You’re paying $30 more per week for gas, so go out and order a $60,000 electric vehicle. Makes total sense. Ha.

Does Colbert get a commission, for telling his viewers to buy a Tesla?

I still don’t get his joke. He said he’s willing to pay $15 a gallon for gas, because he drives a Tesla. What is the joke? If he doesn’t buy gas at all because he drives a Tesla, how can he say he’s willing to pay more for a product he doesn’t even buy in the first place?

A plug in hybrid makes sense. Full electric not so much for many people.

Then these idiots will find out how expensive electricity is.

Well, at least once the Gov overlords pull the subsidy rug out from under them.

This is the same behavior that happened during the last big gas price spike under Bush 43. People panicked near the end of it, traded in their trucks for econoboxes. Within a few months oil went from $147 to $27 and they were all so angry!

They lost thousands on trading to save a couple of hundred bucks worth of gas and then were stuck with toy cars that would cost thousands to trade off again.

This time they are falling for Biden’s chicanery. Even at today’s price, gas is cheaper (adjusted for inflation) than it has been for most of the last 30 years!

People do the dumbest things with their money and then complain there’s no way to “get ahead”.

The other surprise happens when after buying an EV, they call their insurance company.

Oops.

I would like to see a comparison of an electric bill before and after the purchase of an E.V.

Funny you NEVER hear any of those reports.

Let the city dwellers reduce oil consumption.
It would help us

Wait for the summer blackouts from Bidens energy policies. The Tesla drivers may not be so smug

The best thing about a Tesla, so long as you have one, you’ll never be without means to start a fire.
