The travel I do…range isn't there, so until technology gets out of the 70s….no. Never. |

I did a journey at the weekend, travelled 210 miles, 85 left in the ‘tank' at the end – all on the one charge. So while range is not brilliant, still perfect for me, especially when it costs about a tenner.. Don't get me wrong, I love my ICE, but my EV is a perfect daily.. |

Just wait until you have to replace the batteries or it gets into an accident. Back on topic, it's a no for me. |
CeruLucifus | 18 Feb 2024 6:13 p.m. PST |
We have a hybrid and a plug-in hybrid. |

Yes we will have to develop more electrical plants and when we do the same people who oppose oil will find something wrong with using all this electricity. |

Unlike most subjects I take a moral approach to EVs, as an environmentalist (and not as a mentally ill Green Global-Warmist) – even if I could afford an EV, I reject them based on child slave labour involved in lithium mining and the dispicable environmental effects involved in the production and disposal of the batteries. So I drive my 1997 Toyota ICE non-guilted by the fake virtue signalling "environmentalists". I have total control over it, it doesn't correct my stearing like modern bullsh*t cars, it doesn't connect me to the ing internet, I just drive. I love it. It's made in Japan by prolly Brazillian workers with Japanese blood in Aichi Japan. They're paid well and I've see how they live – Brazillian chicken and freedom. Many Brazillian Japanese have branched out with businesses etc, especially in Aichi where I've hanged out. You Tesla fans, just remember, your Lithium is prolly mined by 12 year old African slaves. Wake up. Do your research. Be awake. Be alive. It's not your fault if you were psyched out until now. Wake up now and make that change! Wake up brothers and sisters! |
