OK, so how long does a battery hold it’s charge when sitting in the drive for a long period?
Stock up on this stuff:
I was joking with him. Lighten up. Did you think he was that old????
“As we previously stated, these miles are not all on the original motor and battery. In fact, by November 2019, Gemmingen had gone through four motors and three battery packs.”
The auto plants assemble, it's the small non union manufacturing companies who supply the parts.....
When the recession hit under the Carter years, here in metro Detroit tons of tool and die shops and small parts manufacturers went out of business. A friend of mine lost his and the father of a gal I knew lost his tool and die shop too....
FWIW, these shops were great for entry level kids getting into the skilled trades and ultimately gaining enough work experience to qualify for journeymen's cards that would get them into the Big Three companies....
Too late, boys, you did your jobs and got this regime in power. You are NO LONGER NEEDED.
Huge difference between setting a solar panel on my lawn vs distilling trees.
Quite. So many of the arguments are downright obsolete, and remainder are tracking there fast.
Like the GOPe, the leadership of the UAW is complexity out of touch with their “base”.
> Huge difference between setting a solar panel on my lawn vs distilling trees.
Granted. I’m just pointing out that it is not impossible to produce your own fuel for a gasoline or diesel engine.
Of course it’s easier to recharge an electric vehicle from solar panels than it is to produce synfuel or biodiesel. However, assuming you have a normal-sized rooftop solar installation, you can expect several days of clear weather to fully charge an EV’s battery from almost empty.
Personally, I like the idea of fuel-cell electric cars that refuel by loading a zinc chain onto a spool, while dumping a load of zinc oxide/zinc hydroxide into recovery tanks at the service station for ‘recharging’
One million kilometers, not one million miles.
But people who worship at the Tesla Temple don’t worry about minor discrepancies like that.
“I was just thinking that, what happens in a hurricane when the power is out?”
Not arguing the big point, but when the power is out you ain’t getting no gas.
Still working on the laws of thermodynamics problem, are we?
Union leadership supports Democrat
Democrat attacks and weakens industry
Union membership realizes it got screwed
Union leadership blames Republicans

Electric vehicles will be as main stream.
Not so sure about that hydrogen fuels and fuel cells are on the up tick many oil companies are investing in the product.
Hydrogen doesn’t produce any smog emissions only water.
Thanks for responding! From the article itself a person says they are in the “goldilocks” zone. Not too hot, not too cold.
Fairbanks regularly gets in the -20F to -30F range in winter. And quite often down to -50 to -60 during a cold snap.
There is absolutely no way EV could survive in that weather. Not yet.
As far as Anchorage, they are also a lot more temperate than the interior of AK. It’s just not feasible. Maybe someday, but I just can’t see it happening. Another important part is the vast distances between places up here. Juneau is an island, and the heart of the leftist cabal in Alaska as well.
I haven’t. And certainly not in CA. And when everyone is killing the grid with electric cars it will be a common occurance.
Yes you do have gas. Gas can be stored in gas cans. People fill in and put gas cans in the trunk or back of the pickup. Where to you put your emergency electricity?
You could use a generator if fossil fuel wasn’t outlawed. 😂
It is not just the physical pump that needs electricity. It is the payment system which also needs the Internet.
