Tesla Pt 3

Bylharris9

My best friend from high school called again and told me about the Federal tax credit. That makes it less than $100K. I still did not want the car. It was way too much money. Just see it. We can have lunch at the CheeseCake Factory and the Tesla store in the same mall. Just…

Tesla Pt 2

Bylharris9

I told one of my coworkers about the Tesla conversation and he told me he was on the list for a Model 3. Based on current estimates, he will have it by the end of the year. Unfortunately if I went on the list now, I might get my car in 2019. It doesn’t help…

Tesla

My friend is nothing if not persistent. He called again tonight. His boss has a Tesla and some of the people in his office he knows has one too. After a few choice words, the bottom line was I was not paying over $100K for a car. The ‘discussion’ went on for awhile.In the end…

Hybrid or Electric

My best friend since High School called. We started chatting about his new car. It was a hybrid and he loved it. It does 32 miles on electric and then uses gas. His work is about 10 miles from his house and has a charger so he doesn’t really need gas except to visit his…

Sirius/XM

I added the Sirius/XM skill to Alexa. For some reason when I tried a few time last night, nothing played. I deleted and set up the skill a few times. I tried it again this morning and everything worked. I was pretty impressed. Sirius/XM may now become my goto Music channels.

Amazon Echo Dash

I just got my Echo Dash and I did not have a good time setting it up. My first problem is I was using my iPad. I always use my iPad. Well it doesn’t work on the iPad, I had to use the iPhone. Once I used the iPhone the configuration was a breeze. Using…

Amazon Echo Show

Bylharris9

I received my Amazon Echo show today. It had the ‘cool’ factor but not the ‘wow’ factor. It seemed a light sluggish to me and the sound wasn’t as great as I expected. The video quality was good but not many of the skill really made use of the video. The timer function was a…
