Abstract: An electronic computing device includes at least one processor; and system memory. The system memory includes instructions which, when executed by the at least one processor, cause the electronic computing device to receive information regarding outstanding loans for a borrower, generate a graphical user interface, perform a benefits analysis for a consolidation group, display, based on a benefits analysis, a consolidated loan, and update the exclusion listing to include any of the outstanding loans determined to result in lost benefits based on the benefits analysis.

Abstract: A method for processing requests to consolidate loans includes receiving, from one or more third party electronic computing devices, information regarding outstanding loans for a user that are issued by one or more third party lenders. The information is sent to a user electronic computing device. A selection is received of loans the user wishes to refinance or consolidate. A benefits analysis is performed for the loans. Based on the benefits analysis, a determination is made of whether any of the outstanding loans can be consolidated, and whether any of the loans are excluded from being consolidated. Consolidated loan information is sent to the user electronic computing device regarding a consolidated loan for any of the loans that can be consolidated. Exclusion information is sent to the user electronic computing device regarding any of the loans that are excluded from being consolidated.

Abstract: Regeneration control techniques for an electrified vehicle include a regeneration control device arranged on a first surface in the electrified vehicle such that it is accessible to a driver of the electrified vehicle, the regeneration control device being configured to control a selected regeneration level for the electrified vehicle from a plurality of different regeneration levels and a controller configured to control a regeneration system of the electrified vehicle based on the selected regeneration level, wherein the regeneration system includes at least one of a regenerative braking system of the electrified vehicle and a torque generator/consumer mode of an electric motor of the electrified vehicle, and wherein the regeneration control device provides the driver with the ability to perform faster adjustments to a degree of regeneration by the regeneration system during operation of the electrified vehicle.

Abstract: An electric drive vehicle includes an electric motor having an output shaft, a gearbox assembly operably coupled to the output shaft, and a differential assembly configured to drive first and second axle shafts, where the first axle shaft includes separated first and second shaft portions. A disconnect system is configured to selectively connect the first shaft portion and the second shaft portion. In a driving mode, the disconnect system connects the first and second shaft portions for common rotation. In a towing mode, the disconnect system disconnects the first and second shaft portions to enable the electric drive vehicle to be towed without backdriving the electric motor.

Abstract: Rock rail assemblies are provided for motor vehicles. An exemplary rock rail assembly may include a beam structure, an energy absorbing structure, and an outer skin. The energy absorbing structure may reinforce the beam structure and may be configured to distribute point loads when an obstacle impinges upon the rock rail assembly. The beam structure may be made of a metallic material, the energy absorbing structure may be made of a foamed polymer-based material, and the outer skin may be made of a polymer-based material. The rock rail assemblies may be constructed in a manufacturing method that involves roll forming and extrusion processes.

Abstract: A vehicle includes a driver side pillar extending between a door and a roof. The pillar forms a face having an outer edge adjacent the driver side door and an inner edge. Similarly, a passenger side pillar extends between a door and the roof and forms a face having an outer edge adjacent the door and inner edge. A windshield supported by a cowl and the roof has a driver side edge that extends beyond the inner edge of the driver side face and substantially covers the driver side pillar and a passenger side edge that extends beyond the inner edge of the passenger side face and substantially covers the passenger side pillar. The vehicle further includes a frit bonded around a periphery of the windshield. The frit substantially covers and is bonded to the driver and passenger side pillars making them appear to be a dark or black color.

Abstract: A vehicle includes a roof panel, hinge bracket, cover, and retaining clip. The roof panel defines a recess. The hinge bracket is secured to the roof panel within the recess. The cover is disposed in the recess. The cover has a doghouse that extends downward toward the bracket. The retaining clip has a head that is disposed within the doghouse, a stem that extends downward from the head beyond the doghouse, and a biasing element that forces an opposing surface of the stem into contact with an edge of the bracket.

Abstract: Representative implementations of devices and techniques provide local and/or remote control for an appliance. A load control device includes local controls and also includes communication components for remote operations. In one implementation, the load control device is configurable for use with a variety of appliances based on interchangeable sleeves that adapt the load control device to power leads having different configurations.
