While I'm in this thread, I might as well report on something I saw at the Coquitlam Superstore charger this morning. Actually, I saw the EV the night before, too, but it was way too busy and the driver couldn't wait for me to finish and the Kia Should that was after me in line, to start charging. It's a Mercedes Benz all electric SUV. Cot Dam, that thing was sweet. It'll make one wAnder why anyone would even consider a Tesla. It's called an EQC. Not even available here till next year. It's only available in Germany at the moment. Anyway, the driver was part of the research team testing out the charging capabilities of the beast of a machine. Did I tell you this thing was a beauty? It was down right sexy as all hell. The technology in it was amazing. Heads up display. A true one, not one of those cheesy ones you see in Kia's and Hyundai's. Split folding console and a gorgeous dash. None of this one screen monstrosity you see in Tesla's. This car was luxury at its best. Dude let me open the doors and see inside. I was scared to touch anything that luxurious. He was definitely proud of this car............ in the back was a rack full of electronics and sensing/recording devices. He was fine tuning stuff on a laptop. Anyway, I was late for Hard Rock Casino, so I had to go. I had a really nice conversation with the guy. It didn't occur to me to take any photos or videos. Okay, I snuck a walk around video in there, but won't upload or share, out of courtesy. The guy was genuinely a nice technician.

I've been seeing this one Jaguar all electric vehicle at the Marine Drive Superstore DC Fast Charger and I thought that was one nice looking car. This Mercedes is a whole nother level...........
