So, this page alone prints out to 16 pages, and with all of those Amazon deliveries, one more'll be easy to slip in.....

BTW, are you sure you want to get rid of having a rear window that opens in the middle of the cab? You know that with a sedan or hatchback, it's all just going to get trap back there like a big old time-bomb bubble...
:idea: Sunroof! 😜

I drive about the same mileage and have seriously considering a new Camry Hybrid. I'm not as down on EVs as I once was but I'd still like to see a little longer range because we do plan on traveling more now that we're settled in. I'm still looking and will probably go down one day and test drive a model 3 so I can compare it to the Camry Hybrid. Even though that's comparing apples & oranges I've never driven an EV and would like to get the full 411 on them. I know they use to offer free charging on their charges and not sure if they still do but that could be a game changer (from the hybrid) right there if they do. I'd probably still keep my Ranger for a few more years but I'm having less and less use for a truck now and have been driving one for over 30+ years and a comfortable car would be nice now. I really want ventilated seats!
The technology is seamless. I had a Ford C-Max for a loaner one time while my Flex was in the shop. That vehicle was a PHEV, but went back and forth from ICE to full BEV seamlessly. Homely car but fun to challenge myself to stay in battery for as long as possible.

This is exactly me when driving my wife's hybrid.

I put the "Energy Transfer" display up and try to keep it on battery as much as possible.

When the engine does kick on, you almost wouldn't be able to tell it without the display suddenly showing power routed from the front.

Hers is AWD, but based on the gauge it appears that the FWD portion is all gas engine while the RWD portion is all electric.

Yeah, I’m liking that black Ranger way better.

What the heck is that thing creeping up behind you?
