  • Hint: Use a descriptive title for your new message
    If you're looking for help and want to draw people in who can assist you, use a descriptive subject title when posting your message. In other words, "I need help with my car" could be about anything and can easily be overlooked by people who can help. However, "I need help with my transmission" will draw interest from people who can help with a transmission specific issue. Be as descriptive as you can. Please also post in the appropriate forum. The "Lounge" is for introducing yourself. If you need help with your G70, please post in the G70 section - and so on... This message can be closed by clicking the X in the top right corner.

Hertz says goodbye to 20,000 EVs

What doesn’t make sense to me is having to rent an ICE vehicle from Hertz anytime I have to venture out of my bubble, just to compensate for the shortcomings of an EV.
A couple thoughts in response:

I‘m saving ~$1500/yr in fuel costs. That easily covers the cost/hassle if I would need to rent something for a few days a year.

I’m not sure how common @steveinarizona ’s desire/need to rent for his trip is. It could just be a function of charging availability where he is going and/or his own level of comfort.
I took a number of road trips in my GV60 soon after receiving it - a couple to some pretty remote places - and managed fine. Going off The beaten path is certainly not a care-free experience right now, as it requires a fair bit of planning, and potentially having back ups In place. It isn’t for everyone, but is manageable in many cases.
