Another good idea poorly executed. A better and more fair option would be to delete the gas tax and make both types pay a per-mile-driven tax based on weight and size. If you want to encourage ev adoption, keep the gas tax but call it a carbon tax and use those proceeds for healthcare.
This isn’t age, it’s value proposition. When you go from a C class to an S class, yes it’s bigger, but also EVERYTHING is nicer. You get more space and power, but you get better leather, better seats, nicer touches, quiter interior. Everything across the board justifies the price increase. When you step up from a…
We walk our dogs in shifts.
Is it white, fluffy, and large?
Their jobs they assign themselves are very, very important to them.
If you were concerned about security, you’d have multiple layers, kinda like multi-factor authentication for logging into your accounts.
Only one smart outlet? Those are rookie numbers. I have a chain of seven different smart outlets that terminate at a gas generator pull started by dropping just the right feed in front of a tethered moose.
Do that in my house, and the entire neighborhood will be awake..
the ability to turn the seats 90* to put kids in the seat is amazing. how has it not been done before?! loading and unloading my child from their carseat would be so so much easier with this function.
Big boxy SUV. Commence money printing.
As opposed to a massive 7 passenger ICE that gets crappy gas mileage? So what you are really upset about is the idea that people have families and want to drive them places right?
He also seems to forget that many people have families and drive to vacation spots. You can only get so small before you have to leave little Timmy at home and pack the whole family’s gear in a single duffle bag.
Huge EV with massive battery (because they will be massive) drive me crazy. Yeah save the planet.
Yeah i just filled up our ICE (RX400h) and at 25mpg and $4.70/gal it’s $0.19/mile. Just the ICE number sounds suspiciously low. You’d need to average 30mpg at the US average of $3.40/gallon which isn’t really representative of the ICE fleet (it’s more like 25 mpg)
the EV is running on $0.36/kwh and gets about 333…
Uh, what? This smells like bullshit to me.
My Chevy Bolt uses about 29Kwh to drive 100 miles.
I pay .25 per Kw to charge at home. That’s $7.25 for 100 miles.
My gas car gets about 22 mpg combined, for 100 miles that’s 4.5 gallons @ $4/gal = $18 in regular gas for 100 miles.
oh man, this rational take is NOT going to be well received here. but i’ll give you a star without verifying anything.
I am by no means defending Tesla or Elon but you need to compare TSLA to other stocks and the market before just rattling off that TSLA is down 51% this year. Just checked Amazon and they are down around 49% from last year, Nikola is 78.56%, Rivian 78.71%, Lucid 81.44, Fiskar 60.93%. Even the big boys like Toyota,…
