I mean I don't race to a red light and I think I drive efficiently since it's my job and do 1200+ miles a week..But you seem to be in disbelief even when I did simple math?? BJ's gas is 4.63/gal says it right there at the top of the pic...and at 20mpg it comes out to .23/mile, but you wanted it to be more than double that?? That's kinda weird dude, it's a mathematical fact and you are in disbelief.. really really weird..

EV’s are for the well off and if you are looking to spend $4-5k you are going to be buying something pretty fucking pos that isn’t an EV Do they have an option pkg. of hearing the sound of a V8 or V10 going through the speakers when you accelerate..... cause those sounds are priceless. 2 hours ago, Rigid1 said: Oh gotcha, so owning a ev is not feasible for the average person or a new driver.. Oh I got him a mint 02 Toyota 4runner with 102k for miles for $2500, 4wd, no rust, everything works, no leaks, had to do an EVAP canister and it's all good...Far from a POS.. Wow...you got a steal on that. Can never go wrong with the Yota.... my brother got 422K miles out of his Rav 4 1 hour ago, BOHICA said: People always use their best ever achieved mileage to calculate what they tell everybody they get all the time. Most vehicles have lifetime mpg and will tell you what they have gotten. Even then it’s computer optimistic mpg. your truck probably has averaged 15-16 mpg over its live. 13.4 average on pretty much all my cars.....still no interest in an EV Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fuck I just showed you my odometer and went 2 miles up to the gas station and back and increased my mpg..It is 40mph Infront of my house..I do have significantly lighter wheels, tires, and brakes on my truck,..so less rotational mass,.. TBH, but then again that 28mpg was with the old wheels, tires, and brakes, and a Yamaha Nytro in the bed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s a setting in your gauge…. 25-30 of it will be at 40 mph without a trailer on Sunday and 25-20 that will be towing a trailer on Friday/Saturday.
