6.5 years later (never having a service), decided to take my car in for a checkup...absolutley nothing wrong with it. Changed the tyres once, a few windscreen wipers and air filters. Can still pull a 3.3second 0-100 And cost about $300 over its lifetime to charge...

@DeadlessHick @Specialized_Cb @DunkenKBliths You are becoming very boring. Reaching for whatever you can find. I’ve given you answers to every question but you are a brainwashed fool. Just because you don’t agree with me doesn’t mean I’m wrong. Good luck with your health

Alright man you've lost the plot so hard you've resorted to making up easily-disprovable lies. You think EVs haven't succeeded because they haven't found out how to break the first law of thermodynamics? What was the highest grade level you completed? And where did anyone expect a government not to tax them? Nobody was even talking about taxes in this thread. But since you brought it up, mind comparing how much taxes there are on gas versus electricity?

@DeadlessHick @DunkenKBliths @CuriousAboutEVs You said they have just as many in rural areas. Once again your opinions are far from the truth. Ev’s wouldn’t even be able to withstand the harsh roads or environments. And the cost to fix ev tractors, trucks and other machinery they use would be absurd

You brought farmers up in a bad attemp to shift the goalposts of the conversation when you kept getting proven wrong. And it doesnt even make sense because farmers hate their complex oil-burning equipment breaking, that costs them $$ and by extension, the consumer. Your claim that EVs dont work in rural areas is also completely unfounded, unless ruralites dont have electricity. Ruralites drive farther than city folk, but it would be oustandingly absurd to claim every single ruralite, or even the vast majority of them, would somehow drive over 230 miles a day (the lowest-tier Model 3 claims up to 272 miles a charge). You're debating a howler right now, dont try and bring the left into this, this is a pragmatic topic.

Woke up this morning with a "full tank." Didn't go to a servo. Didn't spend $120. Just… plugged in overnight like my phone. Owning a Tesla in Australia is genuinely unfair to petrol drivers. I feel bad. (I don't.) ⚡🤣

@ShaneDernelley What happens when a gas station has no power? Where I live, we lost power for 10 minutes 2 years ago. Either way, my car was fully charged. You can drive to supercharger somewhere, or if you have solar and batteries, it doesn't matter.

"Do you have the patience to own an EV?" Similar headlines and sentiments can be found all over, and most people have it totally backwards. In reality, I no longer have the patience to get gas every week. I find it extremely annoying when I need my truck, and it's on empty. Especially if I'm meeting someone. Once having a "full tank" every morning becomes the default, you simply don't think about this stuff. Our cars eat while we sleep. Any amount of time spent dealing with them not having enough energy to function becomes a PITA. These sentiments about saving time ring extra hollow when I go to Costco, for example. Hundreds of people choose to waste 35 minutes of their day just to save a couple dollars. As they realize they could be saving time and money together, this type of spectacle will fade into history.

@DeadlessHick @Specialized_Cb @DunkenKBliths Electric trucks and cars were invented well over 100yrs ago which traveled further than today’s ev’s. One would have thought they progressed to ultimately charge while running. You were duped thinking you wouldn’t be taxed by the government either if you bought one 🤣

@ShaneDernelley @Specialized_Cb @DunkenKBliths What is the actual root of where you stem from on all this? It comes across as very anti-progress. Nobody anywhere is trying to have a conversation about converting anything electric to gas, because that would be utterly ridiculous and a clear regression in tech progress.

@Dustin77770066 @DunkenKBliths Ev’s only work in metropolitan. In any case I would never own one because my health is more important than sitting on a huge power cell continuously running through my body

Reread the responses from your previous responses to this thread...almost every comment is factually incorrect. Your opinions aren't facts and things you've heard from negative Facebook posts don't hold water when you dig into them. You have strong opinions towards diesel and they have there place but there not cheaper. Towing long distances if concerned with time you can make a case perhaps. If you have other common misconceptions we would be happy to enlighten you.

@MyTeslaMoonship @ShaneDernelley @DunkenKBliths When he claims Diesel is a “healthy” energy source, he lost any semblance of intellect. The fumes from burning it have been proven to be worse for us than regular petrol cars.

@ShaneDernelley @coddington503 @DunkenKBliths What on earth makes you think this? Have you never heard of OnStar? FordPass? Toyota RemoteConnect? I promise you, OnStar has existed with these capabilities long before EVs started gaining widespread adoption

@DeadlessHick @DunkenKBliths @CuriousAboutEVs Farmers aren’t relevant? This is exactly the behaviour of what a city person says. Ev’s don’t work in rural areas. Yet they feed the whole population using combustion engines. Or most leftist think it just magically appears in shops. Ev’s might work in cities, not rural

You keep moving the goalpost, nobody is even arguing farmers should adopt 100% EVs. Farmers are also less than 2% of (my area's) population, they are not relevant to this discussion. Also, even if we were to talk about farmers, that's a demographic also adopting electric equipment in leiu of gas. Also, my Prius and all EVs have instant torque available at 0rpm, and dont need silly, provlematic gearboxes. Gas and diesel cars couldnt even move themselves from a standstill if not for clutches, torque converters, math and physics helping them out. I'm definitely not some liberal who doesnt appreciate cars, gas has its applications, namely the heaviest and longest of hauls, and motorsports.

@ShaneDernelley @Specialized_Cb @DunkenKBliths We have different options with our utilities, the default plan that's being phased out is 50% renewable powered, with Power100 being 100% renewable. There are two natural gas plants somewhat near me, however my home supposedly does not draw energy from these.
