Gas car owner: “well you can’t charge your EV as fast as I can refuel my gas tank”

And you can’t click on their notification and go right to that place to respond. This all worked a couple of years ago and has been going backward. For a business model that thrives on clicks and engagement, that is counter-productive. It really is a joke.

People can still use the feature incorrectly no matter what its called. If i put a waterbottle on my wheel, I can defeat the torque monitoring on my wheel and my car can drive itself with LKAS and ACC. Does that make VW at fault?

Exactly. This isnt an electrical car issue, its a modern car issue.

I’m sure it doesn’t matter with today’s weaponry, but it’s been light blue since 1962. Long enough for the scheme to become associated with understated power and authority.

Yeah. How else is the owner going to make the payments on his new boat?

This is just a long rant to excuse yourself from any inconvenience.  There’s plenty individuals can do that not only save them money, but help.  Fact is, we’re in this mess because too many people take your approach.  No different than NIMBYs.

I don’t know for certain who issued the DMCA challenge to the video; of course people are suggesting Tesla was behind it, but I don’t think Tesla would have copyright claims to a video they didn’t shoot.

Holy cow, this article is pure junk.

Oh, please.  The civilized among us drill holes in the floorboard and run a catheter up to the driver’s seat.

That may be true - but anyone who drives 400+ miles with one 5 minute gas stop must be driving in a car brimming with piss-filled gatorade bottles.

Its a shame that people who don’t like EVs can’t recognize the value of all that torque to help them move their goalposts all the time.

I’ll be patiently waiting in the comments for someone to come say how this EV won’t work for them because their commute is 600 miles each way in the snow towing a 12,000lb trailer.

Haven’t really watch flat track here but when I lived in the UK, I used to watch Speedway which is similar.

Technically the term “Big 3” should refer to Ford, GM and Tesla.  Stellantis shouldn’t count since it’s technically as ‘domestic’ as Toyota these days.

In fact, there’s a word for the biological process where the cells in your toes divide and divide again.
