Y'all don't know that it wasn't correct in the first place.
Maybe @Paradiddle was truly bothered by the thread and admitting that he COULD care less.

I'm not necessarily against EVs in the right situation. However, you can buy a shit ton of gas or diesel for what that thing costs. Until they start making EVs that make sense, their market is going to be limited. EV should cost under $20K for a short range version, a bit more for longer ranges.
Prices need to come down by about 75% to get my attention. As it is, EVs are a toy for "green" elites and those who have more money than brains.If prices don't come down at least another 20-30% I'll just go with a gas sipping ICE.

Can you guys get ethanol free at the pump?
All I care about is the money I will save over driving the TJ @ 14 mpg every day.
Meh, if I can pick one up for under 20K and it has 100k miles left in it, I would save a pretty substantial amount.
I have no illusions that I'm saving the planet since nearly 100% of my electricity comes from coal (which is actually pretty damn clean now).

One thing tesla has done right is pack lifespan. They seem to do better than most other ev's for longetivity.
How so? I'm detached from EV maintenance, so other than the general stuff like battery lifespan, I really don't bother keeping up with the EV stuff.
There are a lot of 10 year old model s cars with decent range.
Do you, or anybody else, know if time or usage degrades these EVs more? I know batteries and electronics have an expiration date used or not, but does more use speed it up or slow things down?
Time itself? Idk

I wouldn't do it myself. Only thing worse than a Tesla is a used Tesla. Too much gratuitous tech to go wrong.
