She said the pretty much the exact same thing, when we spoke the weekend before last, that she will never go back to petrol, and regrets not having made the switch earlier (but she had been worried whether she would have found it difficult to adapt to the change).
Sounds good enough!
If they have charging at home it is much easier than going to buy petrol. Especially with some of the shortages I’ve been hearing about this week.
My better half first came up with the BEV idea a year ago. I didn't like the idea of having two cars. Also, there was no attractive offering on the market. Then the new Twingo was released and I said: this one! She hesitated, but we got such an excellent offer that we simply had to order one. Never had a test drive or even been inside of one... She needs to adjust to the new driving experience anyhow, we (I) need that second car, and there are still no other attractive offerings. Now we are waiting for the delivery in late June, early July...
Yes, they made sure (absolutely certain, in fact) that they had had charging at home installed before they made the switch to EVs. Now, their only regret is that they hadn't had it done ages ago.
I took almost the same path. My MBA was a decade old, its second battery just about shot (90-minute run time) and the trackpad would only click in the lower-right corner. Got an M1 MBP in 2021, and it's about due for its first battery replacement (hoping for at least 5 more years on it, also).
I have a front and rear dashcam in my car since some idiot with road rage got out of his car and assaulted me.
I hope you took him/her to court. Watching them grovel in front of a judge, surrounded by incriminating evidence should make you smile.
Nope. Before I had the dashcam. I was so shocked it happened I didn’t manage to get his number plate.
Well, regardless, I’m sorry it happened to you.
Thanks. It was years ago now. But still was a big shock on my way to work one morning.

Is the old one scrap?
Saturday February 28, 2026 my son and I moved that Rheem 80 gallon hybrid water heater into basement utility room, it’s 244 lbs .. a warranty replacement unit, replacing the 3 year old one that is installed ..
Well guess this 63 year old bod ain’t what used to be, I got a slight hernia by belly button as a result, a slight “outie” happens when make stomach muscle.
Saw doctor, no pain, no surgery.
I’m in good shape, lift at planet fitness 2x or 3x week, Mtb bike 3x week, learned my lesson here.
We used zero turn lawnmower with pull cart to move from driveway to basement French doors, about 150 feet, it was the last 30 feet manhandling it that bit me.
Of course afterwards I found my dolly in garage that would have helped ..
Will use that to remove old one.
Well take it easy. Combi boiler here so no water tank needed.
