No matter the form factor, the receptacle should be a FRU. So if Porsche made the decision to switch to NACS it would just be a design on a new receptacle that fits in the existing CCS space. Since NACS is smaller than CCS it should be doable. Yes, I’m oversimplifying but you get my drift...

What do you think?

Well, I was kinda half-serious because I mean come on with the damn thing already. But yes I know that gaffer’s tape & such are the livery of teh mules.

Well, I’m hoping it’s “MY 2025” meaning we should be able to order it in mid-late 2024, vs only getting allocations in 2025.

Was really hoping that it was farther along than being held together by gaffer’s tape by now.

The electric Boxster’s supposed to be a MY 2025. This article talks about unveiling a “vision” and I certainly hope that they’re past the “vision” phase for the e718 at this point.

Racing Yellow is my kind of outrageous. :)

Will need to reconfigure the EVSE setup in that garage bay as I was planning on it having Taycan-esque L & R charging ports. But, I think I actually like the location shown better anyway

Too late…you’re already getting out of a Porsche Taycan, so…

Less sites, more 718 BEV’s NOW!!

Still trying to come to terms with the “disappearing hands” on my DSOTM Apollo 8. I love the watch so I will likely never unload it. Maybe after the warranty is over I’ll take a page out of Dee’s book & get a watchmaker to swap out the hands for ones with more contrast.

I have zero regrets seeing Event Horizon II (M3) in the rear view mirror as I was driving off from the Porsche dealer in Event Horizon III.

In terms of a “car”, no. But I have deposits on Rivian RT1, Ford F-150 Lightning & CyberTruck to replace my Tundra. ?

Way back in the mid ‘10s, I lived in NC and got to participate in a 2-year LEAF EV study. We were able to lease the LEAF for a stupid $150/month in exchange for letting the research company install a telematics box in the car. Also came with a free L2 EVSE install in my garage. Unreal! Anyway...

Just like there are 12 types of Cylons, there are five levels of autonomous driving. To me, the term “Full Self Driving” implies capabilities up to Level 5. Tesla says their current cars already have the hardware to do this. I believe getting past Level 2 will require Smart roadways that...

Unfortunately I wear a Swiss chrono on my left & a watch-looking Garmin Vivoactive 4S on my right because I can’t find a fitness “band” with the same 24/7 monitoring functions.

Indeed, an IWC Ingeniuer Chronograph Sport has been on my wishlist for quite some time, though I doubt I’ll ever find one priced that I’m willing to shell out for.

Is there a Swiss brand behind the PD watches, and/or do they use well-known movements? Not trying to be snobbish, just curious. :)

No.
