Like most everything “green” EVs require a backup system.

These vehicles are purchased mostly by affluent families with multiple vehicles.

And while the EV is what is used when they go to the quarterly meeting of the Sierra club, or the fundraiser for their Democrat Congressthing, or the Planned Parenthood Meetup; most of the time and most of the miles they are in the Range Rover or G Wagen, which is otherwise carefully parked in the garage out of sight.

All performative and fake. Just like the entirety of Elite political agendas.

Gee, I wonder why?

Actually I’ll never have first hand experience to find out why first hand. Until they become as inexpensive and dependable as IC engines they are really unthinkable.

If I had that kind of money to waste, it would be on land or some other investment.

Yeah, it’s because they’re either charging or die mid-journey.

Unless you’re tooling around on a golf course, EVs are for fags.

Don’t believe the crap you read about EVs.

Any article about EVs is not about the type of vehicle, it’s about Tesla and it’s an attack on Elon Musk.

If you haven’t noticed, since he switched @Twitter to @X, the left have been unable to drive any false narrative on the public.

Every gaslighting attempt has been shot down and the leading element is @X.

When it comes to EVs vs ICE, buy what you want, mandates of any kind suck, but remember the mandates & tax breaks that are currently in effect were written for Ford & GM, not Tesla. So don’t fault the company for being able to capitalize

It is not by choice ... they are lined up at charging stations waiting for their one hour charge.

I think there is a glaring omission here. They are just looking at the cost of fuel. Look at the cost of EV tires.

EVs are much heavier than tires for ICE cars and have much higher torque on the wheels. Their tires are larger and heavier than ICE cars and wear out much faster. I did a comparison with my gasoline F-150 that has premium tires versus an EV. I was going to save something like $10,000 on tires alone over the 50,000 mile life of my tires.

That’s another reason not to put extra miles on your EV. Its almost like Breitbart got sucked into putting out propaganda for building charging stations.

If you drive an EV and the stated range was false you end up taking out the skateboard and making your way to your destination. Thus, less miles in an EV than the easy way of the gas powered cars.
