    Yeah… So for those of us more or less forced into a car-dependent city plan, EVs are pretty awesome and much better for the climate than an ICE car. But they also take a different mindset than the gas-powered cars we’ve spent decades living with.

    Muddying the waters with irrelevant comments like that, things not specific to EVs at all, doesn’t help any. Yes, it happens, and yes, it’s creepy. I even posted on the old site about how to disable it on my car (same username, feel free to check my posts). But when you add in stupid stuff like that, you’re not helping anything.
