just saw a 2012 SV with 78,000 miles, and 8 bars for $4,900. Seems in ok condition, silver with the cream interior, but otherwise nothing mechanically wrong.

For what it is, I didn't think it was a bad deal, but in these trying times it's hard to know what's a good deal or not.

Thoughts?

Edit: I totally forgot to mention that it does have some minor body damage on the front passenger fender and the bumper got a little scuffed. Still rides fine.

Edit2: I'm gonna pass on this one, partly because of the fender, partly because of the cream interior, partly because I live a little too far from this dealer, I'm not trading anything in, and the uber driver would probably be more than a little p

I've been using PayPal forever to pay for a lot of my small recurring fees. That way if I ever have to change CC #'s due to theft, loss, or whatever, I just have to change it in one place.

So now that I've moved finances over to SoFi, I got their MasterCard and thought, "OK, I'll use this to for PayPal". But then the "Fraud Alerts" started pouring in and payments were rejected, and calls to customer service went badly. They wouldn't even put my through to someone in the Fraud department.

I mean, I'm glad that the fraud department looking out for me to protect my account from unauthorized charges, but this is for my PayPal account. You've approved charges to it before, but now your system i

So have any of you driven the Blue Ridge Parkway in your Niro EV?

For those who don't know, the Blue Ridge Parkway (BRP) is a winding mountainous byway were cell service and GPS, yes GPS, are not reliable. Because of this, I'm looking for first hand accounts from those who endeavored this particular excursion in an EV.

The BRP starts in Afton VA and ends 469 miles later in Ravensford, NC, but you can drive it in either direction. It's a winding scenic route through the Great Smokey mountains that takes around 15 hours of straight-through driving, but most people stop along the way for site-seeing, hiking, fishing, camping, and such. Me personally, I plan to start in NC and make my way

Apparently this is a major selling point for a lot of new car buyers. It seems like Tesla is the gold standard, but are there any contenders?

Most EVSE's that boast solar capabilities tend to require being integrated into an existing home solar system. That's usually very complicated and expensive, and has the prerequisite of owning a professionally installed home solar system. Are there any that you can just directly hook up an array of solar panels to get a free ride from the sun?

I've been invited to go on a family reunion/vacation this fall, and I will have to drive over 700mi. in my Niro EV from Southwest Ohio to Edisto Island in South Carolina.

I could take the West Virginia route (has tolls), but I'm favoring the Kentucky/Tennessee route. Whichever way I go, there doesn't seem to be many DCFC points along either route, and I will have to deal with the hillier terrain of the Smokies. Will I make it OK?

Have you ever done any long distance traveling in your Niro? What's it like traveling longer distances in the Niro? Any surprises? I've got all summer to prepare for my trip, so is there anything I should know before I go?
