Looked at Teslas online tonight, just can’t justify one. I have a Buick suv that I use as a truck, great mpg and the yellow Vette that runs on 4 cylinders around town. I’d lke a tesla, they’d be fun
We’ll see in about 5 more years when it’s time to replace the batteries just what the overall cost is then. BTW, who would ever buy a used 5 year old EV?
I know electric cars are the future but, I miss the vroom, vroom,vroom. I’ll keep driving my Camaro until I can’t anymore. After then, I won’t care ‘cause I’ll probably won’t be driving anymore.
The economics for EV and hybrids will probably change after the next election or two once they start charging road tax or a mileage tax so everyone contributes to maintaining the roads we all drive on. Politicians talk about needing more money for roads and bridges but a tax on EV isn’t consistent with the current narrative. Neither battery technology or the electric grid (power generation and distribution) are ready for EV. Someone said recently “cart before the horse”, forgot who so I can’t give credit where due.

So Cosmo, are you going to be running on low-octane today? Or just on fumes?

This joke is about six months too late. Gas here is down more than a $1, and is now just slightly above where it was a year ago.

Business (in America) will rob you every way they can and then blame it on politicians.
