Wrote this over the weekend: I was really worried when my parents showed up with a new Ioniq 6 lease in the middle of rural North Carolina. There arenโ€™t many charging stations, and this was now their only car. Turns out, my worrying was for nothing. They love it. insideevs.com/features/803...

I Was Worried When My Parents Went Full EV, But They Proved Me Wrong

Even if youโ€™re in your 70s and in Rural North Carolina, itโ€™s not hard to live a full EV lifestyle.

We live in capitalism. Its power seems inescapable. So did the divine right of kings. Any human power can be resisted and changed by human beings. Resistance and change often begin in art, and very often in our art, the art of words.

It is far too easy for those in a position of privilege to judge the actions of others through the lens of that privilege, supporting laws and rules the protect it while vilifying those who don't have it. Honor is not to blindly follow rules, but to see them for what they are, and who they benefit.

The rabbit hole goes deep, baby. Have I read the 1987 VW Vanagon owners manual and Camper supplement? Have I also discovered that you can basically build a new one from all the parts available online? Yes and yes. I love soaking up new information. ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜

And now I'm going down rabbit holes learning all about Vanagon Westfalias. There is a *huge* aftermarket for these things, isn't there?
