Electric is coming... to everything


Recommended Posts

this was interesting
 

 

Taiga is ahead of the curve, and I expect Poo & Doo to follow.  It's sort of exciting to see this transformation... sort of

Even at our home/cottage we're transitioning to more electric stuff, chainsaws, weed eaters, Milwaukee (you name it) but haven't succumbed to our vehicles, outboards or sleds yet.

Go see the one in the Hcs general forum if you can still see it. Ram rod went mental in it. Even more mental when deep haven said he would buy a Tesla to try once they build them better than a 1980’s VW lol.

I don’t get the hate with electric. It’s usually just grumpy old fucks that don’t like change. 
 

I haven’t logged on in months over there but I’m reading through the thread now so far basically what I thought bunch of old farts hating electric lol.

Pretty much. They can’t except the fact their is a market for it, it’s been around a long time and it works. It’s now getting to the level where they can sell it a price most people can afford.

Go drive one.  You'll want it.....and will hate the lack of combustion noise.

That being said, the Tesla is such a monstrous piece of shit I think I've decided I am going to grab a CTS-V.  Next car can be electric.

I’d take the CTS-V all day nothing beats that v8 rumble and blower whine those are bad ass cars. I’ve driven a few EVs as well as worked on some. I’ll agree the Tesla is a poorly designed and put together toilet but the model x I drove was pretty damn quick. I’d also never buy a Tesla because they don’t sell you parts so fuck em.

The cts-v is a fun car. My cousin has had one for a long time. I am sure the newer ones are even faster. I know his pulls way harder than my bone stock camaro ss

I like electric stuff, when it makes sense.  Currently not interested in electric cars because they don't make sense for me or appeal to me.  I like high quality stuff and alit of this e power stuff is junk from what I've seen.  I still prefer gas chainsaws and weed whips.  Especially chain saws.

Electric power is good in certain applications but I'm not on board thinking it's much better for the environment or this country than a gas counterpart.  

I remember ramstad was a moron with the e hating.

The e bikes are pretty rad.

Most of us here that 'don't play well with others' can no longer view that forum.

Ah fuck that site let it die ....if it wasnt for the CE and GDF with me and others arguing it would have already been dead months ago. This new rule change and the new faggy Canadian mods will end it . I dont see myself wasting much time over there anymore except for the local VT forum during season

Possibly. If they don’t trip over their dicks in the process.
