It's actually not bad and it's intuitive, unlike some other examples out there. Twist forward to go forward, backward to go backward and press in to park. Hard to inadvertently do the wrong thing with it and it frees up space in the center console. Thanks for posting and for watching!

I truly would love this over the sprinter. It’s the part where I drive around small towns and making it a personal one too. The height and small size is great for keeping this in a garage or in the parking lot of apartments. And it costs about $10,000 less than the sprinter van I’m looking at. But that one does have a diesel engine which is very good to have in the long run.

I kinda feel bad for jaguar… when the f type first came out I felt like jaguar was at the top of their game. Their line up was so modern and offered competitive luxury for less money than their competitors. Kinda like genesis does today. But they just never updated their cars enough and I think they were too little too late with an suv… idk what happened?
@AutoAcademics17 күн бұрын
I agree and think that's the challenge for "smaller" brands. Jaguar had renewed all of their vehicles in a short timespan, but then had to live with them and a rapidly changing tech landscape. But even for the age of the F-Type, it's still a wonderful driving luxury performance car. Thanks for sharing and for watching!

@AutoAcademics18 күн бұрын
This Bolt should have enough range for your uses, but you'd need somewhere that you can recharge it quickly once you get home so that it is fully charged again for the next day. A Level 2 charger should be able to handle that. However, if you end up driving more than your expected 100 mi/day average, you may begin to reach the limits of the range that you have available. Hope this helps a bit and thanks for the watching!
