“The electric vehicle honeymoon is over.”
oh stop it already.
You don’t want one, don’t buy it.
EV’s are prefect for lots and lots of folks.
I want one but can’t justify the cost for my limited use.
Would really like something like a simple, stripped 1985 Toyota Pickup with a Tesla motor, or an EV powered Kei truck. I don’t need a 2 Ton, $50K, 13 Ft long ICE monster.
Stop the subsidies (for ICE cars and Petroleum too), and let the market work.
We don't have a market economy anymore. Government picks winners and losers.
“EV’s are prefect for lots and lots of folks.”
They are perfect for no one. They have zero advantages.
They are perfect for Virtue Grandstanding.
You’re the only one making any sense here. Seems like everyone else is just basing their views on raw emotion.
There are many potential advantages to an EV economy/market.
The one I find the most appealing is the potential to be totally independent.
If there were millions of conservatives living off grid using solar, it would make us much more resilient.
Gas and diesel do not store well. Our electric grid could collapse (or experience long-term outages). Propane and similar ways to store energy do store well but are not cheap or efficient for many applications, such as vehicles.
An electric car battery could potentially store and supply electricity to an off-grid home when the electric grid is unavailable.
Of course, there are disadvantages, but these do not negate that EVs have lots of potential benefits.
