Long haul trucking batteries will likely be at cost parity with diesel trucks this year.

We have 2 electric Volvo FHs with everything else speced exactly like my diesel powered Volvo FH 500 turbo compound (gearbox, final drive, tyres, cab/cab equipment). With my 1265 litre tanks, I go about 4000 kilometres - load dependant - against their max 300 kilometre range - also load dependant. It takes me 15 minutes at a fast pump to fill the tanks. It takes the EVs 30 minutes to get to 80% on a fast-charger. They cost more than double my ICE to purchase. The price has a long way to fall, ignoring the range completely. Battery powered trucks are only good for the 'last mile' deliveries, everything else needs to be hydrogen powered.

This is how I do it. I plan checkout as I put stuff in the cart. Heavy/hard/non-crushables at the back, squashables at the front and delicates in the baby seat. Makes loading the conveyor belt a breeze.

That can't be right, Bielefeld really doesn't exist, whereas Oz does.

That is how apes open bananas too.

Not that I'm implying anything of course.

That's not Germans, that's Luxemburgers. Many Germans speak English, some will speak the neighbouring country's language close to the border, but not 5 languages.

When driving don't be nice, be predictable.

Eg.: If you are on the priority road, drive - don't be nice and slow down to let someone in from a side road. That's how you get rear-ended.

In the UK the 00s are called 'the noughties'.

It's pronounced ex-spouse . . . Wait, what was the question again?
