“Watch the Video”
I did. I cited it correctly. You misstated it.
.
You’re not defending your boy, Lindsey Graham, today?
People will watch it and know you’re pushing the Left Agenda.
Links? Sounds bizarre. I have owned a Nissan Leaf EV for 4 years, and have a zero-cost of repairs. Bi-annual service checks (mandatory to enforce warranty) cost about $30 each time. Why would anyone want a Tesla if cost of repairs is that high? Must be just for accident cases.
My 2021 has one.
So put the spare tire in a trailer towed behind the car. That way there's no weight penalty.
/sarc
So do Broncos.
EV owners should be required to sport the spare over their heads, like the halo they think they have.
People will watch it and know you’re pushing an Agenda by misstating the facts..
“Links? Sounds bizarre. ... Why would anyone want a Tesla if cost of repairs is that high? Must be just for accident cases.”
Anthony is “misstating” the video. Most of that $69k is depreciation and it is five years not four and only for the Model S.
Tesla warranty is for four years so no way would repair costs be $69k for first four years.
Cant have a fossil fuel spare? Why don’t they put wood wheels on the cars then?
“Why don’t they put wood wheels on the cars then?”
Three lumberjacks; Sam, Dave, and Ben; are felling trees when a bear approaches them. Sam says “stay back or we’ll kill you with our axes!” The bear responds, “woah! I’m a proud vegetarian. I just wanted to offer you all a nicely cooked dinner since you’ve all been working so hard and are probably hungry.”
The three lumberjacks agree since none of them like to cook.
After eating a nice vegetarian dinner with the bear at their campsite, the bear asks if he could sleep the night there. Sam replies with “no way! This is a trick for you to eat us.”
Dave says “aw c’mon Sam, the bear has been so nice to us, I’m sure he won’t hurt us.” After some discussion the lumberjacks agree to let the bear stay the night.
The next morning Sam and Ben wake up to see Dave’s carcass in his tent. They both get angry at the bear for eating Dave and kill it.
While felling trees later that day, Sam asks Ben for advice on how to get stronger.
Ben replies “Swing an axe, carry heavy logs, and never skip eating protein at any meal.”
You're not pushing an agenda though, are ya?
Say, what EV do you own? Do tell.
Maybe 15 years ago Car and Driver did a test/article where they equipped a vehicle with a matched set of space-saver spares then did their typical road test. Surprisingly, the results were not that much worse than the car with the standard issue tires.
I suspect in an emergency a space-saver spare would last significantly more than 50 miles. Lawyers and sue-happy owners are probably the reason for that mileage limitation suggestion.
“You’re not pushing an agenda though, are ya?”
Nope. Just pointing out false narrative of those that have an agenda.
Funny, I was looking at a new Miata. They don’t come with a spare. I guess I don’t like living dangerously.
Which EV do you own and drive?
In the past, customers used to be kings. Now they’re ATM machines.
