Comment on Republicans are pulling out all the stops to reverse EV adoption

  Why do you suspect that when other Tesla models are only marginally less shitty?

  There are so many other EV options now and pretty much all of them are of higher quality. Some of them are cheaper.

    Yes, we’re finally getting some choices. Next time you need to purchase a personal vehicle, please consider which EV is right for you.

    There are reasons Teslas are still most popular, and you may benefit by figuring out why, rather than spout propaganda

      They are still the most popular because they have the most hype, not because they are the best choice.

      Not going to buy an EV. No charging stations nearby. Can’t install a charging station where I live. I probably have 10 years of driving left so I will stick with an ICE.

        Seems like a good plan that’s right for your situation, but for all of our future, I hope that’s rare ten years from now.

        For anyone in their own house, where it’s pretty straightforward to install a charger …. It’s damn nice to never again have to go to a local refueling station. Recharging your car can be just like your phone: plug it in overnight and it’s just always full.

        Yeah, it can be a bit less convenient on a road trip, but 95+% time, plugging into your home charger is more convenient

      Plenty of companies make them. They just aren’t allowed to sell them in the U.S. most of the time. And that should be changed.
