Hybrid VS Plug in Hybrid.

You make the call.

Views: 27

Hybrid VS Plug in Hybrid. Some folks confuse the two with an all electric car. But the two hybrid’s still have gasoline Engines. And the EV does not. I leave out the EV because I think it’s time still hasn’t come. So below I used a Honda dealership that explains the difference.

Hybrid vs. Plug-in Hybrid: The Basics

You may be wondering: What’s the difference between hybrid and plug-in hybrid? We’ve listed the main differences between these vehicles below:

  • Standard hybrid vehicles rely on their gas engines to keep their batteries charged as you drive.
  • Standard hybrid vehicles use their gas and electric motors interchangeably to maximize your fuel efficiency.
  • Plug-in hybrids use a larger battery that is charged with a 120-volt or 240-volt outlet at your Tampa home. They also have a “backup” gas engine.
  • Plug-in hybrids use electric power until it’s depleted, then switch to the gas engine.

Hybrid vs. Plug-in Hybrid: Benefits of Standard Hybrid Vehicles

There are many benefits that come with making the switch to a hybrid vehicle over a conventional model. To begin, hybrid vehicles can maximize your fuel economy by switching between using their electric engine at lower speeds and the gas engine at higher speeds. Plus, traditional hybrid vehicles are an excellent option for Land O’ Lakes drivers who don’t want to rely on home charging. Since the gas engine charges the battery as you drive, you won’t need to stop and recharge the internal batteries to continue receiving high fuel economy ratings.

Hybrid vs. Plug-in Hybrid: Benefits of Plug-In Hybrid Models

Plug-in hybrid models also work with a gas engine and an electric motor, but the way that energy is distributed is different compared to standard hybrid models. A plug-in hybrid will primarily run on its electric motor until it’s depleted, then the gasoline engine will take over.

Rather than having two engines working simultaneously, plug-in hybrid vehicles use the gasoline engine as a “backup” for when the electric engine is out of charge. The distance traveled while operating solely on the battery is known as the vehicle’s electric range. However, once that limit is reached, you’ll need to plug your car in to regain battery power.

Since you can pre-charge your vehicle, many plug-in hybrid cars offer the range you need to run errands around town or take your commute on pure battery power, allowing you to save gas for longer trips.

Yes, Virginia the former President is entitled to the DOJ documents. Smith’s team is arguing that the information requested wouldn’t help the defense team and it’s only a fishing expedition. I ask, how would the prosecution know what the defense team needs? We have this from NTD.

As part of these efforts, defense counsel has requested great amounts of material from the prosecution, arguing that, by law, prosecutors must turn over any potentially exculpatory evidence to the criminal defendant. In recent court filings, the defense submitted email exchanges in arguing that the Department of Justice has refused multiple requests for evidence.

Thus, documents belonging to the FBI, U.S. Attorney’s office, DOJ, the special counsel’s office at large, the Department of Defense, the Department of Homeland Security, and Congressional committees are not discoverable, they argued.

Whistleblowers vindicated. What was the most damaging revelation?

Follow the trail to Joe Biden.

Views: 11

Whistleblowers vindicated. What was the most damaging revelation? Remember when the clown Congressman Raskin said that he believed Hunter and the whistleblowers were disgruntled Republicans( or something along those lines)? The Washington Examinar. 

Now Hunter Biden has been indicted on tax charges, and the indictment is a complete vindication of the IRS whistleblowers. The indictment largely follows the lines that Shapley and Ziegler set out. It says Hunter Biden avoided paying at least $1.4 million in taxes he owed from 2016 to 2019, when he was receiving large amounts of money from Ukraine, Romania, and China. The indictment alleges that Biden “subverted the payroll and tax withholding process” of his company and then withdrew millions from the company without paying taxes on it.

Well these indictments are just the tip of the Iceberg. What I found most revealing is that they also saw the trail was leading to Joe Biden. The higher ups stopped the investigation into Biden.

In closing, again from the Examinar.

Capitol Hill Democrats sought to dismiss the whistleblowers’ allegations. Investigators are often gung-ho, they said, while Justice Department prosecutors have to measure carefully whether a criminal case is warranted. And in this case, Democrats maintained, no charges were warranted against Hunter Biden.

Fan club greets Joe in L A.

Fan club greets Joe in L A. Flying on two seperate planes, Biden and his wife flew out to LA to pick pocket the Hollywood elite for money for the 2024 Presidential election. But his Progressive fans showed up and let me tell you that they weren’t happy. This from the OC Register.

Meanwhile, throngs of pro-Palestinian protesters gathered not far away to challenge the U.S. government’s support of Israel amid the Jewish state’s ongoing war against Hamas in Gaza. By mid-afternoon, law enforcement had cordoned off a large portion of the park’s open space – restricting access to the side of the street where Biden’s event was expected to get underway – long before the majority of protesters arrived.

As the crowd grew in size, so did tensions – as protesters pounded on cars and blocked some of the roads that led to the site of the Biden fundraiser, chanting “No more genocide” among other things.

CDC director issues false alarm. Mask up. Yes, my friends mask up or you’re going to get sick or die. At least that’s what the CDC DIRECTOR IS SPEWING. But here’s what’s on the CDC website.

At this time, there is no evidence that JN.1 presents an increased risk to public health relative to other currently circulating variants, and CDC is closely monitoring COVID-19 activity and JN.1 spread. The increase of this variant does not alter  CDC’s

 COVID-19 recommendations

Mandy Cohen advised people to wear masks.

“And use additional layers of protection like avoiding people who are sick. Washing your hands, improving ventilation, and wearing a mask,” she said.

Good News, 199,000 New Jobs. Bad News, Net household wealth fell by about $1.3 trillion.

Land rich, money poor.

Good News, 199,000 New Jobs. Bad News, Net household wealth fell by about $1.3 trillion. Also, we saw Household debt rose 2.5%. Why then are we not in great shape? Inflation is still an ugly creature that hurts us all. Look what’s happened since January of 2021.

To get a more accurate sense of how prices have risen, CNBC looked at consumer price index data since April 2021 to see how much more Americans are actually paying for everyday items.

In that time, the cost of essentials like groceries, utilities and gas increased by 20% or more. The cost of all items on the index increased by 13% in that time.

The value of holdings of real estate increased $500 billion, while equity values declined $1.7 trillion. This means that your real-estate is more valuable, but stocks and your other valuables have decreased.

What a joke. Solar battery power that lasts four hours. 118 million of our tax dollars were spent to build a battery storage plant that can supply 65,000 homes with energy for four hours.

The state has 6,617 megawatts of storage capacity.They say the state will need 52,000 megawatts of storage capacity to meet its goal of running entirely on clean energy by 2045. And this storage unit is 68.8 mega watts of power, at a cost of 118 million.

Tim Mann shows off some of the more-than 15,000 batteries that make up the new Stanton Battery Energy Storage plant in Stanton, CA, on Wednesday, December 6, 2023

No more Gaza

Views: 56

How to fix the Israel Hamas mess. No more Gaza and make the West Bank a Jordan state. I’m sorry but Gaza must be no more. Also make the West Bank a state ruled by Jordan or allow Jordan to annex it. Give the arabs in Gaza a choice. Stay under Jewish rule, move to the West Bank, or go to another Arab country.

Kissinger had it half right when he said that Jordan should rule the West Bank. And the new of the Netherlands felt that Jordan was Palestine.
