Let's Discuss This Rationally, Shall We?

Make more money, peasant.

My grandmother makes this same comment on her sewing blog every time they write about an expensive sewing machine. She swears up and down they should only write about sewing machines she likes! 

Hey just curious, do you post this same thing on all the articles Jalop posts about really expensive cars that guzzle gas and make lots of noise?  Or is it just this one?

You aren’t going to believe this, but they sell two versions of what you want already!

How dare you bring logic into this debacle!

Ol' Georgie really wiffed a lot of the writing of the PT. Obi-Wan has disproven his own statement by being a non-Sith making an absolute assertion. It should be something like “The Sith tend to deal in absolutes.”

“Biggest issue when things got going again was a lot of ICE cars had killed their batteries keeping their engines off and radios on. So every so often there was just a car stopped in the middle of the highway.”

I think it’s much more likely that you’d find a person who left the house with less than a quarter tank of gas than a person with less than 25% charge on an EV.

Yeah, absolute statements are seldom accurate. 

That’s one of the advantages of EVs, though. So long as you have a place to charge at home, most people are going to start their commute at 100%.

Bradley, I logged in after a long absence to point out that a Mach E still uses resistive heating just like your leaf and they both have the same efficiency 100%. The difference is proportion (bigger battery) and likely insulation.

Pretty much every ev except the lower range leafs now have thermally managed batteries.

I got stuck on a highway once in my Model S on the way to Vegas when some guy decided to yard sale his travel trailer all over the highway on and it took a while to get it all cleaned up.

I think we were there for 4 hours.

Biggest

so it basically used somewhere between 18~23kwh or so of electricity (give or take depending on which battery they had) to run the car. that’s about $5 worth of electricity. not terrible.

I’m guessing as long as the EV has a way to keep the battery warm, it’s really not a big deal. 

That pretty miuch confirmed what my thoughts were, plus you don’t have to worry about a snow drift covering the exhaust and killing you!

that would make too much sense, so no, denied.

They should just include the masks with the COVID tests!
