Why is their hero Elon investing so much in EV with their other hero, China? Who considers Musk a hero? I like what he’s doing with SpaceX but could care less about twitter or Tesla as I will never support either of them.

I don’t consider a long drive just 250 miles. When I drive somewhere on a vacation I try to get at least 600 miles per day. 2 charges at about $13.00 each for 600 miles depending on driving habits. Add 45 min. to your trip. And to all you skeptics, we do it monthly for real, not speculation.

EVs are not yet practical. It’s just that simple.

Add 45 min. to your trip. And to all you skeptics, we do it monthly for real, not speculation. So which one is the truth... above or below... take your pick. You say your range is 250 based on normal usage... then you say you never go below 60% on the battery so that makes each stop only 100miles. Then you say you only fill up 2 times in a 600 mile drive. That is 200 miles per segment but that wouldnt be 60%
Which charger are you using and why recharge at 60%? No one stops for gas with over half a tank. Range anxiety?
Do you ever go for long drives? I personally don’t want to have to find a charging station and stop for hours at a time waiting to get charged to continue my journey. We drive 250 miles one way regularly. No problems with charging if necessary. Love the car (Tesla Model Y AWD LR). 330 mile range - actual high speed highway with a/c working is about 250 miles. We stop once for lunch, or to take a leak and car is charged to 100% in about 15 - 20 minutes. Never go below 60% charge. And yes, the computer will tell you how much range you will have at arrival. Cost of travel is 1/3 of gas.

Cost of travel is 1/3 of gas. Usually stop to stretch our legs. Like to reach our destination with at least a 2/3 charge so that we don't have to see a charger for another week of local driving. Use the Tesla Super Chargers, range depends on driving habits and accessories being used. And last, don't really care what you speculate as to anything. We love the car and are extremely satisfied with it's everything. Now go ahead and post something negative.

He bought twitter and exposed their lies and corruption they jumped ship. Twitter was just an extension of the government and they can stand stand for that loud voice to be wiped out

Maybe all of the EVs purchased are Chinese... likely not. If the Europeans, who drive very little and use public transport, are switching back to petrol... cant wait for the reckoning in the US EV market. Sales of Volkswagen electric cars have plunged by almost a quarter in Europe as demand for battery-powered vehicles stalls and buyers return to petrol.
Electric vehicle (EV) sales fell by 24pc in the first three months of the year as high inflation and rising energy prices dampened demand.
Globally, all-electric sales at the owner of Audi, Skoda and Porsche dropped by 3pc to 136,400, while sales of combustion engine cars climbed 4pc to nearly two million.finance.yahoo.com/news/volkswagen-electric-car-sales-plunge-122915038.html

Often wondered: Can you charge an EV at home of of your 115 household current?
If you can then who is going to pay road taxes so that the roadways can be maintained?
