Pick the sport that balance out when you eat what you want.

Sales in North America are predicted to be down this year and deaths here were down last year by 1%. But some states were up, like Texas at 7%.

Puting the time line in a personal perspective...

What am I looking at there?

How does the temp factor in?

Idk what this is.

The black line is the historical record of temperature and the colored section is predicted. They have an interactive site where you can plug in dates of significant things in your life to see how you relate to the change in climate.

I think I overthunk something somewhere.

Thank you.

Angle of trajectory vs distance, obviously for the same everything else.

For the last 10 years the electric consumption hasn't gone up much.

I learned something new today. I already knew the creation of the SUV and minivan models in the 80s was in response to the fleet fuel efficiency (CAFE) requirements implemented by the Feds. Those models were exempt from the fuel efficiency requirements because they were classified as trucks, not passenger cars. I assumed the crossover vehicles were also considered trucks. But I just looked it up and found I was wrong. The crossover vehicles are considered passenger cars, and must meet the fuel efficiency requirements. So I have no idea why they are so popular other than people just like them.

Wikipedia CAFE sub-entry on SUVs and Minivans.

People need minivans, but don't want to have minivans.

xoxoxoBruce · 03-14-2018, 10:30 AM

Exactly, minivans replaced the station wagon because the were so practical but they soon acquired the "soccer-mom" stigma becoming uncool. So people bought SUVs to be cool, but they were not as convenient or comfortable so the crossovers were created.

Wull I need to haul my bass and band gear, and be just a little less jarred by the urban minefield, and I like to do that while still getting 25 MPG.

The minivan was perfect for that, the successor to the VW bus with or without Jesus.
