OP is shady character and just getting ignored. LolI guess I missed the post where anyone said "electric cars" will save the environment.
Tesla isnt a car company. It's a tech company that uses cars to showcase its wares. Nice to be a billionaire with a hobby.I got a ride in a Tesla the other year, amazing car. The owner of that car could care less of “saving the environment,” he likes the tech features and the power.
I’d drive an EV, the instant power is fun. I would just need one that would work in my life, a full size SUV of some sort.
And I would still buy one of their non-car cars.Tesla isnt a car company. It's a tech company that uses cars to showcase its wares. Nice to be a billionaire with a hobby.

OK, boomer. lolI don't eat 'pretend it's beef burgers' and there's no such thing as
'saving the planet'.
I love combustion engines especially big V-8's.
I think golf carts are ok for old folks getting around in the neighborhood, plus I do love my little electric chainsaw, but a serious over the road electric vehicle, ya gotta be shittin me...oh, they still plug in to electric producers who use...gasp, coal and/or natural gas...save the planet my achin patooty.
Oh, and they're too damn quiet.
I find in hilarious that your manhood is so fragile that you denigrate anyone who would think differently than you.Since, I couldn't g.a.s. less what others think about me driving a big ass V-8 truck that gobbles gas...nope.
Drive a pitiful little shitbox?
You're joking.
Nah, they're for tea drinking metro-sexuals and elderly women.
I got big, heavy, shit to haul...
If your one vehicle was good for the road why not also for in town? My iphone battery is barely holding a charge. $49 to replace. How about my EV battery? In cold weather the range of an EV is markedly decreased. In any weather it takes battery to heat/cool. My brother has a Tesla and lives in the burn areas of California (dumb sob). Needs a generator when they shut his power off so that he can drive his Tesla out of the fire zone and escape.OK, boomer. lol
If I could afford two vehicles, one for road trips and one for around town I would have an EV today. I think charging times need to reduce before EVs are good for single vehicle people. However, I see you tube videos of Tesla owners taking trips, and they just plan accordingly.
It would need to be about an eleventh car for me.If I could afford two vehicles, one for road trips and one for around town I would have an EV today.
For the 99% of the time when the power is on (I never lost power during the Feb winter storm), not having to go to the gas station, the instant torque and tech would make an EV worthwhile.If your one vehicle was good for the road why not also for in town?

You assume that in town means that you will charge at home but we have just gone through rolling blackouts. My cars started even when I had no electricity at home.
Theoretically a hydrogen powered car sounds like a better deal with a fast charge to full capacity. Tesla has no high speed charging stations where I live. There will one day be a green solution to all of this, fusion. Not before that. If EV was so great let it stand on it's own without tax credits.
And which country has the rights to much of the world's supply of Lithium? You know.
Electric cars can be crazy fast. Lots of power. Range is the issue. I always wondered why they didn't do a diesel generator/electric vehicle like they do for the trains. Scale it down and you've got power and economy together. Even a gas generator would work. Could me a much smaller motor than the engines currently used, and once up to speed, the electric motor(s) won't require as much juice.
You technically could, but you would need to plan a lengthy (30+ minutes) stop in Waco to recharge.Who could come to the family reunion if we all had ev's I couldnt
Having had a greenhouse destroyed in a hailstorm isn't this a concern for solar? Are those panels fragile?I've bought into solar fairly heavily, a 9kw grid-tied system with limited emergency battery backing. I also have one well on 1200w solar direct, and I have an electric golf cart.
I'd love to have an EV as a local runabout, something more than my 48v EZGO MPT, that was highway legal and semi-capable. It wouldn't even need to have much range (200 mile RT), but it would have to be cheap.
