#2I really miss DriveNow in SF and the South Bay. It was really convenient if I missed my shuttle in the mornings, or if I had to come back to the city on the weekends. One more reason to ditch SF and move to Seattle I suppose.

#3I really love using Car2Go in Brooklyn. I transit/Bike/Walk 95% of the time, but it's great to have a one-way option when I take a trip that doesn't line up well transit lines.

#4Actually saw one of their BMW i3s driving on Bellevue yesterday. Was impressed at how quickly it accelerated. Doubt the battery life lasted long driving like that though.

No don't move to Seattle it rains a lot and there's no sun for 9 months.
Also, volcanoes.

#6I really would love to da an AMA about it. But I guess I'm not allowed. I'll check with marketing some time after the launch party ;)

If you're trying to keep people from moving to Seattle, at least mention the earthquakes and tsunamis.
> FEMA projects that nearly thirteen thousand people will die in the Cascadia earthquake and tsunami. Another twenty-seven thousand will be injured, and the agency expects that it will need to provide shelter for a million displaced people, and food and water for another two and a half million.
> we now know that the odds of the big Cascadia earthquake happening in the next fifty years are roughly one in three. The odds of the very big one are roughly one in ten.

You'll get used to the rain. Earthquakes and volcanic eruptions are rare. If you want to keep people away, tell 'am about the astonishingly shitty drivers, because after sixteen years they continue to annoy me on a daily basis.

100% torque at zero RPM means even a Leaf is zippy from 0-20mph. After that it transforms back to an underpowered compact car. I3 had more horsepower and torque, so I imagine that it's even more fun. Spirited driving does take its toll on range, though.
