Do your own research as I don't give 2 hoots what other people say.
Dead Teslas are a dime a dozen In Chikago, What do you think is happening?
So you made it up. Ok.
Remember, this is Chicago where they replaced the light bulbs in traffic lights for led's to conserve energy. When it got cold enough the snow covered the lights as the led's didn't generate enough heat to melt it.
So sorry for the sheeple that bought into this brainwashed idea as the future...Maybe it is the future but not feaseable right now.. Even now not enough infrastructure to support the EV"s even under the best of weather condition as of now. They loved the smell of the roses and now they get to sleep on the thorns. .................................. drill sgt.
You realize Tesla has sold over 4.5 million cars ? They work daily.
The Chicago debacle is one day and one group that the media jumped on.

Yeah, they work, as long as you can charge them, until the battery will no longer hold a charge, then it's basically scrap.
All this talk about electrical grids being strained, rolling blackouts, ect, and the addition of electric vehicles seems like great planning coming to fruition.
IC vehicles may have their flaws, as with any machine, but I think it's safe to say that they remain the superior choice vs electric and will likely remain superior for a while, until our beloved government regulates them out of existence.
I wouldn't mind test driving one though, they are definitely superior in the performance department vs the average sports car.

Did you get stuck? As in buying into Elon's hype?
I read and research a lot, same as changing the CV joint on my VW, I research before I do it, but would rather do it myself than pay someone.
So, ur avoiding I guess.
You made up the part about "Temperature Safety Low," right ?

No doubt safety features are beyond some peoples comprehension.
Here sport, more made up news as to why your EV sucks butt on a cold day.

Did Elon design the ACRO P2 battery??
I especially get a laugh out of the articles of EV owners renting an ICE vehicle for their vacation travels. Now that is surely golden!

Lacking infrastructure and slower-than-promised recharges could make roadtrips hell for EV owners

This is probably all true but it doesn’t change the fact that electric cars simply just aren’t as convenient and as efficient as vehicles with internal combustion engines. I like the technology in them personally but it seems like too much of a hassle for every day life. I’m good with standing at the pump once a week for a minute or so and until they come out with electric cars that can rival gas and diesel I’ll stick to vehicles with internal combustion engines.
I look at electric cars like a convertible. Nice to have if you can afford it and drive around on weekends and whatnot but not practical for every day life.
It’s really not even comparable though to be honest. The lines at gas stations move pretty quickly considering it only takes a minute or two to fill up. Imagine what those lines would look like if everyone was driving electric vehicles and had to wait several minutes for a charge possibly up to an hour.
They dont have to. They charge at home.
Still avoiding.
But thats not what the article says John. He was forced to rent a car for his vacation because the charging stations were broken along the way.I especially get a laugh out of the articles of EV owners renting an ICE vehicle for their vacation travels. Now that is surely golden!

That's the solution for the individuals with a garage and charging station. What about the people who live in apartments? People who don’t have charging stations at home?
Electric cars are cool but not practical for every day life. Like I said in a previous post I look at electric cars like convertibles. Fun to have but not practical for every day life.
I always wondered about that. I am not sure how they do it. I'd guess some apartments have them.
I stayed at a hotel a few years ago and they had one in the front parking lot which is strange. I asked the Mgr. why it was there. He said there is a customer who stays weekly with them for years and he asked for it to be installed or he would have to go elsewhere, so they installed it. Apparently Tesla pays for businesses to install them, and gives them a free destination charger.
I'd say 4.5 million people would disagree with you.
