Funny!

$5600 to replace a tail light? Not a Tesla, a regular Ford F-150.

645

Those LED taillights are an absolute biotch to get replaced, since you can’t just get a bulb anymore you have to replace the whole f’in assembly.

646

That’s effing stupidd.

When we transition to EVs, there won’t be a revenue stream from maintenance or parts. So the manufacturers are trying to make new revenue streams to fleece the consumers. Have you noticed that new cars have flush bumpers in the rear, so even a minor bump will damage the rear hatch door? Crazy.

Okay, let’s say you’re driving with a trailer. Say 800 miles. I’ll use my buddy’s F250 diesel with 36 gal tank. He stops 3 times to refuel. Time elapsed, 45 minutes.

Lightning stops 7 times minimum. Not sure how long it takes to charge but it has to be hours.

So you wouldn’t use your Camry to tow? What’s the difference?

I really don’t understand the anti-EV hatred.

I didn’t care for the Pontiac Aztek, but I didn’t key them over the dislike.

And are there widespread cases of gas pump vandalism, like there are EV chargers?

Last time I went to Rudy’s there was a dually triple parked, blocking access to three of the chargers.

Well that’s just peak tiny wang syndrome. Which is pretty much all what it stems from insecure men.

And that place is simply a haven for squatters, nothing else. Could it become a boomtown?

So the Mercedes G EV has 4 motors, one for each wheel, so what you say?

658

All these defenders must own oil wells or something :joy: - or the same folks who despise mass transit in houston cause it makes too much sense at the end of the day

If you can cut major maintenance off my bill hell yeah I’m on board

Confirmed for 2023? Last I checked it is now 2024.

Also, I thought Elon was against Hydrogen vehicles.

661

Musks take on hydrogen is, if you need to use any energy whatsoever to make hydrogen, then just use that energy to power electric cars directly and get rid of the middle man.

662

Seems sensible. Unless one takes significantly less energy.
