‘22 or ‘27 Bolt EUV?
I’m looking at a couple options and I’d like to get some input from folks. First one is a 2022 EUV Premiere with 27k miles. Has everything I want and price is about $23k. Other option would be to spec out a 2027 LT with some upgrades of items I want. I like the new LiFePO batteries in the ‘27s. New would run around $33k.
What would your choice be? What’s some of the pros/cons that you’ve experienced? Thanks!

Just got my new house valuation and, whoooo boy. Nebraska is addicted to property taxes and politicians have nothing forcing them to be efficient and good stewards of taxpayer dollars. So they greedily dive into the floods of extra revenue every year.
I’ve had this idea for a law, but it would need a petition drive to get this on the ballot. Basically, the law would state that after the new property valuations are in for the year, ALL levies must be adjusted so that the total generated revenue for each taxing agency cannot be more than 3% higher from the previous year’s revenue. And if an agency wanted to override the levy cap, it must be approved by a 2/3 majority of all voters who are subject to that particular levy.
I can hear the screaming already. But that’s what happens when you limit a junkie’s supply. Politicians and special interest groups will throw every tantrum and scream how this would wreck everything. But we the people are the final say, not the pols.

Got sent to Mission Control for work by our commander who was a former astronaut. Was there the day after the 40th anniversary of the first moon landing so we got to visit the Apollo command floor.
The mirror is off Apollo 13 and was put on a dedication plaque by the crew as a thank you to the controllers for getting them back home safely. The flag flew around the moon on Apollo X and there is a copy of the plaque they left on the moon. Sorry for the photo quality. It was taken on my 2009 flip potato.
