” I paid 96 dollars to fill my pickup yesterday. That was with the cheapest gasoline, not premium.”
Große Schadenfreude
Ha every EV owner is laughing our a&$es off at you guys.
It cost the equivalent to 67 cents per gallon to “fill” my Tesla 3, and the Model Y ranges from 250-300 watt hours per mile. Texas ERCOT power is 9 cents per kWh.
That means it’s also equivalent to 67 cents per gallon in a 28mpg vehicle or 80 cents per gallon at 320 wh/mile again against a 28 mpg ICE vehicle which the Model Y is not competing against it competes with the Ford Expedition that struggles to get 18mpg to hit 2.88 cents per mile in energy cost gasoline would need to be 52 cents per gallon in 2026 dollars at that.
Yeah we laughing hard at you guys.
Enjoy the suck as we zip by at pennies per gallon fuel costs. Oh and my model 3 was $20,000 less new than the Volvo it replaces more laughing to the bank.
It’s just gravy that my solar panels charge both essentially for free since they paid for themselves in power sales years ago it’s the lost power sales cost not retail energy cost to fill up the Teslas. When curtailment is called for it literally is free to charge or if the wholesale rate goes negative we get paid to take energy off the grid and I am getting paid to charge that is the Bee’s knees getting paid to fill my Teslas is winning so hard.
Enjoy the $100 fillups coming luddites deserve to get it good and hard as H.L.Mencken would be saying right now.
There is one maybe 2 Serious pickup ev’s. They suck.
