and say " be my guest"

Had dinner last night with some friends. He has just taken delivery of a limited edition RHD C8 Corvette, certainly looks the biz but far from cheap.. Reckons he'll put it up against my AMG when it's run in
