EVs are not reliable when it is too cold. And neither are they reliable when it is too hot. It's a Goldilocks and the Three Bears type of vehicle. The temperature has to be just right.

There used to be a series on cable about a towing company in the mountains of British Columbia that was constantly being called out during the winter to clear up huge wrecks. I wonder how electric trucks would handle the mountains of western Canada,Montana,Idaho,inland Kalifornia...

“after waiting for years”

My mother’s uncle in East Germany waited 10 years to get a Trabant. We really are becoming like the the old Soviet bloc.

I’d have turned around long before I was in 2.5 feet of snow. But I’m sensible and drive an ICE truck.

This result of EVs not starting in very cold weather has been reported and observed many times over the past few years. It should no longer come as a big surprise.

Rivian stock was selling for $146 a share two years ago. It is now at $13.59 a share.

A $2100 towing bill? Did they fly it first class?

[Taxman]

We know, and they know, that the “Greeen New Deal” os a five million pound turd, but as long as they can make money off of it at our expense, they will keep the FRaud/scam alive!

There are probably around4 of these trucks here in my region of our state - and I’ve seen at least 3 of them on the side of the road in the last year.

“But after owning the car for just days, it got stuck in the snow and immobilized by a safety feature, leading to a $2,100 bill to transport it to a repair facility.”

For the LIFE OF ME, I cannot understand why people seem intent to ABUSE Electric Cars by trying to actually drive them, whereas they only exist to Virtue Signal.

But I guess some will NEVER learn.

[Ignatz]

Who knew virtue-signaling could be so expensive?
Or required a basic skill set that included knowing how to use a shovel?

Owner says he got stuck in 2.5 feet of snow since commercials showed it plowing right along in the deep stuff.

Well, I have a 4WD and I'm not stupid enough to even try doing that.

[mowowie]

It is one thing to plow through 2.5 feet of snow at speed like in a car commercial and another to STOP in 2.5 feet of snow and ever expect a chance to get moving again.

[gitmo]

I’ve been stuck in the snow several times during my life. We always pushed the car out of the snowbank.
