I sometimes wonder how I survived those times. It all seems like a million years ago.
Our local Woodstock NY station 101.1fm still has a painted VW Beatle out front of the station headquarter. Their station is in a renovated church.

I was driving behind a Rivian truck yesterday. I had never heard of that brand. It seems very risky to buy a new brand of EV. Even the big-name car makers are having trouble selling their EVs

My next vehicle will be hybrid because EVs are still developing. Sodium batteries may be better, faster charging and more miles. Mercedes is banking on Hydrogen.

I don't set limits. I process my images to look like I want them to look; or as close as I can get to what I was shooting for.
AGREE !

I added Affinity when it was first free. It's 95% PS, but still quite a learning curve.

Mercedes and Audi have dome that extra charge for metalic paints for decades.
So I buy "Certified Pre-owned" cars from the dealer. They come with sunroofs, metalic paint, leather seats...etc and a discount for its first 3000 miles by the sales staff....+ extra miles on the warranty.
Last time I bought a NEW car was a 1972 Volvo 142E.

Back in 1980 in Montreal Canada, at this same time, mid January it would go down to -40. Thats the same either degr's F or C. The dry snow is crunchy under your feet. That weekend, I'm not sure why, but we decided to go south to Plattsburg NY. 50 miles before the US boarder my MB diesel started to sputter, we decided to go back home...if our diesel dies on us as the fuel was beginning to gel, we could die frozen in the car. There are few homes along that stretch of rte#A15 highway This road becomes NY #87.
I do NOT miss that cold !
