Yes, the math allows fudging when you consider personal driving habits, the city you live in, local costs for electricity and gas, etc, so it can...

Is it true that it qualifies for a tax credit? I've heard that you get a ~$2900 credit. That would make the math a little different. You could...
Yes to NPR. Starbucks is overpriced. I make my own coffee. I consider Starbucks a bizarre pop consumer phenomenon that just doesn't make sense 99%...
"Once for driver side, twice for all doors" is what I would expect. Both of my other cars (Subaru and Ford) unlock this way. I'm happy to see that...
It's available online here. It's not terribly funny (too much potty humor), but it's worth watching just to be aware of it. The overall message...
