Still want an EV? (NO POLITICS)

When is already stated. 2030 or 2035 for the US.

I’m speechless. Your blissful ignorance continues to astound.

Also, pivoting over is just a matter of looking for a car when the conditions meet our needs. Currently I do not see it.


Let’s be honest, that’s still 7-12 years away, my kid will be leaving high school then, I am just not convinced yet on a user level. I am in no rush to jump in on technology that is simply, still got many iterations to go before it is anywhere near its peak.

Again, with the 2030-2035, I’ll believe it when it is far closer to the date. It’s just buying a car when the time is right and it meets my needs. None of the current crop of offerings meets both mine and the wife's list.

Of course, that's my take, it works for you then more power to you.

With more people buying ev’s, it surely is working for a lot than people want to believe.

Mass adaptation is not far away.

It’s very easy to say a certain technology won’t work in present time.

That is why I always say let’s monitor these discussions in 1 or 2 year increments. So people can see it advancing from the last time they were arguing it won’t work.

Same concept here. You guys don’t think it’ll work or it’s stupid etc is fine.

We’ll see how that looks in a couple of years.

In the UK...

That’s why elon is the man lol

Yeah, as long as we have child slave labor mining cobalt, EVs will work out fine.
Utter hypocrisy.

Whereas if you took your ev6 you can’t use the tesla supercharger network. At least not yet I don’t think. Maybe Elon will be kind enough to allow non teslas use his network somehow.

I didn’t ignore what you said, I already shitted on it.

Tesla is the leader in ev period. Best performance, range and network for its price period.

Have fun.

Two questions.

How % of your portfolio is in TSLA?

Do you jerk off to Tesla or have you?

Where am I wrong in anything I’m saying regarding tesla being the number one ev car maker?

I sure do jerk off to my tesla because it’s a superior ev brand. Do you jerk off to Elon? Pretty sure you dream about his nut all over your face.

1. I mean you seem very confident about whats happening in 10 years that you are "shitting" on everyone here. so I bet 100% of your portfolio is in tesla becauce your thinking is so absolute. most people talk shit, but where their money is really speaks volumes to what they think.

2. nice, i def yank to my m3.

I’m judging past advances towards what we’re seeing now.

This is accelerating much faster as each year that passes.

I’m ok with this happening doesn’t mean I wish ice dies tomorrow.

I’m just saying everyone who’s fucking bitching is doing that for nothing because this is happening regardless.

fair enough, as long as the government doesn't tell me what to do then fuck it. I could give a fly fuck.

There is a shortage of electronic chips and prices are through the roof, this is because of EV's and automation requiring more chips causing further strain on an already overstretched industry that's short of raw materials.
I was talking with a guy in Europe who's business depends on chip supply for his electronic products and the chip factories are asking ridiculous prices which is driving him out of business.

But that’s exactly what they are doing, and he doesn’t care. In fact, I think he’s kind of excited about it. None of this will be taking place without governments throughout the world ordering it to happen.

No, that doesn’t take away from the idea of having electric vehicles as an option being very cool. I think it’s a great idea so long as capitalism dictates what gets sold and not government picking winners and losers. If EV does take over ice it’s not doing so because of consumer interest, it’s only doing so because of favoritism on the part of government(s). Once again, he’s OK with that as our millions of other people. I am not. I believe you’re not either.

Exactly.

Basically what I gathered is people hate tesla, not entirely so much ev as a whole.

I got my Tesla because it’s THE BEST EV you can buy period.

If the car wasn’t good and say Dodge came out with one just like it regarding power, range and network for the same price point as tesla I would get that. I’m not brand loyal. I get whatever is the best bang for buck. Tesla is that.

[G35POPPEDMYCHERRY]

theres no doubt tesla is the biggest player right now with the best cars...but its like going to sharktank with a new soda idea...coke and pepsi own the world. so sooner or later other makers will catch up. i know a stretcher but you all will get it.

alas we like in a world of massive virtue signaling, and people like greta get put on TIME magazine for their short-sighted ideas. people love to cheer in the present for ideas that require massive work (not saying it can't or shouldn't be done). forgetting the past and the future. the government runs our power grid and as such will demand usage to undergo the infrastructure changed. so i agree its only a matter of time before ICE is all gone. not in my lifetime tho

Right. I said this many times in these ev threads.

I said it’ll take 5-7 years for car makers to catch Tesla. Faster if tesla doesn’t innovate what they have now or slower if they do.

But people hate tesla so much they kill the middle man who praise the brand even though I’m not wrong on everything said about the car maker.

They are the number 1 ev car maker today period.

People need to stock up on their tampons for their pussies.

Cheese and rice. This thread and the Corvette thread have just been "Let's just all say the same thing to each other over and over until we die."

For the life of me, I can't understand why they wouldn't develop hydrogen powered cars.
Synthetic fuels will help keep us going while the morons in Washington and other world leaders screw everything up. The price is high now, but scale things up and the price will drop drastically.

My understanding is the energy it takes to create hydrogen is more than the energy of the resulting energy in the hydrogen.

I thought 100% hydrogen was going to win out. Mainly because using it seems a lot like how we use gas. Just retrofit gas stations to pump hydrogen. Then I saw some video about why batteries won out and it made sense. It's apparently quite expensive to build hydrogen stations, it's not very efficient etc. I don't remember all the points, but I remember after I saw it I understood why it lost.

That was before even considering an EV. Now that I own one I personally wouldn't want hydrogen. One of the things I like most is never going to "fill up". I just plug it in at home and I always start the day with a full "tank". However I can see how some people may prefer it.

[BGM-M3COMP]

And not to mention how dangerous a hydrogen station would be.

[chris719]

Hydrogen is dumb as hell from a physics and economic standpoint. Hybrid ICE is a far better strategy for those use cases that EVs are not suitable for.
