I’m toying with the idea of getting another car next year when the economy turns to shit (and hopefully not me with it!).
Cool cars were in my list but I’m thinking the sensible choice is a new Tesla Y performance.
An electric car would essentially be our local town car and we would sell whatever one of the other 2 cars we used the least. The Merc used 20.1L/100km on the school drop off this morning lol 😂
We are installing a 40kwh solar system on our house which I know will easily have enough spare to charge the car. So the whole ‘free fuel’ thing is a big incentive aswell.
Does anyone own a Tesla? Or have friends that have them? Wait time is 9 months or so.

Are you vegan? Are kale chips your favorite snack to share with your boyfriend?

Fake stocks, fake 401k's, fake Bitcoins, and whatever else, rich Gordon Geckos can find to screw you out of your money.
They literally make shit up for you to put your money into, and they have all the inside info.
Sure, some Joe blows make money, but just as in gambling, the house always wins.
They pool your money and take it.

Ok, when it gets a heck of a lot worse then.
Combustion engine motorbikes are phased out here by 2030. I believe combustion engine cars are out by 2035. It’s a 9 month wait for a Model Y here and no doubt that is going to blow out until price rises hit harder.

Every economic indicator is in the shitter and sinking fast. I’ll admit the Tesla’s are a badass looking car but other than that, electric vehicles don’t do shit as far “green energy” as a matter of fact they’re no better and in some ways worse than combustion engines. Btw, both are powered by coal and might I say electric vehicles are more dangerous because you can’t freaking hear them

People like Couch hear rhetoric like "the electricity you're charging your car comes from coal power stations" and get stuck there and blame politics. They are unable to think for themselves or work out that going forward most of the electricity will be generated by renewables.
Meanwhile people like me are offering expert insights like this
Topic: GM Going All Electric By 2035
In reality this has nothing to do with going carbon neutral and pandering to lefties.
The tech required to make solar and wind energy viable (highly profitable) isn't very far off. Nuclear energy will also become sexy again. Battery technology has vastly improved and will continue to do so.
This isn't about going green, it's about the bottom line. They will be a far more profitable business by going electric as demand for petrol powered vehicles will dry up. It will just be something for enthusiasts, kinda like those who get off on steam engines.
Renewables are raking in obscene profit right now and nuclear is sexy again.

There are experts here in every field possible here at getbig. No further research is needed by the OP. In fact I bet world leaders read this site to get ideas and understand the economy better.

Overpriced garbage.

Nuclear is the way.
France isn’t stupid ;) God knows what the Germans are doing, basically handing Europe over to France.

Have heard a few things about that but is that earlier models rather than the current stuff?
Performance wise it’s hard to go past. To get anything as quick I need to spend 250k on the Porsche.

How fast do you need to go? I got a 700 horsepower pickup truck that goes 0-60 in slightly under 4 seconds, sounds fucking awesome loud as fuck. No need for any faster than that.when I hit the gas people shit themselves. What’s the point in going fast with no sound? I know to each their own but I need noise with my speed,haha.

I own a Model 3, very happy with it. I probably won't use it much in the snow as I've heard the real wheel models are not good in that type of weather. It is comfortable, roomy, lots of nice features. Very fast too. Simply order it via the website, $250 deposit. I waited 6 months.

To me, Tesla's look like batteries wrapped in sheet metal. I think they are one of the ugliest cars on the road with the exception of the Plaid which looks sporty.

The way a car "looks" is also a reflection of society.
With Tesla cars, it is about the money. They look like Civics or Corrolas. It's all about "I have a Tesla electric car!"
Nobody gives a shit.

Most Getbiggers own multiple Tesla’s.

The majority of people who own EV's charge via electric grid powered by coal etc. I'm sure electric vehicles have a market in the city. Other than that.. it won't end well. Hauling gear or a trailer will kill the range on a battery.
There will not be enough renewable resources to sustain a worldwide transportation conversion.
Also once the battery loses it's power holding capabilities. Throw away the Tesla and buy another one. No longevity. Used batteries will be a toxic problem as well .
Anything the government endorses stay clear of it.

You better build a faraday cage for your electrical car. In the event of an EMP blast.
And if the power grid goes down during a nuclear war electric cars will be useless. You'll need a gasoline car for a Mad Max world.

Where will we get the gas?

By refining the oil drained from Big Ramy's delts.

Did you read the article?
I’m not a fans of the electric movement, but this is not saying Tesla is junk, but that the model 3 is the only recommended car.

Fine.
Serious question though.
What other car company has a 25% recommendation rate for their line up?
-
Last thing I want to do is plug my car in for energy. I barely remember to charge my phone.
-
We are in the same predicament as the horse and buggy vs. The Model T Ford.
We don't need electric cars. Climate changes will happen regardless. We will have another Ice age, we will have another great flood....
How stupid are you people?
When all of these catastrophes were happening thousands and millions of years ago, what was our carbon footprint then?
I'm booking my next cruise on Noah's Ark.

Have you considered the VW ID4?

Never be an early adopter of new car models.

I have no idea. I think Teslas are one of the ugliest cars on the road. Batteries wrapped in metal. Having one is the "in" thing. I'd take my M5 Competition over any Tesla.

I also have 3 chickens. You seen how much eggs are and how many eggs I have. I’m basically a God at this point.

Fuck your M5. I had one and the engine blew up. 63k repair bill. It’s like bragging you got aids having sex with good looking men.

Why do they make electric cars so ugly?

Still in warranty my man.
I didn’t have it serviced at BMW so I was fucked unless I took it to court. I am fortunate to be able to walk away and not deal with the stress.
I ride my electric scooter more than I drive my current car. I thought a Tesla made sense but now I’m on the scooter which costs nothing and is super easy to get around on a Tesla isn’t making sense.
