The HARD TRUTH about EVs

Why the shit is this in the pics and videos forum? Move this dribble to roadside so I can ignore it there.
You’d think such an accomplished engineer would dazzle us with mathematical proof rather than just spouting off which university wasted tax payer dollars trying to educate him…
Again.
Math is math.
EVs are not economically viable at this stage in their development… and that will not change without drastic advances in energy storage technology (which is a pipe dream) and the infrastructure to support it.

You made a claim. Onus is on you. That's how science works Homer.
I already did the math. Search the forum and you’ll find a comprehensive review regarding my decision to not buy a shit box EV.
All without a welfare degree.
You’re welcome.

Oh I saw you're thread on mpg in your f150. It was about as scientific of an argument as you've made in here.
But sure, EVs aren't viable and Tesla won't make it after year one (yet somehow they're still here 15 years later and the model y is one of the best selling vehicles in the US).
Exactly. I bought a Plaid because it’s big, comfortable, smooth, reliable, packed with technology and as fast as a 1000CC bike. IDGAF about it being “green” and fully acknowledge that the manufacturing process offsets any emissions a similar ICE vehicle would emit.
But I understand where the assumptions come from. A lot of Tesla and EV owners are arrogant douchebags. They really believe their purchase is some high and mighty solution to a manmade climate crisis. Meanwhile, China and India just dumped 100,000 times more emissions than every ICE powered car combined for an entire year in the last 5 minutes.

It’s so awesome that in eight years it will be worthless. So awesome.Exactly. I bought a Plaid because it’s big, comfortable, smooth, reliable, packed with technology and as fast as a 1000CC bike.

This simply isn't true. You can literally go on autotrader right now to invalidate your comment.
Government Subsidies keep EVs floating.
And I’m not surprised you’re ability to research is so limited.
Has just about ZERO to do with MPGs on an F150.
It’s pretty obvious to be that you’re either a troll or a really REALLY bad “engineer.”
I’m calling bullshit on the Degree from Auburn… or maybe I have too much faith in our education system…hmmm.
I didn't read through it all as it's a pretty pointless thread to begin with. I'm not going to research every claim you've ever made because honestly, I don't give a shit.
You work for your money. You can spend it however you like.
But for some reason, you think you should dictate how others can spend theirs.
And government subsidies do not account for all EVs on the road as not all qualify.
There are many cons to EVs. Efficiency isn't one of them.
I don’t keep anything for more than a couple years. I’ll be fine.

Alright bud, you test this theory out. I’m sticking with vehicles that will be able to go the same distance every fill up. Imagine your truck could only travel half the distance after five years of ownership. What kind of idiot would think this is a good thing?
Lol, sure.
Lol, half the distance? Battery degradation isn’t nearly that bad. The battery has a 8 year 150k mile warranty with a max degradation of 30%. Meaning, if it sees more than 30% Tesla will replace the battery under warranty. Most see around 15-20% in that time.

Luxury cars depreciate, it’s a luxury, not a necessity. Go see what the resale value is on a $100k BMW or Mercedes after 8 years.

Well 2% is too much for me. I’m used to vehicles getting better mileage as they get older not worse. Couldn’t imagine getting 75miles per fill. Seriously that is laughable.
Your range is whatever the Tesla algorithm says it is.
Lol. There could be a deviation of 3-5% it’s not going to be half.

Don’t you have better things to do today like buy a new car? That mustang in your avatar looks 20 months old. Time for a new one.Luxury cars depreciate, it’s a luxury, not a necessity. Go see what the resale value is on a $100k BMW or Mercedes after 8 years.
