      The Real Costs of Electric Car Ownership - CNET

      50+ tropical storms or hurricanes resulting in power outages since Tesla started selling EV's in FL (2012). The red state of FL has the second highest amount of EVs in the US (Cali 1st). If it were a problem, we'd know by now. The media would jump at every opportunity to capture a stranded EV...

      Anyone pick/process/store/eat mulberries?

      Our mulberrys are always super buggy. The 1 year we actually used them for jams and pies, we put in a lot of effort to debug. We would soak them in water for 24 hours, and the bugs would float to the top. Then froze them until we had enough to produce. Now we just let the birds have them so they...

      Zero turn mowers

      Don’t get a John Deere… my z950 70” has broken down each summer the past 4 years. I have to fire up the old Grasshopper 60” and finish each summer with old reliable that stopped recording hours many years ago at 1600.

      Gardening 2022

      Root veggies poppin currently. Turnips, radishes and kohlrabi make a nice raw grouping. Figured out the kohlrabi less than hardball size is best otherwise too woody. Less than golf ball size isn’t ripe. So good with light salt. Orchard and vineyard lookin great! Daily picking blackberry’s early...

      Currently, M3 SR+ rear wheel, and MY LR dual motor. I think of maintenance as the little things I can do to keep all the systems running well, like what I listed. Opening a self contained drive motor or messing with sensors is out of most peoples realm of maintenance (including me). What...

      Don’t jinx me Jay, if I randomly need repairs now you are to blame I shouldn’t have included “repair” in my statement, and understand Rum’s issue better now after clarification, but stand by the maintenance part. My maintenance on my ICE vehicles: Oil/ Air/ fuel/ tranny filters, brake pads/...

      Graphite is purchased from a processing plant in Louisiana, which sources from a mine in Mozambique. You’re right, 10 kilotons of graphite is a substantial amount more.

      Thanks for sharing! Rich’s videos help me better understand your concerns, and I have to admit how much that would suck! He makes good videos too, I will be following.

      Since you attack Tesla(fanboy here), I’ll call out your FUD. Quick searches prove all your issues incorrect, but spreading Fear, Uncertainty, & Doubt is typical and understandable during change. 1) 100% Tesla lithium from Australia and Argentina(per impact report). Chile mines the most by far...

      1) More vulnerable to sensor based applications damage. 2) parts are more likely to be replaced than repaired 3) Parts are more expensive 4) Considered totaled more often, probably due to parts cost, time to repair, technician skill level, etc. Once the market evolves to be more competitive...

      A couple real costs that don’t get mentioned much include higher insurance premiums (mine is at least 50% higher), and annual EV registration fee of $150. Elon is working on lowering cost of Tesla insurance out west, but will take years to expand to Indiana.

      Winchester mystery house

      We loved the Winchester House Ghost tour, great day/evening stop when we were RVing out west a few years ago. Looking back on our pics we captured a spirit of a little lady in a dress on the elevator. Everyone remembers the elevator being empty.

      You got me!, I do love my EV's, as the family is on their 4th currently. Sorry if I come off abrasive when I refute some of the nonsense posted, I'm used to convincing friends to give them a try. Sounds like an EV might not be right for you currently, although a Mad Max decked out EV would be...

      Because people take 2000 mile trips so often, darn EVs are so impractical.

      Surprised the article didn’t include cost of replacement after spontaneous combustion; as he lazily references the other false narratives debunked 10 years ago. At least experience an EV before digging thru the internet for neg rep.
