Dom's finally getting a new EV!

Tom sold his Model 3, I believe, . . .

He should be able to rent one from Hertz. <GRINS>

How many times have we read absurd suggestions that other people should 'rent' another vehicle?

I was hoping Dom would get a Bolt or other non-Tesla EV since Teslas are so boring in terms of content provision (not saying they are bad cars but they are so common compared to any other EVs out there).

This InsideEVs article about the recent JD Power survey of electric car owners indicates electric Chevy owners aren't very happy with their cars, compared with owners of other mass-market electric cars. I was happy to see my MINI Cooper SE ranked #1, despite it's meager EV range. However, if we're really talking "mass-market" EVs, Chevy is way ahead of MINI in sales.

I have to imagine thet battery recall was an ordeal for a lot of Bolt EV owners and affects the overall sentiment. Mini Cooper SE, I think (and you would know better than I), has been pretty solid all around. No big recalls, no frequent glitching or other software complaints. Gives me a lot of hope for the next-gen Mini.

Here's the sequel to my first video. It's basically documenting my trip home.
