The hatred of all things EV on FR is so annoying to me. I have one for the most important reason of all - they are fun and interesting. What is the point of life, if we can’t find things we enjoy? I also have ICE cars, and those are important and sometimes fun for me as well.
I also enjoy not having to worry about oil changes on my EV, or much of the routine maintenance you have to do with an ICE vehicle. Would I rely entirely on EV? Not a chance. However, they definitely have a great role to play as your daily commuter vehicle.
I can see why people dislike them if it is forced upon them though, but people on FR can ‘t even admit that they might be fun or have any useful purpose.
I’m sure the Early Adopters enjoy EVs as nice toys. Knock yourself out. But don’t believe for one second they are a viable replacement for ICE vehicles.

the name kinda gives it away
I don't like Electronic Vehicles because they are built on a pyramid of lies and cause more harm than good to our culture and society.
