Supercharge your Tesla all the time, means your battery will wear out quicker. Replacement cost -— $23,000? Under warranty is less.

This was as predictable as the sun rising in the east.
there are stupid people everywhere. Most of them vote with a certain jackass as their symbol..
Surprise! All battery powered cara do ia central the pollution they create since they mostly run on coal power.

Correct
Here’s my question. Gas users are paying state/Cty/Fed taxes on their gas purchase. What are the taxes for EV elec consumers? Or is it “0”?
Bottom line: Deep States don’t want people driving.
Period.
And they are doing a great job at it so far.
Is there a state in the US that doesn’t tax residential electricity use?
If so, let me know! :-)
And for anyone else curious about retail prices...

New England is screwed, too...
Where can I get a wife that makes 30 miles per gallon? My wife doesn’t make near that.
Gas is cheaper in the U.S. We had a RAV4 Prime in 2020-2021, a chargeable hybrid. Charging off house current (at the time) was about half the cost of gasoline, per mile, but public charging stations nearby cost about the same as gasoline. Gas was a lot back then, of course.
Looking at one of my recent electric/gas bills, state taxes are hidden in the basic charges. In PA, it’s called the Gross Receipts Tax, the rate is 59 mills ($59 per $1000).
The bill says zero taxes on electricity, but they are there nonetheless. They just don’t tell you how much tax you are paying.
All of this talk about EVs and their effect on power grids almost always means cars. What about the effects of semi trucks, locomotives, and other forms of transportation that the greens are demanding turn electric ASAP? I’m sure that recharging a big rig will use more time and energy as several cars. Would be interesting to see a trucker recharging his rig during rolling blackouts.
The figures in that chart are misleading. They don’t mention the additional charges the electric companies impose.
They say PA rates are $0.097 per kWh, with the added charges, I am paying around $0.20 per kWh, more than double.
The chart is just for the retail rate. :-)
Been trying to find one which includes taxes to no avail. :-(
Here’s a chart from NYS which includes everything.
Holy crap.
Note to EV buyers in NYS: Caveat emptor. Bigtime.
And by the target date of 2035, when (in their elitist unicorn single digit IQ brains) only EVs are on the road, the cost per charge will be ten times what it is today. Suckers.
Last night on the tv weather forecast, they suggested that anyone in the path of the hurricane fill their gas tanks. They showed the lines at gas stations.
Now fast forward to a world where there are no gas stations, no gas tanks, no gas. It’s all electric. Millions of people plug their EVs in, and poof! the grid collapses.
But it won’t happen, because you won’t be allowed to charge your EV. Only authorized EVs will be able to charge when there’s a severe weather alert. So forget about evacuation. Forget about driving to higher ground. Forget about going to aunt Suzie’s. Freeze in the dark while your house is blown away.
