Electric car and solar pannel. 🍿🍿🍿
That’s nice, what car?
Mitsubishi i-MiEV/Peugeot Ion/Citroen C0 (same car, different branding). This car is awesome. Cheap, can park anywhere, nervous at the start, and surprisingly spacious for its tiny size. I already carried wooden planks of 2.4m (7.8 ft) inside. Too bad it is not produced anymore 😢
I don’t need to compensate with RAM or Dodge truck. The Peugeot is spacious enough to fit my two huge balls inside it.
I’m shopping for an EV, the market is so anemic there’s essentially only 1 model from 1 brand that’s not a humongous child killer.
How about the Hyundai?
The ionic? It feels overly long. I’d much rather have a sporty hatchback.
Hyundai is about to release an ioniq 3, maybe it will be smaller
One can hope
Free as usual, I siphon it out of public school buses in low socioeconomic areas like Ronald Regan intended
I tried that, but I froze my lips because the school buses nearby run on LPG.
Thanks to trump;
Northeast US, ~$2.70 3 days ago, ~$3.10 today and I expect it to continue to rise.

Edit: $3.19. Up 9¢ in 4 hours.
Your lucky. I haven’t seen prices like that in years. We’re around $5 in the northwest us
Ouch. Hate to say it but it’s gonna get a lot worse. One crude price just broke $100/barrel. It was $90 3 days ago.
Sounds like Seattle
I’m in northeast and just drove around from VT to ri yesterday. In mass gas was 3.30 gal, ri was similar +/- 10 cents depending on station. VT seems closer to 3.10 or so. Thank God the warm weather is coming so I can put the damn car away and ride my single cylinder motorcycle that gets 75mpg if I am easy with my right wrist… Also very glad I sold my SUV last year and got a little Impreza cuz that alone has saved me a couple hundred a month during the snow season where I have no choice but to roll in the cage.
I paid $3.50 today
im hoping for $10, fuck Cars. It’s not like this same shit hasn’t happened before and the same thing repeats, had decades to navigate the changes needed and just ignored it… Insanity
My dream? an 80% reduction in private cars, and the rise of e bikes and e scoots, medium density housing, and more tree cover; quieter, friendlier, less deadly cities, you know 15 minute cities.
had decades to navigate the changes needed and just ignored it… Insanity
it is insanity, but not for the lack of navigation; it was about preventing china from gaining economic leverage with affordable electric vehicles and scalable renewable technologies.
That makes no sense lmao
it makes perfect sense
It doesn’t. If it was really a concern it’d be better to beat them to the technology
yes, it would be better, but we didn’t because we lack the industrial capacity to provide both at scale and affordably so. so instead we just doubled down on fossil fuels and carved out legal corporate & governmental protections for harming people that we predict will get fucked over by climate change.
But that’s just handing China the advantage without a fight, it doesn’t slow them down at all. That’s why it makes no sense.
we slowed them down by using super high tariffs on electric vehicles and solar panels and it makes sense from a geopolitical perspective. the united states & europe uses its economic leverage to control the world and letting people buy chinese electric vehicles, solar panels, etc. would give the chinese this same type of leverage.
trump, biden, obama, both bushes, etc. consider china to be the enemy, so forcing people to stay dependent on fossil fuels instead of green energy is a way of making sure that the united states stays in control; the same is true for europe.
that’s also why we regime changed venezuela, libya, iran, etc. because they started selling oil using other currencies besides the american dollar and that would make the united states lose some of this leverage too.
Like $0.13 per KWh at home, minus whatever the panels generate. Probably not going up since it’s all hydro anyway
Alberta checking in. Jumped from $1.31/L to $1.52 overnight. (That’s about $3.65 and $4.25/gal USD.)
Ouch. Thanks for the conversion.
Northern Netherlands, somwhere around 2,20 for E10 Euro 95, 2,30 for diesel. Diesel is not usually more expensive than petrol.

Italy, between 1,65 and 1,85 for gas and 1,80 to 2,00 for diesel (liter).
Netherlands, Amsterdam: around 2.62 eur / litre (for US readers that is around 13.75 usd per gallon). It’s a ~25% hike in the last couple of days
*cries in dutch
Thanks Donald!
Topped up diesel @ AU$1.69 / L last Tuesday. It is now AU$2.19 / L. This is in Sydney, Australia.
It’s around 2.20 per litre here.
$5.19 at the cheapest near me in Los Angeles, 3/8. Just a week ago it was around $4.29, but of course I procrastinated filling up my hybrid since I still had a quarter of a tank left… Sigh.
Oh, just the regular $11.50 or so.
That’s a guess though.
I saw 2,30 € per liter at my local gas station
and I just multiply by five for all the Usonians out there.It’ll likely hit somewhere between $25 to $100 by July.
great here in Chicago, at least for bicycle commuters
