Hybrid Camry? Wow, so big, fag
Prius/Lexus CT200h? Wow, what are you, a grandma?
Electric cars are what happens when people are tired of the Prius
Hybrid Civic? Which of your hipster friends are you trying to fuck you limpdick?
Both in terms of bragging about having one and making fun of someone who has one
Well, people do rag tesla because they are expensive. Lol. I will never buy a Prius because of how smug some environmentalist spoke about it to me.
Pretty much the attitude here
Cue obligatory South Park reference
I will never buy a Tesla because of the parts, and the whole “ooooooh it’s saving the world” attitude around it
Nevermind the battery production is worse than anything regular fossil fuels will ever have on its record...
Everyone just owns Civics in Canada
Ugh. You should see the attitude on some of these forums. Tesla is practically a religion for them. Question it and they freak out.
It would be the perfect getaway driver car
@Beemann I heard
I’m not a big fan of Honda’s in general though
More an Audi/Holden kinda guy
There's not enough room in a Tesla if you have testicles
@Deleted User that’s not exactly true, battery production is less impactful than fossil fuels.
@Salacious Swanky Cat oh? Even with the rare earth mining involved?
@Salacious Swanky Cat on a more practical note, I used to work in a panel/body shop before I opened my takeaway, and we had to fix several Tesla’s
@Deleted User yes, mining is involved, but it will ultimately be for less physical material than fossil fuels. Plus it can be recycled. The obnoxious attitudes of ev supporters try to make it sound like nothing happens.
Parts were just high retard in terms of sourcing, each one had to sit in our garage for _at least six months_ before we got anywhere near fixing it
By the time we get the parts, the starter battery would be long dead, ie we had to order them too
Which would take another month or two before we get them
The worst was a car we got in in January 2017; the car was brought back to the customer in April 2018
@Deleted User yes, the success of tesla is definitely questionable because they are nowhere near prime time, but that’s not an indictment of the technology.
Fair enough
But yeah, it’s that side of it that’s convinced me never to get one
Nothing beats the note on a good old V8 or higher engine, too
😛
I’m not buying a Tesla either.
Lol. I personally want people to buy EVs because of the technology’s merit. I don’t want mandates for them. The ev enthusiasts want mandates. I’m concerned about it.
Haha, _wow_
That’s... Huh
Well what do you know, environmentalists being all commie
What a surprise
Yeah. Most people would buy EVs anyways once the infrastructure gets put in place and the cars reduce in price some. Most people (like me) aren’t big car enthusiasts.
It’s all point a to b for me.
@Salacious Swanky Cat right, and people are being turned off of the concept because of idiots
@Deleted User yeah it’s frustrating. I don’t know if you saw my list of grievances earlier, but the enthusiasts may ruin it for everyone if they get in control. No lie.
To clarify, on the whole topic of environmentalism, I don’t see anything wrong with conservation efforts
