<>I saw a 1988 Accord on I-35 last week. I bet that thing has over 500k miles on it. Honda and Toyota made (make) cars to just work. They don't have the latest gadgets but they run.. FOREVER. The only cars we buy in this house are Toyotas (I've thought about picking up a Tesla)
When last shopping, I ran across a Guy who lived in New Orleans & had to go to Houston twice a month for his work.
His midsize Tesla could make it to Beaumont if weather were cool, w/ little A/C use; but if hot & he had to really run A/C, it petered-out about Lake Charles.
It then took a couple hours to get a ‘’partial re-charge’’, which may or may not get him to his Houston hotel, where it was plugged-in overnight.
He said no way he could run the resistance heater.
