Exactly. The emissions dont come out of the muffler instead they come out of a smoke stack at the electric plant, except MORE lol. Its total retardation, costs more, pollutes more.

especially any paid off cars.

my 08 civic was cheap, runs great, gets 40mpg. will likely just be oil changes and little stuff for the next 150k miles and not cost me a dime otherwise.

meanwhile people playing the trade in game and all the hype in expensive new cars are getting hosed 24/7. plus they have to pay full insurance for the bank note.

plus they're good for the planet, which is why they need to strip mine the planet to make them, and send kids into "artisan" mine shafts for cobalt.

EVs are basically golf carts with a limited life span, people buy them to virtue signal or appear cool- most don't give a crap about the environment & all the coal that is burned to charge them...

They are highly inefficient for long distance travel, instead of filling up at a gas station for 2 mins, you need to wait for 2+ hours charging....

Lemme guess- you drive an American car and you live in a trailer. Japanese cars can go 300k miles before any major problem whereas American cars barely leave the dealer lot before roadside assistance is needed. Sauce: my family owned 3 big dealerships one was Ford, Nissan and the other Chevy. Ford and Chevy were constantly being replaced. Junk.

Just wait until you gotta replace your battery. 30 to 40,000 bucks.

If the grid goes down, you can't drive, unless you have an expensive gas generator to charge it yourself which they'll probably outlaw in the near future

yeah my dad is finally coming around after so many fords and he had to do some repair that was stupid and shouldn't have been necessary for the miles and said "come on ford".

hondas and toyotas have earned a solid rep. not perfect, but good quality overall for the price point.

Yep n can u imagine what the effects are on the human bodies inside those cars? It’s all a huge scam! Couldn’t give me a free truckload of those death traps!
