Nissan Leaf base price 31,500 Hyundai Accent /Elantra 16,500. Nissan Sentra 19,500 But hey why be fiscally responsible when you can feel good about going green and lighting money on fire. It’s exactly the democratic way. Never mind what it costs. Just do it cuz it makes you feel good. Don’t forget to add the cost of charger. Sure you can argue it comes with one. The one it comes with takes 20hrs to charge a car completely. The next upgrade takes 8 hrs and the highest upgrade is 30 min . So add another 1000 for installing a charger . Oh and if you don’t drive daily your car will lose its charge And you’ll watch that battery deplete a lot faster than it did off a fresh charged one. That gap will shorten once Biden and company destroy our self reliance for energy and oil by implementing outrageous EPA standards and gas goes back to 5.00 gallon. If then your still not getting the upfront cost differential to break even for years. Like I said they’re great for those that want to buy them and feel good about themselves , even better if someone buys it be be green. They’re not fiscally responsible For the average American. Ramming this down people’s throats and making it a goal to be a sole product of a nation is completely asinine. |
You can't tow an xstar with a Hyundai Accent or Nissan Sentra! Practically useless!

What is this about "groups"? That is where you are poisoned and don't even know. I am not a member of any group. I am me. I do not see my self as a color. I am a dude trying to make my way and make sure my kids have a better start than I did. That's it. I see a tide raising all boats. I don't see sinking others for others to get ahead. that is the crabs in a bucket mindset that many of these "groups" get into. Group think. I do not know you as a Hispanic female ( I have to assume since you democrats are so gender and racially fluid these days) but if you do well then so be it. Your "group" of politicians, I would like to kick to the curb because you are pure evil. |

As far as gay people looking at your kids in school, there is a reason why gay kids don't feel exactly comfortable about saying they are gay in high school and junior high. Someone thinks they are looking at them sideways sexually in the locker room there is more than likely going to be trouble for them. That is why don't ask don't tell tends to work for the greater good in that case. Now you are just saying F it. |

The US government subsidizes the oil industry to the tune of $20b per year. Why? That should be stopped immediately. Electric vehicles will continue to tumble in prices as the volume increases, it makes sense to give it a helping hand to accelerate the tipping point where electric is both cheaper and greener. |

new model 3 START at $38,000 base. Honda Accord LX with a 4 cyclinder and loaded otherwise is $24,000. I am sure that model 3 is over $40,000. That is almost BMW 3 series price. Can that Tesla make a 20 hour drive in one day? How do they do in a national park with no charge stations? Or during the simply 10 hour drive on the freeway to just get across the state of Kansas? |

I read the article and their assumptions are sketchy at best and clearly bias Let me quote the article your posted on their own data Before jumping into that, though, it’s critical to remember that assumptions are key in such analyses. With very different assumptions for some of the variables, the Accord could be cheaper Add in the fact their data set has the standard driving mileage at OVER 21-30k per year , the argument and article becomes even more absurd. The average American drives 13k a year. So again your electric vehicle argument only benefits a small portion of the actual driving community , in very specific conditions. This article is a complete fantasy to a majority of drivers Super charging stations.....now that’s funny. What happened when you pull up to super charging station and there isn’t one available because it’s being used ? Who is footing the bill for these commercial “super charging stations? More importantly what happens whe the route you need to take doesn’t have any? Not sure about you , but 30 min of my time every couple hundred miles is very valuable, as is it for a majority of People driving long distances. |

I wonder if the 4 hours of driving is 4 hours of driving at 70 mph on the freeway. At this point I would not categorize the car as a good road trip car. you can not even make it to LA from here. Could not make it across Kansas without stopping for 1.5 hours. that is a ton of time to stop. vast majority of America does not have super charger stations. That requires a crap load of electrical grid on highways now. That is a whole new ball of wax especially trying to get right of way rights to run all that electrical. If you think it is going to be solar panel charging. No driving at night. It has it's place but I don't want to have to manage my car. It is a tool. I get in and I go. I stop for fuel once a week if I am commuting and it takes 5 minutes max. |

The super charger network is pretty filled out already and more been added as more cars get sold. You can drive coast to coast no problem. The progress tesla has made over the last 5 years is amazing, the next 5 years with other manufactures pushing them will be even futher. |
Today, according to fair and balanced sources, GM says they'll be all electric by 2035.

If you want really big picture thinking in 5 to 10 years a lot of people won't need their own car, when they need one you will just call one like an Uber and it will drive itself to you.

Do you not read and understand the arguments. The argument is these cars don’t have enough mileage capacity to make it long distances without stopping for long term charging thus having no value for People who travel long distances frequently. The second argument is you have to keep an EV longer offset the initial cost difference when compared to a gas counterpart. Both are 100% accurate . However in very special circumstances ( what your article touches on ) , you’re actual better off with an electric vehicle. This is not the norm for an average American .......It’s the complete minority........ but there is a way the initial cost of an EV is advantageous to its gas counterpart economically over time which is what this article explains. Again tho the situation explained In your article is not the norm. No one every said there isn’t a time when the EV is advantageous. The point is it’s only advantageous in a minute instance, which means making it the National Standard is completely retarded. Clearly something you can’t seem to comprehend. Yet again you’re focused on the details of where you’re at making an argument to try and spin it as the best for America, and once again your disconnect makes your argument laughable . |

That said I have an acquaintance that does a 400 mile drive back and forth to southern CA regularly in his model 3. He does have to make one 30 minute stop each way, but he says it's not that bad. In his case though, he has a home at either end of the drive, so he doesn't have to go searching for a second charging station upon arrival at his destination. 99% sure my next car will be electric. Which may make me hold on to the current gassers for a bit longer than I otherwise would. |

You also have massive natural gas usage especially in the colder areas. Those have to convert to electric which will add another massive drain. Going to have to go nuclear. Solar is not going to be enough. |

Btw, those quick charge stations they put on the way between say, NorCal and SoCal, at Harris Ranch for instance.... Those quick charges kill the long-term life of a battery exponentially.
|
I’ve been working on a job that’s a few hours from my house lately. We just had a big storm in NorCal that did a lot of damage. After arriving to work, I had to turn right back around and head home to address some damage as well as preventing further damage from the storm. If I had to wait for a friggin battery to charge, I’d have been screwed and could have sustained much further damage to my property.

Right now we are on the cusp of the technology really starting to take off. In the next 20 years we're going to see a transition to much more onsite PV panels / local battery storage, which will take stress off of the grid. If you can have a battery in your house that's good for 36 hours or so to act as a buffer, that should really help with mid summer AC spikes and whatnot. Even better when you can also charge that battery from your local PV panels to charge your car and avoid drawing on the grid at all on sunny days. 20 years ago some (but by no means all) of us were carrying flip phones and the OG ipod was still on the horizon. A lot can and will change in the next 20. |

I travel daily for work. long miles. long day. i laugh at my fellow reps who have electric cars, all stressed out, always late, always running out of juice, and always saying they never hit the mark and are always estimating on the high side. so it says 200 miles, its dead at 160. things like that are worthless until they can get 1000 miles per charge.

Its just Paul Bunyan Vs. The chainsaw once again. Cars were more expensive than horses back in the day. We didnt have the highway system or gas stations on every corner either. Your smartphone is a better computer than we had when we sent a man to the moon. Tell me one thing that wasnt improved over time. You are not being asked to make the decision today, do it in 10 years. No need to be afraid of progress nor jump on the bandwagon before you are ready.

Of course you couldn’t find Pelosi’s crooked deal info, nor do you choose to acknowledge it or comment on it. It doesn’t fit your warped view . Just the same BS from you as usual. Don’t answer any questions and never respond to anything , just lob bull**** news links. If we we’re to start arresting everyone based on social media posts , the liberals would lose half their voting core.
I guess you forgot all those BLM social media posters calling to kill cops, maybe your forgot all the acres Lib housewife’s and pussycat hat wearing lunatics calling to kill trump on social media. Love to know how many of them were tracked down and arrested by federal authorities. I can tell you in Chicago ZERO! Here we go with the double standard from you again. Still waiting on the answer if 13yr old boys belong getting naked in locker room with 13 yr old girls . Still waiting for you to explain how an 8yr old should have the ability to go for sex change therapy and be allowed to transform into a girl legally.

Maybe you missed this bill from the LUNACY LEFT California Gov. Gavin Newsom signed an order Wednesday that aims to end the sale of new gasoline and diesel-powered passenger cars in the state by 2035 These are the types of statements , projections , and idiocy that litter their party. It’s a complete fallacy and throwing billions at it is mental retardation, More mental defects Federal legislation was proposed in both the House of Representatives and the Senate that could radically shift the way the U.S. tackles its climate crisis. The Zero-Emission Vehicles Act would eliminate the sale of gas-powered passenger cars in the U.S. by 2040. How about focusing on some legislation that actually has substance. Biden will be going all in again on this nonsense https://m.huffpost.com/us/entry/us_5...mpression=true |
