Some did.  The average person doesn't.  Wasn't the average person your whole "point" in the first place?

 

So I guess we are now debating if it works for a poor who also drives 50 miles uphill both ways to work :roll:

If you hardly drive an EV doesn't offer much in savings, and the restrictions outweigh the inconvenience of the limited range.

We can just disagree, and you can still buy the car you want. I will stand by what I said. For the average person, the tech for EVs is not quite there yet. That's my belief. By all means keep trying to change my minds and I will keep replying with jokes about Joe who just wants to get home and see his family after workong 12 hours, but has to stop for a coffee first in order to make it there.

It's your belief, but you have yet to make one solid point to support it. You only make these broad declarations and hypothetical examples that are way to easy to poke holes through.  Example:

Joe who works 12 hours and wants to see has family isn't going to stop for coffee to charge it.  Its going to get his butt home and plug it in and even with a trickle charge has enough to get to and from work each day.

 

Or you said people who only drive a little won't reap savings because they don't use much gas.  But you leave out maintenance savings.

'63 split window. This is owned by a friend Rod Saboury from MD. He loves vettes and especially the split windows. Below are a few other of his builds over the years. (though the one above was actually built by Rad Rides by Troy as a show only car, and Rod bought it and converted it to a street car.)

 

The one below was the fastest street car back in 2008 on street tires through the mufflers.

You should drink less though, EV conversations seem to rile you up.

I rarely by new, and usually run them till they have well over 200K....  and I'm not what you would call poor. I just dont throw money away, and dont use my car as a status symbol

Lots of ugly things are expensive. Every see someone who has had an ish-ton of plastic surgery and they looked worse? That's what those cars remind me of.

Gotta be honest, off the top of my head, I couldn't tell you the square root of 487567.3287634977

But I could say, with absolute certainty, the answer is neither blue or George Washington.

 

I hope you pick a really nice EV.

I'd rather drive one of those than a Telsa. And I like Tesla's. 

Suffice it to say you wouldn't like any of my current cars except my 2014 Volvo XC60. It's the only thing that remains "mostly" stock outside of my RV.

My father in law is getting a Rivian....

Meh... it's ok.

The cars that are underneath all that crap are great. I also love resto-mods, where they add modern parts and features to cool classic cars. The paint jobs, added body parts, and other crap on those pictures make them look terrible. Like they audtioned for a Fast and Furious movie but never got a call back. Obviously my opinion of course.

He likes to drag race as well, so most of his cars are set up as dual useage, Street/race. 

 

I like em all. 

Oh, and some of the high end EVs are beautiful and perform absolutely amazing. If I were a car guy I'd probably at least want to drive one.

You can do some mods to the Tesla's and make them even faster.

I could actually see myself buying a car like this when the kiddies are out of the house.  Right now I don't care to own more than two vehicles and I generally look for practicality over form. I try and pair my two cars to compliment each other based on my current needs.

Yeah I know. Hell, they have software updates that add performance. Pretty cool.

Model S Plaid does 0-60 in 1.99 seconds out of the box.  Over 1000 hp.

 

Apparently it doesn't brake so hot tho.
