This sounds like a post from someone who still uses brakes in their car and changes too many fluids.I have dozens of devices at home that use batteries. Literally dozens and my flat hasn't blown up yet. I'm an old cyberpunk like Musk so I really do like my toys and bots. "Never mind the curb weight of those EVs." You live in the land of SUV's and stinky pick-up trucks every 3 feet, so don't talk to me about the weight of my sedan like it is a legitimate issue. "Also never mind the power grid problems" Where do we live? In Cuba where the grid can't handle consumer microwaves? wtf, this is America! If you don't like the fact that the average age of the transmission line is 53 years old (!!!) then vote for Trump and dump buyden. Yeah, I said it, because this is such a sad sack excuse it's practically democratic. "the comparatively low range and time consumed with charging." I do not understand the charge levied here. I plug it in every few days or once a week for my personal needs. My AC runs more. I know someone who has a very old nissan leaf, and he doesn't even plug it in to his gorgeous garage every night. If you are talking about the fabled "road trip" that everyone in the USA does 3 times a week I assume from how often this is argued, I will be honest. I have not beat been able to beat the car yet. It will always get the charge it needs before I can finish peeing and eat a sandwich. Therefore, this talk of superchargers at a steak and shake or other such places do not work imo without some adjustment. We need a quasi-system for malls and restaurants that match the time you are there. They are either too fast, or too slow. "I don't mind rich people having their toys, mind you." Like Trump I want a cybertruck too. I agree. Maybe if I didn't mind the Saudi's, I'd want a Lucid. Model 3's are cheaper than the price of the average new car. Avg price of a new car was 43k I recall 2 years ago. I haven't seen an article this year stating the average. |
