Have you met Jeep or Hemi owners? :) My point being that every single thing in this world has cult like adherents, the vocal 1% of fanatics about anything. Go make a video explaining why Jeeps are destroying our planets wild spaces. You want to see a cult spring into action and your views go off the charts? :) Not that I think any such thing about Jeeps, but it doesn't have to be true.

Jeep and Hemi Disciples aren't trying to force everyone into a Jeep or Hemi.

Aye, aye Brother Tesla.

Neither are the great majority of Tesla or EV owners. Again, its the 1% rule. Thinking the 1% reflects the everyone is where you go wrong.

Not sure how many times I need to say that EVs are not for everyone, nor do they fit all use cases, nor should adoption be forced. I think Tesla makes the best and best value EVs on the planet. And I'll correct BS about them or EVs in general when I see it. Or about anything for that matter.

EVs as the majority of vehicles only makes sense when you add nukes into the mix.

1st thing you've said that makes any sense. Put all the EVs and owners in a pile and nuke them. Well done Polly.

Notice that I've excluded hybrids, at least those owners have shown a modicum of common sense.

Idk about value. I know someone with a Chevy Spark, it was like 20k and other than the charging network I'd say it was the best value. It's a peppy little thing too.

Except of course, I've been saying these things right along. You just choose to ignore them because it ruins the "GLHS is a left wing EV disciple nutjob". :)

I think we might do better to gather up all the coal rolling diesel douches trucks and nuke those. Not the owners, just the trucks. And I say that not as a guy who will buy an EV, but as a constant motorcycle rider who hates breathing in that crap. ONe time heading into Gate Three, the guy ahead of me had his thing tuned so bad my visor was dirty by the time I got through the gate.

I'll save time for Brother EV.... "No big deal. Wheels fall off all the time."
I'd say it's more of a Tesla thing vs EV thing.

The plant in CA was a basket case when it was a joint venture GM/Toyota thing, probably the same California workers in it for Tesla.

I think Teslas future is in licensing their tech and a charging network company and becoming a supplier to others, higher profit, less risk.

That and Elon has probably milked all of the easy money out of the govt. and publics stupid.

He's also gotta be making a killing on these Solar Panel contracts too.

If they're lucky, they'll get paid off just about the time the break even point approaches and just in time for new replacements to start the clock ticking again.

Oddly enough, the Spark isnt an EV. The only EV that GM sells in the category is the Bolt.
