Are electric cars really as good as they say?


Recommended Posts

True facts or the realities of living with an electric car are clouded by the media + industry from my car search .  .  .

 Was quite impressed with Audi's  etron GT R  4 door car!   The realities of distance, cold, AC, heating  are swag estimates.

Battery life expectancies + replacement costs,  no solid answers.

Technology under hood ?  SCARES me, to think about servicing these modern first generation electrics.

HYBRIDS ??? just as 😨 scary to keep .   friends I8 was an electric challenge ( read night mare they couldn't fix) under warranty.

Suburban is a piece of shit...and gas mileage is NOT why you get an electric car.  

Thank you for continually reaffirming that you have the intelligence of an eaten peanut

The modern EV is far simpler than the internal combustion counterpart. The bottle neck with fixing teslas is driven by Elon’s need to control shit. Everything is propriety. There has been some recent loosening of technical data, but there’s still a lot of technical stuff that isn’t available.

I like things that are fast and fun to drive so I'll avoid anything from Textron.

Solid choice there.  They get some serious coin for them.  Probably $12K OTD for one like this.
