If you’re virtue signaling to the other ignorant leftists and only need a grocery getter, its a fine idea....
I see all the fags are driving around in EVs. I mean, it’s their right. Free country. Whatever. I just wish they wouldn’t do it in public. So disgusting!
These EVs are nothing but a real pita as far as I can tell.
I should run my Cummins on used fryer grease thats as green as it gets.....but I dont need anymore “hobbies”...
On a related note
Have an opportunity to buy a good used Honda..Wifey says I should buy it because it would save me on gas as opposed to driving my other pickup to work. I told her...the math doesnt save me money. Better to just spend more on gasoline that manage three vehicles—doestn get it........logic isn’t the typical womans strength.
You think copper theft is bad now? Just wait.
It’s a great thing that Kemp took it upon himself to give away billions to EV companies.
Never asked the voters what they wanted. And fought them tooth and nail when they pushed back.
It has been shown that charging an EV is equivalent to a gas price of $17/gal.
People don't understand - "the market" will not make this decision, nor will you have any choice "not to buy an EV."
Fed.gov will simply mandate the car-making oligarchy to eliminate ICE vehicles. Toyota just announced, due to DOT fleet-mileage mandates, they were forced to switch all Camry's (their most popular sedan) to hybrid next year.
Mandating EVs are such a bad idea. So typical of the Communist ruling class peddling these insanely bad mandates. This is going to cause epic chaos in the future.
I still don’t quite see how the infrastructure for UNIVERSAL EV by 2030 (or whenever) is even possible, never mind getting it rolled out.
no worries
battery cars will not replace gas cars
the purpose of the battery cars is get rid of gas cars and therefore destroy private transportation
most will be on the bus or forced economically into 15 minute cities
So does stealing the cables for the copper. Chargers in Oakland (and I imagine other like places) cannot work for more than a few days before the cables are stolen.
Therein lies the #1 problem with EV's. Not the EV itself, but that so much of the EV cult believes government should solve all problems. EV owners and ICE owners (disclosure: I own one of each) are all better off if the government gets out of the way and lets the free market sell us what we want. That includes charging stations.
Imagine how much gas stations would have been hampered if beginning a century ago people demanded the government build new gas stations to transition from horses to ICE cars (and from EV cars, since many early cars were EV's). Any entrepreneur thinking about setting up a gas station would not do it if he was worried that within a year the government would set up a free gas station a block away. Thus, we wouldn't have as many gas stations as we do today. That's exactly what's happening today with the government "solution" for charging EV's. EV owners would be better off by quit talking about government "solutions" so that entrepreneurs would be more apt to go through the cost of setting up chargers.
I wonder what a family with three cars is going to do as far as charging at home? Install two chargers in the garage and one in the driveway?
Waiting to see the video of when some dumb ass tries to steal the catalytic converter off an EV and penetrates the battery with his reciprocating saw.
Pretty sure I read ford is losing about $36k on each one and there are 94k unsold on dealers lots. Anyone? Bueller?
The truth is coming out thru the one way they can’t block.
Word of mouth.
My brother bought a Korean EV and it was so bad, they had to fly in an engineer from Korea to try and fix it.
A friend of mine w a Nissan told me he was in constant fear of running out of power at the wrong time.
Both of these men were Sr Engineers.
Neither had long commutes.
One YUUUUUUGE problem with EVs is the TIME it takes to recharge it. When I fill up a tank of gas, it is only about a couple of minutes. With EV recharge, expect to waste at least THIRTY MINUTES each time. I got better things to do with my life than just waiting around for the charging to be complete.
Everything JennyGran touches turns to crap.
