Date: December 16th, 2025 9:42 PM Author: ........,,,,,,......,.,.,.,,,,,,,,,, It's amazing how much EVs have fallen off. They're a much better and more convenient product. I go to the "gas station" for a charge like 4 times a year on trips.
But somehow Biden spent billions to build no charging network and make EVs less popular.
|
|
Date: December 16th, 2025 9:53 PM Author: .,.,,...,...,..,....,...,...,... Biden's biggest mistake was that, by promoting EV's, he convinced half the country that EV's are "woke" and therefore must be avoided at all costs. If Biden had promoted iPhones, Farm Animals would still be using their Nokia flip phones.
The other issue is that people don't realize how much the EV charging infrastructure has improved in the past few years. People think that you can't take EV's on road trips, which was basically true for non-Tesla EV's a few years ago, but it isn't even close to being true today. I tell people that I took my EV on a thousand-mile road trip and spent no more time charging than I would have spent at the gas station, and people don't believe me. |

They don't pollute. And within a few years, they will be significantly cheaper than ICE cars if battery prices continue dropping at their current rate. But otherwise they are pointless, I guess.

|
Date: December 17th, 2025 4:02 PM Author: .,.,,...,...,..,....,...,...,... Why do Farm Animals believe any stupid shit that they hear on Fox News? It is true that the manufacture of EV's is slightly more harmful to the environment than manufacturing an ICE car. But when you consider an ICE car belching emissions into the atmosphere for 20+ years while an EV emits nothing during that time, EV's are far cleaner. It's not particularly close.
Like I said, enjoy your flip phone, Farm Animal. |

EV's have fewer moving parts, so they last basically forever. You will lose battery range as the car gets older, but full battery failure is extremely rare in a modern EV. You're far more likely to have your engine or transmission go bad in an ICE car. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5810894&forum_id=2:#49517313) |

Learn to use your fucking brain rather than just mindlessly repeating what Fox News tells you. The reality is that, for modern EV's, the likelihood of a battery failure is significantly less than the likelihood of an engine or transmission failure in an ICE car. The first generation Leaf's were prone to battery failure, but this hasn't been an issue for a decade now. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5810894&forum_id=2:#49517669) |

Or are you an autist who can't admit that you don't know what you are talking about? As far as I know, every EV manufacturer will replace your battery if it loses more than 30% of its range within 100k miles. Most have warranties that are more generous than that. Battery replacements are extremely rare for modern EV's. As for the claim that engines don't fail any more, tell that to my friend who just had to junk her car because the engine went bad.

|
Date: December 17th, 2025 4:11 PM Author: .,.,,...,...,..,....,...,...,... This is completely idiotic. How many times per year does a person need to drive more than 40-50 miles in a day? Range is an absolute non-issue unless you are on a road trip. And even on a road trip, either I or one of my passengers has to stop to pee long before I am going to run out of battery.
In 2+ years of EV driving, the only time that range was an issue was when I was on a trip to a rural area in the mountains with no fast charging nearby. I had to make a long detour to a fast charger when it became obvious that my battery wouldn't last the entire trip. But at home, range is a non-issue because I charge to full in my garage every night. On the highway, range is a non-issue because the range of my car is much greater than the range of my bladder. Under normal conditions, range loss due to cold weather is not a concern. |

Date: December 17th, 2025 6:39 PM Author: .,.,,...,...,..,....,...,...,... First of all, you don't need a charging station unless you drive a lot every day. A 110V outlet will do the job albeit a bit more slowly. If you have a 220V outlet in your garage, you don't need a charging station at all. If you do decide to get one, I think all new cars in North America have agreed to adopt Tesla's NACS standard for charging. But if the standard changed for some reason, you get an adapter for $20. Also, my power company paid for my EV charger, so it cost me nothing. I wasn't going to install one because I didn't need it, but I figured there was no reason not to when it was free.
